Wood Design Park Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, Representative Director: Daiki Suzuki), which operates the unmanned cafe "Selfcafe," with over 60 locations nationwide and monthly users exceeding 80,000, will grand open its new "Selfcafe Aeon Town Higashiosaka" on July 1, 2026, within Aeon Town Higashiosaka in Higashiosaka City, Osaka Prefecture.

Selfcafe is a cafe brand that operates nationwide as an unmanned cafe where customers can stay for unlimited time with the purchase of one drink, equipped with power outlets and Wi-Fi.

No reception or membership registration is required; simply purchase a drink and use the facilities without worrying about time for work, study, or breaks.

The newly opening "Selfcafe Aeon Town Higashiosaka" is a new store located within the commercial facility "Aeon Town Higashiosaka." We aim to be a store that can be easily used in various everyday scenes, such as for breaks before or after shopping, during waiting times, for students studying, or for professionals working on their PCs.

What is Selfcafe?

"Selfcafe" is a completely unmanned operation cafe that anyone can easily use without conversing with staff, and requires no reception or membership registration.

Customers can use the facilities for unlimited time with the purchase of one drink, and the interior is fully equipped with power outlets and Wi-Fi.

As more people use cafes as workspaces for remote work, side jobs, or studying for qualifications, we have been developing it as a cafe that is easy to use for work and study.

It does not require membership registration or monthly contracts like a co-working space, and can be easily visited when needed.

Features of Selfcafe

No Membership Registration Required

Selfcafe is an unmanned cafe that does not require reception or membership registration.

No app registration or monthly contracts are necessary, making it easy for first-time users to visit.

It can be used as a convenient stop during daily life, such as during shopping trips or free time.

Unlimited Time with One Drink Purchase

Selfcafe can be used without time limits with the purchase of one drink. Unlike typical co-working spaces that charge by the hour, customers can use the facilities by simply purchasing a drink, allowing them to spend time studying, working on their PCs, reading, or resting without worrying about the clock.

Work Environment Equipped with Power Outlets and Wi-Fi

The store is equipped with power outlets and Wi-Fi.

It provides an environment that is easy to use as a daily workspace for charging smartphones, working on PCs, creating documents, online work, or studying for qualifications.

Located within Aeon Town Higashiosaka

"Selfcafe Aeon Town Higashiosaka" will open within the commercial facility "Aeon Town Higashiosaka" located in Higashikonoike-cho, Higashiosaka City, Osaka Prefecture.

By opening within a commercial facility, we aim to create a store that can be easily used in daily life, such as for breaks before or after shopping, during waiting times, or while waiting for family members.

It also accommodates a wide range of usage scenarios, from short breaks to long periods of time, serving as a study space for students, a workspace for professionals, a place for a quick rest, or for charging smartphones.

Store Design for Easy Use with an External Drink Machine

In this store, the drink machine is installed on the exterior side.

This store design makes it easy to understand for first-time users and easy to purchase drinks, aiming to be an even more accessible unmanned cafe.

The Ease of Selfcafe

Selfcafe is an unmanned cafe that can be used without membership registration, unlike conventional cafes or co-working spaces.

The usage method is simple: purchase a drink and then use the seat.

- No need to worry about time spent at the seat - Can be used without the feeling of being watched by staff - Usage fee is only for one drink - No membership or app registration required - Can use power outlets and Wi-Fi

This ease of use makes it a convenient place not only for studying or working but also for resting during shopping or during waiting times.

Selfcafe Proposes "Second Desk"

Selfcafe proposes the concept of a "Second Desk" as another place to work that can be used daily, separate from home, work, or school.

As working and learning styles diversify, more people are seeking places to concentrate outside of their homes.

However, conventional cafes often face issues such as being crowded with no available seats, limited power outlets, or difficulty in staying for long periods.

Selfcafe provides an easy-to-use workspace in daily life by offering the convenience of unlimited time with one drink purchase and a work environment equipped with power outlets and Wi-Fi.

"Selfcafe Aeon Town Higashiosaka" will serve as a familiar second desk for local residents to use during their shopping trips or free time.
