Living in Portland, OR, you’re exposed to a wide variety of cafe styles. There are the student cafes, where coffee is dirt cheap and stressed 20-somethings spend hours camping out on their laptops.

While rabbit cafes have popped up all over Japan – 12 or so opened in the last year alone! – it will be a bit longer, I think, before people scurry to replicate Japan’s reptile cafe experience.
