I felt like I'd grown up in that mansion with Iori taking care of me from childhood😂 🔻Japanese Theme Park Playlist ua-cam.com/play/PL8s0IirUamebmQgV9mBGjhVivIejyHg1H.html
Yes, usually filming is prohibited in a butler cafe but, I obtained permission in advance, on the condition that it would be outside of business hours when there were no other guests present. Thank you for watching☺️
@@its_time_to_travel The Head Butler(?) said you had forgotten some of the house rules. What did you do wrong? Was it asking Lori why he became a butler? Was that to personal?
@@fat13hero this part, tired of somebody trying to scratch into my ear and or whisper so I can't hear anything or talk in my left ear then right ear back n forth like come on already sheesh
Iori-san is such a gentleman. So polite, kind and elegant that really make us customers feel like miladies and masters. For fangirls like myself is a thrilling experience. 🤭
@@KimchiYeo I understood 17 x) You can see that he's no longer in his twenties or even thirties but he looks cute. I did prefer the other man haha I was bold enough to watch without subtitles so I might missed up some pieces
"Why would they die of embarrassment? It's just a scon-" *gets to the scone part of the video and FUCKING DIES OF EMBARRASSMENT AND I'M NOT EVEN THERE* my sensitive ass would've turned red and teary eyed
Omg, why did he draw attention to it? I thought he was going to offer to break the other scone for you, but no, he just came over to politely chastise you over it. "Luckily no one saw!" You sassy little man!
For anyone watching who thinks that the butlers are creepier than necessary, there's a video on CDawgVA's channel featuring the same place. They're more candid and relaxed there. It's just that Time to Travel doesn't speak in her ASMR videos, so their interactions just don't translate as well. Also, I believe the scolding part is meant to be playful. You have to keep in mind that the conversation has to be translated, and Japanese language doesn't have the same inflections as English.
I know they are just being cheeky but I'd be already so embarrassed by all the attention just walking in, that a scone shaming would have me dead lmao. Lori was so kind and sweet though! I don't think i could handle being called master/milady and treated like royalty, It'd be so strange! I'm just a nobody sahm. I am a tiny human's personal napkin and butt wiper lmao
@@roguecyndaquil I know this is a late response but just wanted to say you're not a "nobody". You're a mom, that makes you that tiny human's everything.❤
It warms my heart to see Iori still there! It gives me a sense of nostalgia despite never having been there before simply due to seeing him in several UA-cam videos over the years.
He’s as pleasant in person as he is in video and the cafe is an amazing experience. I went several times when I lived in Tokyo and I’ve even got an Iori keychain 😊
I went to this same cafe several years ago with my friend and my husband. My poor husband got up to use the restroom and it was back in this little hallway. When he came out, a girl sitting at one of the other tables was standing at the entrance of the hallway and blocking him from going past. She was wearing a really elaborate red gown that took up the whole hallway and seemed to be really into the whole experience. Meanwhile, I'm pretty sure my husband thought that we were just going out to grab an afternoon snack and I dragged him into this place... To give you an idea of him, his favorite time of year is fall because that's when American college football season starts. Anyway. Hubby didn't know a word of Japanese and this girl was clearly waiting for one of the butlers to come escort her. He's desperately staring at me like wth do I do bc no one's coming to get this girl back to her seat and I'm gesturing like, dude, give her your arm and take her there yourself if you're so desperate to come back and watch our butler sweat through his suit because he lost at rock-paper-scissors and got stuck with the gaijin table. Finally, someone noticed and handled it. Then, at the end, they stopped us from leaving and the gentleman at the front was radio-ing to someone and I thought, oh god, did we not pay the bill right or something, but then a gaggle of butlers came up with a linen-lined silver tray upon which there sat... a gross, dirty American penny one of us must have dropped on the floor by accident at our table. Overall, a surreal afternoon. A++ service!! Would go again.
I am sure gaijin don't scare the butlers so much. Me and my friends (all gaijin) used to go there all the time. We even got special gift like for our 10th visit and stuff like that. We always had a great experience. (However, we were all fluent in Japanese so there is that. 😊) One time, we were the very last table to leave and all of the butlers lined up in two rows as each gave us a very respectful "goodbye" as we walked through the middle. It was awesome Our group consisted of me (a black girl), a chinese american, a muslim, and a VERY tall white girl. The most they did was ask if we wanted a menu in English 😊 Also, I am suprised they opened in 2006. I moved to Japan in 2008. That would mean I have been going there practically since the beginning! (Until i moved in 2010)
Iori-san looks like he managed to find the fountain of youth and drink from it. He looks the same as when he did in a different Swallowtail video years ago. And he's just as sweet and polite as I remember.
Well, he is Japanese.. I swear, people here don't age.. I went to Japan for the first time 12 years ago and while my Japanese friends still look exactly the same, I'm the only one who's aged.. So unfair..😒
I went there at least three times around 2013-2015 and to see Iori-san is still there serving tea gives me a strange feeling, like the place is suspended in time... This video got me nostalgic, I didn't think I'd see Swallowtail again!
Went to this cafe in 2019 and got what was probably a rookie butler and it was the funniest experience ever! The entire time, the butler was fighting giggles with us and towards the end of the service, finally broke down laughing. I’m sure it was because we were so enthused about the whole place (we could be a handful lol). It was such a fun and relaxed experience and they did their best to speak English with a friend who didn’t understand Japanese, which was so sweet. Also gave her an English menu. We did have to ring a bell to use the restroom and ring that same bell to have our tea poured and food served. It was a great time. Would definitely go back if I could get a reservation. 😂
It's nice seeing Lori is still there. I remember seeing a video about this cafe years ago. I wanted to go, but watching this made me realise- the undivided attention would make me flustered and I would try and do everything myself.
Haha same I get awkward at a regular restaurant like saying thank you when they start to fill up the water and saying thank you after they fill up the water and just generally being really awkward about being waited on
I'm glad somebody picked up on the fact that these Japanese butler and maid cafes have a ASMR quality to them. I enjoy watching these videos for that reason.
Just so people understand the etiquette you never use a knife to open a scone. Ever. It’s always broken open by hand. If you cannot open it, it’s the chefs fault. Also when you are sitting at a table you never pick your saucer up with your teacup, only by itself. If you’re standing and you’re offered tea then you are expected to hold the saucer.
I knew about this café from a long time ago, but this is the first time I've got to see the butlers in action! Also, I knew Iori from some pictures I've seen in the past, but I'd never imagined how actually funny he can be! He's right though: a lady should be aware of how precious her possesions are, and carelessly leaving them around is unladylike! XD Oh, so the cups are selected to match your current outfit? What a nice touch... the porcelain and the paintwork looked very dainty and lovely!
Iori from the videos I've seen is one of the best butlers hands down. However he seems like the only one I see other than Kawaga. Iori has the best attention to detail and craft. I kind of wish Swallowtail would come back to the states like they did for Matsuri the one year. I could see them at Anime Expo for sure. < 3 Either way the idea of a butler cafe is perfect. Wish more existed, but Swallowtail is the only one I know thus far in Japan. Closest might be the vampire cafe. XD
I love that full tea set. My mother and I had something like that when we went to a place called The Mad Hatter's in Anoka, MN. The tea list there was quite extensive, so it was a great experience all around. I love how proper the butlers were behaving. The contrast with the maids is actually quite interesting given the role of butlers and maids in both western and eastern households. Maids were usually the ones in charge of looking after the kids and are sometimes even chatting up the lady of the house...hence why the maids at the cafe are always so high energy. Meanwhile, the butler was the one who is usually trying to maintain a sense of order and properness in the house...hence why we see the butlers here acting with a sense of directness and poise. It really does give the feel of enjoying a high class tea or meal.
i took my best friend to have high tea at the Empress Hotel in Victoria BC, it was so nice! It's in my last vlog on my channel if you're interested! Mad Hatter's - great name! I think that would be my kind of place!
@@IzzyOnTheMove Well, if you ever come to Minnesota, I would definitely recommend it. Mind you...the full tea will require 24 hours in advance if you do get a chance to come out here.
Children were looked after by a nanny or a nurse and if she had any assistant it was a nurserymaid who as a rule did not do other work. Other maids were not in charge of childcare but maybe in a small house with many young children one might be borrowed to push a pram. I don't know where you come from but chatting up in English where I come from, and everywhere else I've heard it used, means talk to with intent to have sexual intercourse with and that was not a maid's duty to the ladies of the house.
@@igrim4777 I meant "chatting up" as in "gossiping". I have heard there was sometimes casual conversation with the lady of the house, usually regarding something they heard in town while running chores, though...am I mistaken?
@@igrim4777 Where I live (CA, USA), that phrase can mean speaking to someone energetically, or in a friendly manner, etc. It can be used in regard to being flirtatious, but that is by no means the only context it's used in.
I love when Iori comes back to roast you about breaking the scones, and the 'lost ring', a sense of humor is always refreshing in a place like this😂❤ I cant wait to visit myself
Oh wow! I wasn't expecting you to do a video at Swallowtail! Nice to see Iori is still there (reminds me of CDawgVA's video where he was a butler for the day and Iori was teaching him everything). As fun as the maid cafes are, the butler cafes definitely seem to have a more calming and sophisticated atmosphere, which I myself would probably prefer. I really want some jasmine tea now.
IORI-SAN!!! His smile is so blinding I would have been perished slowly in my seat. If I was there, I would have make a fool of myself, pretty sure embarrass not only me but everyone else lol. He's such a gentle and warm person, you're so lucky to have him as your butler. Such a great experience tho! thank you for the ASMR video. OH and your nails are sooo pretty ❤
I really liked the butler you got! He has such kind/friendly eyes. I would've felt a little awkward there by myself honestly lol! Those pastry/tea cakes looked so good. Yum! Thanks for asking how long he's been working there. No wonder he's so good at being a butler lol! 16 years is a long time. 🙂 They must get great tips as well. 🌹🌷
I have only visited Japan twice in my lifetime..and have headed straight to the Swallowtail cafe. Lori has always been my favorite footman. He reminds me of Kyonya in the "Oran host club" anime!! So handsome and his perfect posture is very attractive!
I went here in 2015 and it was one of the highlights of my trip! I remember I had finished a cup of tea and went to pour myself some more, and a butler appeared as if out of nowhere to do it for me. ^_^
Lori’s english was quite good. Thank you for taking us to the Cafe. It was a lovely. The butlers were handsome and inviting. Surly this is a gem and must do in Japan.
I went to a butler cafe with my friends. I love their services but I'm so nervous that I accidently snapped my cake to the floor, my friends and the butler laugh so hard 😢 I was sooooo embarassed until now but it was a fun experience!
These theme cafes are always an amazing thing to witness. Big props to all of the hard working people there, it's not an easy job but it is one that brings smiles to many in a world that seems to get even worse day by day... Much love and respect ❤
As an English person who has frequented traditional tea rooms like the famous Betty's in Harrogate, I must commend the high tea selection and presentation, though it has a Japanese flavour to it, most of it wouldn't look out of place at all, especially the scones and finger sandwiches. It's easier to cut the scone in half with a knife, and put a thin layer of butter on first (I didn't see the butter on your plate) which acts like a base, then a layer of jam and then cream. I think it might seem less intense if there were other guests having the same experience, at the same time, the attention would make me feel a bit awkward especially with eating, Butlers are meant to be non intrusive and discreet lol. Fascinating though.
Yes, Japan knows how to surprise me. You enter such establishments and relax like that, it's just amazing. Thank you for a wonderful walk. Thank you so much.
I think my own politeness might get in the way even if it is roleplay, LOL. Every time Iori-San said “I have kept you waiting,” I thought “not at all!” And when he hands you the plates that are already there and pours more tea from the pot in front of you, I think I would feel incredibly lazy not doing those things by myself. Butlers go above and beyond, that’s for sure.
I went there with my friend a couple of months ago!! What surprised me the most was their professionalism and also the food was SO delicious, worth every dollar!!!
Finally had time to finish this video~ There are many videos on this Butler cafe, so I'm happy to see a new, POV take of it! Glad that Iori is still the face of the cafe~ Big fan of that guy
If I was a little kid, little embarrassing moment does nothing BUT as a grown woman, I might suddenly have the skill to become clumsy and fluster all the time if I go there..😂😅 totally into my wishlist.
So glad so see Iori keeping the place so greatly after so many years... I wish they can keep it forever❤ I wonder if Shiina is still working there. I loved to see him with Iori in other youtubers videos!
This seems so strange, I would find it way too intense. I've never seen butlers smile so much, I think that is what I'm finding so intense- too much smiling 😆 Thank you for another fantastic video! x
@@QueenMarieAntoinette-tp1wx I believe it's a roleplay thing. In most otome (girl-oriented storytelling) games, butlers also often act as etiquette teachers, especially toward masters and mistresses that they've served from childhood. And I think he intended to deliver that scolding in a playful way. He emphasized the fact that they were lucky no one was watching. His intent probably just doesn't translate well to the English translation and intonations.
Thank you for another wonderful video. This place looks so nice. Iori has very kind eyes and seems so caring. I also really liked the short part at the beginning showing the festival. Thank you for including the giant statue of Ultraman! I love that show and a few years ago i had the pleasure of meeting Bin Furuya who playes Ultraman.
WOW, the entire place was booked for the day! And you also got to film while it was completely empty!? There definitely has to be some kind of special arrangement for that, right?
Usually, filming is prohibited in a butler cafe. However, I obtained permission in advance, on the condition that it would be outside of business hours when there were no other guests present. Thank you for watching☺️
This is so fun! It’s like we are enjoying the real setting from an actual tea cafe with fancy butlers serving us as if we are returning home from far away! I love it ❤!
Incredible calm atmosphere, unlike the extremely loud maid video (too much talk and energy for my own good), i would visit a place like this probably, just because i like the Butler theme more.
I would simply cease to exist. The moment I entered the establishment I would be flustered and feel like a FL straight out of a Shojo. They're THAT good at their jobs.
I haven't been to a butler cafe (yet) because I'd feel awkward about going on my own and getting all that attention. But watching these videos, I feel like they are very different from maid cafés as well (haven't been to one of those either though). Maid cafes seem much more high energy and cutesy while this feels very relaxed and elegant. I'd love to go someday when I find someone to go with me.
🇸🇰🇸🇰 Šialené video, ako z inej planéty 😉. Máte pre nás "bláznivé veci". V našej krajine takéto niečo nemáme. Som veľmi rada, že ste sa rozhodli o ne s nami podeliť. Úplne som pri tom pozeraní vypla a transportovala sa. 😅 Neskutočné. Ďakujeme vám veľmi pekne za Slovenské titulky ❤️❤️
Raised in the South of the US, manners are instilled in you and not something you forget or forsake. So, this lovely place, as well as all of your beautiful country, would be a dream to visit!
This place is something I only could have dreamed of because I had to listen again when he said "How about trying a tea that I have prepared myself". I have never heard of a waiter (butler in this case), that will make the drink you want themselves. I don't travel, but thankfully to channels like this, I can see what it is like and these places seem amazing and worth the money.
Oh man, I used to go here a lot when I lived there! The first time I went, I was SO nervous I was shaking because I was never waited on like this before and never been in such an environment (I used to get super nervous in new environments). I even told my butler that and he whispered to me, "No need to be nervous! You can enjoy your time how you like!" and after that I really felt so calm. I'm also vegetarian, so they were so kind to accomodate me for the dinner menu once, and let me know if there was anything that had any meat in it...one of my favorite places to go! It's extremely delicious!
Do you think vegan would be doable though? I've never been to Japan but I keep hearing that you can basically only go to vegan specific places only since they're not really used to accomodating special dietary needs.
I felt like I'd grown up in that mansion with Iori taking care of me from childhood😂

@@igrim4777 I meant "chatting up" as in "gossiping". I have heard there was sometimes casual conversation with the lady of the house, usually regarding something they heard in town while running chores, though...am I mistaken?
@@igrim4777 Where I live (CA, USA), that phrase can mean speaking to someone energetically, or in a friendly manner, etc. It can be used in regard to being flirtatious, but that is by no means the only context it's used in.
すっごい上品…一つ一つの所作がプロ！！
I like his fun conversation with the scone breaking. His eyes and manner are so kind and lovely.
I love when Iori comes back to roast you about breaking the scones, and the 'lost ring', a sense of humor is always refreshing in a place like this😂❤ I cant wait to visit myself
Oh wow! I wasn't expecting you to do a video at Swallowtail! Nice to see Iori is still there (reminds me of CDawgVA's video where he was a butler for the day and Iori was teaching him everything). As fun as the maid cafes are, the butler cafes definitely seem to have a more calming and sophisticated atmosphere, which I myself would probably prefer.
I really want some jasmine tea now.
The maids are too much, just extra af.
Iori's still there😭😭 I miss him so much, i was there 4 years ago! He's such a gentleman♡ Thank you for the video!!
What happened to the old butler's?
良いですねぇ、落ち着いた動きと明瞭な語り口。そして笑顔。これなら家族で行っても安心ですね。
IORI-SAN!!! His smile is so blinding I would have been perished slowly in my seat. If I was there, I would have make a fool of myself, pretty sure embarrass not only me but everyone else lol. He's such a gentle and warm person, you're so lucky to have him as your butler. Such a great experience tho! thank you for the ASMR video. OH and your nails are sooo pretty ❤
I really liked the butler you got! He has such kind/friendly eyes. I would've felt a little awkward there by myself honestly lol! Those pastry/tea cakes looked so good. Yum! Thanks for asking how long he's been working there. No wonder he's so good at being a butler lol! 16 years is a long time. 🙂 They must get great tips as well. 🌹🌷
この執事カフェのケーキが
東急ハンズの前で
たまたまケーキフェアをやってた時があってこの執事喫茶も
出店してたんですけど
確かに
めちゃくちゃ美味しかったです！
店の世界観もめっちゃ素敵ですね、
普通に異世界の住人になるような感覚で
行ってみたいです
I have only visited Japan twice in my lifetime..and have headed straight to the Swallowtail cafe. Lori has always been my favorite footman. He reminds me of Kyonya in the "Oran host club" anime!! So handsome and his perfect posture is very attractive!
He does remind me of Ootori now that you think about it
I went here in 2015 and it was one of the highlights of my trip! I remember I had finished a cup of tea and went to pour myself some more, and a butler appeared as if out of nowhere to do it for me. ^_^
Wow they really do everything for you. I would be too embarrassed to ring him many times 😂
How can he talk and smile at the same time for the entire period?!
旅する時間さんがスワロウテイルに行くとは✨
執事のドラマで人気がでた場所ですよね😊
当時は予約待ちが何ヶ月も先で行きたかったけど行けなかった場所なので擬似体験できて嬉しいです！
緊張して紅茶の味とか分からないまま終わりそうですがw一度は経験してみたいので今度勇気を出して予約をしてみます😊
Iori is adorable. The ambiance and food look amazing! BTW, I LOVE your nails! So pretty.
I love Iori. He's so polite and charming. 🥰
Lori’s english was quite good. Thank you for taking us to the Cafe. It was a lovely. The butlers were handsome and inviting. Surly this is a gem and must do in Japan.
I went to a butler cafe with my friends. I love their services but I'm so nervous that I accidently snapped my cake to the floor, my friends and the butler laugh so hard 😢 I was sooooo embarassed until now but it was a fun experience!
I love how the video is super quiet and in 1st person POV so I can fully listen and enjoy the experience.
These theme cafes are always an amazing thing to witness. Big props to all of the hard working people there, it's not an easy job but it is one that brings smiles to many in a world that seems to get even worse day by day... Much love and respect ❤
As an English person who has frequented traditional tea rooms like the famous Betty's in Harrogate, I must commend the high tea selection and presentation, though it has a Japanese flavour to it, most of it wouldn't look out of place at all, especially the scones and finger sandwiches.
It's easier to cut the scone in half with a knife, and put a thin layer of butter on first (I didn't see the butter on your plate) which acts like a base, then a layer of jam and then cream.
I think it might seem less intense if there were other guests having the same experience, at the same time, the attention would make me feel a bit awkward especially with eating, Butlers are meant to be non intrusive and discreet lol.
Fascinating though.
Yes, Japan knows how to surprise me. You enter such establishments and relax like that, it's just amazing. Thank you for a wonderful walk. Thank you so much.
I think my own politeness might get in the way even if it is roleplay, LOL. Every time Iori-San said “I have kept you waiting,” I thought “not at all!” And when he hands you the plates that are already there and pours more tea from the pot in front of you, I think I would feel incredibly lazy not doing those things by myself. Butlers go above and beyond, that’s for sure.
I went there with my friend a couple of months ago!! What surprised me the most was their professionalism and also the food was SO delicious, worth every dollar!!!
What strikes me the most is the pace and the (amount of) space, just watching this POV feels sooo chill and relaxed wow!
Thank you very much for this awesome video and for the subtitles too. It was excellent. Congratulations!👍😊
Iori-san is so polite and patient!!! Thanks for uploading this!! I feel like I would be so nervous at a place like this 😂
一切噛まずに話せるところ、伊織さんすごい、、、
マジそれなです。
歌ってるPVの伊織さんも素敵です。公式UA-camから一部だけど見れます！
Finally had time to finish this video~ There are many videos on this Butler cafe, so I'm happy to see a new, POV take of it! Glad that Iori is still the face of the cafe~ Big fan of that guy
If I was a little kid, little embarrassing moment does nothing BUT as a grown woman, I might suddenly have the skill to become clumsy and fluster all the time if I go there..😂😅 totally into my wishlist.
So glad so see Iori keeping the place so greatly after so many years... I wish they can keep it forever❤ I wonder if Shiina is still working there. I loved to see him with Iori in other youtubers videos!
Shiina is still here! Thank you for watching☺️

About time we get Butlers! It's only fair!
? theyve have butler and host cafes for decades lol
@@nefariouspersephone9447 Not that it's ever really known to people in the States.😒 This was the first time I ever saw it.
This seems so strange, I would find it way too intense. I've never seen butlers smile so much, I think that is what I'm finding so intense- too much smiling 😆 Thank you for another fantastic video! x
I didn't see the point of him shaming her for how she ate the scone. A proper butler would never dream of correcting the lady he was serving.
@@QueenMarieAntoinette-tp1wx I believe it's a roleplay thing. In most otome (girl-oriented storytelling) games, butlers also often act as etiquette teachers, especially toward masters and mistresses that they've served from childhood. And I think he intended to deliver that scolding in a playful way. He emphasized the fact that they were lucky no one was watching. His intent probably just doesn't translate well to the English translation and intonations.
Thank you for another wonderful video. This place looks so nice. Iori has very kind eyes and seems so caring.
I also really liked the short part at the beginning showing the festival. Thank you for including the giant statue of Ultraman! I love that show and a few years ago i had the pleasure of meeting Bin Furuya who playes Ultraman.
Mr. Iori must love his job! He's been there for a little while and has cute smile. The cafe is very pretty and the food looks so good too!
WOW, the entire place was booked for the day! And you also got to film while it was completely empty!? There definitely has to be some kind of special arrangement for that, right?
Usually, filming is prohibited in a butler cafe. However, I obtained permission in advance, on the condition that it would be outside of business hours when there were no other guests present. Thank you for watching☺️
@@its_time_to_travel Oh, I see, thank you!
@@its_time_to_travelя очень мечтаю побыть в вашем кафе,живу в Германии ❤
ネイルアートはとても可愛くて素敵です、お嬢様🥰
レベル高すぎて男子でも惚れる
Lori-san looks so cute and polite. He is always smiling!
This is so fun! It’s like we are enjoying the real setting from an actual tea cafe with fancy butlers serving us as if we are returning home from far away! I love it ❤!
Man this felt so tingly to listen to! Almost like ASMR :)
I definitely enjoyed this demonstration of a butler cafe in Japan!
I LOVED seeing this! I visited in 2014 and Iori was my butler. :) It was a wonderful experience. Thanks for bringing me back. :D
Ahhh I like the asmr version! It feels like vr, like I’m really in the café❤😊
I couldn’t do it I’m blushing so badly just from seeing them!! Even though it’s a video, I’m getting all bashful 😂😅
Very nice! I like the way you used POV shots. It's like we're really there! 💖
Nagyon örülök, hogy rátaláltam a csatornára :) Minden videó egyszerűen elrepít japánba. Csak így tovább és köszönjük a magyar feliratot. ❤🇭🇺
14:39 "only a little bit" Liar! Mr. Iori is a FANTASTIC English speaker!
I think my face would hurt from smiling too much😆💙 This is too cute
Incredible calm atmosphere, unlike the extremely loud maid video (too much talk and energy for my own good), i would visit a place like this probably, just because i like the Butler theme more.
Iori is quite the conversationalist 😆👍
やはり日本の雰囲気は違います。
台湾の地下街にも執事やメイドカフェがありますが。🍵🍰
3回しか行っていませんが、興味があれば台湾に遊びに来てください。😊
上品さが落ち着きます😊✨
どんな｢やつ｣ｗ 無茶振りで急に地が出てきた
He walks with such poise! Look at his amazing posture..
So cute with the scolding about the scones. Thanks that had me laughing for a while. You are incredibly graceful.
PS, love your nails, simply beautiful.
Really well done. Love how you are quite this whole video, the best kinda of UA-cam videos. Thanks for sharing!
I’m planning a trip to Japan for next year and this is on my must-visit list! 🥰
We will always support you. Keep working hard as always.
Thank you so much!!!!!!🥺💓
그 일본인 유튜버 시리즈 많이 봐서 이오리 엄청 반갑네 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ방긋방긋 잘 웃어주시는구나
I would simply cease to exist. The moment I entered the establishment I would be flustered and feel like a FL straight out of a Shojo. They're THAT good at their jobs.
I haven't been to a butler cafe (yet) because I'd feel awkward about going on my own and getting all that attention. But watching these videos, I feel like they are very different from maid cafés as well (haven't been to one of those either though). Maid cafes seem much more high energy and cutesy while this feels very relaxed and elegant. I'd love to go someday when I find someone to go with me.
Why is my heart pounding so hard?!? ❤❤❤
I bet you fell in love with Iori 🤭
@@harunatsu6756those glasses and suit. Yes 😅
🇸🇰🇸🇰 Šialené video, ako z inej planéty 😉. Máte pre nás "bláznivé veci". V našej krajine takéto niečo nemáme. Som veľmi rada, že ste sa rozhodli o ne s nami podeliť. Úplne som pri tom pozeraní vypla a transportovala sa. 😅 Neskutočné. Ďakujeme vám veľmi pekne za Slovenské titulky ❤️❤️
I finally found a great POV channel that could make me really feel in the video😍
I couldn't stop smiling while watching this, like I was being stared at by the butler. If I were you, I would probably run home😂😂
Wow the cafe is beautiful ❤
Good traveling 😊
Thank you for watching😍✨

懐かしい〜。上京したての時にお友達と行きました。行くまでに迷ってしまって、電話で迷ってしまったから予約に遅れるかもって連絡したらめちゃくちゃ丁寧に道案内してくれたのを覚えてる😢そこから既に執事で感動した。。。
あと友達が御手洗行く時わざわざ執事さん1人着いてってくれてて笑った笑
This gives me Sebastian vibes hahaha (Kuro fans will understand 🖤)
Kisses from Brazil 🇧🇷
Raised in the South of the US, manners are instilled in you and not something you forget or forsake. So, this lovely place, as well as all of your beautiful country, would be a dream to visit!
Lori is so cute my god, haha. He probably looks a bit different 16 to 17 years ago... Cant believe he has been working there for that long!
How wonderful. Such beautiful service.
Oh cool, I watched videos about them a few years ago. Didn't know they're still in business! It makes me happy to see this! 💗
First time watching a vlog with luxurious butlers theme cafe 😮 feels like a boss there 😂
I rarely would come to this place, but it was fun to watch. Thank you for sharing
이오리상 능력좋은 집사인가봐요
다른 일본유투버님 집사카페편에서도

여기 갔었는데 그때도 이오리상 ㅋㅋㅋ
This place is something I only could have dreamed of because I had to listen again when he said "How about trying a tea that I have prepared myself". I have never heard of a waiter (butler in this case), that will make the drink you want themselves. I don't travel, but thankfully to channels like this, I can see what it is like and these places seem amazing and worth the money.
Oh man, I used to go here a lot when I lived there!
The first time I went, I was SO nervous I was shaking because I was never waited on like this before and never been in such an environment (I used to get super nervous in new environments). I even told my butler that and he whispered to me, "No need to be nervous! You can enjoy your time how you like!" and after that I really felt so calm.
I'm also vegetarian, so they were so kind to accomodate me for the dinner menu once, and let me know if there was anything that had any meat in it...one of my favorite places to go! It's extremely delicious!
Do you think vegan would be doable though? I've never been to Japan but I keep hearing that you can basically only go to vegan specific places only since they're not really used to accomodating special dietary needs.
