Hello! This is Rintaro, a member of the Renai Naito staff*.

Today, we are happy to announce that a space that Rene’s people have been dreaming about for years will open in July!
Rune’s cafe “Rune de Petitrier” will open in “World Porters” in Yokohama Minato Mirai!

RUNE's Room vol.03

We have always thought that the KAWAII world of Renée Naito would fit well in a café, so we are very happy to be able to open our long-awaited Rune café this year, which marks the 70th anniversary of Renée’s debut. This café is a collaboration project with the wonderful sweets brand Petitrier. If you are on Instagram, please take a peek! (The account is @petitrier☆)

The logo and interior are particular. This time, fruit motifs that René drew in several different colors and the René girl design were used for the interior.

The menu features many French-inspired dishes with croissants and fruits. We hope you will have a blissful time enjoying our delicious croissants in the Kawaii space of Renai.
We hope to provide you with more photos of our menu as we go along. I’m not sure how much I can tell you with pictures, but of course, they are very delicious!

This time, we have introduced you to Renai Cafe.
