★★★★★ 5.0 Linda Hunt · Jan 2026

I was happy that there were only 6 of us. It was easy to “share the love” with all of the animals. This experience was so much fun! Mae was the employee that was with us and she was great at her job and well informed! The animals were fun and adorable, and it was fun to feed and hold them! I definitely want my grandchildren to have this experience one day! I recommend it!

This made my birthday feel special! Everyone was nice and the groups are small so everyone can hold every animal. I did the one-hour experience with capybara and friends. We saw three capybara‘s prairie dog, fennec, fox, Guinea pig hedgehog, deer, and armadillo. They gave us lettuce and carrots to feed the animals. It was a lot of fun watching the fox run around and play with its ball and spend time learning about the animals.

It was so much fun getting to spend time with the capybara and other critters. Highly recommend for animals lovers. My 8 yr old daughter love it too, so don't hesitate to bring your animal loving kiddos! We will definitely go back!

We had a wonderful time at Capyfriends Cafe. This was a surprise visit for our grandson's upcoming birthday. He's been a huge Capybara fan for years and thoroughly enjoyed this time watching, feeding, and holding them and their friends. There were 6 people in our group so we had the room to ourselves, along with the two hosts. There were four Capybaras and we sat in the floor and let them come to us and climb and sit on our laps. Then we fed them lettuce, carrots and I think sweet potatoes. I'm addition to the Capybaras, we got to hold and play with their friends including a muntjac deer, a guinea pig, a chinchilla, a hedgehog, a 3 banded armadillo, and a Fennec Fox. All beautiful and well behaved animals. The kids and adults alike all enjoyed the hour with the animals and appreciated the
