Girafe Crepe, a Japanese crepe brand known for its distinctive "crispy-chewy" texture, is set to open a new location inside JR Osaka Station's Ekimarche Osaka on April 23, 2026 (Thursday). This marks the brand's first store within a JR station complex.
About Girafe Crepe
Girafe Crepe is built around the philosophy of "pursuing flavors that need no explanation, and spreading inspiration and smiles through food to people all over the world." Rather than relying on elaborate descriptions, the brand focuses on delivering a taste experience that speaks for itself — the kind that makes visitors want to share it with others and return for more.
The brand's defining characteristic is its "crispy-chewy" texture: a light, fragrant crispness on the outside combined with a satisfying chewiness on the inside. Achieving this combination involved extensive development in ingredient selection, formulation, baking conditions, and product design.
Menu Highlights
The Ekimarche Osaka location will offer a wide lineup of both sweet and savory crepes, with the handcrafted batter itself as a main attraction.
Double Cream Chocolate
Fresh Strawberry Double Cream Chocolate
Cheese Dog
Matcha White Mochi Red Bean Parfait
In-House Automatic Crepe-Making Robot
Girafe Crepe uses a proprietary automatic crepe-making robot to maintain consistent quality across its locations. The system balances the sensory expertise of its staff with the precision of automated technology, addressing both quality uniformity and production efficiency while keeping each crepe up to the brand's standards.
