The perfect place for a cat fix! The cats are adorable and very friendly! Owner and staff are friendly and very clearly adores the cats too, which is so lovely to see I recommend the peppermint hot chocolate

What a lovely experience! The cats were very friendly and playful and the space is beautifully decorated. There are plenty of cozy beds and climbing structures to keep the cats happy and entertained, which was really nice to see. We only paid for our drinks. There was no separate entry fee, which felt like great value. Honestly, if I were running the place, I’d consider adding a small entry fee to support the business. It’s such a well-thought-out and caring environment for both visitors and the cats. Highly recommended for cat lovers!

I had an absolutely lovely time here at the Cafe! It was really fun and truly amazing experience to pet all the cats. The food is okay…. But their coffee is good! Met all of the sweet kitties and saw an even cooler sphinx kitty!! It was a great way to talk to the other patrons and the owner was very very kind. Only complaint is cleanliness of the floor in some spots. Will definitely come back!!

The cafe place is calm and cozy, lots of cats walking around/interacting with humans, and sometimes they love some ear scratches! Watching them while having a rest heals your soul! They also got new kitty friends while we were there :) Hope they get used to each other quickly!
