As a cat person and a coffee fiend, this place is awesome. The staff is very patient and kind, the coffee is always great. The energy can't be beat, who wouldn't be happy in a room full of kitties?

What a great concept! Familiar with this sort of thing in Japan. Owners and volunteers were super nice folks. Great fun for the kids and family. I would recommend 60 min vs 30. Time goes by quickly when you need your kitty fix.

The food was really good and there was fast service. The cats all seemed well taken care of, there were many toys for the cats to play with. The staff was very nice and understanding, when ordering I took a while but they were nice about it.

This place is incredible! The staff are so kind and accommodating. They were willing to stay an hour after closing to help us adopt our new baby. I believe they have helped 1600 cats get adopted over the last 6 years!

Loved this cute cat cafe!! The cats and staff were so friendly. I got the matcha latte with raspberry flavoring and it was delicious. Can't wait to visit again!
