On one side, our cat cafe is just a regular place to get pastries, coffee, teas, freshly made organic juices, kombucha, locally sourced snacks and beer and wine. It's a place to bring your laptop and use free Wi-Fi while you enjoy a good morning pick me up. Order a drink from our friendly purristas. Or a place to unwind during a busy day.

But the other side of a cat cafe is that it is an attraction where cats can be watched and played with.

Patrons pay a small cover fee and go into a separate room to play with and hang out with a bunch of free roaming, fully adoptable cats.

The world's first cat cafe opened in Taiwan in 1998. A few years later, they started to open in Japan, which is where the concept took off. The concept spread to Europe and then to the United States in 2014. Cat cafes in the United States differ from those in many other countries with their focus on adoptions. So you can come down to a cat cafe, grab lunch or a snack, get a coffee, go play with cats, and if you fall in love, adopt them and take them home.
