    A friend and I visited in 3-9-25, The cafe is clean, cats are well taken care of and the owner is very aware of what he wants from this cafe. I felt like from the start, a lot was considered in putting this space together, down to furniture placement and decor. You get to choose from a lot of cat wands before you enter the room, you also get a key to a locker to put all your stuff in. Cats are introduced on the wall with their pics All the cats are comfortable enough to where each one feels safe so all of their personalities stands out. They have an abundance of wall space, not just stairs, almost like wall hotels, for them to create their own bubble as well as mental stimulation toys. The owner and workers do their best to be aware of what's going on to make the experience for both cats and guess enjoyable. The cafe puts effort into helping us have individual moments with the kitties. They gave us towels to attract the cats onto our laps and gave us dental treats to give out The owner is aware that not all cats can fit in this environment, so when this happens, they try to find a home for them outside of this space. He also tries to highlight the older cats personalities because it is harder for older ones to get adopted when there are so many cute kittens around. I really hope more people come visit whether is it to just support the place and be able to chill with some cats, or if you want an environment that helps you choose a cat based on how they are during, what I think, is the best time of day, to get to know a cat. Once a month on Mondays, they have four hours with the kitties for $25. If you work from home, or your a student who is studying during this time, please stop by if you just want to chill with cats.

    This spot is such a cozy and aesthetic cat lounge. I've only experienced one cat cafe in Seattle, but this one is much larger and you can tell the staff really cares about the cats' wellbeing and safety. They took the time to go over the rules and instructions on how to interact with the cats and made sure we had hand sanitizers and wipes when entering and exiting. They're also attentive and very kind throughout the whole experience. There's plenty of toys and they give out treats for you to feed the cats yourselves as well! There is a little locker station to store your fragile items with lint rollers if you need it. All cats are up for adoption and would highly recommend checking this place out!

    When I found out they had a Sphynx I booked a ticket immediately!! My husband, me, and step daughter made our way across town (over an hour drive) for this place. Parking was easy, there is a large lot and the space was cozy and clean. I couldn't smell cat litter at all! In the main area you have pictures of all the cats and there are various doors to go through to prevent cat runaways. They even had complimentary juice for afterwards. The cats seemed well taken care of and had all kinds of places to climb on to, scratch, even to run on a giant wheel. This place was a cat lovers dream aka me! I'm giving it 5 stars for the place overall but I will say, none of the cats we came across were overly friendly. Even the Sphynx was skittish and every Sphynx I've met is a cuddly bug including mine that I had for 9 years (rip H). I can't fault a business for something out of their control. Cats do what they wanna do.

    Best cat lounge!

    Nicest cat lounge I have ever seen. Very clean. Calm and quiet on the inside. The grandkids enjoyed it! We will definitely come back.

    This was a newly started business and i can only imagine where it will go. The cats were cute but not super playful more for pets. The owner was nice and you can tell he really cares for these cats. This is a cat lounge not a cafe there is no food. socks are needed. I would not bring younger kids (under 10) here though.

    Great service and ambiance! Loved getting to see all the cats and the service was great:)

    My family, daughter, son-in-love, and grandson, and I had a great first time at APFD horseback…read moreriding ranch on 12/31/2025. It was a highlight of our holiday season. Roland, our trail guide, was outstanding. He has a loving command of the horses as an experienced horse trainer, who is majoring in animal science. His relationship with the horses made us feel secure. He floated back and forth, chatting with each rider and ensuring that everyone was well. APFD, thank you so much for a great time of refreshing as we prepared to enter 2026. We would definitely recommend APFD to anyone who wants to take in the serenity of nature, disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the day, and needs a whoosah break. APFD, we wish you the best in 2026!

I made an online payment to secure the horses and we were on our way. It was a pretty smooth process. The horses were pleasant and not intimidating. Our guide was an experienced rider and answered every question we could of lol. They have many different kinds of animals there, it gives ranch but not farm vibes. *insider tip* They offer 2 different types of rides! A regular trail ride and an "experience" trail ride which includes trotting and cantering. This is good to know so you schedule accordingly. They use different horses for different experiences. Apple Maps kept redirecting me every 5 min and delaying me an extra 20min!, so i would recommend just searching "A Place for Dreamers" and get directions. Just go! It was a great time overall and I'm looking fwd to revisiting!

    We always have such a good time coming here!…read more We love the interaction with the touch tide pool, the octopus, penguins and the interaction with various animals - especially the sting rays! There is also a petting zoo with llamas and goats and horses and even giraffes but the kids have usually been more interested in the aquarium and aviary. There have been some changes to the pricing and the play area with all the bouncy houses has drastically changed since we had a membership last year, so I'm not sure if we'll renew. But it is still definitely a place we'll hit up at least once a year!

Depending on what you will be doing, it ranges from 30 to 90 credits. About $3 to $9 depending on how much credit your purchase as they give free credits the more you buy. The koi were huge and hungry. For 30 credits, got to buy some koi food to feed them. The sting rays were fantastic. First time to feed stingrays. Mouth is on the bottom... a staff showed us how to feed them. Learned something new. We got to throw some fish to the otters. Petted lemurs and kangaroo. Went up close to an Asian water monitor lizard. It was big... 8 ft in length. A lot of firsts for us. They also had a camel, giraffe, turtles, different types of lizards, ant eater, baby armadillo, warthog and so much more. We didn't get a chance to interact with the capybara as they were cleaning the cage. We went in a Friday afternoon and wasn't busy. I can see how kids would love the place. Oh yeah, they even had penguins that you can interact with too. Another first. Definitely worth visiting if you like animals.

Tickets are only $10, and that alone, is worth the 5-star review. For less than the price of a couple coffee's or cartons of eggs, you are able to have some really cool interactions with animals. If you want to experience anything else like this, you'll have to drive an hour to the Houston Zoo, pay a lot more money for tickets, deal with crowds/parking/etc. The Learning Zoo is obviously not trying to compare itself to the Houston Zoo, but where else are you going to get to play with goats, pigs, birds, a pony, tortoises and snakes? The location is really hidden behind 1488. You drive through a residential street, and then all the way at the back, you make a couple of turns, and suddenly you're at The Learning Zoo. When you walk in, you are offered some lettuce and carrots for the animals for an additional $10, which is definitely worth it. Plus, they have some animals inside the lobby area - snakes, hedgehogs, other reptiles, etc. Then you head outside to the main part of the experience. You can walk amongst the tortoises, get "attacked" by all of the birds in their sanctuary, join the goats and pigs in their pen, and they even brought out a 14 foot snake for people to hold and take pictures with. Everyone here was incredibly nice, too. We were only there for about 45 minutes, but for $40, it was worth every penny.

I love the concept and idea of a safe place for cats and us being able to play with them so we decided to take time out of our morning to check this place out. The cats were friendly, mainly sleeping but it was well maintained and looked like a clean and safe environment for the cats. The reason for my low review is due to the way the business is handling a refund which I thought would be simple and is based on a confusion with their staff members. Online, it states a reservation needs to be made so while reading the rules, we made a reservation. I signed the waiver for myself and my 2 kids and walked in first. I saw they had a 30% military discount and asked if I could get a refund and repurchase. I was told she couldn't refund but since it didn't apply online, I would be able to email them and request for the difference back. Ok, no big deal. I paid for the second adult in store since now I know, we get military discount. Fast forward, I email and they refuse to give a refund. They said online, they can't verify that we qualify for the discount which is why we can only get the discount in store. I find it extremely rude for them to continue to emphasize that discounts are not applicable to online reservation since their system can't verify it when they could just simply ask for us to send through email our ID to get the price difference back like many other businesses would. I could also send the receipt showing where they did already verify us in store and where the discount is applied in store. The employee told me I would be able to request a refund and if I can prove my eligibility, I feel like they should honor it. They did offer a complimentary visit but again, I'm from Dallas so with this bad experience, I'm not enticed to return or recommend this place.
