I absolutely loved this place! The one bit of criticism I have doesn't even bring down the rating…read more As others have mentioned, it's quiet and has a very comfy ambience. There were a lot of people while we were there, so we didn't get to hang out with a few of the cats, but I'm glad they were being entertained enough by the other people~ All those sweethearts deserve the love. The food options weren't like a "traditional cafe" in the way that everything other than the coffee was prepackaged. There were some absolutely adorable cat shaped cookies that looked great! They had many other options on snacks too. The workers there were nice and cared about the cats a lot. Now for my one downside: trying to adopt. The cat we really liked was already going home with someone else. It was kind of hard to not be at least a little sad that this very affectionate kitty wasn't coming home with us, but that's just how it goes I guess. I wish places like this would have some way to identify which pets were already spoken for. There wasn't really any way upfront to tell other than finding a worker and asking. Maybe they could receive a temporary collar? Again, this doesn't ruin the experience and I would still highly recommend a visit! But if you want to adopt any of the cats, maybe let the employees know when you walk in.
