The owner and staff working were very accommodating and pleasant. The atmosphere is adventurous and cozy. Overall, just a great experience and look forward to coming out on a movie night. The owner shared that they do like to show local productions. Can't wait and highly recommend folks to go out and support!

The café and barroom is big and spacious with plenty of places to sit; at the bar, at a table OR at a counter that runs all along the glass wall giving you an up close view of the cat interaction section. I would have loved to spend some time in there but my husband didn't want to pay the fee this time. It's okay as I know we'll be back one day. We snacked on a blueberry scone and a savory soft pretzel. My husband was happy to indulge in his favorite beer on tap (Truth) and I had a Smelly Cat Frappe. They have all kinds of adorable merchandise for sale. Many special events here too. The staff were very welcoming, cheerful, and happy to chat. Plan a visit soon!

There is a small pay for parking lot next door. Their pay for order credit card machine asks for a tip. I do not put tips on my expenses. The staff sees no credit tip, gets upset, then makes the order. I always do a cash tip - I guess I'm stupid. Requiring me to pay an additional tip for substandard performance is an insult. I do, but $3.50 for a bagel and $8.00 for a cup of coffee with steamed milk should be enough. Of course I gave another$1.00 tip. The staff appears to not be very knowledgeable of the area. - I asked how to get to the bridge to Covington, which is a few blocks from the shop, and apparently has a secret entrance that you need to say the secret word , and since I don't know the name of the bridge (the secret word) - she couldn't help.

I decided on the Purple Haze and chai muffin because they both caught my eye at the front counter. The Barista was kind and mindful, asking me for the correct spelling of my name as he took my order (bonus points for that). It wasn't a long wait for my order because I don't believe the regular morning crowd had arrived just yet. As I left and took that first sip...mmm mmm, I was blown away. Now I know some will say it's just coffee, but I will argue and say it's more than that. None of the ingredients were overpowering each other, and the taste of coffee itself wasn't overly present. It was just what I needed that morning. After I reached my office, before I dove into that heavenly muffin, I snapped a picture (sorry the drink was just too good). I enjoyed the chai in the muffin and am glad that small bites have been added to the menu to pair with the drinks. Black Coffee will be on my list to try other things on the menu as I start my new morning routine this summer walking to the office. I don't know if I'll be able to break away from that Purple Haze though

The blueberry lemon scones that we bought were absolutely amazing. They were tender and buttery with a little bit of crumble and a really sweet icing. The first bite practically melted in my mouth. Immediately after taking it I wanted to buy another scone even though I had only taken one bite. They were utterly delicious! So, if the taste of the scones is any indication of the scrumptiousness of the other baked good, then this bakery is worth your visit. Plus, the staff was very personable. The guy who served us gladly warmed our scones and offered information about the various beverages. It was an overall positive experience.

And extra bonus was just outside in the fake grass area, my kids immediately walked over and watched Bluey on the big screen so I can easily order our drinks without interruption. I ordered an iced mocha and my husband ordered an iced latte - we were both pleasantly surprised by how good the coffee was. Seeming it was the only decent coffee option in the Levee area, we are so ever grateful!
