Little Cat is a 10/10 every time. I go there multiple times per week when I can for a fun pick-me-up. Their matcha is amazing quality and their seasonal flavors are amazing. The staff is always in a great mood and brightens my day, and they know exactly what to recommend.
3.5 stars... It was my first time trying Little Cat and I was unsure of what to get, so the worker (who was very friendly) recommended the banana milk boba out of a few options. The drink itself was tasty but where I have to knock a few points are for pricing and size; for $7 (!) the drink is quite small. I think there should be two sizes offered, and I would return for this drink/ size for around $5, with a larger size priced at $7. Though the drink was tasty, hard to justify spending so much on so little.
LOVE THIS PLACE!! Little cat is a very frequent place for my boyfriend and I. We have never had a drink there that we didn't like. They never miss! I try to recommend this place to anyone that will listen because they're one of the best coffee shops in CBUS in my opinion. Their ingredients are always higher quality and you can tell. Thank you little cat for being a main staple in our OTE neighborhood
got the hojicha einspanner and loved it! it was really well crafted and was super yummy! it was creamy and good in flavor and not too heavy. the service was nice and quick, and the cafe seating space seemed clean and quaint. didn't get the chance to try any pastries, but they did look good! if ever back in town, i'd love to try another drink
We came on a weekday afternoon. We ordered a slice of ube cake, ube crinkle cookie, plain bubble milk tea, and a matcha latte. The ube cake is a dense cake that I believe has a cheesecake like filling between the ube layers. Cheesecake and ube go really well together. I would have preferred this cake to be a bit more moist, but perhaps I should have came in earlier. The ube crinkle cookie was not too sweet. This tasted like many ube crinkle cookies I've had elsewhere. This was slightly dry, again this could have been because I ordered this in the afternoon. The bubble milk tea I got was using black tea. You can definitely taste the tea. The tapioca pearls stayed soft throughout the whole drink. And they are not stored in a brown sugar syrup. I typically order my drinks 25-30% sugar at many other boba shops, but since the boba isn't soaked in syrup, I recommend upping the sugar %. Perhaps if you ordered it flavored it would be a little sweeter. The matcha latte was a solid/standard matcha latte. We also ordered an artichoke pastry to take home. After warming it up in the air fryer, the pastry shell was perfectly crispy and flaky. The filing was a little salty for my preference. The staff was very friendly and patient. The cafe had a lot of plants, natural light, and cute art. I saw a couple people studying as well as some just catching up. There are a handful of tables here, so it's perfect for either.
Love that they have a bubble tea shop here! My friends and I came by to try it on a Sunday afternoon. They were pretty busy. Lots of people were ordering the drinks. I got matcha mango while my friends got green milk tea and blueberry corn. They had a lot of unique flavors! I was impressed! We all enjoyed our drinks. I didn't think the matcha flavor was strong enough in my milk tea but it's just a preference. Nothing was too sweet which was perfect!
Little Cat was an exciting find while I was walking around the downtown area. Unfortunately, visitors need to endure downtown parking to visit this place, but I recommend going here if you can. The ambiance is very bright and welcoming, and the staff is extremely nice. I was disappointed that their food portions were small because they were so good. Their drink options were also very good, and I will probably come here again if I'm in the area.
They now have or had a location not on Yelp across from the State House on East Broad I went to in September. It was quite popular but had some seating available that was comfy. The staff were very friendly and I loved the Dalkom Latte I had before touring the Ohio Statehouse.
Not very many options for boba drinks, unfortunately. The tapioca was average and the drink itself was watery.
I like good milk tea, and this is excellent milk tea with friendly and fast service. Zero complaints, will come back many times
My son and I were immediately stopped by the view of these beautiful and delicious looking mochi donuts! We're always on the hunt for a good one. We tried the strawberry and it did not disappoint! It was a creamy strawberry flavor and the donut was nice and chewy. The best thing is that the icing wasn't overly sweet, which some tend to be. Definitely want to try the ube next time!
I always have a great experience with the coffee and drinks at Little Cat! The owner, Ray, provides amazing recommendations. No matter what drink I choose, the flavor is always spot on and very unique. Consistently look forward to getting coffee from here whenever I'm in the area!
I'm pretty sure my funeral will consist of a dance floor, strobe lights and a bubble tea and brownie bar. If you didn't know, BAM!, now you do: I'm in love with boba. I hadn't yet had a chance to try Little Cat, so this was a good 'two birds, one stone' kinda situation, since we stopped for lunch at East Market. Little Cat doesn't have taro, so when I asked the gentleman in line behind me what he gets, he recommended their Matcha + Strawberry. Okay, that it is. I got it my usual way with extra boba and no ice. Fyi, LC does not offer adjustable sweetness levels for their specialty boba drinks, be aware (kind of a bummer, imo). After trying my first few sips, when I got home, I added some regular milk to the drink. I know can say, I wasn't exactly infatuated with the fruit mix. While I do like matcha drinks, I know now that the fix of the fruit liquid was not gelling with my tastebuds. The match flavor was great, so adding the low-fat milk smoothed out the taste and made the drink quite tasty. I'll also add their boba was a bit on the too soft side for my ultimate chewy scoreboard. Unfortunately, I don't see myself going back to LC, as the base drink was $6.99 + $1.50 for each extra scoop of boba (I got two scoops extra), so I paid something like $10.50 for the drink (that's with tax), which was waaaayyyyy overpriced, I don't care the demographics or socioeconomic status of your location. I'm glad I gave LC a go, but it was not enough to warrant spending my disposable income here in the future.
Found this matcha spot at the East Market and so glad we did! Seriously some of the best matcha I've tried! The first visit we got two strawberry matchas with oat milk & boba. It was amazing! I was shocked, this was my first time trying matcha in Columbus. We enjoyed it so much that we went back the next day. We got the same strawberry matcha and tried the blueberry matcha... it was even better!! Both flavors are fantastic and just this place overall. I will definitely be trying the other flavors when I am back! Also, the service is amazing :) read more

Staff was super friendly, and the space they worked in looked very clean and organized. AMAZING coffee!!!!! Got the misugaru ice latte! read more
This tea business in the East Market had some wonderful tea and cofee offerings. They had regular coffee, espresso, tea, biba milk tea along with various milk choices like oat and coconut. The specialty coffee combinations were very interesting like the use of molasses, ginger, gochuchang mocha and persimmons. They have matcha combinations with fruits like strawberry and blueberry. I opted for a combination of oolong tea with mango whuch was a really nice combination because I did not want it to be too sweet. The server was very helpful and answered my questions about the unique combinations on the menu. I loved the tea. It had the perfect amount of sweetness with a great mango flavor. I was visiting Ohio and did not it make it back but the next visiting will explore the gochuchang mocha coffee! read more

Little cat is a must stop in the East Market. These photos are from July, but we have been back every time we go to the East market. Always delivers great flavor and fun vibes. Incredible drinks with some tasty pastries, a cool vibe throughout branding in their space, and a fun place to watch some premium beverages be made. Crew seems to enjoy it all and are super friendly. A great place all around. read more

Went to Little Cat on Saturday! Is a cute spot in the east market. Everyone there was super helpful with recommendations. I got the oolong milk tea with boba. The tea was the right amount of sweetness and the boba was perfectly chewy. They also sell local things such was coffee from Luck Bros. Love that they support local! Will definitely be getting my boba fix from here any time I'm in the area! read more
I loved the Hokkaido Milk Tea! Had 50% sweetness and it was lovely. It had this hint of somewhat sweet cream and vanilla-ish essence It seems. I enjoyed it. The black milk tea was great as well. Would love to be back. Happy tummy! read more

Top notch service the staff members are friendly and knowledgeable. They're quick to make recommendations for first timers and they also make sure to have your drinks out promptly! I got the matcha + strawberry with boba and it was absolutely delicious. They whisk the matcha with a chasen, which creates a frothy smooth texture, and layer it on top of your milk choice. The strawberry base layer adds the perfect amount of sweetness, and complements the chewy boba by adding a tiny bit of popping crunch due the the strawberry seeds. Loved the overall ambiance of Little Cat, decorated with plants from the neighboring plant store (the plant gays). You can also purchase adorable stickers, pins, and quality coffee/tea products. Overall, five stars for service, products, and ambiance. read more
Omg! What an adorable little boba and coffee shop!! They have a small curated menu and even feature seasonal items. The prices are reasonable and the service is quick and fun to watch. I opted for a seasonal drink, ube lemonade and my friend went with the matcha and peach boba. Both drinks were delicious. It was my first time having something ube flavored but I really enjoyed it, it's has kind of a nutty/vanilla flavor. read more

Super cute little boba and coffee shop at East Market with an affinity for our fun feline friends. The menu is very manageable and plenty of options for both fans of tea/boba drinks and coffee. I order the iced Americano and was very happy that it wasn't bitter in the least. The frooti pebbles boba (pictured) was just the right amount of sweet, though my wife was not a fan of the boba itself as she was expecting more of the jellied boba that pops, but I enjoyed it very much. Quick service and priced as expected. read more

The store front is adorable and very aesthetic. A lot of the strawberry matchas I've had are overly sweet but this was the perfect amount of sweetness. The boba was on the harder side. It's also not sweetened like some boba places, but I didn't mind that. It was pretty expensive though for only getting 16 oz. The workers made the matcha traditionally in front of you so you were getting authentic matcha. read more
Cute lil boba tea shop at the East Market. As soon as I laid my eyes on the ube coconut one, I just knew I had to have it. It was soo soo good. I drank it all in a matter of 10 minutes, which is fast for me. The boba was soft and just right... not overly sweet or bland. Service was fast and personalized. Will definitely be back to try more flavors! read more
