cannot recommend the Capybara Café in St. Petersburg enough! This was truly one of the most unique…read moreand memorable experiences we've had as a family. We booked private experiences with the baby capybaras and then a separate private session with a couple of the adults -- and it exceeded every expectation. The babies were absolutely adorable, gentle, and so interactive. Getting that up-close time made it feel really special and personal. The adult capybaras were just as amazing. Calm, sweet, and fascinating to observe. The staff took the time to share so much educational information about the animals -- their behavior, care, and personalities -- which made the experience even more meaningful for my kids. It wasn't just cute photo moments (although there were plenty of those!). It was educational, hands-on, and thoughtfully organized. My kids were beyond excited and are still talking about it. If you're looking for something unique, family-friendly, and unforgettable, this is it. We will absolutely be back!

Lisa's Teahouse of Horror is within the Simpsons Fast Food Plaza in Universal Studios. It's a great…read moreoption for those looking to eat a bit less heavy while in the parks. My only gripe is nothing is made to order - it's all pre-package items for grab & go consumption. However, we all know Lisa Simpson is a vegetarian so this the horror teahouse fits her just perfectly. They do have tons of salads (though some have fish or chicken in them), hummus, turkey wraps, fruit, yogurts and veggies. Overall it's a much healthier option than other quick service restaurants in the park, though not completely vegetarian. You can find seating outside or a ton of seating inside the food court area.

Sure, I'm on vacation in a theme park, but I don't want to eat fries and a half pound of cheese…read morewith every meal. Lisa's had a nice selection of salads and lighter options. I had the turkey wrap; nothing to write home about. 3 stars for the actual food and an extra star to have healthier options like this available.

I can't say enough good things about Rebekka & David as well as their awesome staff, who have created a space that makes everyone feel welcome--especially those who enjoy spooky & nerdy things.

I reserved a Saturday afternoon and did not wait for my time slot. Reservation is key! I got an iced vanilla coffee in the mean time and the barista was very helpful. They were able to accommodate my oat milk instead of a traditional dairy option which I was grateful for. The kittens were the best part! They were all so cute and cuddly! The adoptions are facilitated through SPCA and donations are accepted. The attendants were so helpful and informative. My cousin was running a bit late so we were also able to extend our time (with a small extra free). Overall, I highly recommend this cattery for your serotonin boost!

We had some time to kill before going to the airport so we stopped by the Orlando Cat Cafe. They…read morehad walk-in registrations available at 11:00AM so we ordered some drinks and waited before we were allowed into the cat play area. They had a lot of cats and kittens and every one of them were so cute! Pink collars were girls and blue collars were boys. If their collar had a flower on it, it meant the cat could be feisty if it's not feeling it. A time slot is an hour so you can hang out with the cats for that entire duration. They have a lot of wands and balls lying around. The room was very clean and I didn't smell cat or litter at all. They had a cat window into the other room and I guess that's where the food and litter were located. I had a fun time playing with the cats. Some were sleeping but a lot of them were being active and running around! You can't pick up the cats though but many of them will let you pet them. These cats are available for adoption! I am not local to the area and I already have two cats but if you're looking for one this place seems pretty good to get a furry friend! Nice cat cafe and I would come back!
