Nice location in Allentown. Huge wine selection. Lots of extras on the menu, waffles, pretzel tastings etc. They even have a book club. A little put off because I wanted to do a second tasting with their extensive list but they limit you to one tasting per person. But you can have as many flights as you want. Seems like a money grab. Oh well. Will just try different stuff next time. read more

We stopped in here prior to a hockey game and will be back. We are cat obsessed and loved everything about this winery. The wine was great, the workers were beyond friendly and if we hadn't had reservations, we would have grabbed food too. They have cat quesadillas, which i wanted more than anything!! We enjoyed the ambiance and being "waited on" while here. We each enjoyed the larger tasting and not being rushed to finish it quickly! We were asked how things were but never pressured, which was so refreshing. My favorite wine was the sleepy cat fry white wine! We bought some merch and headed to the game. I cannot wait to come back and enjoy a glass or two while in Allentown! read more

While driving back up to Woodstock, NY, we were passing through Allentown. We were looking for something to eat, but when we saw the name Sleepy Cat Urban Winery, we knew we just had to stop. The place is deceptive looking because it is in a strip mall, but when you get in you will be very happy. Mark and Carrie are really friendly and cat lovers! We sat and talked about cats (past and present). Then we drank wine. There are really good wines here, such as Cozy Cranberry, White Whiskers and Apollo's Criss Cross. There are more and many of them are award winners. They are so good, we bought five bottles. And the wine is produced and bottled on site, in the back. We had a cheese and cracker plate as palate cleansers between tastings and it was really good. I really loved the signs for the restroom: Litter-boxes. Their website is really cool, too; cat themed. We never did get the food we were looking for, but Sleepy Cat more than made up for it. I don't believe you will be disappointed. read more

The owner and staff are very friendly. If you love your cat or cats in general then this place is for you. Cat decor is awesome. Wine tastings are awesome. It is a diamond in the rough find. read more

We went exploring around the area and came across Sleepy Cat Winery. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is pleasant. I tried a Peach Mango wine which was super delicious. Sadly it's only seasonal but if you can get your hands on it buy in bulk it's worth it!!! read more

Stopped in after receiving a haircut next door at Truth Beauty Salon. The lady welcomed me right away and asked if I needed any help or was looking for anything in particular. I told her I had planned on just buying a bottle of red wine since I was in the area. She asked if it was my first visit, which it was. She suggested I try a tasting since the fee ($5 for 6 samples) is waived with any wine purchase. She ushered me to a stool and was helpful and friendly throughout the whole tasting. The owner, Mark, was also hospitable and very informative. I ended up buying 3 bottles of wine and a catnip wine by the register for my friend's cat. The wine was good and if I had eaten more of a lunch I would've tried their specialty cocktail. They said every week they pair up with a local distillery and serve a different specialty drink. This week was a fruity red sangria and apple pie moonshine from Gallows Hills Spirits. It's a relaxed atmosphere, there's even a TV behind the counter. Overall a cute spot with good wine, I just wish they had crackers or something for a palate cleanser in between wines. I'd definitely be interest in going back to try the specialty cocktails or for a paint night. read more

This gem is tucked away in the same lot as "Udder Bar" in downtown Allentown. The owners and staff welcome you like family from the moment you walk in the door. Cat lovers rejoice in the over 40 cat themed wine choices, but also the simple, yet delicious food offerings. What fan of these four legged furry creatures would not fall in love with a pairing of their favorite wine and a "Catsadilla"? (A delicious quesadilla cut into the shape of a cats head, with the addition of toppings creating an adorable face.) The decor is welcoming and comfortable, with photos of the cats whom the many wines theme come from. While the tasting room seems small, fitting around 30 people at a time, they have additional space in their connected event/party room. This space can be rented out with catering from anywhere, as well as a sommelier serving wine for private parties. They hold many events from fundraisers, to trivia, to karaoke, painting, comedy and more. In addition to enjoying a nice drink or snack, know that they always donate a portion of proceeds ( 50 cents per glass, and $1 per bottle) toward their monthly foundations (Local rescues, vet clinics, and more). This urban winery may not grow their own grapes, however they have received many awards locally and nationally. Despite the title "Sleepy Cat Urban Winery" this is not a locations to sleep on. Stop in and try a tasting and fall in love with the atmosphere yourself! read more

I got to go to my favorite winery, Sleepy Cat Urban Winery. We had a great time. We ate pizza and I tried the Peaches and Mango wine milkshake. Lol. A shout out to Mark and his niece who made us feel welcomed and told us stories. I love the wine and the company there. Hope to get there every time I get to Pennsylvania. read more

I wanted to like this winery so much but was truly disappointed. To give them some credit, the staff were very friendly, funny and welcoming and the store was very clean. We sat down for a tasting and a lot of the wines were out of stock, ok, that happens but quite a few on the list. I bought 3 bottles of Smokeys Midnight Treat and didn't see it until I was home that there was nasty black sediment in the bottom of the bottle. The wine didn't taste like the one I tasted in the store. Since I don't live near the store to return them I dumped them down the drain. I won't be returning here again. read more

Puuurrrrfect!! :-) So, where can I start? My husband and I went to an event / overnight trip to the Allentown area and I was searching for wine spots and came across this one! I love cats (my nickname is "Kat", so.. hehe) and the atmosphere is so cozy and cute and there were lots of paintings and photos that mixed the cat and wine themes together. The staff was SO SO SO friendly and the wines were amazing!!! What I really liked were that my hubby and I have different tastes in wine (he likes sweet and I like dry) and they had such a great variety that there was something for each of us! They even WAIVE your tasting price if you get a bottle and the average bottle is only $12/$13.. so you can get a tasting of 6 wines and a bottle for $12! Seriously amazing!!! Next time we are in the area, we are absolutely going back!! read more

My husband and I stopped in here tonight and loved it! The staff was very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. We really enjoyed the wines we tasted. It was great to have the owner/wine maker there to share information and stories about the wine. We both got a glass of the sangria after our tasting which was delicious. We bought two bottles of wine to take home. We will definitely be back! read more

The first time we went I didn't like the wine it was all too sweet. But the owners and there story was so inspiring. The wine has improved each time we went just ask how they got started and tell me your not sold. That is the kind of local I support. read more

Not going to lie - we came cause the name had "cat" in it (we are cat people) and we were close by and said why not. We stayed because the owners are frickin awesome. We had a blast hearing stories and just talking about everything and anything! They have about 30 different wines available for tasting, which is $5 for 6 tates. The fee is waived if you buy a bottle (roughly $13). They also have a lot of fun knickknacks- from cat wine glasses to wine for your cat to funny signs for your kitchen. Highly recommend if you are in the area- you will be blown away by the hospitality! read more

Absolutely one of the best wineries I've been to. The staff were super friendly and fun to be around. The wine, absolutely amazing! I will definitely be back!!! read more

I stopped by this local winery a few hours before they were open. They let me in anyway when they saw me at the front door. I came in to buy a bottle of wine as part of a silent auction gift basket. They sell a nice variety of wine accessories. The business owner was very accommodating. I'll definitely stop in this winery again. read more

We were in the area and looking for something to do before we headed back home to Harrisburg. I love trying new wineries so from the Lehigh Valley Mall parking lot I plugged "local wineries" into Google and this was one that popped up. Since it was only 2 miles away, I thought we'd drive into town and try it out! There is a small parking lot as well as on street parking. There were plenty of spots at 3 pm on a Saturday. We walked in and were immediately greeted by the girl behind the counter. They have a tasting bar, with stools, which was nice. We were the only ones there and were asked if we were interested in doing a tasting, um...YES!!! :) She explained that the tasting was $5 for 6 samples but they waive the fee if you buy wine. She gave us a sheet of the wines they offer and we marked off the ones we wanted to try. We loved the sweet white and the blush so we bought a bottle of each. I also had a glass of their awesome Sangria. Service was very friendly and I would visit again when in Allentown. read more

I visited Sleepy Cat once during my time in Allentown, but wish I could've stopped by one more time before leaving. The folks behind the counter have hearts of gold and are FUNNY. The wine selections are all named after and in relation to the owners' cats. They often host fun little events with local businesses to raise money or just have fun. Check them out and bring home a bottle! read more

I visited Sleepy cat winery for the first time yesterday and I will definitely be back! The owner and all the wine pourers were awesome!!! If you want a fun time to taste wines or have a glass... definitely go to Sleepy Cat! read more

Amazing customer service and great wine for great prices my favorite was Smokey's Midnight Treat & the Tag You're It sandwich definitely going to tell my friends and family about this read more

This stop was just out of the blue. We were nearby and looking for a new winery to visit. Being new it was a pleasant surprise with owners being personable and fun. There were a few wines with cleaver names and good taste but being a dry wine drinker the selections were limited. We enjoyed the wine but nothing to me was outstanding but the sweeter wines were decent according to my fiancée. The time spent was worth the trip and wines were good. read more

Great little winery. Owner was very hospitable, and welcoming. We went on a night where they had dip pairings. They were delicious! Definitely try their chicken salad mix and tail-gator dip. If you stop by do a wine tasting, there are so many good ones. Smokey's Midnight Treat is awesome! Will be going back in the future. Meow read more

Great service and people. The wine selection has something for everyone Dry to sweet and fruity !

I've tried many of these wines (INCREDIBLE!!) but today was the first time that I went into the store and met Mark. He's incredible, the atmosphere is amazing and he was literally brewing (idk if that's the correct term or not..) wine in the back!! Had an amazing conversation with him and will definitely be coming back to the store for more wine (ofc) but also to chat with Mark!! read more

Amazing wine and the owners are the coolest people ever. Highly recommend this place to everyone!!

My wife and I stopped in tonight for our first time, we saw the Sleepy Cat ad on the video board at the IronPigs game. We never heard of this winery so we quickly looked it up and made it a point to stop in this week. We arrived shortly after opening today (4pm) and were promptly welcomed by Mark. We each did a tasting of sweet and fruit wines they had. They do have a good variety of dry which he said were relatively new to the list. We really enjoyed quite a few of their wines, left with 8 bottles and we'll be sure to stop in again to replenish them when they're gone. Mark was an awesome host, he even showed us around the tanks and told us a lot about his wife and their cats. The girl who came in at 5:00 was also very kind and personable (sorry we didn't get her name). We've never been to an "urban winery" but truly enjoyed the comfy space and friendly conversation. It's nice to enjoy a small winery versus going to the liquor store and picking a bottle you hope you like. We'll definitely be back and will be bringing family and friends. read more

Love this place! I am a regular here. They are so personable and the wine is AMAZING. if you are looking for a unique wine experience go there!!!! read more

My husband and I were at Sleepy Cat for a music event, but I had to do some sampling. Six samples for $5, which is deducted from the purchase price of a bottle.That evening there were 21 wines on the list. I decided to stick to the whites and save the reds for another visit. I thought it odd that I was not given a fresh glass for each sample but was told they do it only when you switch between reds and whites. Doesn't the flavor still cling to the sides? Unlike other wineries, I could not buy a bottle and drink it during the performance. I had to purchase wine by the glass (Kitty Kisses $5), which I did, and bought a bottle of Pawsitively Peachy ($14) to take home. The employee that waited on me was helpful. Only one owner, Mark, was on the premises that evening, and was very friendly. On our second visit, again for a music event, we bumped into some friends who were there for the first time. They were also confused by the sampling process. Like me, they expected individual glasses for each sample, served at the same time, so they could go back and forth to compare. Instead, it was just one sample at a time and the next sample is poured into the same glass. Although I intended to sample reds this time, I decided to just purchase by the glass. Despite this, I must say that Sleepy Cat provides some very good local live music events, so it is worth going. read more
