This is a quaint cafe filled with cats. They offer cat adoption services and also take donations to help other kittys. The staff is extremely friendly and always helpful. Always a great time. read more

My first time going to a cat cafe and it was a success. The Tally Cat Cafe is a great spot. They have an awesome drink menu and everything is very affordable. They have something for everyone - coffee, teas, hot chocolate, cocktails and more. You can either drink your beverage in the lounge area or bring it in while visiting the cats. But beware, the cats enjoy the drinks and the straws so guard them with your life! The cats themselves were very sweet. They are rescues and up for adoption. The staff is very informative and great at telling you about each kitty. We brought our 3 year old daughter to the cafe and she had a blast. She really enjoyed her hot chocolate and loved all the kitties (don't know if it was always mutual). I would recommend making a reservation in advance because the slots do fill up. It was a really fun hour visit and I would recommend checking them out! read more

Great environment and the cats are so cute!!! I tried the chai and it's amazing and everyone here is super sweet

This was such a great experience!! We are traveling from New York and have never been to a cat cafe, and wanted to give it a try! We made online reservations the night before and arrived promptly the next day at noon for our visit. The staff was pleasant, the drinks were delicious and the cat/kittens were the sweetest!! My husband & I enjoyed sitting and allowing the cats to come to us for some love / rubs; while my daughter enjoyed the very playful kittens! It was both calming and enriching and we are so glad we came. This is such a wonderful idea to allow people the time and space to sit with cats before possibly adopting. If we lived in Florida I would have certainly put in an application for Rosa - she stole my heart!! All-in-all it was a PURRRfect experience!! read more

Love cat cafes! This one is no exception! Very friendly cats and a nice space to visit them in. It gets rather busy on weekends so reservations are recommended! read more

The first time I learned about the Cat Cafe concept, I immediately fell in love with the idea. Tally Cat Cafe is the first cat cafe I have ever visited and I found it to be pretty cool - but not quite what I envisioned when I first learned about the cat cafes springing up in other parts of the world. The best way for me to describe this is sort of like going to the humane society kitten room, but with a lot more modern seating and cat toy options - oh and generally agreeable/fun kitties/cats roam this space. No cats are at war like in many traditional pet adoption centers. I suppose I did not do enough research prior to visiting, since I had zero idea about the $7/hour fee to actually get to visit/interact with the cats. For some reason I pictured the sort of place where you purchase a beverage, sit at a random seat in the establishment, and cats may just be roaming around. Not the case here, heh. It is not unreasonably expensive but it is VERY helpful if you plan to arrive AT or near the TOP of an hour, or else you will do what I had to do- which was order two adorably decorated beverages and wait for 45 minutes. While you wait, you do have the entertaining view of watching the kittens play with the guests that are currently visiting (10 guests maximum at one time). But if there are a lot of people waiting to see the cats, then you might be waiting for quite a bit of time. Luckily they keep all visiting groups to a 1 hour limit - but we had the misfortune of only getting to see the cats in their playful, hyperactive state through the window for 45 minutes, because when it was our turn to finally enter the room, all of the cats were worn out and ready to go to sleep. So the group before us really lucked out. We still enjoyed our time in the cat room but had far less interaction with the cats than the previous group. One perk is that Tally Cat Cafe gives out loyalty cards, so since I earned two stamps from my first visit, I only have a few more visits to go before I earn a free one. A reward that I might not be able to reap unless I have company in town and another reason to go back. Lord knows I don't need another meowster running around just yet! read more

Such a fun experience! Love the cafe and before entering the cafe to be able to watch the cats Lattes, wine in a can, and craft lemonades were all delish. We visited as part of my daughter's 10th birthday celebration and had the best time. We loved the space, ability to interact with all of the cats and kittens, and it has a great mission. My only regret is my girls didn't push harder to adopt a cat. But when we're ready to adopt again, this is where we'll go. read more

A cute cafe providing two of the best things ever in one place: coffee and kitties! After following them on social media for ages and seeing all of the adoptions they've helped to facilitate, I stopped in to try them for myself and enjoyed the experience, even if I was coming in just to drink coffee, study, and play with the cats. Serving up local Lucky Goat coffee, everything was reasonably priced and had cute cat accents to names and the drinks themselves. The busyness of the cafe seems to depend on the day, so you will want to book online/check in advance to see if there is room available. We enjoyed the visit with the cats for an hour ($8 per person) and loved on them to our hearts' content. They have a variety of ages, which is nice, as you can either relax with the older, sleepier cats on your lap or play with the energetic kittens. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and will definitely be back! I may not be looking for a new cat right now, but the Tally Cat Cafe provides the quality cuddle time with the kitties that I miss! read more

When we found out there was a cat cafe in Tallahassee on our way to Orlando, we HAD to stop and were definitely not disappointed! When we first walked in, there was a super cute photo area, and the coffee was super good! They even made a cat in the foam! The cat area smelled surprisingly pleasant! I guess I assumed it would smell like cat litter, but I was wrong. The staff was super sweet, and the cats were to die for. I hope I will be able to stop again some time! read more

I've been to my share of cat cafes, including some in Japan where the trend originated. Tally Cat has a nice cat area. It's spacious and has a lot of toys for the cats. All the cats were adorable and it's great that you can adopt them. The owner told me that they usually do more than 4 adoptions a week. The cafe part of Tally Cat is lacking. There are not many food options and the drinks are limited. I got a cat design in my drink but it didn't exactly come out right. I feel like once this place expands upon the cafe aspect, it would be a really great experience. read more

Cutest little café! Everything about this place makes me want to go back. Delicious coffee and amazing presentation (see photos!), friendly staff, and obviously all the benefits of being around and interacting with kitties. Great as a relaxing solo outing or fun date idea. You can also access the café/kitty-viewing-area without the admission fee if you just want a nice place to grab a drink and hangout (they serve alcohol, too!). You can tell the owner puts a lot of thought into this place. Professional photos of their cats cover the walls, wonderful small business to support if you are in the area. read more

Really cute place! My daughter made reservations for our group of six. The staff is friendly and so are the cats. We were there for about an hour, had our tea or coffee that we purchased and got to play with the cats. Although we went in late afternoon and the kitties all seemed tired and were sleeping most of the time. It's a great place for anyone looking to adopt a cat in Tallahassee area and a great way to support a small business. read more

Such a fun and stress-free environment. Cats are hysterical as they play and lounge around. They are in a separate room, behind a glass enclosure, so you may watch and enjoy them. Cafe serves Lucky Goat coffee and many other delicious items. Great place to bring the family, very kid friendly. Free WiFi for those that want or need to work. read more

The missing stars is because the rude girl in the front desk with black hair and blue tattoos in her forearm takes away from the experience, was not very helpful and had a poor attitude, courtesy goes a long way . The long wait time because we are a walk in is bull shit even if the place is empty, I saw her turning a lot of kids and families away while I had to wait for 1 hour seating around , a lot of parents left pissed also an age limit should be imposed , little kids ages 3 and below are mean to the cats and the front desk girl give no attention, animal cruelty. Giving the cats treats while there is customers inside is a bad idea as it leaves the people with cero interactive experience and it turns into just seating or standing there doing nothing . Poor Management training ? read more

Adorable kitties, delicious and artful drinks and cute merch- plus an IG ready wall! What more could you ask for? Adoptable cats! Love that they've saved so many sweet felines since they opened. It's a must see when you visit tally. Make sure you get the Burmese if you're a Nutella lover like me ;*) ***make sure you make a reservation ahead on the weekend read more

After losing one of my cats unexpectedly, I decided my wife and I needed to visit the tally cat café to help with the grieving process. We decided to get coffee - it was really good. I was actually surprised expecting sort of mediocre hotel coffee but it was on brand for Lucky goat and the espresso was very good. The prices are excellent. The donuts looked really good but we didn't have any. The variety of cats was spectacular! Different ages, different sizes, different looks, different personalities - it was really great, there was something for everyone. My only complaint was that there were two unsupervised children. They were about 12-year-old girls who had no concept of personal space. It really helped us to process our grief and loss. Thank you tally cat café. Highly recommend. read more

Wayyyy over priced! Liked the concept till I figured out it was about $50 for my two girls to see the cats for a short times period, not to mention a snack and or drink, and the website say they would not be allowed to pick them up - no exceptions - wth - I don't know how they are still in business... read more

Fabulous concept pet cats, drink liquor, coffee & eat snacks. Beautiful well kept and cared for cats & kittens with lots of playthings and comfortable seating. They sell T-shirts cat things and even have cats for adoption. It's recommended that you go earlier in the day when the cats have more energy. This is not the place for small children that are putting things in their mouth and not walking independently. read more

So fun! Sweet cats that need to be adopted, yummy lattes, nice staff, and photo area that is super cute. The cats have a comfy life there

yummers! love the boba! Also, incredibly easy place to study, and lovely environment. Would recommend to anyone!

Honestly I couldn't rate this place lower than a 4 to begin with because the cats are so damn cute! I had boba, and it was really good! My friend's drink was messed up, but they ended up giving her a free drink and a coupon for her next visit in apologies. It was very sweet and I feel like they did more than they needed to. Great beverages, sweet staff, and cute cats :) read more

Tally Cat Cafe - Pet Adoption Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

A bit of a disclaimer before I begin: I do personally know the owner and one of the baristas, but I will as always do my best to remain impartial and unbiased in my review. I have been excitedly anticipating the opening of Tally Cat Cafe for quite some time. The concept of a cat cafe, where one can enjoy coffee or tea while in the company of shelter cats looking for their forever home, is in my mind both novel and refreshing, exactly the sort of establishment missing from the Tallahassee caffeine scene. In a city largely comprised of stressed out college students, a comfortable space to relax while surrounded by potential new furry friends sounds like an ideal place for taking a break from studies. When I later heard that Lucky Goat would be supplying the coffee and training the baristas for this location, I knew I would have to drop by as soon as they opened, as Lucky Goat supplies the best cup of joe in town. I am thrilled that Tally Cat has exceeded my expectations. The staff's commitment to the cats cannot be understated, and though the space doesn't yet have that lived in, homey feel that one typically associates with a good cafe, you can sense the love that went into creating the cat room and crafting the cat-themed menu. The drinks are phenomenal - nothing less than the best Lucky Goat has to offer - and I look forward to trying the 'Russian Blue' next time I swing by; I'm told that it, "...tastes like breakfast in a cup," which sounds dangerously addictive. It's also worth mentioning that the cat room and dining area are both separate and impeccably clean, so one needn't worry about whether the cats have washed their paws. I hope that Tally Cat continues to provide the same excellent customer experience and quality coffee in serving the Tallahassee community for years to come. read more

Loved meeting the cats and kitties here. The staff are always super sweet. Interior is clean and really pretty. I would recommend going as early as possible because the later you go, the more sleepy the cats become lol. read more

Fantastic service and general atmosphere! The coffee and baked goods were delicious and the merch is very cute! They have an all gender friendly bathroom, which is super awesome and is something I almost never see anywhere. It's also very clean. The cats were all very nice, although obviously some wanted to be allowed to sleep and thusly left alone. One kitten did have an accident, which is to be expected as they're going through potty training -- just make sure to tell whoever is up front! Also, their policy with children is a lot friendlier than other cat cafes I've visited, if you're looking to bring your kids or what have you. Overall, a 11/10 experience, would absolutely recommend. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. They seem to really care about the kitties, which is most important. The area for the cats is nice and gives them a lot of room to play, eat, or hide. On top of everything, the drinks and food are great and well-priced. I can see this being my new favorite study spot. read more

This is a super cute little place! It was a little hard to find, as it's tucked away in a shopping plaza. They serve a pretty good variety of coffee and tea. They also have a small selection of pastries. The main attraction, however, is the cat playing area. There were several cats inside & they were so fun to watch! The cat room has tons of trees and toys for the cats to play with. They all come from the humane society and are eligible for adoption, which I think is a great concept. It's important to note, however, that it costs $7 per person to go play with the cats for one hour. It's best to book your time slot ahead of time, especially on the weekends, as it gets crowded. My friend & I went on a Friday night & were unable to get in. Nonetheless, we still had a good time watching the cats through the glass. Overall I like the concept & I think this is a great service to provide the cats and the community! read more

Tally Cat Cafe - Cat play time! - Pet Adoption Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Disgusted and tired of the traditional shelters I tried Tally Cat out to adopt a cat. Walking into Tally Cat, I was impressed by the clean play area full of adult cats and kittens. They have great accessories that I end up purchasing off of Amazon for my cat as well, and they were accommodating answering questions and concerns that I had before adopting. The cat/kitten area is calm and quiet, watch out for the young kitten eager to jump on your lap soaking up of your attention. My cat, Bella, has been with me for over a month, she was clean, records up-to-date and has been a great addition to my home. Even if you are not adopting they allow you to play and enjoy your time with the cats, and who know you may take one home! read more

I love this place!!! They serve good coffee, and have vegan pastry options! For $7, you can spend an hour in the cat room, and who doesn't love to play with sweet kittens?! All of the cats are also adoptable, and I love that they have helped give so many cats homes. Before Covid, they also hosted all kinds of fun events like cat yoga and movie nights. A cute, fun, quirky place for a date or just to relax and cuddle some kitties!! read more

Love this place, wish I lived closer! When can we go back?

I just absolutely love this place. I've been but once, and I really admire what they are doing 1) for the cats that are there looking for a loving home and 2) for cat lovers all over Tallahassee. Upon walking in, you notice an enclosed room where the kitties are all kept, and the front area is a seating area where you can look into the separated cat room. Lucky goat coffee is served here along with some great pastry choices!! It is then up to you if you want to bring your food and drink into the cat room. I was just so excited to see the cats that I brought my pastry and drink with me, and ended up leaving them for some time because the cats just took up all of my attention. The Tally Cat Café is very clean and orderly. They provide lint rollers when you get out and hand sanitizers, too. The bathrooms are well kept and tidy. Everyone that was working there was super friendly and chatted to us for some time about the cats. It's obvious that they, too, believe in the mission of the café. read more
