    I was so excited to hear that the Central Coast/SLO County finally has an amazing spot like The Caffeinated Cat Cafe! This adorable place offers delicious coffee, a variety of drinks, and snacks, while giving you the chance to spend time with adorable, adoptable cats. The cats have a spacious, enclosed play area filled with toys, climbing trees, and plenty of cozy nooks. This place makes for such a fun and relaxing experience for both the cats and visitors. It is a wonderful place to unwind, support a great cause, and maybe even meet your new furry friend. I can't wait to come back, and bring friends along!!

    Fun session playing with sweet kitty cats! Sign up online to reserve your spot--they only let up to 8 people in at a time so the cats don't get overwhelmed. They do have regular coffee and snacks and a few pastries, but I wouldn't count on eating breakfast there. You're really there to play with the kitties! And you can adopt them too! Definitely a fun time!

    We had a great morning at the caffeinated cat Café. The people working there were very sweet and kind and super helpful. We made a reservation ahead of time and we were the only ones there. The facility was exceptionally clean. Three out of four of us had cat allergies and it was so clean that none of our allergies kicked in. The facility has two rooms. One room for adult cats and one room for kittens. It was fun being in each of the rooms for different reasons. They had a senior old man cat that was so sweet and then they had brand new kittens as well. You can't pick up the adult cats, but you can pick up the kittens. You can pet the old cats and they can sit in your lap if they come to you. We went at 10 AM and it was perfect. The cats were awake and playful. We read online that if you go later in the afternoon sometimes the cats are all asleep. We ordered a couple of coffees and those were also really good. We had a great time and a great experience with our young nieces. Highly recommend

    Have been to other cat cafes. This was the cleanest one I've been to. The cats were loving and engaged. The staff were friendly and accommodating. Plenty of treats and drinks and gifts to shop before you go in. Didn't smell wasn't dirty. My daughter loved it and didn't want to leave. Would come back and have already started recommending to friends. Ty

    This place gets 5 stars just for the idea. (Cats and Coffee). We walked in to a nicely decorated coffee shop to check this new place out. We were greeted by a very friendly person behind the desk. All the reservations were taken up so make sure to reserve your spot online. You can walk-in if all reservations are not filled. You can come in and pay for a coffee and drink coffee if there is a seat available in the lobby. Watching through the glass is free with purchase. The coffee drinking/viewing area only has a couple tables and is quite small but it works. In order to socialize with the cats in the cat room you will pay an admission fee. The fee is to help with the cost of the care for the cats. There were about 6 cats there at the time. All cats are adoptable so they had just lost a few due to adoptions. They do plan on getting more. Admission $18 13 yr old $15 2-12 yr old Come check out this new cat coffee shop in Grover Beach.

    I LOVED this cat cafe, the people working were so sweet and friendly, you can tell the cats/kittens are very loved here. If I could stay here all day I would! I've been to a couple cat cafes and I will be coming back to this cat cafe every time I'm in town

    I have mixed reviews on this place pertaining to bringing young kids. I'll start with the positives. Lots of parking! That was a pleasant surprise and so important for businesses. Second, it was extremely clean like sparkling clean. I was surprised how clean it even smelt with having cats in there 24/7. Lots of cute cat items to buy and the food and drinks looked super yummy. With that being said I reserved a spot for my 2 year old, 4 year old and myself. For 30 minutes it was $39. I understand businesses need to make money but most places wouldn't charge for a 2 year old. There were only 4 cats and only one came out briefly 5 minutes max. You can't pick up the cats and you're told to just let them come to you. We tried to be respectful of that rule but I honestly just felt like I paid $40 to sit in there and tell my kids not to go up to the cats. There was a worker sitting in the room the whole time and I felt like it would have been nice if she would have tried to get the cats to come down and interact, told us their names, or even what toys they might like. The only thing she told us was to give the cats some space. We found some coloring books, which I had to ask if those were for customers. Again we only had 30 minutes so I felt like with kids that should have been something we were told when entering. We got to go with the owner to see the cats in the other building. That was very nice and she told us we could pet them which they did so we ended on a good note. I might come again with just my 4 year old and give it another chance. There are limited times for young kids and I'm guessing we came at a sleepy time but I was just hoping to have a little more interaction with the cats, especially with these cats being up for adoption.

    After being displaced by the Palisades Fire we were grateful to find an Airbnb in town to gather ourselves. I accidentally stumbled upon the CCC while searching for somewhere to connect WiFi. What a comfort to find a safe space to fill out our FEMA application. This mother-daughter duo is certainly on to something! Cats, coffee, and kindness go a long way. Ps- you can further support their work by purchasing merch and treats!

    This was a great new experience to do with my two kids (ages 10 and 7) and felt so great giving some kitties some extra love for a good cause, while seeing all the different personalities of the cats. It really was a great learning experience with teaching young children to be patient and calm to gain an animal's trust. There is an adorable gift section and quick drinks to grab before heading in. People should remember that these are cats and foster cats to be specific. Don't expect them to be super cuddly and frisky on cue to entertain you and they due take a few minutes to warm up. But they are all adorable and they have a variety of toys that you can tell the cats enjoy and makes it easier for you to interact with them.

    It was our first visit but we will be back to support and a unique thing to do for Valentine's Day. We have many kitties already so weren't looking to adopt but can spend money and spread the word! Our friend we took with us DID adopt a bonded sister pair however. Cozy and fun to enjoy some kitty snuggles and playtime and help with socializing. It would be a great place to bring a book and sip on a warm drink.

    Thirteen bucks to pet a cat. Of course she doesn't tell me that until AFTER I buy a drink, food, and leave her a tip. I felt tricked.

I am a coffee snob and have my own espresso machine at home but love visiting new coffee shops and Tribe Coffee did not disappoint. Was given recommendations by the staff, based on what i usually drink and tried something new and different and I truly enjoyed it. Skip the chain coffee shops and come support this very unique coffeehouse. Will be back! In this visit we had a kids hot chocolate, Honey Rose Latte and Velvet Virtue.

Somehow they really do blend together. Now one would expect the drink to be more green or pink somehow but it's pretty natural, which makes sense with the overall vibe of the place. No artificial colorings or flavorings here. Ham & cheese: The pastries seem to rotate so there isn't a set food menu. They had an assortment of pastries available and my preference leans more savory so a toasted ham and cheese was perfect for me for lunch. Service was friendly and informative - they have a pretty extensive menu but the staff know the menu and can offer recommendations. The ambiance is really what would deter me from coming back. Personally, it's just not my vibe, feels a little bit claustrophobic like I'm in a old beachside cottage or mini barn. The floors are worn and tired and pained this jarring shade of teal. The plate my ham and cheese was served on was a similar shade. Blue is not a color that triggers appetite traditionally so I'm curious as to why this choice was made. If I were to come back I'd probably either sit outside or take my drink to go. Really a bummer because the latte was so good. But again, just personal preference.

Atmosphere: From the outside, it looks like a tiny hole in the wall, but once you step foot onto the patio, you'd realize you've been transformed into this adorable, tranquility space. They have both open air patio and fully cover patio that's perfect even when the weather outside is a little chili. There are even toys and kids book for the little ones in their cover patio. 1 star Customer service: Jaimie, the owner, is one of the most personal and interesting person you'd ever meet. The very first week that I started coming here consistently, I was so surprised when I CALLED, not even ordering in person, to order my usual Dolomitti for the 3rd time in a row, she immediately recognized my voice on the phone and knew my usual preference of coffee ice cubes in my drinks. I soon became the "Dolomitti lady" lol. It still amazes me how she can remember that given all the customers she gets each day. 1 star Quality of coffee/drinks/food: One of the reasons I can't help but keep coming back to Perfetto is the wide range of food and pastry goods that they have to offer. I try not to drink coffee first thing in the morning, knowing it would turn into a very effective laxative. It's definitely a huge bonus that not only does Perfetto offer plenty of sandwiches/paninis/salad options, but they're one of the best I have had. My go to every time is the Tuscany panini. They use sourdough bread from Grover Beach Sourdough, which cannot get better than that. The bread is perfectly pressed and toasted with the perfect crunch and cheese pull. Besides, it's a given that I love the coffee here to keep coming back and ordering the same thing. 2 stars! I don't think I've ever gotten a hot drinks from here, so I can't personally tell if they do latte art or not. However, when the drinks and the food are too good, I could care less about the latte art and keep coming back here at least once or twice a week. 1 star If you're in the area or just passing by, I highly recommend checking out this place. Plus it's conveniently located just right off of 101. So no reason not to. I just wish they stay open later and all 7 days a week! This is the breakdown of my rating for coffee shops: Quality of coffee/drinks/food: up to 2 stars Consistently offer latte art: 1 Star Atmosphere: 1 Star Customer service: 1 Star

    Breakfast Burrito: It's not your typical breakfast burrito. Pressed flat, it's more like a panini…read morein that way but that aspect of it allows the flavors to really blend together. The bacon is cooked perfectly, not too hard, not too soft. The chipotle crema adds some sauciness as well. I'm big on sauce and I'm usually dousing my breakfast burritos in sauce but this one didn't need it. Hojicha: It's hard enough finding a decent matcha in the area (especially coming from the OC) let alone a hojicha. Whoever whisked me the hojicha made me a fresh batch and it really made all the difference. Their hojicha comes unsweetened instead of pre-sweetened so that's already a plus in my book so I could really taste the roasted-ness (in comparison to a matcha, for example). Wasn't too watered down by the milk - the barista who made this one didn't put too much milk in my drink. Matcha: I would pass on this but it could be how it was made. I had the matcha on a different day so it wasn't the same barista. I chose to do this one unsweetened as well. The milk to tea ratio was a bit off, the amount of milk overwhelmed the matcha and the light green color of my matcha made it obvious. I would not order this again. The service is quick and friendly, the staff knows their menu inside and out and are able to make recommendations if you're unsure about what to get. I've been here on two different occasions. The first time it was more of a quiet day. There aren't enough outlets so I wish there were just more of those. The second time was on a busier Saturday. There wasn't enough room to walk around the most of the people didn't seem to have enough spatial awareness to allow others to go around them. I'd go on a quieter day if you want to be able to enjoy the space.
