I love cat cafes! This tiny little cafe is bursting with love for cats! You can choose if you want a 30 minute or 1 hour stay for a super fair price. Then you go into the cat room and get to sit and play with the precious kitties! The cafe staff were really nice and understanding when I made a mistake with scheduling. Support your local cat cafe!!
Great place to bring a kid to pet cats and maybe take one home with you. I didn't take one home. Took my kids here to drink coffee and pet some cats. Made a reservation online, super easy. Also sounds like you can call in too. Staff is friendly and made our drinks right away. Went in and played with the cats. Cuddle some and had some awwwww moments. So if you're watching a kid or need to kill an hour I would recommend this place. I didn't have any of their food but also did want ti giver them a bad review for not having them.
Wonderful place! Reserved a thirty minute slot with the cats and had a blast. Staff at the counter told us that we were the first visitors of the day and the cats would likely be very cuddly, which was definitely right. Cute, clean, and very enjoyable. We live several hours away but will be making the effort to stop by every time we are back in the area, it's just that good.
Let’s start with what I liked… ✨The drink menu was comprehensive with something for everyone and cute creative names and combos. ✨The gift area was stocked with lots of treasures for cat lovers, and I picked out two stickers that I adore. ✨I loved to see the calendar packed with lots of fun events including yoga, tarot, collage, and more! ✨ 817 cats had been adopted to date! I love the mission of this place and the way they are finding homes for their cats Now for the rest..: 🚫 the cats seemed tired and stressed, I heard and saw three separate cats hiss at people to tell them to back off, one hissed at me when I approached quietly and extended my hand for her to sniff…. 🚫 the space is so so small and there are barely any places for the cats to hide and escape unwanted attention or rest, it would be great if they had more high ground spaces and hidey holes to observe on their own terms 🚫 there were so many people let in at a time and barely any cats, which seemed to lead to overstimulated cats (hence the hissing) everyone was fighting over the attention of a few cats 🐱 many of whom seemed to want to nap…it was awkward to sit in such a small space filled with people and very few cats Overall I loved the mission of this cat cafe, I think the overall idea is a good one, but the cats seemed like they needed a break from constant company, and I wish they had limited the amount of people per visit. I’ve been to other cat cafes where the cats had ample space to hide and take higher ground, the ratio of cats to people made more sense, and the cats were in good spirits. I think this place has a lot of potential, but we did leave early because it was upsetting to see so many disregulated cats.
I love everything about this place. The coffee was the best I've had since being in Grand Rapids, the atmosphere was amazing, and they had a huge variety of souvenirs for purchase. Most of the cats were very sweet and cuddly, and some weren't, but that's just cats for ya. Absolutely coming back and would highly recommend to any cat lovers or coffee lovers.
This was such a cool place to hang out for a bit. The coffee and service were great. Hanging out with the cats for thirty minutes was great!
