Gem City Catfe

My teen and I went to the Catfe yesterday (small business Saturday) for the first time! Yummy chai (for me) and bubble tea (for her) They have such an amazing set up. I love that they have resident cats and cats for adoption. 🥰
If you love cats I'd highly recommend checking it out. 10/10 would recommend! ❤️

First time here and I loved it. The mocha coffee I had was really good, in a fancy mug even. I think it's a wonderful idea and a good way to give to the animals. It's not very big so I do recommend a reservation for the cat room. You can even join for $25 and get reduced cat room rates. Great job guys!

The staff is kind and helpful, and this is a great business & mission to support.
My recommendation would be to avoid going on a weekend afternoon, however, if you want to pet the cats. If you do go then, be prepared to mostly observe the cats and other patrons. When I was there for a 3pm reservation, most of the six cats at the time were irritable and seemed quite tired of people interacting with them, which is fair, because there were a lot of people (about 10) in a relatively small space with the cats. The best part for me was the coffee.

I've been here many, many times for the food and drink, which is always on-point, and it's nice to get to watch the kitties while reading or working at my table downstairs. I usually get a coffee drink, but their other options like their bubble-teas are also delicious! The staff are always super quick and helpful. I have only gone into the cat room once, but the process was easy, and all the cats were playful and well-cared-for. The room was so clean that even as a person with pretty bad cat allergies, I was hardly bothered even with being in there for the full hour. Definitely stop by if you can - I recommend reserving a spot online because it can sometimes get a little crowded during certain peak hours.

The Catfé is one of my favorite neighborhood spots! The drinks and treats are great - I had buttered rum chai and a gingerbread macaron the other day, and both were delicious. The staff are consistently friendly and helpful, even when it's clear they're super busy. Through all the ups and downs of the pandemic, they've always prioritized the safety and happiness of their cats and their customers. The cat lounge is a really comfortable place to hang out and meet the kitties without stress or pressure, and they're all well cared for. I'll be back many times!

This was my first experience at a cat café. Café wise, they have a great selection of drinks and some small pastry items.

They have seating that is free from cats so you can go for a normal cafe experience.

As for the cat part, it was cool seeing all their different personalities come into play. There are definitely some cats that will try to steal your food.

Overall, it's a fun and charming café.

What's better than a super cute little coffee shop downstairs and an art gallery upstairs? ADOPTABLE CATS! This place has all of the above and also has official Gem City Catfe gear so you can rep for this super cool business and help get some feline friends a forever home.

Went for the first time and loved it 😻 the bananas foster latte and iced chai tea were great, and we loved that they use reusable cups instead of plastic inside. Obviously the kitties are so fun, and it was a fun experience!

I want to go there every day! Spending time with cats makes me very happy, this is my first time in the place and I enjoyed drinking coffee and playing with cats, I want to visit this place again

Loved their special turmeric latte, and cats are so cute. Need to book in advance to get into the cat room. Wasn't sure where to park at first but it worked out. Stairs to get up into house, my mom was able to get up with help. Definitely will return.
