The real stars here are the cats — a delightful group of eight, each with their distinct personalities. Customers rave about how friendly and affectionate the kitties are, making your visit all the more enjoyable.

Such a great way to spend some time. I got there at noon and the cats were all so fun, friendly and adorable. I grabbed a drink from downstairs and headed up. The girl that worked there is very nice. I purchased some treats and the cats went crazy over them. Several sat in my lap (make sure you give them each a turn to sit with you!). Overall a great experience highly recommend.

Kitties were super cute, friendly, and affectionate. Large room for all eight of them (and the human customers). Highly recommend for cat lovers!

Spent an hour here with my daughter. We made a reservation online ahead of time and paid in the store. If you’re like me, it helps to know what to expect. We did not have any trouble with the check-in. The one staff person available was very friendly, even though there’s clearly lots happening with the café and the store. She escorted us upstairs to a very large room where there were 8 cats, lots of cat toys, beautiful plants, a restroom, tables and chairs (many types of seating). We washed our hands and then my daughter sat down to wait for the cats to come to her. Some did and some didn’t, but they’re obviously well taken care of. The treat machine needs 2 quarters on EACH side ($1 total) to purchase a little plastic ball with treats inside. I’m mentioning this because even though the woman clearly explained it and there were written directions, my daughter (almost 12) got confused. Each ball had enough treats to give one to each cat. Bob was treat-aggressive (for a cat). We had a lovely hour. I was anxious in not knowing what to expect (and then being worried that we broke the treat machine), but I will be able to relax next time because now I know how the whole thing works. My daughter loves cats, but we cannot have them, so this was a great experience for her and she’s looking forward to returning. This is a truly lovely idea and the shop looked super cute. We will have to come with enough time to browse next time.

This is the most AMAZING cat cafe that I’ve ever been to! Hard to believe I had this huge space with 8 super friendly cats, all to myself! They have ginormous bean bags to lounge on with the kitties. More people need to know about this awesome place! If I wasn’t visiting from California, I’d be here all the time!

Oh I just wanted to take them all home with me! What great place and these cats are very well loved and so friendly. Bring quarters for the cat treats machine. Also note there’s only about 4 tiny pieces in a cat treats bubble and these cats go crazy for treats lol. You might wanna spend at least $7-10 so they all get some treats. I can’t wait to go back and see them all again. Best serotonin boost ever!

We visited Cat Show today and it was such a special experience! This space is probably the most comfortable I’ve experienced in a cat cafe, with swinging chairs, giant bean bags, and comfy chairs and couches. The kitties are also super friendly and playful. We enjoyed a cozy afternoon playing and snuggling with everyone! Mildew, Alexis, and David were the most active and curious (they tried to get into our chocolate we bought but we kept it well-protected!), but each kitty enjoyed pets and cuddles. I couldn’t recommend Cat Show more - definitely worth one (or more!) trips!

Probably the best cat cafe we've been to! This place was perfect for getting a cat fix. The space was stylish and airy; the floor to ceiling windows clearly made the cats feel like the rulers of the whole shopping complex. The cats had a great mix of personalities, ranging from those who preferred to chill out and get petted to ones who wanted to play constantly. They're all cute and definitely living the good life!
