Absolutely loved this place! Never been here before but it's run really well, you can tell the people who work there are super authentic chill ™️ ppl! The drinks my partner and I both picked were SO good, there was plenty of seating for us to wait, little trinkets to look at and most importantly a huuuuge window into the cat lounge area. The kitties were mostly sleepy since we were there early noon. They have plenty of high up space where they can escape to when overstimulated (which we luv for them), little hidey holes and staff watching closely. Literally on my list of regular places for when I return to the area.
Vegan Restaurant
Aristocat Cafe + Tea House

Fully vegan
Editor synopsis · 0 reviews
Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

What a beautiful way to pick a kitty for adoption! Kudos to the owner, Amanda, for having the vision to bring the cafe to life. The entire experience was phenomenal, having time to meet each of the kittens and hoping one would find me as special as I found them - a 10 month old named Feisty came home with me today and it may just be that his best friend Mickey picks me this weekend!!!

This place was so much fun! The coffee is incredible! And the cats are clearly loved and well cared for. I wish we lived close enough to go regularly. We will have to settle for every time we get away as a girls trip.
