The Cat Cafe
472 Third Avenue, San Diego, CA 92101
The first cat cafe opened in Taipei in 1998, where it became a popular stop for Japanese tourists, who brought the idea back home. Because many apartments in Japan forbid pets, the cafes became oases to relieve the stress of urban life. The Cat Cafe serves coffee drinks and pastries from local companies including West Coast Coffee Roasters, Cafe Virtuoso, Bread & Cie, The Cravory, and Adam’s Lunch Box. The stars of the show, about a dozen well-socialized foster cats, live in a room separate from the food service area. Pet and play to your heart’s content, and if you fall in love, the kitties are available for you to adopt.
