Tucked away into an unassuming suburb, this breakfast place is a must visit. We went to the black cat cafe on a Sunday morning and had a great time. The ambience is very fun and we had a great time playing with the kitties in the reception / gift shop area.We were seated almost immediately and our server was polite, friendly and funny! We shared a Garfield sampler and coffee and enjoyed our meal thoroughly.The art on the walls and the way the cafe is laid out was very charming. We will be back for sure.

Don't go here unless you want to take home a cat! Cute place with tasty food! The people that work here are amazing and have spent a lot of time helping us find the perfect cat. It can run a little expensive, but all the proceeds go to their cat adoption charity. There are many vegan options, which is nice. The pancake board is a hit with my kids. A great neighborhood spot!

Amazing establishment! Not only is the food so freaking delicious, it's a great place to just sit and do some work! Plus they're a non profit organization- 80% of their sales goes to rescue organizations and helping pets in need and staff work completely off of tips so be sure to tip generously! They have a rotation of available cats to foster or adopt right when you walk in, theyre so sweet and so tempting to take home if I wasnt already a foster mom! Cat themed everything on the was to the little items they sell at the front! But let me tell you about these gluten free pancakes. I actually had to question if they were gluten free because they were that good! Fluffy, flavorful and huge! I ordered lunch to go without even hesitating! I got the turkey panini on gluten free bread with homemade potato salad (the good stuff, not too much mayo!) And the turkey was like thick carved turkey no deli slices, with chunks of caramelized onions! Oh they have a whole selection of ice cream too! I cant wait to come back!Vegetarian options: Vegan pancakes!Dietary restrictions: Tons of gluten free options and celiac friendly!

What a fun and different dinner experience - we had really good burgers and grilled cheese (and ice cream). The staff was so nice and of course, kittens!Kid-friendliness: Our kids (5 & 2) were welcomed!

Delicious Devon treasure for vegans and non-vegans. Flavorful and made with care. The Vegan Garfield sampler let's you try everything with just the right amount of each. Real flowers on the table and fun decor. Support a rescue with the kitty-themed gifts too!

Stop. Do not look ANY further for bfast or lunch. @google - I need you to add more star options to google reviews bc this place deserves 15 stars. INCREDIBLE food, the sous chef came out and took our order then cooked our food. Feels like home. And there are CATS. ADORABLE KITTENS in their well-kept and clean cages!!!! 15/10, coming back again!!!!!!

What a wonderful place to enjoy our Sunday brunch!!! The staff volunteer their time to work at the Cafe, so please be sure to tip them well. The proceeds from the meals fund the animal shelter. It was definitely not easy to leave without taking one of the adorable and adoptable kittens with us. The food was wonderful. I thoroughly enjoyed the Caribbean French Toast with Mango Butter... Just what my sweet tooth needed. Wifey tried the Vegan Banana French Toast. She enjoyed it so much that she forgot to give me a taste! I guess we'll have to go back again...

I think this nonprofit cat cafe/restaurant is such a great idea and I was very happy to support the cats! There was a lot of kindness from our server and out food came out quickly. The cats were inside of large cages and not walking around so we were not able to truly interact/play with them, but I imagine this is because of health code standards. I got a vegan sampler plate and my friend got french toast and we both liked our meals. It would be nice to see more vegan options for future visits. Recommend this place!

This place was so cute. I know the reviews talk about it being a great cause but only mediocre food but that wasn't the experience for my party of 8. We all loved our breakfast and especially appreciated how accommodating they were to all our special dietary needs. I loved that I could get greens as a side for breakfast and skip the bread and they had soy creamer. The staff were super friendly and helpful. And of course we loved that our money went to a good cause. But I would come back here just for the food and service too.

We were the first people into the restaurant on a Saturday morning. I ordered French toast and my wife ordered 1 egg and their homemade biscuit. My French toast came out just warm and my wife’s egg was cold and so was her biscuit. On top of that just when breakfast arrived some lady stops by the table, interrupted our conversation and wanted us to listen to her talk about some cause. I asked her straight away if she was the owner and she said no. I asked her if she could let us eat our breakfast since it just arrived and she made a face like she was insulted and walked away. She completely ruined our atmosphere and completely destroyed our conversation.

What a CUTE place. A must visit for cat lovers.It is so cozy inside with lots of cat memorabilia. Food was fine and respectable for a breakfast/lunch place. The only thing I would change is update the hours and look into providing serious coffee and grab and go items.I was in town at the horse show for the week and it was not open in the earlier morning. (7-9AM.) Horse people are always up early and I drove past it everyday wanting a cup of coffee or tea. Will visit for sure next year!

I was not pleased with the tofu scramble. It was very soggy with an off puting curry flavor, though I love curry spice.Both of us ordered tofu scramble and we were nauseous all day after eating it.They charged 5.99 for 3 slices of tempeh bacon.It was very disturbing too see live black cats in cages. I felt bad for the catsI will never return there for brunch or any other meal.

Cute little place with good food and lots of breakfast options for vegans- which is hard to find! Quite busy on a weekend morning though. Not a lot of tables, so the staff was a bit pushy about rushing us out as soon as we finished our last bite. I understand the reasoning, but the approach could have been less abrasive. Overall fun experience, and I will definitely go back.Vegetarian options: Lots of options for veggie/vegans including tofu scramble, vegan sausage, and tempeh bacon.Parking: The parking kit is very small so be prepared to find a spot on the street.

This place is cuter than a button. The staff are always super kind and friendly. There's kittens in the lobby area!! (What more could you want??)But wait there's more!The food is DELICIOUS! and they have multiple vegan options of foods that are hard to find dairy free (I'm dairy free) let alone vegan! Vegan pancakes and friend toast and they have real maple syrup (there is a charge but ofc it's worth it bc the rest of the prices are so reasonable for such good food).The coffee is even good!Only downside is no lattes, but they have no issue with you bringing over something from next door...Dietary restrictions: Lots of vegan options and the staff is very considerate of allergies.Wheelchair accessibility: They don't have handicap parking but if you can park close enough (or be dropped off) the front door has no steps. There are welcome mats out front but the staff is so helpful I'm willing to bet they would move them in a heartbeat.Main concern is there's a parking space right in front of the door and they might be too close. Again (I know it's not optimal) I'm willing to bet the staff would ask who's car it is and ask them to make room if needed.There's also wheelchair accessible outdoor seating that may be easier than inside given it can get a little tight inside.

The food's always great and proceeds support a great cause (cat rescue)! My personal faves: vegan banana french toast, apple honey mustard grilled cheese, omelettes - I usually get goat cheese, bacon, and caramelized onion in mine. And the desserts are amazing too :)

Everything was perfect. We came for Mother’s Day lunch and we are glad we signed up for it. Food was awesome, the staff was warm and welcoming. We went for the experience and left with inspiration to adopt a new cat companion.We will be back for sure and will look into volunteering too.

Cute atmosphere. A two egg breakfast with toast and bacon coast me $11+Didn’t seem worth it. Plate was served with about six small potatoes and toast looked like it was from a mini loaf of bread. I get better bang for my buck from diners.

Went for mother's day. It was buffet style. Service was a bit shotty but they were busy. They had kittens outside for people to look at instead of inside. Love the decor in this place. Owner is so nice and sweet!Parking: They only have 4 parking spots so if it's busy you have to find a spot on the street

This cafe was delightful! The staff are volunteers (who take tips!) and the profits from the cafe go to PALS to rescue cats. The food was delicious, the coffee was great. Hot tip: it’s a tiny space, and they take reservations. Open table charges per person to reserve and takes an hour or so to post the reservation- call the cafe to save money and help them plan for your visit!
