The Cosy Cat Cafe

We had a lovely time at this cafe with our daughter (aged 10)on a rainy morning in October. The lady working at the time - I believe her name was Tracy - was friendly and knowledgeable about the cats. We spent a lovely hour here having cake, coffee and cat cuddles (you have to wait a while for them to ‘warm’ to you)! It is expensive but you’re covering the cost of taking care of the cats when you read their website, which is totally fair enough we felt. Recommend if you’re visiting Herne Bay and are cat lovers!

We had a brilliant time today and despite not pre-booking, the café was more than accommodating with a lovely mocha, tea and some delicious warm chocolate fudge cake served with cream - yum! The staff were very friendly and were keen to know where we'd come from and what drew us to the café. The cats were so friendly and every one had a backstory which the staff were only too pleased to talk about. Our favourites were Panda, Bella and Poppy and of course Kiki who was a very sweet lap cat who introduced herself to us towards the end of our visit. The café is a great size spread across two floors, there is a small gift shop and you are welcome to explore the courtyard and play with the cats as much as you like. The menu is extensive and caters for all tastes and appetites, including gluten free and vegan. The cats are very well looked after and have plenty of space to have some alone time if they wish, though they were only too happy to hang around for attention from all the visitors during our time there or have a snooze in their beds, watching the world go by. If you're a fan of cats or just wish to have some delicious food in a quirky setting, this is definitely the place to be - highly recommended!

Great atmosphere, lovely place to go for afternoon tea and spend time with the cats. The cats are just loving life. They are so relaxed love going outside in the sunshine. Plenty of places to sunbathe and inside they can sit in the window and watch the world go by. Upstairs they have their cosy little beds. I had a tea and cake, and 45 mins with the cats which is £8.95, so quite reasonable. The cake was a lovely double chocolate cake, with chocolate sauce and lovely fresh cream. Lot's of great things to buy cat related as well in the little shop, I brought socks, spoon, bag, teaspoon holder, all cat related of course great prices. The time seemed to go so quick though, it was lovely to see all the beautiful cats. Definitely recommend it and would go again. Just make sure you book in advance to avoid disappointment.
