If I could give more than 5 stars I could. All the cats are super adorable!! Julie especially was so friendly and lovely and I hope she finds a forever home soon! The cats are in an extremely clean and relaxing environment with super cute beach themed decorations and music! The measures and precautions taken for COVID-19 were admirable and other places should take notes. The owner was super nice and easy to talk to, I will definitely be coming back as soon as I can I wish the best for this place, the cats, and the owners.

For those that dont understand, Cats are not dogs (And I am a dog person) if you come to the Cat Café is to watch them, play if they feel like or just chill with the cats and their music. Also, if they are fed with Catnip (thats a sedative for them) so, for that reason youll see them sleeping entirely and just ignoring their surroundings. If you come to the Café, you gotta understand the money is to feed them and their veterinary services. Also, it helps them to get adopted. I went here with my partner and the cats are amazing. I wish we were able to see the ones in the back, but they are adapting or they simply do not like people, and you have to respect their territory.The food was great and the lemonade. Loved talking to the owner and the story of the place. I hope it can continue open. I made my part. Visit, if you love animals. They do love being pet, but you gotta ask the cats before doing it so.

Great place to chill, get away, eat some good food. Looking forward to coming back with my coworkers. The place has a nice feel to it.

A must for all cat lovers. I just stumbled upon this place and went inside. I spent 30 amazing minutes with friendly, relaxed cats who love getting attention and belly rubs. You could easily see they were loved and being well taken care of. The litter and food were in a different space, so there was no odor whatsoever, and the staff was super nice.

Cats have been loved and revered for centuries. Not everyone is lucky enough to live with a cat though. This cafe makes it possible to still enjoy their company. They also have a really outstanding collection of menu items that are just perfect for getting through the afternoon and early evening. Anyone on the go looking for a little affection and a tasty treat should do themselves and favour and drop in.

I love cats but I am also so allergic, but that definitely did not stop me from petting every cat I could in that room. They are all such sweethearts, and I would go back 100x if I could. Food and drinks were good, but I wish there were more drink options, as I am not a coffee person.The entire space is kept so clean, you would never know there were 20+ cats living there! Had minimal allergies even with being in a room full of cats!

Miamis first ever cat cafe!!! All of the kittens are adorable, friendly, and adoptable. $15 donation required to go spend time with them. I was happy to support a good cause. The hibiscus tea and small spinach and artichoke pie were good snacks. The cafe itself was clean and well-maintained.

Love, love this Cafe friendly staff and friendly felines who are sweet with wonderful characters well worth a visit and it helps a good cause also.

The Cat Cafe is a must if youre a cat lover and enjoy perfectly fresh brewed coffee. As a vegan, the avocado toast was terrific (had two orders) and the whole cat thing was great. Enjoy!

Great service. I am not a cat person, but everyone else in my family is, So I was dragged... And the menu is simple but good stuff. The espresso was excellent, as was the avocado toast... And everything else looks great. I couldnt imagine how to enjoy food with cats, and heard you had to pay. Brilliant. You enter a simple cozy clean cute Cafe with 5 tables. The cat den runs the length of the cafe, and is enclosed, and you can pay to go sit with them, or just view them from the cafe - from the tables or a row of stools along the cat area.

If you are a cat lover like myself. This is true neighborhood gem. Cafe owner Selena help out local stray cat and paying it forward. She really had it all figure out, the shoes wrap, air purifier, ceiling tunnel.Well done !

Wow! Great coffee and extremely clean and well decorated place. I thought it would have cast running around and be smelly, but quite the contrary. They have the cats in their own separated area where they seem to be having a great time. They are doing great work! Also, the coffee is great!

I had the great fortune of stumbling upon The Cat Cafe. I had been to many other cat cafes in other cities and had often felt disappointed. The Cat Cafe South Beach is unlike any of these experiences.The space is huge, both the cafe and the cat area. It is cleaner than almost any home I’ve ever been to with cats, there’s literally just the smell of fresh coffee. The coffee and treats at the cafe are good enough even if you don’t care to play with the cats, but why would you not?!The play area for the cats is adorably curated with toys and cat lounging, and has plenty of room for humans to sit.All of the cats are miraculously friendly and social with you. They are up for adoption and if I wasn’t jumping on a flight back to NYC I would have swiped this sweet orange baby. Amazing place, thank you for this experience!!

Travelling and miss your pet? Go here. A storefront on Washington Avenue near Espanola Way, there is a coffee bar on one side and a huge cat room on the other. You can make a small donation to help the cats and then enter the cat room to hang out and/or play with the cats and kittens. Lots of furniture and toys to make it comfortable and fun. Bring your laptop for the coolest workspace in town. For less than the price of a South Beach cocktail, you can spend an hour with the cats and help support their adoption efforts.

Peaceful for cats, kids and adults alike. Money spent goes to a good cause.Note that there may be a waiting period to meet the cats. Closed Tuesdays.Well worth visiting.

If you love cats, this is the place for you! It was so lovely to get to spend the afternoon with some loving kittens who wanted to play! The café has great people working there, and the coffee and cheese bread were delicious!

I find this place really cute . Nice and relaxing music, lovely cats and great service. I was looking for a quiet place to study, here in Miami Beach is a little bit hard but this place is perfect. Its really clean, the cats have there one space.

Awesome place. If you like cat and good coffee you have to stop here

I’m not sure who is in charge of answering phones for this establishment, but they certainly have a lot to learn in the ways of customer service. I’d been wanting to visit here for about a month and finally had a chance to inquire, and the conversation was awful. Whoever this person is has an attitude and was very short with me. They slammed the phone in my ear. Could have at least said to have a nice day! I see that usually reviews get a response from this business so hopefully someone is reading this and can clarify to me why this event occurred. You want to know how you can service better? Maybe try not to be rude to potential visitors. I’ve read the other negative reviews and in regards to that even this person is rude and refuses to take any responsibility or even consider that the negative review might be accurate. Appalling and argumentative behavior from a business owner. I’m inclined to believe that whoever owns this place has an attitude that is indicative of what reflected during my conversation with her. Seriously disappointed. I will be visiting the other cat cafe that is opening March 1st and very much hope the communication skills there are appropriate and of a professional manner. Have a nice day!

Such a cool idea to share a coffee next to fostered cats. It was very clean and enjoyable. They had 87 cats adopted through the cafe last year! Awesome! There is a $10 fee which was sad, but the money is used to keep the animals clean, housed, fed, and healthy. One thing to keep in mind is that they only let you enter every 30 minutes so we had to wait to enter.

We love this place so much. We happened walk pass this cafe and my daughter screamed when saw it. The place is super clean, friendly, good drink and omg all the cats are super cute. We keep come back there everyday until we done with our vacation. Recommend for all cat lovers

Super awesome experience, i definitely would make time to stop by here if you’re visiting the area. Wish i could have taken one of the babies home with me!

Lovely place. Cats are from shelter/found and can be adopt. All are absolutely gorgeous and friendly. Staff really cares about them. Its very clean and you can have a very good coffee !

Amazing atmosphere, the kitties are well adjusted and well taken care of. Highly recommend! Incredible place!

One of the best cat cafes I’ve been to. All the cats are up for adoption and there were about 25 cats at the cafe. The cafe is also very clean.

If you love cats and kittens you can’t but help love this cafe. The cats are separate to the actual cafe - you have to pay to go in and play with them - which makes it all much more hygienic and means if you have a tuna sandwich you can keep it!

Friendly staff & playful cats running around or napping. Food was normal cookies, muffins, and various baked goods. Cats are rescues waiting for a forever home & the donation fee to enter the cat room is well worth it.

One of the highlights of my visit to Miami. These cats are well loved and the owner of the place is a fabulous woman. Drinks and baked goods are delicious. While it’s quirky, this is a serious operation. If you don’t plan to respect the rules, this is not the place for you but if you truly have a heart for cats and are looking to adopt, this is your place!

This place is so wonderful!!!! The food and coffeeis great, the cats are in their own room and the fee for 30 minutes of play with adorable kitties is only $10! I have to say i was amazes at the fact that there is NO BAD SMELL!!! Usually cat cafes have a faint smell of litter that is bearable, this place is INCREDIBLY CLEAN and odorless!!!! Only the smell of good fresh coffee and yummy food. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Unique concept and fun design. Actual cats that you can go and pet very cool and fun for adults, kids, and especially cat lovers. Worth a stop by if you want a coffee, pastries, or just a change from the average coffee shop. Very cool place

Adorably adoptable cats that are too cute not to pet!! Good treats and cute trinkets. Must go!!

Extraordinary staff that genuinely care about their cause. Loved talking with them about their cats and their business. Enjoyed a great cup of coffee while playing with a lovely group of well socialized cats. They provide them with a lovely space to play, sleep and explore. Check out the cat Cafe next time youre in Miami!

Absolutely fabulous place magical come visit okay with kiddies and if you fall in love adopt one. The staff is phenomenal and the kiddies are super sweet. Great company. Ohhh try the coconut guava cookie. A no brainer. ️

The sweetest little kitties ever! They were so calm and looked so happy to be there

A very friendly, relaxing, and comfortable space. The owner is incredibly kind and welcoming. As well as the cats, there are yummy looking desserts and a cute gift shop. Id recommend booking in advance!

Clean and lovely place. Staff are friendly. Many cats well taken care of.

Extremely lovely café with an adorable, warm atmosphere. The owner was very passionate about their café and treated us with much hospitality, as did the workers. The kitties were all a mixture of sleepy, playful, and affectionate. Theres even some calm ambient music inside the kitty room! All of the cats are up for adoption if youd like to take a kitty to a loving home. Beautiful spot! Had a great time with many smiles.

Had a really nice quick visit, even though my child was not able to visit with the cats directly. Parents, just note that your children must be age 6 or older to enter the cat area. The staff was very welcoming and friendly regardless and next time we will stay longer and taste whats on the menu.

Cute little cafe with coffees and baked goods. Had a pretty decent cup of coffee (strong and flavorful). I had a few terrible coffees on SoBe so it was refreshing to get a decent cup here. The cats are adorable. $10 for 30 minutes with their foster cats. Worth it

Amazing place! Such a friendly staff and a beautiful enclosure for the kitties. Great coffee!! Definitely recommend!

If you love coffee and animals definitely check this place out!

A great little shop that rescues cats off the streets, get them healthy and are adoptable. Totally worth a visit!

Cool idea to include cats. Food is pretty good and lots of bakery goods. Very fun to play with the cats while youre there.

We visited on 8/18/19 and had a wonderful time. We enjoyed two espressos, two chicken empanadas, and a free slice of cake (for my birthday-- thank you again!!). We then spent some time in the kitty room, where we were able to interact with about 25 cats. Theyre all very sweet and well cared for, and you could tell that the owner puts her heart and soul into taking care of those cats. Id definitely recommend visiting here, as it was really fun and informative!

Meow meooowww mauuu...Pun besides, I really enjoyed the hour I spent there. They had 26 cats, which is a lot. Most cats are former street cats that went through a vet checkup and were socialized - all adoptable. The donation for staying one hour was $15, but the money goes to this great project. The cats have a separate room where they can go to if they are no longer interested in human interaction. So the ones that were in the public room were definitely up for cuddles ans play.

As a cat cafe, this place is great. There are tons of cats that are taken care of rather well and fun to play with. Additionally, the staff are great and offer fantastic cat conversation if you want to talk feline facts. My only qualm is the coffee here - definitely pass on it and just go for the cats.

Wonderful place. Acts as a foster home for south beach’s community cats and their care is top priority which is great to see. Cafe side is nice too.

They have tons of cats. Do I really need to justify my 5 star rating any further? Lol. The staff is nice and the environment is clean and nice looking. Great place to hang out if youre a cat lover.

Excellent idea. And i am happy that place lkle this exist.and i hope all cats will be one day adopted and fine forever home ♡

What a wonderful experience and great community support for the kitties of South Beach. I very much enjoyed my time at the cafe. It was my first experience at a cat cafe and it did not disappoint. This place is a must see for locals and tourist. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and a delight. Thank you for helping cats find their furever homes and the community of Miami.

Really great time at Cat Cafe. Nice music, cats living good life!️

Cafe part has good drinks and food items. Cat area is super clean and full of kitties looking for a forever home.

Saw all these cats fast asleep in the window of this place, how tranquil it looked.

Well, where to begin? Delicious food, fabulous coffee, and best of all, so many cats! Must be the best place in South Beach for cat lovers to go!

Needed some cat time with my husband and I enjoyed it so much. Its good to give love to these cats while they wait for their furrever home.

Amazing place! Loved my experience there.

Absolutely wonderful. Great work and great cookies

Such a sweet cafe with a good cause at heart. Delicious coffee and small bites. I ordered the avocado toast and it was an overpriced piece of toasted white bread with a schmear of premade guac on it. The staff is so sweet and Id return for the coffee, cats and would try some of the unique gluten free treats.

Such a cute place! Cats are adoptable! Friendly staff!

Best place in the universe ️

The cats were soooo purrfect. There was a lil baby with a short tail, he was my favorite. Was he born like that? Coffee and cookies were great too.

Wonderful and nice cats! So glad the donations go towards supporting these cats!

Amazing place!! Clean, gorgeous, yummy food, and the kitties are all so chill & happy!! Thank you!

Lovely owner doing good for the local cat populations. Cats are happy and its a nice quiet place to relax

Yes a Cafe with a place next door to pet and play with cats. Fun for the cat lover.

Beautiful place. Its a mini Oasis filled with cats - very therapeutic and relaxing. They have soft music playing and knowing my money goes to a good cause feels great. I will be back. Definitely come check it out!

I visited the cafe yesterday. Had an amazing experience the cats are so well looked after and have lots to keep them entertained. If I wasnt from England I would have wanted to have taken them all home! The owner is a lovely lady. Keep up the good work

Great coffee even better cat cuddles.

A really nice quiet place within the busy south beach area

My favorite place in Miami Beach. Wish I could visit every weekend! Come here to pet cats and eat yummy baked goods with great coffee. Love this place so much and I’m so happy there’s finally a cat cafe in Miami.

I have been there 4 times and it gives me pleasure to see the environment in which the cats are. The place is very neat, the background music is very relaxing and the cats look clean, healthy and well fed. For me it is a pleasure to pay $10 knowing that it is a donation for the welfare of cats.God bless them for doing such a rewarding job.

Very interesting concept. There is an entrance fee to pet the kittens, the cats are available for adoption and the staff is extremely nice and patient. I went there with my daughters and the lady who explained us the cafes rules was very patient, nice and knowledgeable. I will be returning.

Wow! Amazing place. Quiet, calm, great vibe. Very friendly staff. The art is wonderful as well.

Loved playing with the rescue kitties! Super cute atmosphere, and its for a great cause!

Awesome place to go if youre in South Beach and miss your cat(s) at Home or of you love cats but cant have any for whatever reason. They always have between 25 and 30 cats in the Purradise and every one of them is sweet and adorable in their own way. I can recommend going there whenever youre in the beach. Yummy treats for humans and cats as well as cat gifts and merch are also available for purchase! Oh and not to forget their Purr-lattes class on Saturday mornings where you can do instructed pilates that is cat inspired and exercised with all the cats in the Purradise.

The pastries are really good and the cars are so cute and friendly! They will try to sneak and eat your cake, though, so be mindful! All of the cats were well socialized and most of them wanted to play! There was a mix of older cats and kittens. The place looks and smells great, and the staff is very nice. Definitely recommend having a visit if you want to show some cats love.

Great concept to save the kitties!

This place is truly purr-fect! What a wonderful assortment of cats to be entertained by and they have such distinct personalities. It feels like a stretch of beach with the kitties in charge. The cat boutique in the back is really cute as well. A truly magical place to get lost in even if you are stopping in for a quick coffee. I highly recommend it!

Clean, tons of cool cats, and the cold brew was great. Well worth my time and will definitely go back

Very good cozy shop with cats behind the glass. Drinks with no latte art but tasted yummy. Customer service from barista is pro!

Homeless cats and kittens on show behind glass windows from the pavement outside the cafe and from inside. You can donate and play with the cats for a few minutes. They have re-homed 49 cats in the last three months alone. Its lovely to watch the kittens playing and the older cats relaxing in the sun coming in through the window. Plus, its a cafe and you can buy coffee and cake while you smile.

Great service, friendly staff cute cats. If you can donate, then donate it goes to a great cause. Coffee was subpar and lukewarm

I am beyond disappointed. After following the creation/opening of this cat cafe for nearly a year online, I was so excited to have a visit with my daughter. I checked their website ahead of time, and it clearly stated we like little humans and we ask that humans under the age of 11 be accompanied by an adult human. Sounded great to me! I drove 40 minutes to South Beach with my daughter and got her very excited to pet the kitties. When we arrived, the cafe was empty. I told the attendant that I wanted to pay the donation fee and visit with the cats. She informed me that my daughter was too young, and apparently there is a MINIMUM AGE OF 6 YEARS to be admitted. We were very disheartened and left. Please update your website to more honestly reflect your current policies. Im sure many other people will make this mistake, thinking it might be a fun and educational experience to take their little ones...

Such an amazing place. We stopped in here after seeing the cats in the window. For a donation, you can enter the kitten room and hang out with a group of former street cats. The staff was kind and very helpful. They informed us that there are more cats than people on the island and this is one of the ways to help place cats in loving homes. I hope anyone who misses their cats while on vacation stops in for some playtime and kitten love. And anyone who lives here stops by to bring home a furry friend.

Love the concept, all are rescue animals and many will find homes. Very friendly people, some are volunteers. Only suggestion is to place additional seating for an even more relaxing environment. There is seating but much of it is already in use by people/cats or is not placed in the vicinity of where the cats happen to be. Maybe some type of folding seat so you could move around and take your seat with you? It would be better than sitting on the floor while sipping coffee.

THE BEST CAT CAFE IN SOUTH FLORIDA. My husband and I love it here so much! The atmosphere, the playpen, the cats... Its all such a lovely, calming experience within clean and cute quarters. The owner is a pleasant woman who clearly prioritizes the safety and comfort of the cats above all else.

I went in and saw signs saying to please buy something in order to go in with the cats. I bought a $5 tea to see the cats for just a couple mins and was told AFTER you need to pay a $10 donation. That’s complete false advertising and definitely made me feel taken advantage of. Just be upfront and tell people BEFORE they order and it wouldn’t have been a problem whatsoever.I would of paid the donation and just not bought a drink I didn’t want. The cats are adorable and it seems like a cool atmosphere but be warned about the untold donation to even touch a cat. Again, it’s not the price at all it’s not being told beforehand.

Such an amazing place! The staff is so nice and friendly AND so are the cats. All the cats are nice and very friendly with people. I took my best friend for her birthday, a d I booked a reservation for us, which they reccomend. We stayed a little over the time and the staff let us do our thing and hand out with the cats as we please. Great experience.

Super cute kitties and great staff! If you love cats, stop by!

Fun stop with my Wife...She loves the cats and I love Esspresso!! Purrfect

Great place to kick back and have a catnip lemonade and watch my favorite animals

If you love cats it is an unobvious visit

I am enchanted by the Cats cafe So Be . What a great idea. Very friendly staff .Coffe and sweats are delicious and the cats are beyond adorable.

Amazing staff and wonderful cats. Didnt try the food but the cats are extremely well behaved

Adorable and friendly kitties

Great work place with a fantastic view of the kitties!

This place is wonderful! Im truly amazed that so many cats get along so well in the same space. Walking into the cat area is truly like Purr-adise.

Im a cat lover and this place was a perfect way to mingle with some cats!

I came here a few times with my mom. I just love this place! I get car sick and I had to take an Uber to this place, the relaxing music, the sight of cats, and a delicious cookie with Nutella made me feel very way better than anything else could make me feel. Everything is at a reasonable price, and damn are the cats friendly! I came here today [as I am writing] and had an awesome experience, say hello to the cats for me please! ^-^

The owner and staff are fantastic! The cats are all very sweet and social. The Cat Cafe is the perfect break from the beach and incredibly relaxing.
