Gatos and Beans

"I’ve been a few times now, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed each visit. The shop itself is very colorful and cute. The cats are wonderful and their room is clean and neat. I haven’t had the *best* coffee there but it is still worth getting the drink that comes included with the reservation. Wonderful experience, especially for those who love cats."

"What a great place!!! My daughter and I stopped by for an impromptu coffee. The coffee was definitely great but the cats made our trip! There is a small charge to enter the kitty room but it was so worth it. All cats are up for adoption and they were so friendly. We are going to start making our Gatos and Beans scheduled trips so that we can visit our new friends!"

"While on our way out to visit family out in Alabama, we decided to treat our oldest to something she has always wanted to experience: a Cat Cafe! It was a light day for the café- they explained that they normally have about twelve cats running about but today there were only seven with one in time out for misbehaving. Still, there were plenty to watch and play with, and they even offered free toys to play with for the cats' entertainment. The drinks we bought were well made, too! The only thing I could find fault with was that when we arrived, we were told we would get one hour with entry ($13 per person) but our arrival time was never noted or written down, and my wife noticed that we were told our time was almost up even though we had been there less than forty-five minutes. We believe that we were confused for another couple that had come in before us- there were four other groups in there with us- and it was just a simple misunderstanding, but I would recommend making sure to note the time somewhere just in case this happens to you if you visit."

"Gatos and Beans is an awesome facility in Avondale that partners with a rescue to house and adopt out cats. The cats were all really sweet, calm and friendly. The coffee was nice and I just really enjoy the concept. The employees and patrons were all very friendly. When you adopt a cat they are spayed/neutered and microchipped for a really affordable fee. I love the cat play areas and all the toys provided. The cats are well cared for in a serene setting. I recommend making a reservation which is very simple online."

"Everyone here was super kind and friendly! The entire space is very clean and well-taken care of, including the cat room. The kitties are spoiled rotten and so sweet! The coffee was great too! Such a fun experience, I would definitely recommend and will definitely be back!"
