Purrista Cat Cafe

"This was my first time here but not my last! What a unique cafe and a perfect addition to downtown. I love the concept of coffee and kitties. The coffee was amazing and the croissant was delicious!"

"Had a pleasant visit at this cat cafe. There are plenty of street parking spots when I visited. The cat cafe is divided into a cafe where you order drinks/bakery and sit, and the cat lounge, which you can do a walk-in appointment or reserve a spot before hand on their website. (cat lounge opens at 11am) This space was beautiful in both area, with plenty of plant and cute spot to take a photo. The staff was very nice and polite. The drinks I got was matcha latte and the chocolate beignet, both were very delicious. They offer student discount for both food/drinks and cat lounge, with a present student ID The space was very clean, and I was impressed by how much work they put in to make sure the cats are well-taken care of as well as keeping the area sanitized and clean. You can adopt the cat directly from the cat cafe since they work closely with the local animal shelter. They offer variety of activities such as Yoga or Painting here. Event schedule can be found on their social media (Facebook, instagram) Had such a great time playing with the cats in the cat lounge and will definitely be back"

"What a great idea... coffee and cats! Cat lounge was large and there were several cats to adore and play with that are also available for adoption. Large sitting area is also available in the coffee shop to hang out. Great selection of coffee, drinks and other food items. This was a lot of fun."

"Super cute cat cafe. Unique experience if you are in the erie area. Make sure to reserve a time though because you may not be able to go to the cat area. Coffee decently priced."

"I absolutely LOVED Purrista! My best friend and I went when they first opened and absolutely loved the atmosphere and the kitties of course! I have been back several times myself just stopping in to get a coffee or a delicious bakery item. They also have the coolest merchandise that I love! The employees have always been super nice and welcoming. They have so many awesome events there too like yoga with cats and sound therapy with cats. I’m so glad we have something like this in Erie! Not to mention how many cats they’ve helped get adopted! They’re doing great things!"
