Café Chat L'Heureux is widely appreciated as a cozy, tranquil space where visitors can enjoy vegetarian food and drinks in the company of well-cared-for, adorable rescue cats. Many patrons find the atmosphere relaxing and unique, often highlighting the friendly staff and the joy of feline therapy. While many guests have wonderful experiences, some reviews point to inconsistencies in service speed, occasional issues with cleanliness or odors, and limited menu variety. A recurring concern among visitors is the behavior of some customers, particularly unsupervised children, who can stress the cats by chasing them, leading to suggestions for clearer conduct rules. Although experiences with cat interaction can vary depending on the time of day and the cats' moods, the café remains a popular destination for those seeking a heartwarming, animal-friendly environment.
Amazing place if you like cats & yummy paninis. Drinks were good as well! The cats were friendly, sociable, although docile during parts of our visit which is fine (we'd all take a nap right now if we could as well). Would totally come here again!
I had such a delightful time at Happy Cat Café! The atmosphere was cozy, & the highlight was undoubtedly the adorable cats roaming around. I tried their latte, which came with the cutest paw print art on the foam-a lovely touch! The café was clean, the staff were friendly, & the cats were playful yet calm, making it a perfect spot for cat lovers. It was such a relaxing experience, & I can't wait to visit again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique & heartwarming café experience!
Chat L'heureux - Succursale rue Ontario Le concept de Chat L'heureux est tout simplement génial, surtout pour les amoureux de chats & les familles avec enfants. C'est un plaisir de partager un moment de détente en compagnie de ces adorables félins dans un cadre apaisant. Cependant, il y a quelques points à améliorer. La température dans le café est assez froide, ce qui rend l'expérience un peu inconfortable, surtout en hiver. Comme il faut retirer ses bottes, des chaussons en plastique seraient une bonne idée pour plus de confort & d'hygiène. Côté nourriture, le café est bon & les prix sont raisonnables. Par contre, le pain perdu caramel-chocolat que nous avons pris était extrêmement gras, presque imbibé d'huile. Cela pourrait être ajusté pour rendre l'offre encore plus appétissante. Malgré ces petits bémols, je recommande ce café pour son ambiance unique & sa belle mission. Une visite à refaire, en espérant que ces détails seront pris en compte !
Amazing experience. People are writing bad reviews & ignoring the fact that unlike other cafes they are not charging entry fee to see cats & be with them.I am from Toronto & came here to visit the cute cafe as i love cats & i had an amazing experience. If you are visiting such cafe's don't expect you are going to get Tim Horton experience. Those are places that serve you pre made drinks & just warm up stuff. This is a local & busy cafe so service is expected to be slow.Obviously there is wait time & servers are trying their absolutely best. I went there & we had to wait 5-10 minutes to be seated as it was full & that's fine we understand. We got seated on sofa & there was a cute cat ( Laila) sleeping over there we petted her & she was just sleeping that was just so adorable.We also ordered latte & high five which was really good. Would definitely come back to this place when i visit Montreal next time. The service is slow so i would recommend people to be patient as the cafe was full & obviously the people who order first are supposed to be served first. I really had good time here & i saw four cats .
I was recently in this place & I didn't like it at all! The first thing I didn't like was that they make you take off your shoes before entering the hall, I partly understand this, but there are no conditions for this, a pile of shoes stands in front of the door, the floor is all wet, there is nowhere to take off your shoes normally, everyone throws shoes on top of each other, I saw a pair of slippers in the entire huge hall. It is cold in the hall, especially when it is -15 outside & you are sitting in the hall without shoes! The place is dirty & dusty, I noticed the glasses at the next table, it feels like they have never been washed! As for the food, we waited for our order for about 1 hour, & these were not some super complicated dishes! We ordered soup & a sandwich, honestly I don't understand why they took so long to prepare this soup, the soup from a can diluted with water & sprinkled with a little cheese on top, it tastes like this kind of soup! The sandwich is nothing special, it is sold with a salad of greens in which I got rotten ones leaves. There is nothing special about this establishment, I only saw two cute cats. Unfortunately, I do not recommend it!
I went there recently & had such a wonderful experience! I ordered a grilled cheese sandwich along with a lemonade! The grilled cheese was so cheesy & the salad going with it was fruity & chewy! Lemonade cup was so cute & staff gave me a to-go cup. About the staff, they were so nice & caring! The cats were so cute & friendly! The merch & overall cleanliness was amazing, if I could give 6 stars, I would!
