Many reviews describe Café Chato as a cozy, welcoming cat cafe where well cared-for cats roam and some are available for adoption; visitors praise the friendly staff, a relaxed atmosphere, and good coffee with vegetarian options. Some feedback notes weekends can be crowded and noisy, making it harder to interact with the cats, and a few comments mention cleanliness issues. The cats are the main draw, described as calm, sociable, and well loved, with several accounts of potential adoptions and a sense of care for their welfare. The cafe also garners praise for its contribution to cat welfare and the friendly ambiance that makes it a go-to spot for studying, socializing, or simply enjoying time with felines. Overall, Café Chato is portrayed as a popular destination for cat lovers that offers a welcoming vibe, decent drinks, and an emphasis on adoption.
Amazing cat café. The owner really takes good care of the cats along with the staff as well. They are also up for adoption. Good place to sit & relax & enjoy some healthy vegetarian food & a coffee/tea or a fresh beverage.
La nourriture est vraiment bonne & pas cher 🤫
L'ambiance est chaleureuse ainsi que le personnel.
Les chats sont la cerise sur le gâteau, même si des fois ils ne sont pas très nombreux, ils donnent une touche adorable à ce café mignon.
Un chouette concept, que je trouve particulièrement bien réussi avec cette collaboration avec le Refuge! Les boissons & les pâtisseries sont bonnes aussi, au goût bien équilibré. L'espace n'est pas trop surchargé & peut être à la fois énergique & calme, parfait pour un moment de détente.
Dissapointing experience, only one cat was out when we arrived, & she was sleeping. The other were all being consulted for adoption, which is great, but it is a cat cafe & the whole point is for people to visit for cats. Got a matcha latte, which was very weak & bitter. Overall a lackluster experience.
Got a matcha & it was tasteless so would not recommend.
However staff is nice, & they clearly care for the cats.
Cats are very friendly but wish there were more (they had 5) & it's a pretty big place
Unfortunately the Iced Chai was absolutely terrible. Definitely the worst I've ever had, neither I nor my friend could finish it. The cafe itself is fairly cute & the cats are adorable but I just wouldn't recommend it.

I adore this place, it's wonderful. The food & drinks are good & the cats are sweet & adorable. Staff is amazing. My only note is your clothes will smell of food & such after coming here sadly.
The place is really nice! There are 5 gorgeous cats that are super well cared for, the staff in general are very considerate of them & the clients. They are very attentive. The bathroom is also very clean, & the atmosphere is good to work & chat. The food is regular, nothing impressive. Although, there is a guy who work here, he's a little rude, he doesn't care to step by accident on the cats & not careful. But overall, the experience was very pleasant, my friend & I were here 3 hours.
Vraiment un super café accessible dans les deux sens ! (Des bons prix & une supe rampe d'accès à l'entrée ) Les chats sont très cutes & le concept d'adoption est vraiment cool!✨🐈?⬛

Read before you go here. Terrible experience, food was gross, cold, took 15 minutes for some pastries & coffees. Grande coffee served in tiny mug. Gross angry children jumping around scaring all the cats. Smells disgusting, children are hitting the cats & running in between customers to play with them. Save yourself the money & the time, surprised this place has a business licence.
