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.
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.
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.
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!✨🐈?⬛
2026/03/04: Drinks were good. Not that many cats - as per the wall, there were 4 on site. Only 2 were'friendly' & seeking to be pet. Two others were recently adopted out so perhaps it's more occupied with cats at other times? The floor needs to be swept more often, it was only an hour after opening & there were little bits of litter box bits all over.
It was an experience, but not as fun as all the Japanese cat cafe videos I've watched on YouTube made it look like lol.
I accidentally came across this cat cafe, it's so lovely 😍 I enjoyed surrounded by the cats, good atmosphere there ❤? If you are cats lover, should pay a visit 😊
The place itself is nice, but we were at bit disappointed, we didn't really get to enjoy the experience. Most of the cats were either sleeping or being scared away by the kids. It's understandable, but after a while it became a bit annoying. At that point, it just felt like a regular café. The food was fairly average, & for the price, we expected better.

Un vrai petit havre de paix à Verdun. Ambiance calme, cosy & relaxante, parfait pour décrocher. La nourriture & les boissons sont vraiment délicieuses. & les chats sont absolument adorables 🐾 On voit qu'ils sont aimés & très bien traités, le concept est magnifique. Le personnel est super chaleureux & accueillant, on se sent bien dès qu'on entre. Honnêtement, c'est devenu mon café préféré. J'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner & peut être d'y adopter un compagnon 🐱
Les chats sont adorables, le staff est gentil, l'endroit est bien. Par contre, ne venez pas ici si vous pensez que c'est un café & que vous voulez travailler/étudier. Plusieurs enfants crient & courent comme si c'était un terrain de jeu plutôt qu'on endroit calme.
