I have absolutely nothing but positive things to say about Brews and Mews. The coffee is amazing, service is excellent, they have lots of different flavors of Boba and the cat room is just perfect. Well worth the trip! You can tell from the front door how much they care. The cats are healthy, happy and very much loved! Please check them out if you're looking to adopt.

wanted to say today was such a wonderful experience! my partner and i had a great time during our 3PM appointment, and during our appointment they introduced a new cat to the room. as someone who has worked in cat cafes in the past, they are doing top tier work to take care of these cats. the cats are very sweet, very social, and i can tell the staff goes to great efforts to make all of this happen. every drink i’ve gotten from here has been amazing as well, and i see why people stop in just for the drinks all the time! definitely support this business, whether it’s booking an appointment or just getting a sweet drink!

Cats aside, I am a chai snob and my hot chai tea latte was truly exquisite. It was piping hot, very rich and flavorful. Really 10/10. My husband said the drip coffee was great. Kids loved their lemonades. I would absolutely pop in just to order a drink regardless of cats. Cats were like paid actors! Variety of personalities with several hilarious and playful kittens, several older gentlemen who purred on my lap for chin scratches, a few who looked down from above. My kids are 4 and 8 and they were happy and entertained the full time. I recommend making a reservation and arriving 10 minutes early to order and then be able to use your full time in the car room. I gave atmosphere 4/5 stars because I was really hoping for a sleek, upscale look but it is definitely more thrift store couch vibe. But, most importantly, it was absolutely not smelly or gross- I was shocked that there were zero bad smells even in the enclosed cat room. No litter smells whatsoever, and I was expecting that mix of cleaning supplies with wet animal smell that you’d notice at a humane society. I have no idea how they achieve that. Well done! Edit to add: I just tasted the lemonade! I did not realize they were homemade! They are amazing- so refreshing, not too sweet. Night and day compared to store-bought.

Great coffee and boba drinks and fun to watch and play with the cats. Definitely stop for drinks even if you don't like cats. You can just watch them if you don't want to play. The holiday decorations are lovely and the staff are great fun.

The Purr-fect way to unwind, relax, & release any stress from the week. For 12, you get to spend an hour with the kitties. They have both older cats & new kittens, all available for adoption!!! The Cafe ensures that all the cats get fixed, as well as getting all their initial shots & vaccinations. They also have an assortment of drinks, pastries, & snacks so you can just hang out, chill, & watch the kittens while you enjoy your refreshments. Each visit is almost always different!!!

My wife and I love going here. They have amazing coffee and other drink options. Really good boba. The vibes in this place are spectacular. I think of myself as a relatively introverted person and nearly always end up in a conversation with a stranger here. It's that kind of place where everyone is welcome and they have the coolest people on staff. OH YEAH! The cats are awesome too! The cats are one of the best parts. You can watch them play from behind glass, you can play with them, you can completely ignore them and it'll still be one of the best coffee shop experiences you've ever had.

Visited Brews and Mews for the first time with a friend recently and it won’t be our last! We ordered coffees from the sweetest barista then drank it at the bar overlooking the cat room. It was so special to watch the kittens play with each other and the cats lounge around. There were so many unique signs and touches around the cafe that made us laugh. Wish we’d found Brews and Mews sooner! Looking forward to bringing more friends/family back in the future!
