    This new cat cafe opened in LES and is already taking $15 reservations for hour-long "catnaps." The space has a few tables and a bar and what the site calls "a first-of-its-kind outdoor Cat Garden.

    Relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff. The cats also seem to enjoy themselves. They also offer a free refill when you order a pot of tea and have a nice outdoor area.

    the cafe section is actually really nice & great for working. the cat section is kind of weird...not sure if it's worth $15/hr but the kitties are mad cute (and up for adoption)!!

    Good coffee & what a great idea: pay $15, pet some cats & if you bond with one adopt it! They were all saved from euthanasia. Cat space is separated so the café is suitable for allergic people too :)

    Lose yourself with the playful cats at Koneko. Grab a boba guys tea across the street while you wait. They're super nice with outside drinks :)

    Cat Cafe recently opened in LES. Great space to work and a huge cat area out the back. Cake, coffee, matcha all on the menu here.

    This cat cafe is gorgeous! It's $15 for an hour with the kitties. And they're all up for adoption!

    The place and the cats are so cute! I would ask ahead if there busy or not though; if there's too many people you'll have to wait for some to leave.

    I was being a basic b and had an iced Chai Latte. The real reason you come here are cats though, so who really cares about the coffee?
