    A very cozy place for the people who like cats. The cats obviously are extremely adorable and the ambiance of the place is cozy and warm. There are board games options to play too. While the hostess/service was really nice and friendly, The coffee and food could have been a little better. we paid around 200 kr just as an entry fee, which I felt as little on the higher end, I enjoyed watching the cats play and stroll around, Good visit.

    One word, Amazing......... There are a few rules - don't pick them up and don't wake them up, but you can pet them while they're sleeping. You need to wash your hands and take off your shoes before entry, so take shoes easy to slip off. Need to book your place before visit. Great experience, highly recommended to any cat lover.

    Out of all the cat cafes we have visited this was the most stylish. The entry fee was quite high but it was totally worth it. The drinks were very good and not as pricey. The focal point is clearly the cats here as they are rescues being put out for adoption, this makes it so they are very different in character (some young and playful, others more shy). None of them are desensitized as permanent cat café residents usually are. Definitely worth a visit!

    An amazing experience. We had the large (1h25min) packet with lunch and dessert. The cats were wonderful and well looked after. Some playful and some sleepy. They also had the ability to withdraw if they wanted to. It’s astounding that these cats are placement cats. They were so well behaved. The guests at the cat cafe were also not too many (a limit maybe?) and also quite well behaved. Even the food was good! I will miss Paris and Svante!

    Went there with my boyfriend, we are huge cat lovers so this was very fun for us. Cozy atmosphere and the kitties are well taken care of. Will go again whenever I'm back in Stockholm

    What's not to love? Sitting at a calm cafe with a cat walking around and sleeping. The serene atmosphere and cats were a good combination. The food is fine, we got a small combo for 89sek which include coffe or tea, sandwich with sallad, cheese, cream cheese and jam plus smoothie. Quite a good price. The bakery is between 30-50 sek. Drinks are no more than 50sek. If you don't want pay to play with cat, it's also possible. The fee is quite much, 189sek or 199sek on the weekend per person each hour, not included the food. I still want to comeback,

    Stockholm’s first (and only?) cat cafe! Small but good selection fika and lunch dishes. Personnel dedicated to the care of the cats. Cats galore, some still shy after being rescued, others very sociable. 10yrs age limit, book a table beforehand or take your chance on available drop-in places. No problem a Monday at noon.

    Maximum chill alert ⚠️ I mean just sit there, relax and play with all those cats. Tell you what, if you ever felt down and depressed, just go there ALONE and order a cup of tea and cuddle them a bit, I'll promise you'll feel better soon.

    Original Scandi cat cafe. I’m a big fan of the London branch, so I had to visit during my stay in Stockholm. The same concept, the same interior design, but this one looked more spacious. It seemed like the kittens are very well taken care of. I’m very happy for them.

    Absolutely amazing experience at Java whiskers. The cats are very well taken care of, the staff are very accommodating and care for the cats. Atmosphere specifically is great, very cozy and nice. Student and senior discounts are really nice inclusions too.

    Nettes Katzen-Café mit kleinem Bistro. Für den Besuch bezahlt man pro Person am Wochenende 199SEK für 55min. ohne Getränke/Essen. Es erfolgt eine Einweisung zu den Tieren. Nett gemacht...

    We visited Java Whiskers on a Tuesday evening in December 2022. Love this place. Healing for the soul to spend time with these wonderful animals. Fantastically engaged staff who took the time to tell us about the cats and their backgrounds. Had a big smile on my face after the visit. Will definitely come back.

    A very nice and calm cafe with a feline twist. Super friendly staff and a very cozy atmosphere. The cats are friendly except for one which might scratch you. You get a warning about that particular cat. The prices are also good for the coffee, the entrance is a bit expensive at 199 SEK for one hour. But cat food and vaccines are not cheap. Definitely an experience, try it.

    Such a lovely experience. Me and my partner couldn't stop gushing about if when we left. We booked a timeslot online and preordered some lunch. Food was lovely, the kanelbulla was especially yummy, but obviously the highlight was the cats. We got to pet and play with cats for 1,5 hours, what could be better? The staff was very lovely, informed us about the rules and told us about the different cats. Lovely atmosphere in the café/catroom too, everyone visiting was respectful and calm around the cats. The cats seemed very happy about life, getting to play and cuddle and retreat of their own desire. Want to go back immedielty ❤️

    If you love cats and coffee, book an hour here! The cats are well taken care of and all looking for their forever home! And of you're qorried it'll smell like "cats", don't. It's very clean and such a cozy atmosphere 😌 ✨️

    A cozy cat cafe managed full of love and care. The cats were all stray and are up for adoption. They are also treated with much respect and are given breaks and boundaries from us humans. The people that work here are real-life angles

    Didn't have the food just coffee and it was ok, but the atmosphere and the service is very good. The staff are friendly and you get to play with the cats as long as you like, if the Cafe isn't completely booked. So if you like cats and nice atmosphere a definite place to visit as they helps homeless cats find families as well. But do reserve before visiting just easier that way and they can be booked completely:)

    Such a cool place to visit. There are 9 cats that some are so playful. We got the birthday package which was not available on the website though. Food is good and enjoyed the hot chocolate with kannbulle.

    Great cat Cafe in Stockholm!! Staff is super lovely and welcoming !! It's a bit pricy (roughly 20£ entrance+tea) but it's for a good cause helping the cats to get adopted :) Very cosy interior !! Definitely advice to come in the mornings as the kitties are quite active :)

    Toll gemacht. Die Katzen sind separat und haben Fluchtmöglichkeit. Essen und Getränke im Vorraum. Hände waschen und Überzieher für die Schuhe sind Pflicht. Kostet Eintritt.

  • 5/5 Vladislava D. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful! Staff members seem to really like what they do and they need a credit of respect for it! It is very cheap and convenient area. Only thing is maybe the place gets too crowded and it makes the cats more scared. Perhaps having a maximum of 10 people at the same time can be better for the cats who especially feel shy around people. Great experience, definitely a great concept especially for a big city like Stockholm.

    Cozy and quiet place with great coffee and really friendly staff. And, of course, cats! We were lucky to meet all nine of them, both playful kittens and chill sleepy boys. Overall, amazing experience and a serotonin booster, we will definitely be back!

    Really nice café! At a fair price, you can stay at least an hour in the zone of the café with the cats. Obviously, there are some rules, but you can still play with the cats with their toys or pet them. A very fun and calm experience while you eat or drink something and talk with the other visitors. Lovely! 😍
