Black House Cafe
Black House Cafe, which bills itself as the first cat cafe on Lombok, is a casual eatery on Jalan Jombang in Pagesangan Timur, in the south of Mataram. It was opened in 2020 by a couple from the Lombok Cat Lovers community, who keep around 30 purebred cats in an air-conditioned cat room where guests can eat and drink with the cats around them; visitors who prefer not to sit with cats can use the outdoor seating, which has no air conditioning. There is no entry fee: guests order from a menu of bakso, seblak, fried rice and other Indonesian comfort food, coffee and cold drinks at local prices. House rules ban laser pointers, rough play, squeezing or throwing the cats and feeding them leftovers. A small cat hotel also operates on site. The cafe opens from 10 AM to 10 PM and is closed on Fridays.
