Silver Cat Cafe

Silver Cat Cafe is a cat cafe on Galamb utca in District V of Budapest, in the inner city near Váci utca and the Danube embankment. It opened in autumn 2026 and keeps purebred cats of several breeds; at opening there were three young cats a few months old, with a fourth expected. The cats have their own area, which guests enter only if they wish, so the cafe also works as an ordinary place for coffee. During the day the menu covers coffee, tea, cakes, brownies, sandwiches and pasta, and in the evening it turns towards wine, cocktails and gourmet platters. The cafe is open every day from morning until late evening, and until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

There is no entry fee; visitors order coffee, matcha latte, hot chocolate, lemonades, homemade cakes and light snacks, and coffee can come with cat-themed latte art. Because the cafe is small, table bookings are made in one-hour slots and a booked table is held for 15 minutes. The cafe also sells cat-themed gifts and promotes animal protection and the adoption of shelter cats. It is open every day.

Zvolen, Banska Bystrica Region74 mi / 119 km
Mačacia planéta is an adoption cat cafe on T. G. Masaryka Street in the centre of Zvolen, run by volunteers of the civic association of the same name.

There is no fixed price for entry or drinks; visitors pay a voluntary contribution for coffee, lemonades and other refreshments, and donations of wet cat food and litter are welcome. The association took over the premises from an earlier cat cafe in January 2023. Visitors come to meet friends, read or simply sit with the cats, and school groups are welcome.
