Espurresso Cat Cafe

Espurresso Cat Café is a cozy feline haven located at 1014 Massachusetts Street in Lawrence, Kansas, within Douglas County, proudly holding the title of Lawrence’s first and only cat café since its opening in July 2023. Founded by Brittanie Sinisgalli and Mary Costello, this charming spot invites guests to enjoy handcrafted espresso drinks, pour-over coffee, tea, and house-made pastries like scones, all while mingling with adoptable rescue cats from the Lawrence Humane Society in a thoughtfully designed “Purrlor” lounge. With a $10 fee for 30 minutes or $15 for an hour in the cat space—supporting feline care—this café offers a relaxing retreat where visitors can sip quality beverages, unwind with playful kitties like Charmander and Hobbs, and potentially adopt a furry friend, having facilitated over a dozen adoptions to date. Open Wednesday to Sunday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Espurresso Cat Café blends a passion for great coffee with a mission to find cats forever homes, making it a purr-fect community gem in downtown Lawrence.
