Gukeng Coffee is a Taiwanese-style coffee shop on Masangkay Street in Binondo, Manila's Chinatown, known locally as the district's cat cafe because of its group of resident cats. The cats, including Jinbao and Yuanbao, wander among the tables and can be petted and picked up when they are awake; they take rest breaks, so not every visit includes play time. There is no entrance fee: guests order from the menu, and shoe covers are provided at the door to keep the floor clean. Alongside coffee, Alishan tea, fruit-based drinks and matcha, the kitchen serves Taiwanese dishes such as beef noodles, dry noodles and dumplings. The room is small and fills up at weekends, so expect a short wait. The shop also feeds stray cats outside, and it is open every day from morning until late evening.

Antipolo, Rizal · 11 mi / 17 km

Feline Cafe is a small coffee shop with resident cats on M. Santos Street in Barangay San Jose, Antipolo, a short walk from the Antipolo Cathedral in the town centre.

The menu covers coffee, matcha and other drinks, waffles, cookies, sandwiches and pastries at modest prices, and the cafe also delivers within upper Antipolo. Customers may bring their own pets. The space is compact, so it can feel crowded at busy times. It is open every day from noon until midnight, which makes it one of the few late-night places in Antipolo to sit with cats.
