Polineko Madrid

Polineko Neko Café, located at Calle Mayor 19, Alcalá de Henares, Spain, is a heartwarming cat café and adoption center that offers a serene escape for cat lovers and advocates of animal welfare in the historic city of Alcalá de Henares, just a short train ride from Madrid. Open Tuesday to Thursday from 5 PM to 9 PM and Friday to Sunday from 11 AM to 2 PM and 5 PM to 9 PM, this cozy spot charges a donation fee of €6-€8 (including a drink) for visitors to enjoy organic coffee or tea while interacting with rescued cats from A.P.A Neko Madrid, all of whom are rehabilitated and seeking forever homes. Beyond its café offerings, Polineko provides a library of books and comics, board games, free Wi-Fi, and a shop with cat-themed merchandise, alongside hosting events like yoga with cats and language exchanges, fostering a community space that promotes responsible adoption and cat therapy. Nestled in a UNESCO World Heritage city known for its literary legacy, Polineko blends relaxation with a noble mission, making it a must-visit for those eager to sip, play, and perhaps adopt a feline friend.
