The family shares the space with its group of house cats, which wander between the tables, and visitors say the owners like to introduce guests to each of the cats in turn; one reviewer joked that the furry staff are very accommodating despite their grumpy faces. Guests order from the drinks menu, which reviewers rate as tasty and good value. The cafe also lists itself as a bakery, and its Instagram handle refers to the panna cotta it makes. It is an afternoon and evening spot, open from 4 pm to 10:30 pm every day except Monday, with a quiet, homely feel rather than that of a polished cat lounge.
