Cat Cafes Nearby
ABOUT H Coffee
Taipei City0.4 mi / 0.6 km
ABOUT H Coffee is a hidden cafe in a lane off Zhongxiao East Road Section 2 in Zhongzheng District, Taipei, near Huashan 1914 Creative Park. Behind the low-key entrance is a cosy room shared with around six resident cats, who lounge by the windows, claim empty seats and are happy to be stroked, though not picked up. Staff explain each cat's likes and dislikes. The cafe is best known for its layered crepe cakes and pistachio Basque cheesecake, served with coffee, tea and lattes. Ordering one item per person gets you about 90 minutes at the table. It is very popular, so phoning ahead to book is strongly advised, and parents bringing children should read the entry guidelines on the cafe's Instagram first. Payment is cash only.

It is a sister shop of ABOUT H Coffee, and its two shop cats, including a sleepy favourite named Mantou, roam the room and are happy to be stroked; staff readily invite guests to say hello.

肉球森林
Taipei City0.5 mi / 0.8 km
肉球森林 (Paws Forest) is an animal cafe on a lane off Xinsheng South Road Section 1 in Zhongzheng District, Taipei, near Dongmen MRT station. Alongside its resident cats, it is known for meerkats and toucans, and the cafe is laid out so the animals have their own areas while guests can interact with them up close. Staff give a clear introduction to the layout and house rules when you arrive and point out which cats are most sociable. Feeding the toucans is offered as a paid add-on, and the meerkat area lets you watch, pet and photograph them. The kitchen serves full meals such as pasta, risotto, rice balls, fried chicken, clam chowder and puddings. It is a popular spot, so booking online in advance is strongly recommended rather than relying on the walk-in queue.

Taipei City0.6 mi / 0.9 km
The Who Cafe is a cat-themed café and restaurant on the second floor at No. 2-1, Lishui Street, in Taipei's Da'an District, a short walk from busy Yongkang Street. Two resident cats, Loki and Thor (洛基 and 索爾), greet guests at the door and wander between tables, calm rather than pushy, and often nap on the seats. The cooking is home-style, with beef noodles, spicy chicken rice, pork and cheese baked rice and set meals, and lattes come with three-dimensional cat-face milk foam. Plates and decorations follow the cat theme, power outlets are available at the seats, and food orders come with a free nougat cookie.
