Meowmories Cafe

Meowmories Cafe is a small, homely cat cafe on Soi Thanin in Chang Phueak, just north of Chiang Mai's Old City and a short walk from Thanin Market. The room is compact and kept very clean, and its resident cats are plump, outgoing and used to visitors: most of them come straight over for attention, while one or two prefer to curl up and nap. The owner looks after the cats closely, and they are bathed and groomed regularly, so they are soft and smell fresh. Prices are kept low, with a discount for students, and the menu focuses on smoothies, fruit juices and other cold drinks. With its friendly owner and relaxed pace, it is an easy stop for anyone wanting an hour with sociable cats away from the busier tourist cafes in Nimman.

Chiang Mai1.0 mi / 1.6 km
Tipsy Cat Cafe & Bar is a small evening cocktail bar in the Santitham neighbourhood of Chiang Mai, run by a friendly Japanese owner who trained for six years in a bar in Japan. Nine resident cats live in the bar, and they wander among the guests, come over to say hello and settle in beside regulars. Cocktails start at around 80 baht from a long, well-priced list, and the kitchen serves fried bar snacks that go well with a cold beer. Huge 80-inch and 100-inch screens show sports and films, and the owner is happy to take requests.
