Cat Cafes in Eastbourne, East Sussex

Eastbourne, East Sussex

The Mad Catter Cat Cafe is a cat cafe on Station Parade in the centre of Eastbourne, East Sussex, a minute's walk from Eastbourne railway station. First opened in 2019 and run by its current family owners since 2022, it is home to 16 cats: eight original residents and the eight kittens two of them had in 2020. The cats are the cafe's own and are not up for adoption. They live indoors across two floors with hammocks and climbing furniture. Visits are sessions of 1 hour 15 minutes with a per-person entry fee that goes towards the cats' care, and no more than 20 guests are in the cafe at once. Bookings are taken by phone during opening hours. The minimum age is 6, including babies. The cafe serves cakes, pastries, crumpets and small savouries, with some vegan and gluten-free options, and can be hired for private sessions.
