Ronrons et Latte
La Ferte Alais, Ile De France
Ronrons et Latte is a tea room and cat cafe in the centre of La Ferté-Alais in the southern Essonne, about five minutes on foot from the RER D station. Five or six cats roam freely through the cosy room, sleeping, playing and accepting cuddles. Most are residents, including a mini snow Bengal, and two at a time are available for adoption under an association contract with Nos Chats Sans Toit, a rescue group based in Corbeil-Essonnes. The menu mixes healthy and indulgent snacks, such as cookies, pancakes, muffins, tarts and matcha cake, with hot sandwiches like bagels and grilled cheese, milkshakes and specialty hot chocolates and lattes, much of it made to order. Cat books and board games are available, and a concept store sells gifts and work by local makers. Children are welcome under parental supervision, and tables can be reserved by text message.
