Le Salon des P'Tea Chats
Le Havre, Normandy
Le Salon des P'Tea Chats is a tea room in the centre of Le Havre, on Rue de Paris a short walk from the Hôtel de Ville, where around ten cats live and roam freely among the armchairs. Opened in July 2023 as the city's first cat cafe, it presents itself as the cats' home, with visitors as their guests. The menu has hot and cold drinks, including specialty hot chocolates, cookies and homemade cakes with some vegan options, plus light savoury food. Board games are available. There is no reservation and no time limit, so the room can fill up on busy afternoons, and arriving at noon or early in the afternoon gives the best chance of a seat. House rules for children and adults are posted in the salon and on the menu, and the cats are neutered, vaccinated and followed by a feline clinic.
