Cat Cafes in Lodz

Lodz

Herbaciarnia Kocie Oczy is a tea room with resident cats in a courtyard off ul. Piotrkowska 25, at the northern end of Łódź's main street near Plac Wolności. Open for about twelve years, it is the only place of its kind in the city and the permanent home of six female cats, who move freely between the guest room and resting places out of reach, so they can choose when to make contact. The interior resembles a grandmother's flat, full of trinkets, crocheted doilies, old furniture and cat motifs. The menu lists dozens of teas, served in house-shaped pots, plus coffee, hot chocolate, apple pie, cheesecake and cat-shaped cookies. Guests enter through a double door that staff open one at a time. The room is small, so there can be a short wait to get in. Weekend sessions for children are run with a cat behaviourist.
