Cat Cafes in West Sumatra

Padang, West Sumatra

Neko Cat Cafe is a cat cafe and co-working space on the second floor of CHECK POINT Compound Space, a youth hangout building on Jl. Nipah in Berok Nipah, West Padang, next door to Kakiku. Opened in 2026 and billed as the first dedicated cat cafe in Padang, it has around eight resident cats that roam the room and are friendly with guests, including children. The cafe serves coffee, other drinks and a range of meals and snacks, and guests can work or study at the tables with the cats around them. The room is small and seats fill quickly when it is busy. The rest of the compound adds a barbershop, a band studio, a music room on the third floor, PlayStation consoles and board games. Neko opens daily from 11 AM to 11 PM; check its Instagram for any entry charge or house rules before visiting.
