Iowa has some great coffee shops, but for any cat lover, there’s only one place in town. Getting into the increasingly popular cat cafe game, Coffee Cats combines the best of all worlds. Not only will you get an excellent cup of coffee and some sweet treats, but a separate room holds an adorable collection of adoptable cats that can be visited for a small fee. Coffee, cake, and cats – is there a better combo?
To those passing by, Coffee Cats looks like a charming coffee shop with an old-fashioned exterior - the perfect place to while away an afternoon.
Inside, the brightly lit cafe gives off a friendly atmosphere. It feels like the perfect place to linger over coffee and desert, complete with mementoes available for fans to take home.
Once you've had your fill, get ready to meet the cats! All these furry friends are adoptable, and access to the cat room for an hour can be had for a $10 fee that helps provide for the cats.
Of course, cats are going to cat, so keep an eye underfoot at all times! Cat lovers will be in heaven, as the whole menagerie is open to be gently petted and scratched.
