Everyone knows that Bozeman is Bobcat Country, a nod to the nearby Montana State University. And if you dine at the iconic Cateye Cafe, you can really take that cat love to the next level. This eccentric eatery is not only cat-themed but also serves some of the best brunches in town — and that’s a paw-mise.

You'll find the charming Cateye Cafe on North Tracy Avenue, just off Bozeman's Main Street.

Although the building isn't large, it's pretty much impossible to miss.
The owners, Tina and Kevin Caracciolo, bring a passion for cooking and customer service to the business, which they have owned for two decades.

They are cat owners themselves, although they leave their beloved felines at home.
Kitschy cat decor and touches of home greet you in the dining room -- and that's exactly how the team wants you to feel when you dine here: like you're at home.

And just like home, there are some pretty important and hilarious "rules" typed out for guests, such as "ask for water if you want it," "finish your coffee," and "don't camp" (meaning you should pay your bill and be on your way if hungry people are waiting to eat).
The Cateye Cafe serves breakfast and lunch daily, and both are absolutely delicious.
