    I’ve always been wary of cafes that use animals as an attraction like the ones in Thailand but this Cafe treats the cute kitties with respect. Their main goal is to find people to adopt the cats. They have strict rules about engaging the cats like no picking them up and no handling of the cats. You can play with the cats using the toys they have provided. It’s a great establishment that is looking out for the well-being of the abandoned cats. You can choose to book a 30 minute or an hour slot into the lounge.

    Had a fabulous time visiting with some most-precious kitties who are lucky enough to call Beans home, if only temporarily. Adoptable cats chilling in roomy and bright space with seating, toys and a 25¢ treat dispenser to persuade maximum interaction. Coffee and treats available as well as knick knacks including mugs, shirts, plushies, pins and bags. Very friendly staff and laid back vibe. Cant wait to go back!

    Visited New Paltz after some time and was so ecstatic to find that they had opened up a cat café — I wish they had it when I was a student at SUNY, I would definitely have been there all the time! I adored spending time with the cats. Staff seem to really care about them. Love the lavender latte! There was a cute mural in the café section, alongside some cute cat merchandise. I came back another day to participate in cat yoga which was such a fun, yet therapeutic experience (thank you to Victoria from Stellar Yoga!). Thanks for making my little day trips to New Paltz memorable, and thanks for caring for the cats! 🐾♡

    Lovely place for coffee, snack and some cuddles. The barista was very friendly and made a delicious chai. Wonderful way to spend an hour, highly recommend. Though be aware that they charge to spend time in the car room, $7.50 for 30 min & 12.50 for 60 min.

    Good coffee but we were there for the cats! They were so cute and very clearly cared for! All of them wanted pets or playtime. The staff had clear boundaries to keep them all safe and happy.

    It was such a nice place to stop by and spend time with some of the cutest cats ever!

  • Review 7 (2024-09-29 - Rating: 5)

    Coffee is delicious and cats are adorable and friendly! A must stop if in the New Paltz area.

    Great cafe with beautiful kitties. One thing that caught our attention though was that the cats didn’t have water when we were in, the cats also had eye boogers and looked like they could be a little better taken care of. We just want for all of those little kitties to find loving homes.

    A cute little cat cafe with lots of adorable cats! All the cats were wonderful but Lil Jon the orange cat is especially a heart throb. The cat sessions need to be reserved in advance (which you can do in person) and you can set up 30 minute or 60 minute sessions.

    We were visiting family from Michigan, walking around the little downtown area of New Paltz, when I just happened to look down a side street and see Cat Cafe. My daughter is a huge cat lover and I said, oh my gosh, they have a cat cafe, do you want to go look in the window? - we lasted all of 4 seconds before we were entering the front door, looking at spending some time with the sweet babies. My daughter and I each got a drink; we were told the ground rules (nothing surprising) and were advised to wash our hands upon entering. Immediately, I had the sweetest cats at my feet, rubbing my legs, looking for all the pets and love. My daughter had so much fun, and we both enjoyed our experience. if we didnt have a 10-hour drive and 2 cats at home, we would have applied to take one home. The kittens were so cute and playful. None of the cats were aggressive or ill tempered. My tiramisu cold brew was fantastic, and my daughter had a vanilla steamer. I found this place to be fairly priced and the cats seemed very well taken care of. The staff was friendly and told us all about the cats and where they came from and their stories. My ONLY issue with the cafe, as SOON as they opened the door to where all the cats were, the smell was awful. You can tell they really do try to mask or hide the smell and with that many cats, Id imagine its hard to do. But I couldnt even see litter boxes and the cat urine smell was fairly strong. All in all, if you love cats and want to enjoy 30 or so minutes of feline company and a tasty coffee, check out Beans! Took home a sweatshirt to remember my fun adventure with my girl.

    Clean well-kept space with lots of cats! There were 19 cats on the day we went. The cats are well-mannered; even the collared ones were not very aggressive. Good AC on a hot day too. And finally, the admission fee is a nice way to support a worthy cause.

    Went for the cats more than the food. Got a muffin, lots of chips! Kitty cats so cute!!! Some were resting, some playful. Nice cat cafe. Spacious. Would recommend and return.

  • Review 13 (2024-03-14 - Rating: 5)

    Super cute! Everyone was so nice there and the cats were adorable. Very reasonable prices for drinks and to sit with the cats. All of them were approachable and comfortable around people. You can buy treats for the cats (bring quarters!) and they had many toys and climbing areas for them. Will definitely be returning!

    I had such a great experience! The cats were very fun to play with, the food and coffee was great as well

  • Review 15 (2023-12-02 - Rating: 5)

    When I heard a cat cafe would be opening in New Paltz I was so excited, and this place doesnt disappoint! The cats have such great personalities, and spending a morning or afternoon with them is a great break from the grind. The food and drinks are tasty and the staff has been wonderful every time Ive gone. Theyve also got adorable merchandise up front if youre looking for gifts!

  • Review 16 (2024-07-16 - Rating: 5)

    Such sweet cats, this is a great cat cafe! Cant speak to the food as I didnt have any.

  • Review 17 (2023-10-13 - Rating: 5)

    Did not have the food, but played and hung out with the cats in the cat room for an hour. Really great staff and cute cats. Applied to adopt 2 of them and heard back the next day. Whether youre looking for a furry friend or just to visit and get a coffee, its a great place to go.

    Super cute spot. Been to both this one and the one in beacon. This one is more spacious which is nice. Love that you can get a cup of coffee for $2. Cats are cute. Great thing to do on a rainy day!

  • Review 20 (2023-08-03 - Rating: 5)

    Coffee was delicious, cats were adorable and a great set of rules is in place to ensure the comfort of the kitty residents. Highly recommend!

  • Review 21 (2023-08-03 - Rating: 5)

    Really solid oatmilk latte 👌 Kitties are so cute.If I didnt already have a couple of cats at home, I would have totally paid to enter the cat room (cafe area and cat room are divided by a glass wall)... And even then, I did consider it.

  • Review 22 (2023-12-08 - Rating: 5)

    Went there for their late night study hours and couldn’t be more happy with my experience. The staff is extremely friendly and the kitties are so sweet. Definitely the best study spot in town!

    Super cute cat cafe! Was able to get a hot chocolate and look at some of the adoptable cats. Such a sweet place! Thank you Cat Cafe!

  • Review 25 (2024-02-09 - Rating: 5)

    A fun place to get a snack and interact with some adorable kitties!

  • Review 26 (2024-07-04 - Rating: 5)

    We did not order anything during this visit. We were too excited about the cats.Everything was clean and the staff was friendly. They offered ground rules for engaging with the cats safely and gave a gentle reminder when we had 5 minutes left in our time slot. We made our reservations and paid online before arriving. It was an easy process.We lucked out and found street parking only a few spaces from the front door. We used the parking app to make it really easy to pay for parking.Overall a great experience. There are a few steps upon entry, limiting the accessibility for anyone with ambulation differences.We will definitely be back again.
