The Cat Cafe

For tea and cats

Shoreditch high street is home to the weird and the wonderful. But, if you pay attention you’ll find the Lady Dinah’s Cat Emporium. That’s right you can now sit back and relax with a cup of tea and a slice of cake, while a furry, feline friend scurries around your feet.

The Cat Emporium is an elegant paradise, hidden away next to fast food restaurants and mobile phone shops. The two-storey vintage café has an array of moggies to play with and plenty of toys to get their attention.

The waiters and waitresses continue the theme by wearing cat ears and painted on whiskers. There’s even a menu of treats for you to enjoy. But be careful what you order, you never know if that furry friend at your feet will be feeling a bit peckish.

The cat café craze is growing; many major cities in the world have them. The whole idea is that people are naturally more relaxed with cats around them and it’s true. There’s something about these frisky felines that you can’t help falling in love with and after a stressful day, stroking their soft fur will help all your troubles disappear.
