What a cute little space! So many beautiful cats up for adoption. You can tell they are well taken care of. The Soundbath was well done and so relaxing. Julia was amazing. It was cute to see the cats interacting with everyone, especially Julia when she was playing the bowls. I hope Mew Haven continues this fun experience!

The place was clean and had the right amount of cats so there wasn't a lot of fighting. On the wall, they have the name and information on each cat, including where they like to be pet. It was helpful to have that for when they approached us. I'm still missing Fred. I hope he gets adopted soon!

We had a great time here. My boyfriend is a cat person so he could really pet and play with all the friendly cats, and I haven't been exposed to them much but felt like I could really mingle with the cats as per my own comfort level. The staff was extremely friendly as well. Making the reservations was very convenient and the staff was particular about hygiene practices which we appreciated!

The cats were adorable, but it definitely was not what I expected, first you go in to give your name for the reservations and the women is in complete melt down mode I was a couple mins early so I was going to just look around which they dont have alot to buy anyways and she rushed me out and said I need to wait outside. Then my waiver wasnt showing up another melt down made the whole checking In process very uncomfortable for me and my daughter . There were so many people in the rooms trying to play with cats . A maybe 10 year old girl kept poking the cats with this long stick and getting them worked up and scared staff didnt say anything I had to leave before my time because it was just to crowded

We were early for Pistachio opening across the street, so we wandered over to the Mew Haven Cat Cafe and found ourselves unexpectedly enchanted. Though we didn't go inside, the large front windows offered a perfect view into the feline lounge, where a dozen or so cats lounged, leapt, and occasionally locked eyes with us like we were the entertainment. One tabby stretched dramatically across a sunlit perch, while a beautiful black cat gave us a slow blink that felt oddly personal.

The space looked cozy and well-kept, with toys scattered across the floor and cat trees arranged like a miniature jungle gym. Even from outside, you could sense the calm, welcoming vibe. The cats had clearly claimed the room not just as their playground, but as a sanctuary.

We didn't sip coffee or pet a single whisker, but the experience still lingered. There's something lovely about a place that invites connection even through a pane of glass. Next time, we'll book ahead. But for now, we're grateful for the glimpse.

I’ve adopted two cats from Mew Haven and HHR and they have always been lovely to work with, even while trying to coordinate pick ups. They answer all questions honestly and really helped me find the best fit. I’m so grateful for my two fur babies (Frosty and Honey) and can’t thank the staff enough for all they do for these cats!!

Such a lovely place to visit. They had 28 cats and all of them were extremely friendly and most even walked up for pets and attention. Plenty of toys to play with the cats as well. The staff was extremely friendly.

The gift shop was very very reasonably priced and had a lot to offer for being a smaller side part of the cage. The coffee was amazing and the cinnamon roll was to die for. I even picked up a tees short because it's a place I wouldn't mind showing I went to.

No one can stand poker face from cute cats. Also enjoy nice coffee.

My mental health needed this. I've always had cats growing up and not being able to have one where I live hurts sometimes with the craziness of life. I was overjoyed being able to love on these babies. I love that you can order drinks and have them brought over to you from the cafe as well. It was very tasty, passionfruit Boba tea.

A wonderful cat café! There were about 25 cats that all appeared well taken care of. Plenty of toys to play with and a great mix of different cat personalities. The staff were great - both knowledgeable and supportive. It's a great place to visit if you're looking to adopt or just spend some time with a bunch of cats. The little shop up front has some great snacks, drinks, and small items for sale. If you like cats, this is a great spot!

We had so much fun here! We booked a 50 min session and went at the end of the day so some of the kitties were just done being bothered for the day. We went around the time they were feeding though so we got to help feed them dinner and a lot of the cats were ready and waiting. They had all the info about each cat and they were all available for adoption which was great. The staff were very knowledgeable . I’m attaching some photos I took. I think this is a great way to get people in and to adopt. Or to just spend some time with friendly cats. I believe all kitties in my photos are available for adoption. We will be back for sure!!

Overpriced. For the food and the tickets. I understand it goes towards caring for the cats but the under enthusiastic staff, the creaky doors, the small food selection, the waiting for staff to be let in which cut into our time there. Underwhelmed.
