“I can’t express how happy I am with Mac Tabby Cat Cafe. I went a few days before Christmas to possibly adopt a new cat. The staff here is amazing, the cats are all adorable and it was overall a great experience. I adopted a beautiful white cat and I love her to pieces. I would not hesitate in the future to adopt from Mac Tabby again. Alternately if you just love cats and want to go hang out for an hour with the kitties, it’s a blast. The cats are very interactive. Thanks again.“

“I got the Peach and Prosciutto Toast and Peach Smoothie. Which was delicious and summer fresh. It was huge!!!! I love that everything except for the Barrata and bread are made in house. Even the sauces, herb infused cream cheese, and syrups. I loved their Balsamic Glaze. It paired well and created a exceptional bite. They also press their own juices, and roast their Ecuadorian coffee beans themselves. You won't find any harsh fried foods as the whole concept is fueling the body with good food. Since their concept is fast-casual gourmet toast and juice bar that stands out in the health-food sector for its unique menu niche that's heavily on vibrant, colorful food presentations that naturally drive organic alternatives. Creating an environment for those of us who are trying to eat better and more mindful without lacking flavor. I'd definitely give this place a try as everything can me amended to vegan or increasing protien. Its also nice knowing everything is fresh. The safe is exceptionally sweet and rather quick too with all things considered.“

The Philly cheesesteak was one of the best we’ve ever had, soft bun, packed with flavor, and a huge portion of meat. We also tried the nacho salad and it was amazing, super tasty and fresh. The famous pink lemonade was perfectly balanced and refreshing, and the Oreo shake just topped it all off. Customer service was a solid 11/10 — they checked on us more than once to make sure everything was good, and we really felt taken care of. Definitely coming back again!“
