Café des Félins sur Besancon

Everything was perfect! I came with my sister and we loved it! The cookies and drinks are excellent, the portions are very generous, I highly recommend it! The cats are in a truly healthy and healthy environment!

The cats are incredibly friendly, and you can really see that the manager adores them. We ate very generous salads, a real treat! The place is truly charming, and the peace and quiet are so wonderful; it's fantastic to find a place that respects animals so much. Thank you for this lovely experience.

We highly recommend a visit to this peaceful, calm, and welcoming place. The experience was incredible, and the matcha cookies are delicious! We were very surprised by how clean the place is, considering cats live there every day—not even a single hair on the floor! (But between us, even if there is some hair, it's perfectly normal; after all, they're cats 😸)

A fantastic spot in Besançon if you're a cat lover! The gentleman who runs this little cat café is incredibly kind. 🫶🏼 You can really see his love for his animals. The atmosphere is relaxing, gentle, and peaceful, with a wide selection of homemade treats and drinks—it's exceptional! Such adorable little faces! 😻 We'll be back! 🤍

A very relaxing place to come for a hot chocolate, play cards, read, etc. The atmosphere is very calm. The cats here are the center of attention; various toys are available for them, and they aren't afraid of people as long as their privacy is respected. The hot chocolates are delicious, and there's also a wide selection of cookies. If you're a cat lover, I highly recommend this place.

Must-visit for Bensançon! Location: Staff good with french and english too. Arrived with no notice or reservation. Despite having severe hay fevere, oral allergy syndrome, and a (mild) pet allergy, it was so clean that I had absolutely zero issues in here. Enter with discretion though. Extremely delightful atmosphere. Quiet, calm, warm, and welcoming. Exactly what the owner is going for. Perfect on a rainy day. Lots of warnings before you enter, explaining that the owner is the soul worker here. Signs also explain how to treat the cats. To a small extent this felt unwelcoming, however I completely understand and respect the reason for all the signage, so it doesnt affect my score. Due to the rules about being quiet inside, the atmosphere is perfect for escaping the busy streets and this cafe was less full than others around here, which was nice. This location is perfect for peoplewihth autism or ADHD who may be overwhelmed at times by the loud environment inside. Although obviously its important to be quiet and respectful yourself too. Owner cleaned the water from my raincoat immediately and directed me politely to the wifi passé and brought me a serviette when asked. He is very professional and did a good job at appearing attentive and fast, without being overbearing or making the café experience feel rushed. I was happy to sit. Food & drink Hot drinks are around 5-6 euros, cookies are 4 euros each. I think this is a reasobale price and would happily return here regularly if I was a local. 10 euros (each) for a relaxing sit-down. Alternative milks were offered! Panda hot chocolate was excellent. Very sweet, with a thick mouth feel but not gritty. Not sure if it is made with powder or not, but i worked as a barista on and off for around 7 years and either way, this is a nicely prepared hot chocolate. Latte served in café latte style and was quite good, served with a biscoff biscuit and sugar. No art on top but thats okay. Coffee connesseur I came here with liked it and called it decent (high praise). Rum and raisin cookie was fluffy, very moist and mildly sweet. Raising were well caramelised and tender. Siberian cookie was more baked, sloghtly subtly crunchy around the edge and soft in the centre, with cranberry filling. Slightly sweeter than the rum and raisin one. Burgers and other food are quite expensive, but the owner explained that running costs are very high here. Only a couple of small critiques, that I think could improve things here. Menu's are paper and a little old. Owner needs to buy cases for the menus or have them done in hard back. Binders might match the aesthetic nicely. Clock on wall is a nice touch but it isnt correct. Needs batteries. Different presentation on the latte could be nice as it was served in a café latte style. Also the owner is clearly under a lot of pressure but is handling it very very well. Leaving here feeling much less overwhelmed than outside, warmed up and dry. A lovely place to be. Very firm 5/5 would highly recommend as a must-visit for anyone in Bensançon Be responsible with the cats and use hand soap!!!

A very pleasant café! It's quiet, the owner is very friendly, and the drinks are delicious! The cats are adorable.

A very good experience. The atmosphere is calm and cozy. Each cat has its own personality.

A really lovely place. Very quiet. The owner is very dedicated and puts in a lot of effort. The cats are so cute.

I highly recommend this place; it's a quiet location.
