12.04.2019 Salads

What could be better than sitting over a cup of tea and stroking a tender pet, listening to his purr?

It is this kind of pastime that offers cafes with cats in Moscow. What services are included in the price list of these institutions?

Seals and people

This cafe opened recently - in April 2015. And gradually it became so popular that it grew into a network of two institutions. Addresses:

  1. - Gilyarovskogo 17
  2. and New Basmannaya 3.

The institution is young. Initially, there lived 9 cats, which were always at the service of visitors. But today, the four-legged state has expanded: there are about 40 of them.

Customers can count on a pleasant stay and unobtrusive service. They are invited to lie in a hammock, read a book, drink coffee. Drinks and cookies are included in the price. The cafe at the very beginning deliberately refused to serve restaurant dishes, since it is very difficult to combine animals and food for people from the point of view of sanitary standards. All cats are vaccinated, neutered. The cafe works more like an exhibition where tea or coffee will be served for your entertainment. Recently, the institution has expanded the list of dishes, including the most delicious desserts. However, the food is limited to this: then begins communication with cats.

The institution is designed for 18 people. If there are more willing people at the same time, they will, of course, be accommodated, but other guests will have to make room. You can get here only by appointment, so every customer is on the account. In the cafe you can not be in the shoes, torture animals. The idea of \u200b\u200bthe institution - the client comes to the cats and should make friends with them, and not vice versa.

The interior design is quite simple, made in country style. It is this setting that helps guests to distract from pressing problems. Payment hourly: from 60 to 100 rubles per hour.

The organizer plans to have creative meetings, discussions of problems relating to cats.

The cafe offers board games, guided tours of cats, as in this exhibition. Children are also offered board games on the theme of animals. At the cafe you can spend a birthday, after discussing the program with the organizers.

Cats cafe allows you to take home. But before this, anyone willing to undergo serious casting. So do not hope that you just give the pet, not finding out everything about you.

Malt

Another Kotocafé is Malt. The address of the institution is Kosmonavtov Street, 12. However, the rules of behavior here are much simpler, and it resembles more than a restaurant in its structure, according to which cats walk freely.

Here you can order dishes of international cuisine, the preparation of which takes an average of half an hour. Dinner in a cafe costs from 500 to 1,5 thousand rubles, depending on what dishes were ordered.

The cafe has a veranda, air conditioning works, so everyone will be comfortable. For banquets there is a separate menu. You can order takeaway.

Kotofeynya

Another cafe with cats, which is located on the street Maroseyka, 10. The decor in the cafe is more like a children's playroom. There are also lockers with board games, and books, and consoles for the game. You can come here with your own work or entertainment.

And, of course, cats reign around. The device is in many ways reminiscent of the description of the previous ones: there are recreation areas, and places for cats, and even a separate room for them, where people cannot go.

The cost of such relaxation is from 4 to 8 rubles a minute. Optionally, you can purchase a subscription. Guests admit that the time here goes completely unnoticed. Feedback on the institution is positive, the rest is quiet, family, service is unobtrusive.

LaMur

Kotokafe, located in Moscow in Ogorodny passage, 25/20. There are strict rules of conduct that everyone must abide by. So, before entering, the client will be offered to treat his hands with an antiseptic and remove shoes.

Indoors should be quiet, do not torture cats, do not touch them if they sleep. Adults should look after children and show them how to communicate with animals correctly.

The cost of visiting a cafe is from 4 to 7 rubles a minute depending on the day of the week and the time of day. Students can get a 50% discount. Every 10th visit to the cafe is free.

Burgers are one of the most popular types of street food. Not only people, but also those who walk on four paws and wag their tails, will not give up the fresh burgers in a soft bun.

It is not even a separate restaurant, but a whole restaurant complex, which occupies four floors in a historic mansion.

On the ground floor there is a snack bar and butcher shop, on the second and third are restaurants, and on the fourth there is the Meat Club. Already drooling saliva? You have not seen the menu yet!

Hello!

I love cats very much, so when I found out that the kota-cafe was opening in Moscow, my happiness knew no bounds. I have already heard a lot about similar establishments in Europe, and I dreamed that we would discover something similar here as well. I've been here 5 times already, so I think it's time to tell you about this place.

i will not indicate the exact address, I advise you to recognize him on the official website, since the "seals" have moved several times + now this is not just a cafe, but a network.

Kotokafe works on the anti-cafe system, that is, here you pay for your time, and tea, coffee, cookies are all free. For an additional fee you can eat something more serious.

At the entrance to the cafe you will be asked to take off your street shoes and change into local “crocs”, and also ask you to disinfect your hands. If you are here for the first time, the staff will tell you about the rules of behavior, introduce you to cats and answer all your questions.

The interior here is beyond praise, there is absolutely cat themes everywhere. For visitors there are tables with chairs, puffs, but all the best, of course, for cats: all sorts of houses, baskets, loopholes, scraps.

What surprised me, cats do not smell here at all, everything is very clean. The cats themselves are very well-groomed, they are regularly visited by a veterinarian, so you can not be afraid.

I know that many people do not like such places, because animals often play the role of an attraction here, and they are very stressful because of the constant flow of people and squeezing. I can say that before this was not. The first time I got into the kotkafe was immediately after it opened. The staff conducted a briefing and made it clear that I didn’t come for my own entertainment, but to visit the cats, they shouldn’t be squeezed and picked up by hands until they themselves want it, you can’t disturb sleeping cats. The flow of people was regulated by the booking of places, and there was also a strict rule regarding visiting children: they were allowed only from the age of five and only during the daytime on weekdays. Now all this has changed a bit, but more on that later ...

By the way, this place is intended not only for skrashivaniya their leisure time, here you can also find a friend for life: you can shelter any cat. Sometimes even kittens are brought here, which, in my opinion, is important for those who for some reason are afraid to take an adult cat.

In addition to the fact that you can enjoy the cozy atmosphere and the presence of furry animals, visitors can entertain themselves with books, board games, and there is Wi-Fi. With the growing popularity of the katokafe, the program has become much more interesting: from time to time evenings are organized here devoted to a certain breed of cats. People come from kennels, bring their cats and tell a lot of interesting things about them. I timed one of my trips to the kotakafe to the presentation of a British breed of cats, I really liked it! Also, various master classes are held here, but I was not particularly interested in this topic, so I can’t say anything concrete.

Unfortunately, such a rosy atmosphere did not reign for long, and with the growing popularity of the institution of workers, they began to worry more about money, not their fluffy wards ... A year ago, my husband and I decided to go to kotokaf again (it was a weekend evening), booked a place and came to the appointed time. Already approaching the building, we saw through the windows that there were too many visitors, we could not even enter immediately, because the room for changing shoes was too small for so many people.

Finally, having entered, we really couldn't get any comfort from visiting the seals. There were so many people that there was nowhere to sit, and even stand, but I’m not talking about talking to cats. Almost all of them hid on the highest shelves or even went to their room, where they eat and go to the toilet (visitors are not allowed there). I also drew attention to the huge number of small children, although earlier, as I wrote above, they could attend this establishment only during the daytime of weekdays. They ran all over the cafe, shouted, and two of them even squeezed the cat into a corner and poked toys into its muzzle ... And none of the employees paid attention to this !!!

Of course, the impressions of the visit were spoiled, and my husband and I hurried away. Since there was no limit to my outrage, I left my feedback in the VKontakte group, is it worth saying that it was hurriedly deleted? But since I still wanted to get at least some comment about this situation, I sent my letter to them by e-mail. This time I already got an answer. I was told that restrictions on children no longer apply, and so many people are connected with the fact that I came at a fairly popular time. But why then on the site there is a reservation of places, if they start everything in an unlimited flow? By the way, before writing this post, I went to the kotakapa official website, and no longer found the booking column ... As for the children's behavior and lack of response from the staff, I was told that I was at the peak of the visit, and the staff were too uploaded. As compensation, I was offered a free visit to their establishment ... I didn’t answer anything to it ... It was unpleasant for me that initially a really good place turned into a contact zoo, and that instead of listening to the comments, I decided to close my mouth for free a visit But I love cats too much to fall for it ...

If you still really want to visit this place, I advise you to come in the morning on weekdays. But I’m not coming here again with my foot!

Thank you for your attention and see you soon!
