Le Chat Gourmand, Cats & Cookies | Bar à Chats Montpellier — Restaurant in Montpellier

Unfortunately this is not a good cat cafe. Once you enter, there is an intense smell, like the place has never been cleaned or there hasn't been fresh air in there in some time. The cats are overweight and one of them had scabies in its ears. The lady in charge did not smile once, or seem at all happy to be there. Coffees are not made in a different area. Really bad compared to other cat cafes everywhere. I have cats at home and I'm ok with hairs and everything and in there I felt really awkard and not sanitary in any way. Mostly, I didn't like sick overweight cats

My husband and I were visiting from the states for a couple days in Montpellier. We have been to a handful of cat cafes in other cities and another in Montpellier as well. This one takes the cake!

Came today for the birthday of my girlfriend, we stayed for more than 5 hours and had such a great time ! The lounge areas are very nice and comfortable, especially the couch upstairs ! The cats were very cute, friendly and cuddly ! Pepito was the highlight of our day, coming multiple times on our laps for dozens of minutes of cuddling and petting (channel really liked our coat too !!!) The food was very good and we spent overall around 45 euros while ordering many treats and drinks throughout the day ! The space was very lgbt friendly and we felt nice the entire time ! Thank you so much for everything and we'll be coming...
