Came to scruffys for the first time, and will def be back! The owner/staff were all so so nice and enjoyable. The food was great. And all the cats were the sweetest. Nothing but paw-sitive things to say. My husband and I also got a shirt!
We had a great time! The staff was kind and very helpful. They have some really cute seasonal drinks available! The cats had lots of space and toys. It was a great experience and we will definitely be coming back :)
This experience was wonderful! I brought my senior living residents to come and visit with the cats and the staff was so welcoming! Everyone was friendly and polite and the cats were all very well behaved and sweet
The cutest cafe!! My husband and I dropped by while on vacation just to see some cats while we are away from ours. They are all so sweet and I wish I could adopt every single one of them. The staff is really nice too and the price was cheap compared to others. I wish we had been able to stay longer because I love this place so much!!!
I was looking to adopt a second cat, but I wanted to see how they interacted with others -- so a cat cafe was perfect! I ended up adopting two (oops!), but that was in part because my experience as Scruffy's was awesome. The kitties have lots of space and toys, plus plenty of couches for nap time. The beverages were a great addition to my visit. Even if you aren't looking to adopt, this is a great place for when you are having a rough day and really just need some wonderful, playful, and loving cats to spend time with.
