The Black Cat Cafe
42 Berkley Rd, Media, PA
Crema's Take
“This volunteer-run cat rescue cafe in Media has mastered the art of doing good while doing coffee right, with all proceeds supporting their adoption program and resident felines. Beyond the undeniably charming theme, they're earning genuine love for their generous portions of homemade fare—think excellent quiche and cream of mushroom soup—paired with friendly, efficient service at prices that won't make you wince. It's the kind of place where you can settle in for a slow afternoon with a traditional coffee drink and actually feel like you're making a difference just by being there.”

The food was delicious, the staff was very friendly and efficient and the prices were reasonable. Best of all their proceeds ho to animal shelters. Their theme is all things cats and they have a few in cages that are available for adoption.
A great concept - a volunteer run 501c3 where all proceeds benefit a cat rescue/adoption program. Parking was extremely difficult as the three spots in front of the restaurant were full. We learned you can borrow a permit to park down the street. The food was good but a little pricey. There was confusion around dietary restrictions but we all worked through it to a successful resolution.
Gonna be honest, only really came for the cats and needed a bite to eat. Got the cream of mushroom soup and the quiche, both were excellent with generous portions. I actually had trouble finishing it all and I hadnt eatning a thing all day by 2 pm.
Cute little cafe to get a meal and look at some kitties. I got a breakfast burrito and asked for no bell peppers but after eating a burrito and picking out the bell peppers. The waitress offered a discount on my burrito for the mistake. It was a quiet and comfortable atmosphere.
Family brunch at a small cafe in Devon. I have to admit I was kind of freaked out when we arrived and they had a number of cats in crates near the front door. But I have come to learn that this is a non-profit operation where all the proceeds benefit the needs of homeless, abandoned, injured and sick cats and kittens. Wow! They were very accommodating to us when we had to keep changing our reservation. Kudos to them!!! The actual food was just okay. My home fries were burned. My French toast was mildly tasty. The creamed chipped beef had a very odd flavor (too eggy or too much uncooked flour). Nothing was extraordinary, but I applaud the cause.
