Cat Island Coffeehouse
300 E Scenic Dr, Ocean Springs, MS
Crema's Take
“This charming Ocean Springs spot brilliantly blends a cozy bookstore atmosphere with genuinely excellent coffee and pastries, creating the kind of place where you'll happily settle in for hours whether you're working, reading, or just soaking in the relaxed vibe. The knowledgeable staff clearly care about their craft, consistently pulling impressive espresso shots, and the upstairs seating with ocean views makes it feel like a special retreat rather than just another coffee run. It's the rare coffeehouse that manages to be both bustling and peaceful at once—busy enough to feel energized but unhurried enough to actually breathe.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.
