Pause Cat Cafe
Bournemouth, DorsetAbout Pause Cat Cafe
Calling all Cat Lovers in Bournemouth! Looking for your next big cat cafe adventure? Head on over to Pause Cat Cafe Bournemouth for the cat-tastic experience set to melt your heart!
Things To Do
This beautiful cafe, in the heart of Bournemouth, is on a mission to promote kindness through animal welfare, ethical eating, volunteering and community projects. It's full of charming cat-centric decor, cosy seats and - of course - cute cats. With 11 adorable cat residents, there is no shortage of cats to cuddle and play with as you indulge in delicious treats. It's the ultimate relaxed atmosphere!
Food and Drink
Fancy some hot drinks? Pause Cat Cafe is a not-for-profit cafe, offering a range of delicious drinks with insanely cute names and nice food.
Why not try their Meowicano, Es-purr-esso, Mog-cha or (our personal favourite) the Cat-White? If you're in the mood for a refreshing juice then you have to check out the Pina-cat-lada or the Meow-jito. We recommend going (even if it's just for the drinks).
They also offer a range of vegetarian and vegan artisan food! Did we mention that all of the food is locally sourced and ethically made? We'd recommend trying the soy vanilla ice cream - it's delicious!
Special Occasions
Heading to the Cat Cafe in Bournemouth for a special occasion? Make those celebrations even more special with a personalised cat cafe gift package. These surprise table gifts come in a range of different packages, and include a variety of super cute gifts like cards, polaroid photos, badges, tote bags, mugs and t-shirts. You can also opt for the behind-the-scenes tour too!
Make sure to pop in, pause for a while, enjoy playing with the most adorable kitties and indulge in delicious ethical food and drink.
