Meow Open: Atlanta's First Cat Cafe
Located in Grant Park, Java Cats Cafe is accepting reservations.
ATLANTA, GA -- The cat may have your tongue but hopefully not your appetite when you visit Atlanta’s first cat cafe, Java Cats Cafe, in Grant Park.
The eatery opened this week at 415 Memorial Drive in Suite C to curious onlookers, hungry patrons -- and cat people.
Owner Hadyn Hilton told local media that customers can expect to see upward of 15 kitties making themselves at home in the cafe. She is working the Paws Atlanta, a local no-kill animal shelter, to identity felines that would make great pets.
