PAWS CAFE

Paws Cafe opened in January 2019 as Shropshire’s first Cat Cafe. The concept is very different to your normal cafe or coffee shop. We have 11 resident cats inside, here you pay for your time and not your drinks. During your stay non alcoholic drinks are included (subject to time stayed). It’s certainly a unique experience and with over 200,000 visitors since we opened, it’s hugely popular.

The first cat cafe opened in Taiwan called Cat Flower Garden in 1998. In 2005 Japan opened it’s first cat cafe in Tokyo and since then there are almost 150 cat cafe’s in Japan, with 58 of these in Tokyo! Cat cafe’s quickly spread across the world as this amazing idea took off with international cat lovers.

Paws Cafe – Owners Katie and James started working on the cafe in July 2018 after finishing their previous careers. Katie, a Teacher and James a Production Engineer. Katie took James to another cat cafe in the UK and he loved the chilled out and calm environment, being a mad cat fan he wanted to start his own cat cafe!

					  Visited today with my (adult) daughter and we were both very impressed with the setup. The staff were lovely, they clearly adore the cats and there was always someone around... read more if you needed anything or to tell you about the cats. The cafe was very clean and well kept. The spacing for Covid distancing was very well managed. The cats were all gorgeous and obviously well looked after. Cakes were very nice and entry includes free soft drinks. Altogether well thought out. Thank you for a lovely visit.
