Super lecker, super niedliche Atmösphäre

Eine tolle Auswahl an Speisen & Getränken für jede Tagszeit, zutrauliche Kätzchen sorgen für Entertainment - zum Glück, denn die Wartezeit ist hoch.
Ich würde dennoch immer wieder kommen! Es hat uns hervorragend geschmeckt

Pros: Liebe Katzen rund herum, Einrichtung, Tolle Speisenauswahl

Cons: Längere Wartezeit

Voll süßes Cafe!

Voll das süße Cafe, sehr ruhig, schneller Service! Das ganze Menü ist vegan und bietet neben Kuchen & Kaffeespezialitäten und sehr leckeres “richtiges” Essen (Burger, Bowls, etc)

Das Konzept mit den Katzen ist natürlich Bombe und mir als Katzenliebhaberin hat der Besuch sehr viel Spaß bereitet! 🐱

Pros: fully vegan, cats, great service

Cons: small menu, limited dessert options, kinda pricey

Danke für Deine Bewertung! ☺️

Wir bemühen uns regelmäßig, unser Menü auszubauen und auf die Wünsche der Kunden einzugehen – schreibe uns gerne, was deiner Meinung nach noch fehlt. Wir freuen uns auf deinen Input. :)

Bezüglich den Preisen: Wir legen sehr viel Wert auf die Hochwertigkeit unserer Zutaten und ebenso auf nachhaltige Zutaten (wir benutzen beispielsweise Bio-Mehl aus Deutschland) - das kostet leider etwas mehr. ☺️

3,5 stars

As I can’t give 3,5 stars and this is an all vegan spot, I’m generous and give 4 stars.
My husband and I both(!) are allergic to cat hair, but we nevertheless wanted to check it out!
Worked fine, as we recognized most cats want to be by theirselves anyway and we mostly saw people coming over to them and trying to pet them, some got a little attack as answer 😅
The food is alright, not outstanding, but solid.
Therefore a little too expensive.
The place in my opinion is especially for people / kids who can’t have, but love cats and are willing to spend some extra Euros for that.

Pros: cute cats to look at (not necessarily to pet), extensive menu (all vegan)

Cons: expensive , food “only” ok

Nice visit

I wanted to visit and did not know you should make a reservation beforehand (better do!) but I immediately got a seat and felt welcome. I had a "happy piggy burger" with their home bread as buns, a hot citron and "Tiramiezu" as dessert. It was super tasty and pleasingly presented (the plates are fancied by paws of chili or chocolate powder). Although it is really pricey, I was very satisfied by the visit. The cats may not visit you at the table, but you are allowed to go to them and in the card are even the favourite petting points of each cat listed.

Pros: everything is vegan, nice atmosphere, friendly personnel

Cons: Expensive, Might be full, not enough cats 😅

Good breakfast

Their scrambled Tofu is pretty good, as are their coffee drinks. The staff is always nice and friendly and the interior is pretty cozy - not just because of the cats, whom to have around is pretty cool too, though.

Good place

They have a nice variety of food. I tried one sandwich made with vegan chicken but it was not tasty. I suggest another option.

Tolles Essen, freundliche Kellner & süße Katzen

Wir hatten eine ganz wundervolle Zeit im Katzentempel (in der Innenstadt). Es gibt eine große Auswahl an Speisen & alles was wir probiert haben war sehr lecker & die Portionen waren groß. Es wird sehr darauf geachtet, dass die Katzen ihre Distanz wahren können & der Laden war sehr sauber & man fühlt sich schnell wohl. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!

Simply fantastic

Delicious food -also breakfast- and very nice service. The eight cats that are living in the place are adding to the calm and enjoyable atmosphere.

The best vegan ice coffee

With the best vegan cream from coconut milk. It seems it is worth trying the sweets

Gut zu dir. Gut zum Tier.

Sehr leckeres Essen & entspanntes Personal. Die Katzen haben viele Gegenstände zur Beschäftigung und gute Möglichkeiten sich zurück zu ziehen.

Pros: Erbsen statt Avocados

Lecker und sehr gemütlich

Sobald man reinkommt, entspannt man direkt! Und das Essen war sehr lecker - auch schön, dass sie auch auf andere ökologische Kriterien achten (z.B. Erbsenaufstrich statt Avocado benutzen). Die Katzen sind aber nicht sehr verschmust, wo man sich drauf einstellen muss - was aber auch bei den vielen Gästen sehr verständlich ist.

Leckeres Essen mit süßen Kätzchen

Waren auf der Suche nach einem Veganen Lokal und fanden den Katzentempel. Wir hatten Burger, Salatbowl und veganen Nachtisch. Das Essen war super. Dazu die super süßen Katzen. Wir kommen gerne wieder. ❤️

entspanntes Frühstück

Alles hat gut geschmeckt (Croissant-Frühstück & Kakao) und das Ambiente war auch nett. Die Katzen sind sehr niedlich.
Die Preise sind jedoch eher nicht so günstig.

Tolles Katzenkaffee

Die Katzen sind sehr sehr niedlich. Tolles Ambiente, netter service und mein Eisbecher “Pedro” war sehr lecker. Die Toiletten waren sauber und das kleine Detail mit den Notfalltampons war 10/10, because you never know.
Ich werde auf jeden Fall wieder hingehen.
Man kann auch eine Patenschaft für eine Katze abschließen mit einem beliebigen Betrag. Es gibt auch süße Souvenirs wie z.B. Postkarten, Tassen, T-Shirts, etc.

Pros: Es gibt sieben Katzen, Alles vegan, Umfangreiches Angebot

Cons: Bissl teuer

Adorable cats and yummy food

Apart from having a hard time to get a table at this place (we had to wait three days before we could place a reservation!), visiting the Katzentempel was a wonderful experience. We ordered a salad and a Beyond Burger, both of which did not disappoint. Despite only spending aroun 30 minutes there we met almost all of the cats and it was a joy to interact with them. The staff was very friendly and happy to share cute stories about the cats. I'd love to go there again to try out more of their food and get to know the cats better.

Pros: Great food, cute cats, nice staff

Cons: It's difficult to go there without a reservation

Katzen :-)

Der Katzentempel lebt von den Begegnungen mit den haarigen Tieren. Das Katerfrühstück war ok, der Scrambled etwas sehr salzig, vielleicht hätte mir das mit einem tatsächlichen Kater besser geschmeckt. Der weisse Schokokuchen war superlecker.

Pros: Katzen, freundliches Personal, Alles vegan

Oh so lovely place!

Katzentempel is one of my favourite ones in Leipzig.
In the evenings it gets very full, so reservations might be required. But during daytime there is always some space to go and have a good lunch. The lunch offers are usually one soup with fresh bread and one main dish (a burger, rice dish, anything).

The menu is quite enough. Even tho right now on their website it is quite short, in reality it is longer. The menu is also available in English, of course, and the staff is very helpful. They offer also a variety of nice warm and cold coffee and tea drinks, plus one is always on the daily offer (when I last went, it was delicious pumpkin spice latte).

I would say the portions aren't too big, but they do fill the stomach. Also they feel light and creative, the sauces are very good.

The addition of cats is just adorable, there is quite many of them, their names are listed also on the back of the menu. They are very friendly with people, but it is also cool to see them climb below the ceiling. And they indeed are just everywhere, there's always one sleeping next to the counter where you can pay later. There are many signs that say not to grab them and they also have another room to go to when they get tired. Surprisingly, the place is very very clean, no cat hair to be seen anywhere.

Pros: Homemade food feel, Good coffee and tea, Lovely staff

super nice place!! amazing cakes!!

we were lucky to find a table here: the place is busy - and for a good reason! the cats are adoreable! but the service, drinks and - especially? - the cakes are fantastic, too!
we had some hot drinks on a cold winter evening and shared a "Donauwelle" - a cake my boyfriend usually doesn't like. but he approved - i was very happy with that coice! ;)
some cats were curious, others just wanted to relax and i love that this is respected here (kids were a little annoying and getting close to the cats, but, well - kids...)

would come here anytime again and probably try their hot food next time!

Pros: very nice service, delicious drinks & cakes, cats cats cats
