Great food and place

We tried the vegan pad thai and the tofu satay bowl. Both super delicious! The coffees are also great. My bf had the espresso chocolate brownie. Unfortunately it's not vegan, but he said it tastes incredible.

Huge servings

I got the tofu bowl and it was huge. And super good. There was a little bit of a weird scent in the restaurant, however.

Hi, thank you so much for your review!
We are so sorry about a weird scent though!? We keep the place super clean and this would be immediately addressed had we noticed! We do sometimes have problems with people stepping in things on the street and walking it inside our place though, maybe it was that? Super embarrassing, we will do our very best to stay aware of any unwanted scents in our place.

Great sandwiches!

We loved the tofu scrambled eggs and the peanut tofu sandwich. Nice spot to hang around. They also make nice fruit juices, like the watermelon mint juice and dragon fruit mango juice.

Utterly obsessed , all of our Laos food highlights are from here

We cannot say enough about this little cafe. It’s vegetarian but extremely vegan friendly. We ate here twice a day, almost every day for the 6 nights we spent in Luang Prabang.

We tried almost all of the baguettes, our highlight definitely being the scrambled tofu baguette (with extra vegan garlic mayo). We also had the nutty noodle salad and the super power satay tofu bowl which were both delicious, especially the super power satay bowl!! And the banana pancakes with peanut butter and chocolate are absolutely amazing. The coffee is also great here. The owner, the staff, the atmosphere, the food and the lovely cats and dog sparkles that sometimes make an appearance meant that this place was a huge highlight during our time in Laos.

Yummy vegan pancakes! or crepes?

I like this cat cafe concept. The cats aren't there to entertain the customers but sometimes come to cuddle as they wish.

I had the vegan pancake which was more like a crepe for me. Anyway it was very tasty. So if you search for an alternative to the standard pancake try this one.

Cafe with cats

Really yummy food with a great selection. Menu is super clear and vegan options prevelant. A lot of sustainable nods - metal straws etc.

More of a cafe with 5 resident cats (and dog!), rather than a typical cat cafe, which I don't like. Cats come and see you if they fancy it, alas I only looked on from afar!

Pros: Tofu baguette , Thai tea!

We are very passionate about sustainability, but we need to get better at communicating this haha! In fact, we are the first plastic free cafe in Luangprabang, so all our take away packaging is fully biodegradable. And we are very proud that the majority of our furniture is made by a local start up that is the first business to recycle plastic in Luangprabang and makes it into sheets. The bench you took the picture from for example! :D
Thanks for noticing and writing about it!

The dream

I have to admit for the first 3/4s of my meal, the cats were nowhere to be seen, then just as I was finishing up they came out in force, lovely place with great food, better service, a cute assortment of gifts to purchase and even accomodation! Although I did not stay

Pros: Cats!, Friendly service, Delicious food

It's true, we focus mainly on fundraising for animals in need and our cats have the freedom to decide where they want to be at any time😄But we're happy that you got to meet them!

Great vegetarian Cafe with lot of vegan options

Lovely cafe with a vegetarian menu and many many vegan options. The food is great!
With their cafe they support sterilisation, vaccination and care of cats in need. They have 5 cats in their cafe but they are free to go in and out as they want so don't expect to see them there all the time.

Lovely little vegan cafe in service of a good cause...

My wife and I were lucky to have visited on a Monday with the recently updated 7-days a week timings.

The vegan Pad Thai had the right combination of tanginess, sweetness and a touch of spicy chilli powder (on the side), with lots of tofu. The Tofu Scramble was on the milder side, so someone looking for a more spicy / zesty option might want to consider something else. Though we were already quite full, there was no resisting the excellent vegan Dutch pancakes (chocolate, peanut butter and banana rules).

To cap off the day, Minnie (one of the cats) decided to grace our table, and I got to see the dog (Sparkles I think) on a previous visit. The service is prompt, but since the food is freshly made, be prepared to wait for a bit. The owner and staff were very friendly and courteous. Note that the kitchen closes 30 minutes before closing.

In summary, don't forget to visit this little gem if you are in this part of the world.

Amazing food & Good Cause

Cute little venue with even cuter residents!! The menu is super flexible with lots of vegan options and well balanced food and treats. Staff are lovely and friendly and the owner Maddie has a massive heart to make a positive difference in the world for our furry friends. Wifi is great for working online too.

Disclaimer: I actually loved the place and vision so much I volunteered there to help revamp the menu and create more vegan options. There is so much love poured into the space from everyone involved, I really hope people love it as much as I have 💛💛💛

Sweet cats, great pancakes

I was here every day during my visit to Luang Prabang. They have a good range of vegan options. I loved their Dutch pancakes and bubble tea. The cats are very friendly when they decide to be sociable.

Amazing food and drinks

I absolutely loved this Cat Cafe. They’re helping support cats and a local rescue.

Now on to the main part…. The food and drinks are so delicious! I visited so many times.

My absolute favourites are:
Breakfast: Coco-Nut butter smoothie bowl
Lunch: Slay all day with added tofu
Drink: coffee with their homemade oat milk and any of their juices.

I met Tommy, Corn and Mini whilst I was there, the cats are free to roam so they’re not always present.
Oh and I met the owners dog, Sparkle.

Pros: Tasty food with great portions, Great consideration of macronutrients , Cats, cats, cats 😻

Lecker + gut für die Katzen in Luang Prabang

Ich hatte frittierten Tofu mit Erdnussdip sowie ein Reisgericht mit Tofu, Gemüse und einer scharfen Soße. Beides war sehr lecker, auch der frische Saft hat gut geschmeckt. Die Besitzerin ist sehr freundlich und es ist toll, dass sie sich für die Katzen in Luang Prabang einsetzt!

Very good coffee

We only had coffee here but we came here twice! The coffee is very good and vegan options for milk are available and the food looks good two. It's a little bit pricey but it's for a good case (they take care of their own cats and street cats too). It's the best cat cafe I ever visited bye the way. The cats are not locked in a room, they are free to come and go whenever they want. I can completely recommend this place :)

Pros: Cats, Coffee, Donations for food cause

Very bad service, average food

Terrible service here, we waited 15 mins for someone to take our order- then 20 mins later they came back and had forgotten the order. From there, we re-ordered to food, and waited another 20 mins!! They do have a few vegan options, still worth a visit- as this service may be a once off! Nice cats in the cafe too.

Hi, I just saw your review here after already replying on Google Maps. We're very sorry, we were very busy that day and made a mistake. We do our very best and we're very sorry that this terrible service happened to you.

For our future customers: we have a mainly vegan menu with some vegetarian options. We don't usually make mistakes like this, but we're only human and we aim to give the best service to all our customers.

Wonderful Cafe with great ethos

Had the most tasty chocolate, banana and peanut butter pancakes (85k) here. The ethos is amazing, cats are free to roam and the owner has a clear love of animals and the Loas culture. A must visit in Luang Prabang for vegans and animal lovers.

Pros: Animal heaven , Pancakes

Wonderful place to hang out in Lianh Prabang

Wonderful relaxed place to chat, hang out or just unwind from the hussle and bussle. Really kind and attentive staff, great vegan options. Super tasty food and I recommend the oat milk mixed fruit smoothie. I had to skip pancakes for dessert as I’d order two mains.

Un sitio genial!

Fui 2 veces aquí. Un día para trabajar y otro para desayunar, ambiente chulo y los michines te acompañan si les apetece. La comida está realmente buena, el tofu scrambled y los pancakes veganos.. uf!
Los marcha tb muy ricos! Totalmente recomendado!

Parte de lo que ganan es para mantener a gatos rescatados de la calle. También venden cositas artesanales gatunas. Me llevé unos posavasos de tela.

Lovey pancakes, friendly staff

Super friendly staff, all the pancakes can be veganised which was very exciting! The banana, peanut butter and chocolate pancakes were unreal. The scrambled tofu baguette was also delicious. There are fewer cats around at the mo as the cafe is having to relocate, but 100% recommend visiting this lovely cafe!
