Let me start by saying that if you love animals this IS the place for you! Cats are free to run around and jump on tables as they please. If you are one of those odd human beings that hate cats, I strongly recommend you avoid this spot! The Crazy Cat Café is a bar, bistro, coffee shop that just opened in the centre of Milan. This place is also the home of 6 wonderful cats, Mina, Bowie, Elvis, Freddie, Blondie and Patti that can usually be found napping on tables or playing with friendly customers. These adorable furry balls were all adopted from shelters or difficult situations and given a home where they could grow and play.
I recommend the café for an aperitivo during the week, as there is often a line to get a table during the weekend. You can enjoy a cocktail with an assorted array of cheeses or various finger food. The atmosphere is home-like and cozy with sofas, a piano and vintage wood tables.
PS- For obvious reasons, you are not able to bring a dog at this coffee spot.
