    If you’re in the area, check out this cat cafe! You’ll meet the friendliest staff that can tell you all about the current cats and enjoy precious kitty time. We adopted our cat from Popoki + Tea and the process was thorough. I appreciate the detail they go into finding the right homes for their cats. You can tell they really care about the cats’ well-being and future. If you live in the area and aren’t able to have a cat of your own at your place, they have a monthly subscription for unlimited visits. Check out their site for more details and rules. Make sure to bring socks! They do have cute ones for purchase as well. Also, to make check-in faster, make sure to fill out the waiver online ahead of time.

    This Cat cafe was fun! They had a decent amount of cats inside. It is 17$ per person, for 50 minutes. Staff is super friendly. Be sure to wear or bring socks, because you have to take off your shoes before entering the cat area! I love that about this cafe, it feels cleaner to be able to sit on the floor and play with the cats. A lot of the cats were sleeping when we arrived but there was still some cats that stayed super playful during our whole stay. I never care about the price at cat cafes since it's probably how they help support the cats, etc. It's worth it to take a visit. Parking can be a bit tough, there is meter parking on the street or parking in the neighborhood next to the cat cafe. Just expect a short walk if you park in the neighborhood!

    We were looking for a feline companion for our rescue kitty and had gone several times to the Humane Society, but never found the right one. We decided to try this cat cafe, and so glad we did. We made an appointment since they’re not accepting walk-ins, and it was easy enough to do it online. On the day of the appointment, we pulled right up to a spot in front of the cafe. After going through their safety protocols and quick orientation at the entrance, we entered the actual cafe, where kittens and cats were happily playing with a few people inside. We thought one kitten would make a good fit with our cat, and were told we could submit an application online while we were there. We did, and went home. A couple hours later, we got a call from a staff member who proceeded to interview us. We apparently passed because we were able to pick up our Nyx in the next half hour. Cost for adoption was $200. Highly recommend coming here if you’re looking for a furry friend!

    My daughters and I recently visited Popoki + Tea while on a trip to Oahu. It was the only thing they requested to do. We had never been to a cat cafe and were very excited to check it out. It was so nice and our 30 minute session FLEW by. We ended up adding on 10 minutes and still were sad to go. On our last day in Oahu, I asked my daughters what they wanted to do and they both immediately chose Popoki + Tea. We made a reservation this time (highly recommend) for the earliest time so the cats weren't tired from previous visitors. We bought treats for the cats and this time booked the 50 minute session. The kids were still sad to go after that long, but we were so glad we made the trip to see the kitties again. Even though we couldn't adopt, it was such an amazing experience (being cat lovers) to hang out with the sweetest cats and put our money towards a company that is helping to find these sweet animals there forever homes. We will definitely be back. Also, an amazing perk, there is the cutest pet store next door and next to that is a fabulous coffee shop! All in all a MUST on your next trip to Oahu.

    Friendly staff and the cats look well cared for. It can get crowded, and not everyone knows how to be with cats…

    Adorable cats! Sign the waiver. $15/person for 50 minutes, not sure why it's not a full hour but the cats are adorable. Employees are well-versed with cats and their behaviors. Depending on the time, there are certain hours when the cats are active, so if you want to play with them and not watch them sleep, research ahead of time. They have drinks available to purchase, as well as cat stickers.

    Had such a great time on my first visit I came back the next day with a friend. Well worth the time & $$$ if you love cats. All very sweet kitties, 10/10. Staff was helpful & informative as well.

    My wife loved it. We were a little disappointed because little kids have designated visiting hours, (we have a toddler) which made our impromptu visit a problem. On the plus side the have good cookies and a deal worked out with the coffee bar down the street for custom drinks. Side note, the cats are cute and if you visit you should really consider adoption.

    Cats were adorable and chill since we went near nap time at 1pm. The cafe interior was fairly clean and well taken cared of. The staff was very polite and courteous.

    I’m so glad I had the chance to visit. I wanted to make sure that I have all the information before I adopt a cat. I also wanted to see how I interact with cats in real life. It was the sweetest moment to interact with them and get all the information necessary for the commitment. If anyone’s thinking about adopting a cat but aren’t sure, they should definitely visit Popoki.

    I volunteered here for 8 months and I have to say, these cats are truly looked after and spoiled. It's a woman owned business with the cats' well-beings at the highest priority. I recommend going during the early morning slot or near closing as the cats are usually more active during those times.

    Such a lovely place! Very peaceful and calm vibe. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. I took my daughter here to relax with the cats for her birthday and she couldn't be happier. $15 per person for 15 minutes. Yeah it may seem expensive, but the price is definitely worth it considering the fact that they are caring for many cats who would have been homeless or worse if not for this wonderful place. I recommend booking an appointment in advance through their website as only 4 people are currently allowed at a time due to everyone working hard to prevent the spread of covid.

    Hi! My aunt's friend owns this Cafe! I've never gone but I have gotten a cat mug from there. It's super cute and I hope to come visit!

    Me and my kids live this cafe. We have been there many times. The cafe is cozy but you are still able to be socially distant. It is clean and well kept. The staff is so friendly and helpful! We will be back!!

    It was such a lovely time here. Played with kitties (should say they babysit me) for almost one hour. All kitties were curious and active. Some liked quiet moment, and I respected them. I will visit again to adapt one or two. Hope all kitties will find their own forever home and family.

    This is one of my favorite cat cafes I've been to so far! Great customer service and very helpful if you have any questions about the kitties. Oh, if you don't have socks on please take a pair. You're gonna need them.

    Very clean and very cute! My only complaint is that there wasn't any bubble tea. Most of the merch implied there would be. Otherwise great staff and wonderful experience!

  • 5/5 Shae R. 1 year ago on Google
    Cute little cat café! Very therapeutic they had about 20 kitties that you could play with. The employees are very knowledgeable of each cat and super friendly! I had a blast and we definitely would go again.

    My husband and I were missing our cats back home so we decided to come here. We had a blast. Price is reasonable and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great time feeding the cats treats and playing with them. Will come back on my next trip!

    Walked in on a Wednesday afternoon and was able to book a 30 minute session easily. The girl at the front was helpful and friendly. There were plenty of cats out to interact with and lots of toys to play with them. They all seemed comfortable and well taken care of. I liked how there's a huge window for them to enjoy the view outside. I've been to a few cat cafes but this one has a cubby for your shoes and cute cat print socks you can buy. After sitting on the rug and getting ready to leave, I realized I was covered in fur and thinking about how I was going to get it all off. They thought of everything! There are lint rollers on top of the shoe cubby! Great first visit and I look forward to future visits.

    My partner and I went to this cafe, and it was awesome. The staff are very friendly, and the kitties are well taken care of. I’m so happy they are rescue cats that are all adoptable! They sell Churu sticks at the front that you can feed the cats, and this is definitely the way to most of their hearts. ❤️

    I love going to this Cat lounge. I love how they all are coming from a Cat shelter called Kat Charities. Liberty is a very nice and accomodating person. And the cats are extremely sweet whom all have a unique personality. I always fall in love with them whenever I come back, and go out feeling calm and satisfied. I recommend this place all the time!!!
