Summary: superb coffee, fun atmosphere, great place to chill yourself or with some friends or family!
I got a plain latte, as I usually do and it was exceptionally tasty- bold and smooth.
I stumbled on this place on the way home from a family outing and thought I’d treat everyone to a fun experience- and fun it was!
You pay a fee to get in the 3 rooms where the cats are and you must chill and pet them as they come up to you. There’s little toys if you want to try to entice them to play.
I highly recommend going here, even if you only like coffee- there’s plenty of seating away from the cats, with a book area and a table.
My family knows I’m not normally a cat fan, but I had a good time!
All in all it was a great experience and we’ll certainly be back soon- me mainly for the coffee, my family mainly for the cats.

Amazing staff and coffee. The cats are clearly very loved and very well taken care of! Love that they have rules in place for the safety and wellbeing of the cats. Shows how much they take caring for the cats seriously. Was very cheap compared to other cat cafes. Me and my friend can't wait to return next Thursday! Highlight of my week.

We stopped by Cool Beans to spend some time with the kitties. They are all rescues and available for adoption. I had a Carmel macchiato that was pretty good. The cats were a bit timid, but happy to play with you. There are lots of toys around for you to engage with the cats. A few were cuddlier than others.
Cool Beans has a very relaxed energy and the decor is quaint and cute. It is clear the kitties are all well taken care of. I would totally recommend this cafe to all cat lovers!
An amazing quaint, cozy little place to enjoy kittys while enjoying the company of friends and coffee! Definitely recommend! 10/10

Just found this place today and I’m in love! Friendly service, the coffee is pretty tasty as well and all the cats are so cute! I expected some to not be as friendly but they were all very nice and cuddly. There was a couple that would follow you and sit in your lap, I forgot his name but the one addicted to whip cream was by far the best.

What an amazing shop! The coffee is fantastic!! I love the atmosphere and the decor. Back where the cats are is so much fun. They are doing amazing things to find these babies homes. Everyone of them are happy, heathy and well adjusted floofs! This is a must try in downtown Gastonia!
My boyfriend surprised me and took me here and it was the best day of my life! All of the cats are so sweet, calm and well cared for. Highly recommend! The staff was also extremely nice and helpful.

I took my 7 year old cat-obsessed son on a date here and he had the time of his life! The cats were so sweet and friendly, and it was a fun new experience that I didn’t expect to find in Gastonia. Good coffee too.
I didn’t know there would be a fee to go into the cat room, but it was worth it and we will be back! 🐱
What a wonderful place! I went there for the first time yesterday, and it was absolutely amazing!
The coffee was delicious, and the cats were adorable. One even came up to me and sat on me! Friendly staff, friendly cats, good coffee, this place has everything good in the world!
