Tucked away in the vibrant streets of Hongdae, Roof Cat Me offers more than just a café—it invites you into a whimsical cat village where about 50 charming felines roam freely in cozy, storybook-like interiors
The café is thoughtfully designed to resemble a miniature village: think attics with brick-like walls, nooks filled with “grass,” a courtyard with a cat-themed fountain, and even a fireplace-lit room perfect for curling up and unwinding. With generous space and comforting lighting, it’s an ideal sanctuary for cat lovers and a charming indoor date spot
Expect to meet around 50 cats of various breeds, from Scottish Folds to Ragdolls, each with its own personality—and many will approach you once they feel at ease. Twice daily, around 1:30 PM and 6:30 PM, the staff orchestrates a feeding time—a delightful moment when the cats gather together, offering a glimpse into their communal behaviors
Your entry includes 3 hours of blissful interaction with the cats, during which you can enjoy free-flow drinks—coffee, tea, lemonade—from a self-service bar. The café also provides lockers and slippers to maintain cleanliness and comfort as soon as you arrive
