Why Catzen Coffee Is the Coolest Café in St. Paul Right Meow
There’s a kind of buzz on Grand Avenue and it’s not just the espresso.
This isn't your average coffee shop, it’s a whole experience, tailor-made for anyone who’s ever dreamed of sipping a latte while being silently judged by a smug tabby (we mean that in the best way).
From the moment you step inside, it’s clear, Catzen isn’t trying to be quirky. It is quirky, in the most elevated, effortlessly cool way.
The café space is minimalist and cozy, while the glass-walled “Cat Den” next door feels like you’ve stepped into an indie film set where the main characters are all purring.
Cats aren’t just accessories. They’re permanent residents, each with their own personality, backstory, and unbothered attitude.
Some will curl up next to you. Others might give you a blink of approval and walk away like you just got rejected by royalty. And honestly? That’s the charm!
But what really makes Catzen pounce ahead of the pack is how thoughtfully it’s all been designed.
Coffee? Top-tier.
Pastries? Local and delicious.
Staff? Welcoming, knowledgeable, and somehow managing a business and a crew of feline co-workers without breaking a sweat.
We got into the experience and let’s just say: we left with a newfound sense of inner peace.
Curious to meet the cats, learn their stories, and find out how Catzen became one of the most talked-about spots in the city?
