The coffee is good but the price boards are all wrong. When I asked the cashier why did she charged me $4.80 for the coffee that was supposed to be $3.20 she responded with a straight face: " The prices are all wrong, they have been wrong since I started working here." So odd... I think they need a manager over there.

Their chai tea latte is the best I have ever had. It's strong and has a good flavor to it. The service was very good as well. The only concern is the bathroom. They only have one bathroom for both guys and girls.

I really like this place. There is something about the atmosphere here that really makes it perfect for studying. From my experience it's the best computer friendly cafe I SB. If the coffee were better I'd give it 5 stars.

One of the best parts of the Coffee Cat that sets them apart is the fact that they use Green Star Coffee/Espresso. (organic fair trade) Honestly the best place in all of SB to get a perfect espresso.

Coffee Cat was HOPPING today on a Sunday afternoon. I mean straight up stupid busy. I ordered a fine Americano, which was most certainly delicious, and I was happy to be served in a glass mug (opposed to wasting a tree in the name of a cup). The baked goods were few and far between, but I was going strictly for the coffee. The ambiance is cool with a few rooms that flow from one to the next. But I was annoyed to find that every single table was full with some schmo on their Apple computer. Very few people uttered a word as they were engrossed in their computing. C'est la vie... talking is sooo oh-eight.
