Cat Pawcino Cat Cafe in Newcastle upon Tyne

Lovely staff and a great selection of cats to play with and give a little cuddle. Very reasonable in comparison to other cat cafes around. Yoh do have to pre book as it gets very busy.

It was such a treat to return here years after it had been a refuge for me on a difficult work trip to Newcastle in 2018. Simba (I think) jumped on my back literally within 30 seconds of walking through the door and all the cats were incredibly charming (in such adorably different ways) for the rest of my visit. The staff are really friendly and their love of the cats is palpable.

Visited this cafe for the first time last week, it was a great experience! Our beverages were tasty, and the member of staff was very polite. The cats were very affectionate towards her, so we could tell they're treated with care. We were given treats to feed cats, and they were all over us! The ragdoll and sphinx cats were the most affectionate, they would sit in our laps and ask for cuddles, they were so cute! Would recommend 100%.

It has a really nice calming environment. The cats are really friendly and playful. The staff is very helpful and approachable.

Very much enjoyed this place. Drinks prices are very reasonable, and the entrance fee goes to take care of the kitties so happy to pay it. The kitties themselves were in a sleepy mood when we visited, but still allowed pets, and when up and about would play a bit. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Lovely place I really enjoyed my time there. The owner and staff were so nice they engaged with me and the cats were so lovely as well. They obviously keep the cats healthy and entertained and care about their mental health as they take breaks. The food was lovely... I will be a frequent customer for sure.

Friendly staff that make you feel welcome and a lovely calm atmosphere. Cats are fluffy and the food is good.

We enjoyed our visit to the cat café, and the staff were very friendly, but we didn't quite think it did justice to the money we spent there. The cover charge of £5 a person felt like a lot for the 4 of us and added to the light lunch (toastie, drink and tray bake each) we had there, we came away having spent £53(!) which made it an expensive outing for our family.The cats were lovely (there were 8 of them the day we went) and most of them were happy to be petted. They were all in excellent condition and the long-haired ones were gorgeous to stroke, however they mostly kept to themselves and dozed in the many cool cat beds that were in the shop (or on top of the café diary in one amusing case) This is what I'd expect from regular cats, but I'd hoped for cats that might be a bit more interested in people in a cat café.Overall, the cats didn't add that much to the café experience other than being really laid back and beautiful ornaments (that occasionally rearrange themselves) with the usual worship-me attitude that cats have. And of course they could be petted, although, be careful, there were 2 that were touchy and took a swipe at me when they were bored with being petted.The one cat who really interacted with us and our children was a foster kitten with loads of attitude, and she injected some much-needed life with her antics. She was all over the shop, waking up some of the others occasionally, and our kids had fun with her. They regarded their time there as a good experience, and I'm glad we went, but would add, a bit sadly, that we can't afford to go back.

If you love cats, you'll love this place. I called in on a Thursday evening and there were a few other people there. If you are planning to go earlier, it may be better to book your spot either by phone or online. Entry is £5 which gives you an hour in the café. I had a coffee and a cheese scone which were lovely. The cats are friendly and absolutely gorgeous. My visit coincided with the cat's feeding time. I will certainly go back.

My sister and I stumbled across this place as we were looking for somewhere to have lunch and it absolutely made our day! We had tea for two (the tea sets are utterly charming) and the sandwiches, scones and desserts that accompanied were all very tasty. The cats are well behaved and soft, and the staff offer cat treats to tempt them with - the staff themselves are very friendly too. Overall an excellent experience, would recommend!
