from Google & Yelp"Gibson’s Cat Cafe is more than just a little coffee spot with cats for myself and husband. It is a place we have gone to recover, to heal, and to find a little bit of joy. The owners, Drew and Shelby, didn’t know us from Adam when we first visited years ago. Yet, it felt like we had been friends for a very long time. Since then, my husband and I have drove over an hour multiple times to continue going. Drew and Shelby are very passionate about their mission of saving cats and loving people. We have gained some very awesome friends over the years and are very blessed to have this business that stands by their mission in every way possible! Gibson’s is love, acceptance, and community. Just like any other place, to receive those things, you have to respect the folks and cats around you! I personally order their Fonzie with dark chocolate and that’s never been a miss, so yeah the coffee is pretty good as well! They have other options that I have heard are good and some non-coffee options. We did apply for a cat once! Unfortunately, our apartment denied us. Shelby was just as sad for us as we were. She went an extra mile to try and see if there was any possible way to make it work. For that, we are very grateful to her. Rejection hurts, absolutely! The screenings and approval are necessary. These are little souls and their future needs to be more stable than their past. She takes that very seriously no matter what! Unlike a shelter, they do not need to constantly rotate these cats out to make room for more. The cats can wait for the perfect home and some need that. That makes it so much more special when you truly understand the passion put into their process of adoption. All in all, if you love cats and you love people… Gibson’s is the place for you! If you haven’t gone, I believe you are truly missing out! We love Drew, Shelby, and their little family very dearly. They’ve done wonderful building this business."
"This was our first visit to the new location and it was great! My granddaughter loves cats, but can’t have one. We just came to see the cats and play awhile! I love that it contributes to a good cause. They have canned soft drinks and great coffee. There is also a little bookstore, I believe you can bring 3 and take 3. It’s just an all around nice environment."
"Finally got the chance to visit Gibson’s Cat Café, and it was so much fun! The coffee is delicious, café is cozy, clean, welcoming, and the staff’s super friendly. My daughter and I loved spending time with the kitties - each one has such a sweet personality! If you’re a cat lover (or just looking for a unique, relaxing outing), I highly recommend stopping by. We’ll definitely be back! ☕️😻"
"I'm an Okie from Tulsa and have been to Gibson's twice while visiting a friend who lives nearby. Gibson's beats out my local cat cafes by far! The owners are very friendly and personable. The coffee is absolutely delicious and their signature drinks are named after their beloved kitties, how fun is that?! The visiting prices are extremely reasonable, as are the adoption fees! This family owned and operated business truly cares about the cats they're helping find furr-ever homes. Last I checked, it was over 800 cats adopted! Oh, and check out the neat library in the back with some of the most beautiful cat murals!"
"i've been coming to gibson's quite frequently every since i adopted my cat from here!! owners are always very nice whenever i come to visit!! honestly this place has been my winter obsession... so i've been coming a LOT lol. the coffee is always so good!!!!! They bring it into the lounge at a reasonable time, and it tastes fresh and yummy! the service is great and shelby has always been very friendly! there is a beautiful little library in the back, board games, seating, etc. Worth the visit even if you aren't coming for the cats, honestly! Now for the cats/lounge... AGHHH I always enjoy my visit, and usually 15 or 30 mins isnt long enough for me haha!! If i could visit daily, i would. I adopted my beautiful cat from Gibson's in December, and she has become my absolute world!! Many of these cats are amazing family cats, or typically good with other animals (from what I've noticed!! every cat is different obviously) You make lasting connections with the kitties there, and it is hard not to walk out with 10 adoption apps. it is obvious the amount of care and love that the owners put into the cats. The adoption process for my girl was very simple. I applied during the holidays, and they still got back to me in a timely manner! Cats are only 100 dollars when the adoption is approved, which is AMAZING for purchasing an animal. If anybody says this is unreasonable.... they lying 😭 Okay main point being: 5 stars go support them!!!!"
"Gibsons cat cafe is an absolute oasis in Conway. Some of the reviews here have no understanding of how a cat cafe works, and that's really unfortunate. This..."
