"Found this most excellent café en route to William Umstead State Park. This must be one of the most welcoming and warm cafés on the planet. Instantly felt at home and let me say...the owner is as much a cat nerd as a coffee nerd because they served up the best latte I've had in ages. Brilliant roast, and next time I pop by, it'll be espresso. Worth a substantial detour."

"Everyone here is so friendly. Love the community they've established. The coffee is pretty good too! Everything is cat themed, so be ready for that... It's very clean, hospitable, friendly, a lot of unique flavors, and they are a local coffee roaster!!"

"Come see the these amazing ppl! They are directly across the parking lot from the car wash, on the far end of the building. (The location is a little off on Google.) They roast their beans here so you already know the lattes are great. They have some bakery items, good vibes and even fun gifts like bracelets candles and more! Also they do not charge extra for alternative milks 👌🤙 MEOW"

"I'm a caffeine addicated, adhd afflicted game developer who is barely human before ingesting 4+ espresso shots worth of caffeine. Only mentioning that so you know this isn't said lightly: this is the best coffee shop in the triangle. There's no shortage amazing cafes here, but no other spot is a literal 5/5 in every category: - Delicious beans, perfect espresso pulls. - Scrumptious lattes. Menu is creative and expansive. - Warm & friendly atmosphere and staff. - Drinks that cost less than $7, lol. - A cash register that's not an ipad that's "going to ask you a question" (classic right? most deserving of tips; does not solicit them). Family owned and operated. You'll feel like part of it after a few visits. No one asked me to write this. I happily make the drive from Durham to come here and more people need to know about it."

"This is one of north Raleigh’s best hidden gems. Their coffee is amazing simple due to the nature of Bad Cat’s more grand operation and the fact that the mother son duo are incredible people with an affinity for good coffee. The new seating layout is very nice and made the space feel much larger. Always a pleasure stopping through BC."
