CATEA is not so much a cat café, specialising in premium brewed Chinese teas, cold brew teas, tea mocktails and small bites or sweets to pair with the tea.

Vibes at CATEA are meant to evoke a sense of calm and tranquility, with cosy wood-inspired decor, and treehouse-inspired cat tree with a swing for the cats to play on. According to online reviews, there are about 7 ragdoll cats currently roaming the space; and there’s no entrance fees required to play with them. All you have to do is be a dine-in customer at the teahouse and you’re free to interact with the friendly cats there.
