Tolles Essen, freundliche Kellner & süße Katzen - Edit
Wir hatten eine ganz wundervolle Zeit im Katzentempel (in der Innenstadt). Es gibt eine große Auswahl an Speisen & alles was wir probiert haben war sehr lecker & die Portionen waren groß. Es wird sehr darauf geachtet, dass die Katzen ihre Distanz wahren können & der Laden war sehr sauber & man fühlt sich schnell wohl. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!

Lecker und sehr gemütlich - Edit
Sobald man reinkommt, entspannt man direkt! Und das Essen war sehr lecker - auch schön, dass sie auch auf andere ökologische Kriterien achten (z.B. Erbsenaufstrich statt Avocado benutzen). Die Katzen sind aber nicht sehr verschmust, wo man sich drauf einstellen muss - was aber auch bei den vielen Gästen sehr verständlich ist.

Leckeres Essen mit süßen Kätzchen - Edit
Waren auf der Suche nach einem Veganen Lokal und fanden den Katzentempel. Wir hatten Burger, Salatbowl und veganen Nachtisch. Das Essen war super. Dazu die super süßen Katzen. Wir kommen gerne wieder. ❤️

Tolles Katzenkaffee - Edit
Die Katzen sind sehr sehr niedlich. Tolles Ambiente, netter service und mein Eisbecher “Pedro” war sehr lecker. Die Toiletten waren sauber und das kleine Detail mit den Notfalltampons war 10/10, because you never know.

Man kann auch eine Patenschaft für eine Katze abschließen mit einem beliebigen Betrag. Es gibt auch süße Souvenirs wie z.B. Postkarten, Tassen, T-Shirts, etc.
Pros: Es gibt sieben Katzen, Alles vegan, Umfangreiches Angebot
Cons: Bissl teuer

Adorable cats and yummy food - Edit
Apart from having a hard time to get a table at this place (we had to wait three days before we could place a reservation!), visiting the Katzentempel was a wonderful experience. We ordered a salad and a Beyond Burger, both of which did not disappoint. Despite only spending aroun 30 minutes there we met almost all of the cats and it was a joy to interact with them. The staff was very friendly and happy to share cute stories about the cats. I'd love to go there again to try out more of their food and get to know the cats better.

Katzen :-) - Edit
Der Katzentempel lebt von den Begegnungen mit den haarigen Tieren. Das Katerfrühstück war ok, der Scrambled etwas sehr salzig, vielleicht hätte mir das mit einem tatsächlichen Kater besser geschmeckt. Der weisse Schokokuchen war superlecker.

Oh so lovely place! - Edit
Katzentempel is one of my favourite ones in Leipzig.
Read moreIn the evenings it gets very full, so reservations might be required. But during daytime there is always some space to go and have a good lunch. The lunch offers are usually one soup with fresh bread and one main dish (a burger, rice dish, anything).
The menu is quite enough. Even tho right now on their website it is quite short, in reality it is longer. The menu is also available in English, of course, and the staff is very helpful. They offer also a variety of nice warm and cold coffee and tea drinks, plus one is always on the daily offer (when I last went, it was delicious pumpkin spice latte).
I would say the portions aren't too big, but they do fill the stomach. Also they feel light and creative, the sauces are very good.
The addition of cats is just adorable, there is quite many of them, their names are listed also on the back of the menu. They are very friendly with people, but it is also cool to see them climb below the ceiling. And they indeed are just everywhere, there's always one sleeping next to the counter where you can pay later. There are many signs that say not to grab them and they also have another room to go to when they get tired. Surprisingly, the place is very very clean, no cat hair to be seen anywhere.

super nice place!! amazing cakes!! - Edit
we were lucky to find a table here: the place is busy - and for a good reason! the cats are adoreable! but the service, drinks and - especially? - the cakes are fantastic, too!
Read morewe had some hot drinks on a cold winter evening and shared a "Donauwelle" - a cake my boyfriend usually doesn't like. but he approved - i was very happy with that coice! ;)
some cats were curious, others just wanted to relax and i love that this is respected here (kids were a little annoying and getting close to the cats, but, well - kids...)
would come here anytime again and probably try their hot food next time!
Pros: very nice service, delicious drinks & cakes, cats cats cats

Relaxing with cats / Entspannend mit Katzen - Edit
My partner and I split the Tempel sandwich and potato wedges, which came with really good sauces: ketchup and their own vegannaise. There was seitan in the sandwich and it was interesting - it had a different taste than what I’d tried before. The salad that came with it had a really good orange balsamic sauce. The apple ginger iced tea was refreshing and not sweet.
Read moreIt was so entertaining to watch the cats interact with each other and play on the toys. Sometimes the staff throw food for them and they chase it and slide all over the floor. The best toy is this huge wheel that the cats can get in and run on. It’s hilarious and one of them, Wanda, uses it a lot!
Mein Partner und ich teilt das Tempel sandwich und die kartoffeln spalten. Die kommen mit sehr gute soße: ketchup und ihr eigene vegannaise. Das sandwich hat seitan und es war interessant. Es hat eine andere gechmack als andere vegannaise. Der Salat das kommt mit hat eine lecker orange balsamico soße. Der apfel ingwer eis tee war erfrischend und nicht suß.
Es war sehr unterhaltsam zu schauen die Katzen mit einander und mit die Spielzeuge spielen. Manchmal die mitarbeiter hat Katzen essen geworfen und sie verfolgen und rutschen über den fußboden. Die beste Spielzeug ist die groß Laufrad für die Katzen. Es ist lustig und eins von ihnen, Wanda, es sehr oft benutzt.
Pros: Cats! / Katzen!, Nice vibe, Friendly staff
Cons: A bit expensive

Not bad! - Edit
I like coming here, because cats! However, just judging at their food and coffee, I would say it's mostly alright. I've had a cappucino that seemed like something you could get at a run of the mill bakery (except they had many plant-based milks AND I think they got rid of the cow milk option, so kudos :)) The cake I got was pretty good. The tofu scramble was okay.
Read moreFor the cat part of the catfe, I think it'd be really nice if they started a cat adoption center. It wouldn't need to in the main part where all the guests are, but I think having something like this would make guests more willing to spend more money. Just a thought!
Pros: Cats, Cakes, Many plant-based milks
Cons: Espresso drinks are soso

Good food & cute cats - Edit
We went there for the cats but also really liked the food. Had a Tempel sandwich and soup, both very good. Also had a delicious pancake. Being surrounded by the cats, even if they were just sleeping most of the time, is quite relaxing and makes this a special place with a laid-back vibe.

Great place not only for cat lovers - Edit
If you love cats, you have to go there, the cats are gorgeous and I had always the feeling, that they are treated very well. The food is delicious and you have a good choice of food and drinks with changing offers. Everything is vegan, except the optional organic milk for coffee. I really like the scrambled "egg", though it was a little bit salty. I tried different cakes as well and liked all of them. The staff was always very friendly.

Super cozy and delicious food - Edit
I've eaten here on various occasions and it's always super cozy here. The cats are super cute and friendly, staff is also very nice. I've had the pancakes with chocolate which was really nice, the coconut milk rice which was amazing, and the Smoothie bowl which was a bit boring and too runny for my taste. The matcha latte with oat milk is also super good. The muesli is really boring especially considering its price. A granola would be nice but it's primarily rolled oats...
