Great food, cute cats

Romeow was by far the best cat cafe we have ever been to, both in relation to the food and the care for the cats. The place is tastefully decorated, the cats are relaxed and several groups of locals seemed to genuinely to come just for the food.
The bistro is completely vegan. We got starters, two mains and dessert and everything tasted great.

Cat Bistro

Food was amazing, so much choice. Service is a little slow but that seems to be the Italian way! We booked late and got sat outside so no cat interactions, none the less food was amazing some of the best we had on this trip!

The purrfect restaurant

Absolutely loved having dinner here with the gorgeous cats. The food is on the fancy end so expect to pay for it accordingly but it is amazing, staff are lovely and obviously cats. Cats everywhere.

Pros: Amazing fancy food, Cats. Cats. More cats.

Cons: Try and get a table downstairs if you can

Good vibes e cibo buonissimoW da Romeow

Il locale ha delle vibes fighissime, il solo fatto che ci sono gatti che girano tranquillamente per il locale, dormono giocano o si arrampicano lo rende un posto particolare, il locale e super curato e pulito, e il personale simpatico. Il cibo e stra buono, una cucina gurmet vegana. Assolutamente da provare, i dolci hanno la fama di essere buonissimi, purtroppo io e il mio amico (non vegano che ha gradito tantissimo la cucina vegana) andavamo di corsa e non abbiamo potuto aspettare per provare più cose. Sicuramente tornerò.

I really enjoyed this place!

I loved the concept and the menu of this 100 vegan restaurant, with a perfect mix of fine dining in a casual and cozy environment. The floats were top notch and you can tell there was passion in the food and plating. I loved what I had and looked at others peoples dishes with envy since it all looked delish. Not to mention the sweet and well behaved cute kitty cats hanging around wherever they please!

Pros: 100 percent vegan menu , Very nice staff , Cats just hanging out with you

Cons: A little ways away from city center

I so wanted to love it

Lovely cats, lovely servers, presentation was amazing, and the decor was great…. But the food just wasn’t very nice.

We had a first and second course each and none tasted very nice. We couldn’t finish. The pad Thai was too salty, the tofu and sweet potato just tasted entirely of lemon. Every single element in that dish might have been a lemon. And the whole meal came to nearly €80…

I really wanted to love it, but unfortunately the food is the main element of a meal and at that price I really expected better.

Pros: All vegan , Nice cats, Attentive service

Cons: Just didn’t taste great, Expensive

Great vegan breakfast!

We stupidly came here on a Monday only to realise they were closed. Before coming back the next day, my (non-vegan) sister said to me, "This better be worth it!", and after our visit she agreed that it definitely was! We ordered pancakes and smoothies, which were both pretty and delicious. The cats are really cute, the only slightly annoying part was a group of children running after them. Our waiter was friendly. Overall the atmosphere is lovely, at least in the morning when we came.

Pros: Vegan, Delicious pancakes, Adorable cats

Cons: Bit pricey

Fully vegan cat cafe, everything we had was delicious! Best place we went in Rom

Every thing on the menu was vegan, and everything was delicious. The coconut Carpaccio blew me away. Pad Thai was a group fave, I loved Seitan curry. Desserts all good especially the cheese cake. Staff really friendly started off as just a vegan place but the owner had cats so she thought to combine the too. Such a nice day.

Pros: All Vegan, Friendly Cats, Range of drinks too

Cons: If you don’t like cats

Purrfect Way to Start our Vacation

We kicked off our first meal here in Rome and not only loved the concept with it being a cat cafe, but also the food was delicious! Had a wonderful pesto pasta dish and my partner had a tempeh dish and both were so flavorful and beautifully prepared. Some cats were more social than others, but overall lovely experience and high recommend adding it to the list! The food was definitely more upscale than your typical cat cafe, which was even more exciting!

Don't skip this place

Full and satisfied (my stomach was almost empty before getting there) a la cart, affordable for what you get, paid around 50€ (no drinks). Well presented dishes.
The paper runners were too cute.

Perfect!

We came here on our honeymoon for a nice sit down dinner. The atmosphere was awesome. It definitely set the mood! The cats were a nice bonus too! This is great if you're looking for a more upscale Vegan restaurant in Rome. Delicious!

Esperienza bellissima

Oltre ad ammirare i gatti del locale che scorrazzano pacfici tra e sopra le persone, abbiamo trovato la cucina molto ricercata ed elaborata, con piatti deliziosi dal gusto inaspettato, ingredienti freschi e di ottima qualità.

Cons: Leggermente costoso

Yeeey cats

We had a lovely time here, the cats were cute and the breakfast was good. We had a coconut milk, mango and vanilla smoothie, a cold cappuccino and pancakes. The place seems like a lovely place for the cats, with many places to sleep, climb and play, they even had a space in the window for them to get fresh air.
The only thing was that it didn’t say anything that they have a mid day cleaning around 12 so we had to go.

Pros: CAaaaaats

Cons: It was expensive

Too expensive and food doesn’t taste good

The only good thing are the cats.. I really didn’t like the food. It wasn’t spicy it did taste like nothing and also very expensive.. 6€ for a beer, 15€ for 3 slices of tofu..

Pros: Cats

Cons: Too expensive

we are very sorry about your review. Perhaps our food does not meet your tastes but believe me that all the money spent is because behind it there is a great deal of work and very high quality products. we hope that you will come back to find us in such a way that you can change your mind. thank you

Delicious food!

We loved everything about this vegan bistro. Don’t even give it a second thought- go here! Highly recommend making a reservation. We had three days in Rome and ate here one day for lunch. We ended up loving it so much we made a reservation for dinner the next night. There were about 2/3 Italians and 1/3 tourists both times. The food was excellent (save room for dessert!), atmosphere funky and hip, and it was very clean. It was an excellent cat habitat with lots of places to sleep, climb, play, and escape. Lunch had a quieter vibe and the cats were around a lot more (under the tables, on the tables, walking around). Our servers were friendly and efficient.

LO ADORO

Questo posto è accogliente e il cibo è fenomenale, si vede che c'è uno studio molto approfondito dietro ai piatti che servono.
I mici poi contribuiscono a un ambiente caldo e confortevole 🥰

Cake, coffee, and cats!

We stopped by Romeow for an afternoon coffee and snack. I had a cappuccino with hazelnut milk and the raw cake. The cats are so cute and may come to say hello, or just sleep cozily. Make sure you pay close attention to their opening hours on the website. Reservations are required for lunch and dinner, and breakfast and snack times are quite specific.

Pros: All vegan, Adorable cats, Delicious cakes

Cons: Complicated hours

Purrfect food and great service

We ate a la carte and the food was fantastic. Good value but high quality food. Wine list modestly priced but good too. Don’t know what the issues with service are that have been reported but everyone was wonderful. Make the trip and get away from the tourists for a great vegan meal.

Not too well impressed

Had to modify my review coming here two years after the first time.
The venue hasn't changed but the menu yes. A list of over-elaborated and expensive stuff, a good way to allure turists, but nothing really impressed me.
I felt like having a dish for a quick lunch, but you are required to get a minimum of two!!
Staff not very kind and obsessed with checking your health pass (if you are Italian, It doesn't apply to tourists...ridiculous)

Absolutely lovely

We went there as a party of five (including a three year old child) for lunch and were very pleased with everything. The staff was exceptionally friendly (already when we made the reservation), the atmosphere of the place was really nice, the cats were cute and chill and the food was absolutely delicious! Finally an all vegan place to have a full meal (not just your usual vegan burger or pizza without cheese) that is not even that expensive. Our total bill was under 150€ which is absolutely okay for Rome. I didn't have any wine, but my friends said it was really good too. The place is really worth a visit!

Pros: All vegan, very tasty , Very friendly staff, Cats (obviously)

lovely experience

the food is to tasty and different from most stuff you’ll find in rome! the atmosphere is great and the fact that you can study in there during the week is a big plus.

the cats are the cutest and they are so used to people, which means they are really relaxed, it’s so nice to see them while you eat

it is a bit pricy tho
