Nabi Cat Café, located at 2255 The Alameda in Santa Clara, California, is the Bay Area’s first Korean-inspired cat café, blending a passion for rescue cats with a cozy, cultural twist. Founded by sisters-in-law Christine Hedeen and Ailee Kim, this charming spot opened its doors on March 18, 2025, after a successful Kickstarter campaign. Visitors can sip Korean-inspired drinks like tiramisu lattes and matcha sourced from Jeju Island, Korea, enjoy pastries from local bakeries, and spend time with adoptable cats in a serene, stylish lounge. Partnering with Town Cats, Nabi—meaning "butterfly" in Korean, a nod to street cats—aims to ease shelter overcrowding by fostering and finding forever homes for its feline residents, while offering guests a calming escape from the everyday. Operating on a timed-entry system (one hour with a complimentary drink included), the café is open Tuesdays through Sundays, from 10 AM to 7 PM, with student discounts available and a vibrant atmosphere enriched by the founders’ Korean heritage, making it a standout destination for cat lovers and coffee enthusiasts alike in the heart of Santa Clara.
