Cloud Nine: Osaka Shin-Osaka

[Update: temporarily closed and planning to reopen in Autumn 2023. Check their website for details.] Founded in 2007, Catteria Cloud Nine is a small suburban neighborhood restaurant with an attached lounge area where you'll find a few cats prowling around and several more sleeping. There aren't any cat-cafe rules here - no taking off your shoes or sterilizing your hands - just come on in (don't let the cats out), grab a seat and have a drink.

The cat zone spreads over two floors, connected by a narrow staircase. Both levels are filled with antique furnishings, with a couple of tables and easy chairs upstairs if you want to read a book and drink coffee, and eight seats downstairs. Quiet vocal jazz plays in the background. The cover charge is relatively cheap - our Y1000 included a beer, and it's cheaper if you just want a soft drink. There's a full food menu as well.
