Have been to the NoCO Car Cafe in Loveland several times when visiting my daughter who is a college student there.
A lovely cafe, wonderful staff and love the kitties! They are very chill there and it is a nice time just sipping a good coffee while watching/interacting with the kitties! One time was there wheh n they had a kitten corral! My daughter enjoyed the kittens, I was scared my clumsy self would fall on one! lol
If you go on the weekend, do give them a call, just to be sure they have room. It is worth the side trip! I am looking forward to my next return.
