text: I typically enter into a coffee shop with the hope of getting a delicious cup of coffee or espresso I arrived at the Smelly Cat with this expectation and was severely disappointed The coffee was very bland and my friend who ordered espresso was also disappointed in her order It is definitely a cool place to hang out despite our lack of proper caffeine buzz we played Scrabble for at least two hours There are board games to be played and it would be an excellent place to study with some goodies onhand to nosh on I would not recommend Smelly Cat for a delicious or satisfying cup a joe
