Boston’s Only Cat Cafe Gets One Step Closer to Opening in Beacon Hill | Eater Boston

"After winning approval from the city's Zoning Board of Appeals — a vote where five board members verbally said yes and one even meowed affirmatively — I learned that an incoming coffee shop aiming to be Boston’s only cat cafe is planned as a combo coffee shop, cat lounge, and bookstore. Beacon Hill resident Brittany Baker is behind the project, which she hopes to open in a former bank branch at 80 Charles Street (between Pinckney Street and Mt Vernon Street); next she must obtain a health variance from the city in order to make coffee drinks on-site." - Erika Adams
