If there’s one thing that we can never have enough of, its pet cafes. Thankfully for us, our friendly neighbour, Johor Bahru, has plenty of unique pet and cat cafes that can keep us well entertained.
If visiting a pet cafe is your hobby — don’t worry, we totally get it — then you’ll definitely have to add By Mood Cafe to your list of cat cafes in JB to visit.
By Mood Cafe is located along Austin Crest in Johor Bahru and is home to eight cuddly and sassy cats. But while they might appear grumpy, these cats are super friendly and playful so you’ll definitely be in for a good time.
Some of the cats here are dressed in quirky outfits too, which further adds to their colourful personalities. Fun fact: most of the cats here were also adopted by the lady boss herself — love that for her.
Apart from cuddling with the resident kitties, cat-owners are also welcome to bring their own furkids along too, just as long as you keep a watch over them and don’t cause any cat fights — both figuratively and literally.
One thing about cats is that they’re very selective with who they wanna spend their time with (what a mood), but don’t worry, the cafe also has some toys which these cats absolutely go nuts over. So if all else fails, just grab one of the toys and the kitties will come running to you in no time!
Unlike most other cat cafes out there, another reason you have to check out By Mood Cafe is their hearty menu offerings which includes dishes like Laksa Pasta (S$6.06, RM21), Tonkatsu Don (S$5.77, RM20), Spicy Creamy Pasta (S$5.77, RM20), and Pork Sandwich (S$5.77, RM20) amongst others.
Their most popular dish here is the Moody’s Bagel (S$6.34, RM22) which comprises freshly baked bagels topped with crispy bacon, fresh strawberries and blueberries, bananas, and cherry tomatoes, dusted in icing sugar alongside a drizzle of maple syrup. It’s definitely a medley of sweet, savoury and tangy flavours all in one bite.
For something more savoury, their Mushroom on Bread (S$4.90, RM17) will be right up your alley. It features diced mushrooms, spinach and melted cheese loaded onto toasted sourdough bread.
Drinks-wise, you can look forward to trying some really unique concoctions like the Peach Latte (S$3.75, RM13), Orange Black (S$3.75, RM13), Red Black (S$3.75, RM13), Raspberry Soda (S$4.32, RM15) and more.
By Mood Cafe’s matcha drinks also come highly-raved about, especially the Strawberry Matcha. Matcha lovers, make sure you give their drinks a go! Although, we can’t promise that the little kitties won’t try to steal some from you.
They also have a selection of fresh bakes like canales, scones cakes and more, so make sure to grab them while you’re there!
The best part about By Mood Cafe is that they have no entry fee, however you should at least purchase an item from them just to support the business. And trust us, after all the playing around, you’re gonna need a drink or snack for sure.
Looks like it’s time for yet another weekend trip to JB!
