Reviews for Orange Cat Cafe in Farmington, ME
I love this place. It's very good and fresh. Very LGBTQIA+ friendly. Staff wears masks. The atmosphere is cozy and colorful. The... seating is comfortable. It's a small Cafe with outside seating. I love the lights and the plants. They're open 10am-3pm everydayand breakfast ends around 11ish. The "Garden Tuna" is fresh, crunchy, and flavorful. The "Soup of the Day" is always worth it.

Update later in review. Great food (full marks for that) but communication was sadly lacking and they were short staffed. When... our food was delivered it wasn't quite right and my daughters taco salad was without the proper ingredients. They were out ofsome ingredients but didn't inform her of that and substituted a different ingredient. She has a lot of food sensitivities andwhat they subbed for the proper taco salad ingredient she usually doesn't eat as it sometimes makes her sick. Fortunately shewas ok. They also had delivered my veggie burger to another table and the gentleman there had started to eat it but one of thestaff stopped him and asked if he had the right sandwich. He then said it didn't look right. She said it was a veggie burgerand she'd get the right sandwich. Then my veggie burger was brought out immediately (I know they are supposed to throw awayanything that another customer has touched but the timing made me question and the burger looked a little broken up on the breadI had UPDATE: Owner verified it was new, thanks to the owner i may go back). The Chai tea was excellent and is now one of myfavorites. Maybe we'll be back though as I didn't feel sure of what either I or my daughter was eating. Read more
This cafe is where you can experience the best of Farmington!! The food is absolutely delicious and well priced considering that... most items are homemade or naturally grown/raised. If that alone isn?t enough to draw you in, the atmosphere most surely will.This is hands down the safest place for LGBTQ+ community members in the area. With an almost all-queer staff ready to servecustomers of all identities, pride flags and other inclusion-centered decor filling the restaurant, and a bi-weekly Pride PowerHour dedicated to LGBTQ+ people and allies, this cafe celebrates queer joy, love, and life in a very special way. This all beingsaid, the most respectable aspect of this cafe, in my opinion, is the owner. Not only does the owner actively advocate for herLGBTQ+ staff, but she shows appreciation for their bravery as out and proud queer people. For example, rather than expecting theOCC employees to work during Farmington?s first Pride event, she decided to give her staff the weekend off so they could be partof such a significant celebration of their existence. By doing this, the owner showed her staff that their queerness is worthmore than just business and profit. Considering we live in a time of rainbow capitalism, this decision grew my respect for thiscafe exponentially and it is now one of the only places I eat at in Farmington. OCC, thank you for all you do for thiscommunity! Read more

Love this spot! Fun atmosphere and friendly employees. Nice to have some vegetarian options that can easily be made vegan. They... even came out to let us know they discovered one of their condiments on the sandwich was not vegan and offered an alternative-can't say enough how much we appreciate this thoughtfulness! Yummy bagel, veggie burger, and veggie wrap. Looking forward togoing back to try their coffee! Read more
Nice place, very friendly staff. Food was very good. They have a variety of espresso based specialty drinks as well as regular... coffee and lots of tea options. Oh and the desert options are backed in house. The Apple Fritter is my favorite. This is asmall place with limited seating so you may have to wait for a table or do take out. Read more
Nice selection of wraps and salad. The Portion size is good. This will be one of our stops for when we are in Farmington.
