Gata Mágica Café And Lounge

it is nicely decorated inside with lights and has a black/purple theme, their logo is a magical purple cat. i tried one of their signature drinks and it was good, about what i expected. i heard they sometimes have a $2 latte on some Monday afternoons but haven't gotten a chance to try that yet

This lovely Cafe near Union was lovely. The vibe was magically laid-back, but the seats and lounge were limited. Many students were studying and hanging out here. WiFi was fast. There were some board games in the lounge. Breakfast and pastries were available. Latte was $2 on Monday. I ordered the Nox latte and egg tart. The egg tart was cold and tasted great. But I may like the hot one. It could taste better after heating. The latte was decent. Definitely a great cafe near campus.

Stopped in with a friend after wanting to visit for quite a while, and I’m glad I did! I ordered a buckeye latte with oat milk, and the classic Gata Magica sandwich on an everything bagel. The latte was sweet, but not overwhelmingly so. The peanut butter flavor really came out, which I’ve not experienced with other peanut butter lattes from other shops! Perfectly balanced with the chocolate. I love that they offer iced drinks in a 12oz, I don’t see that often! The sandwich was amazing too! Perfectly crispy bagel and the “toppings” of the sandwich were portioned so well, very balanced. I also love that they serve the sandwiches on plates that match the color scheme of the shop. My friend got a French toast matcha which was amazing!! It really tasted like French toast, but was not overwhelmingly sweet. My only gripe is that they don’t accept cash. It was no problem for me personally, but being across from a college campus, I can see how that would be an issue for some. Overall, I will be back, that French toast matcha is calling my name!

Great coffee shop. Sakura Soda was magnificent! Great flavor!! Kate did a super job waiting on everyone by herself. She was polite and quick!

The french toast matcha was the best matcha I’ve had. I also love the branding, the ethical practices of the company, and the vibes of the space. The lounge area isn’t too big but I love how they have games. Their oven wasn’t working when I went so I couldn’t try the food.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere here. You could really call it magical, as it’s written in the name! Loved the London Fog too! Barista was really kind and helpful, he was quick, friendly and a pleasure to be served by. Not from the area, but will try to come again!

Atmosphere is very laid back here. Service was great, fast. Very small coffee shop and the lounge area leaves something to be desired (more space). Person taking orders was very accommodating and friendly. We got the cold brew and an organic iced green tea - both were perfect. One of the better cold brews in the area, I think.
