《 About Us 》
The Kitty's Catfish Café - affectionately known as "Kittyfish" - had meager beginnings, first taking root in a bright-eyed Miqo'te's cramped apartment. Even after upgrading to a roomier location and blossoming into a successful venue within the La Noscean Mist, it's never lost its heart - nor forgotten its original purpose: providing a welcoming atmosphere for all crowds while serving fresh homemade meals, drinks, and desserts.Making people happy makes us happy! Let us know what we can do to make your day brighter.Click on the icons below to learn more about us!

A delicately fragranced infusion brewed from tiny yellow chamomile flowers.¤ Ishgardian Tea | 3000 gil
Rather than adding milk to boiling water that has been infused with tea leaves, as is the fashion in lower Eorzea, Ishgardian tea is brewed by boiling yak milk and letting dried Coerthan tea leaves steep right into the hot liquid.¤ Triple Cream Coffee | 4000 gil
Freshly roasted ground coffee beans percolated to perfection and mixed with an equal amount of thick dairy cream.¤ Masala Chai | 5000 gil
The Coerthan tea leaves may provide the base, but it's the cinnamon and Amber cloves that add the signature sweet and aromatic flavor to this traditional beverage.¤ The Kitty's Catnap Tea | 2000 gil
Recently unearthed from a worn herbology tome, this homemade blend is sure to knock your lights out before you finish! Made from a special blend of valerian root, chamomile, licorice, and a few secret ingredients. It might be a little bitter, but it definitely works. TO GO ONLY.

《 SIDRIGH URA 》
(he/him)
Called "Sid" by his adoptive parents, Kas and S'oun, this soft spoken young man is often found hosting patrons at the café. He has friendly disposition, even if he's a bit timid. He is quite large, even for an Au Ra, and is self-conscious of his intimidating appearance.Favorite Menu Item: Doman Tea
《 S'oun Pinh 》
(she/her)
Founder of the café, greeter, server, all around people pleaser. She has a lively personality and nothing makes her happier than brightening people's days. Namazu inexplicably seem to follow her around and give her crystals.Her mother, the grizzled Keeper Behsa "Mama" Pinh, guards the front of the cafe, and even helps with some of the cooking.Favorite Menu Item: Mama's traditional stew
《 Kasandri Shai'moltal 》
(he/they)
S'oun's husband, a grade A twink, and the heart of the kitchen. Despite being a flirty goofball, Kas takes his job very seriously, hand-picking nearly every ingredient and ensuring that each tasty treat is baked to perfection. He can almost always be found livening up the kitchen by dancing and singing along with the café jukebox.Need an omnicrafter? If you have the materials, he has the skill! If you need something made, just send him a tell and give him the mats; he'll make it on the spot, no charge.Favorite Menu Item: Ginger Shortbread Cookies
《 Rian Warsong 》
(they/them)
This boisterous, motormouth of a Highlander decided to help out at the café on a whim despite being a regular. They absolutely love chatting up patrons to the point of being woefully unfocused as a waiter; but perhaps that’s their charm point? After all, nothing matters more to Rian than the happiness of others! Even if it does means stubbornly goading a shy customer into socializing all night, or dragging people outside for an impromptu sparring session...Favorite Menu Item: Triple Cream Coffee
《 Sera'li Zhinsa 》
(he/they)
A young server prone to both tears and anger at the drop of a hat. His incredibly nervous demeanor aside, Sera’li works hard to prove himself to both staff and customers. A little bit of praise goes a long way for this Miqo’te, but he’ll do his best no matter what! Often attempts to hide behind the other staff, even if it doesn’t quite work.Favorite Menu Item: Chamomile Tea
《 Rondo Vlasch 》
(he/they)
A gentle giant, eager to make new friends.Doesn't like being called by his last name.
《 Buttercup 》
(she/her)
La creatura.
