Cat Temple in Heidelberg: Enjoy vegan and experience animal protection!
A new gourmet address has arrived in Bahnstadt: On July 14, 2025, the Katzentempel opened in Heidelberg, a restaurant that combines vegan delicacies with animal welfare (Heidelberg24). The location is just a few minutes' walk from the main train station and is therefore easily accessible. There are around 80 seats available in a spacious area of 190 square meters, including inviting outdoor spaces that invite you to linger.
At the Cat Temple everything revolves around conscious enjoyment and sustainability. Host Beate Künzer is not only committed to promoting a mindful lifestyle, but also takes care of the restaurant's four-legged residents, the so-called temple cats. These all come from animal welfare and can delight guests with their purring charm. The popular cats include Ognop, Pruko, Bibbi, Lord Meow and Denethor, who contribute significantly to both the atmosphere and the concept of the cat temple.
Culinary offer and philosophy
The menu features a variety of vegan dishes that are lovingly prepared - from breakfast to sandwiches, burgers and bowls to sweet desserts. Particularly noteworthy is the spelled bread, which is baked fresh every day and is becoming increasingly popular (Katzentempel). The opening times are generous: Monday to Thursday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday until 10 p.m. and Sundays and public holidays until 9 p.m.
The entire concept not only promotes the welfare of animals, but also a sustainable lifestyle. The combination of delicious food and animal welfare attracts not only vegans, but anyone interested in a more conscious lifestyle. The atmosphere is characterized by healthy, lovingly prepared dishes and the cheerfulness of the temple cats, which makes the restaurant a special place in the Heidelberg gastronomy scene.
There is growing interest in vegan and animal-friendly concepts in regional gastronomy. This was recently the case with the restaurant “269” in the Westend of Frankfurt, which pursues a similar goal. The focus there is also on plant-based cuisine without animal or human suffering (Genussmagazin). Such an encouraging example shows that the cat temple is certainly not alone in the growing trend towards conscious nutrition and animal welfare.
Overall, the cat temple in Heidelberg offers a unique opportunity to combine enjoyment and animal protection and thus carry an important message to the world. So if you're looking for a new taste experience, you shouldn't miss this new culinary gem.
