The cafe, which has a large selection of drinks and small bites to choose from, is also a great space to do some work.

To learn more about the cafe, BuzzFeed spoke to cofounder Coppy Holzman about where this idea for a dog cafe came from and what their overall mission is.

Coppy said, "Logan and I wanted to create the happiest place in the world that was dog friendly."

And if you want to check out this place, please do so ASAP, as the shop is unfortunately set to close at the end of this month. This is not only saddening, but means one less place for dogs to enjoy each other's company.
