About Jafra

Traditional Middle Eastern coffee, fresh bites, and shisha — in a relaxed lounge built for gathering.

أهلاً وسهلاً

Our story

A taste of home in Inman Square

Jafra Cafe & Lounge brings traditional Middle Eastern coffee, fresh bites, and shisha together in a relaxed, welcoming setting. Sink into the lounge with a cup of cardamom-spiced coffee and an assortment of hookah flavors meant to be savored slowly.

From hand-rolled falafel and creamy hummus to warm pita and specialty coffees, every plate is made to be shared. Whether you are catching up with friends or unwinding after a long day, we have saved you a seat.

Our recipes carry the flavors of the Levant — the coffee our grandparents brewed, the mezze that crowds a table, the unhurried ritual of shisha among friends. We're proud to bring that warmth to Inman Square and save you a seat at it.
