Be prepared for the long lines for either take out or dine in. We decided to dine in and was quoted a one hour wait. It turned out to be slightly less. We ordered a variety of items. Loved the pistachio bun and frankly any of the pastries are superb. The quinoa and kale salad was tasty and from a presentation standpoint very colorful. The tuna salad also fresh and well presented. Just a few pieces of tuna, as you would expect, not a lot , but hit the spot. The interior is bright. Be aware that there is only a single restroom, which is gender neutral. At times there is a long wait. Service is attentive, but not necessarily friendly. read more

Came to this cafe during a bakery crawl a few weeks ago. All of their food is AMAZING! Would strongly recommend their pistachio sticky buns, feta-scallion boreka, and sour cherry turnover. Customer service was immaculate and decoration was elegant and cute all the way down to their plates. read more

We stopped by here for a quick morning bite. The assortment of pastries were out of this world. The flavors were fabulous. Service was fantastic, , gracious and kept us on time as we were in a little rush. Thank you for a great start for our morning. read more

K'far Cafe lives up to the hype and great reviews. I ate there two days in a row during my recent visit to Philly. First time, I walked in on a weekday morning around 10am and there was no line - I was immediately seated. It's such a cute cafe you'll want to sit down for a bit, soak in the vibes, and enjoy your food and beverage instead of rushing out with your take-out order. I got their signature egg and cheese bagel while my friend got the bagel with labneh trio. We loved their bagels - chewy, rich, and covered generously in sesame seeds. The egg and cheese bagel was definitely our favorite - I am still fondly recalling that breakfast sandwich as I write this review. The egg had an almost custard like consistency and the creamy cheese created a perfect symphony with it in every bite. My friend actually visited K'far again the following day just to get their egg and cheese bagel. The labneh trio was good but too much of cheese for our liking and we couldn't finish the dish. We also tried the pistachio bun and while it was nice, it was a tad too sweet for me. The next day, I tried their shakshuka boreka and it has to be one of the best breakfast items I've tasted in a while. Think of a giant buttery puff pastry topped with shakshuka style tomatoes and egg - it was perfection in every bite. The cafe is definitely a little pricey, but seems worthwhile for occasional treats, especially considering the beautiful interiors and the quality of the food here. read more

I've been seeing K'Far all over my tiktok so decided to visit last Sunday. There are two lines outside, dine in and take out. Make sure you're in the right line so you're not waiting a long time. I opted for take out which moved pretty quickly. I waited about 10 min around 12 pm on Sunday. The ambiance on the inside is very nice and I liked how they displayed the pastries. I ended up getting the cheese and egg bagel, latte, pistachio sticky bun, and brown sugar cookie. It came out to about $24 which isn't bad. The latte wasn't great, too watery and not strong enough for my taste. The egg and cheese bagel was one of the better items. It was hot and the egg and cheese were still melting. The sticky bun and cookie were kind of cold and hard. After warming it up at home, I found both pastries to be too sweet for my liking. I'm glad I tried it out, but most likely won't be back. read more

I struggle with spending more than $5 on a dessert, but K'Far was totally worth it! I am excited to go back and try some of the other food, as well as get another pistachio sticky bun-- it was absolutely incredible! read more

I have now been to K'Far a number of time and it's my go-to place to take anyone who visits for brunch! I love the interior and the gold lights. There are plenty of veg options. The grilled cheese is delicious especially since I don't like the egg and cheese (it has cooper sharp cheese and I do not like American cheese). The ricotta kubaneh toast is on a tangy sourdough bread and is not too sweet. Avocado toast is good too. The borekas are a bit oily for me. Pastries are all phenomenal from the tehina blondie to the walnut babka, chocolate rugelach, to of course the divine pistachio sticky bun. Yemenite latte is flavorful with the spices. Ambiance and service is wonderful. No matter how many times I've been here, I always look forward to coming back! read more

I love this place. Cute inside, good baked goods and coffee, affordable prices! Both savory sandwich options and sweet (sticky bun is the best). Can get very busy on the weekends fyi read more

Loved the Jerusalem bagels! I got the smoked salmon however I think next time I will get the egg and cheese because I'm more of an egg and cheese kinda gal. It was very filling! The Yemenite latte was also delicious with spices. Took chocolate rugelach and also artichoke boreka to go. The rugelach was amazingly sweet so delicious. And the artichoke boreka was good as well. No wonder this place is packed on the weekends! read more

Really good food. Filling for sure. The ambiance is great and a cute little area to sit at on the inside. Egg and cheese sandwich was really good. Service was pretty fast. They do put some weird spices in some of the dishes and drinks but it is a middle eastern restaurant, so i would have expected it. Very good, definitely recommend. read more

Zahav does it again with his israeli bakery breakfast joint. The decorations are so cute mixing modern cafe with israeli vibes. We ended up moving outside to get a table quicker but the waittresses were very attentive to the outdoor customers. I wasn't sure what to expect for the egg and cheese jerusulem bagel but it was actually delicious. The salmon freekeh and the tunasian tuna both were jampacked with flavor and delicious. The meal was overall very clean and refreshing. read more

We went to K'Far knowing they don't take reservations, and were told the wait would be about 1.5-2 hours. We decided to shop around while we waited, and a little over an hour later they texted us that our table was ready, which was a nice surprise. They gave us the option of a regular table or high tops, and we chose a table. To start, I ordered the spiced fig and honey latte, and it was honestly one of the best coffees I've ever had. It wasn't too strong, just perfectly balanced. It had this warm, slightly nutty flavor from the cinnamon, and the honey added sweetness without being overpowering. As for the food, they were unfortunately out of quite a few things we wanted to try, which was a bit disappointing. I ended up getting the egg and cheese on a Jerusalem bagel. The bagel itself was so delicious. It was soft and fluffy on the inside with a nice crisp exterior. However, the sandwich overall threw me off. It was unexpectedly spicy, to the point where I had to remove some of it. The egg was molded into a dense, uniform shape, which I wasn't expecting and didn't love texture-wise. The cheese had an almost mayo-like consistency. It didn't taste bad, but the texture combination wasn't my favorite. I would probably order something else next time. read more

This place is cute. Very busy but we didnt wait longer than a few mins to get a table. The chai latte is very good, so was the scallion bagel and my son loved the kubaneh toast. I took a pistachio sticky bun to go because I've heard good things (I can't wait to try it!). They literally were coming out of the oven while we were there. read more

I've been a fan of K'Far for several years, but had an experience today that makes me reconsider returning. Came in late afternoon and bought a drink and food but got it in to-go containers since I was waiting on my boyfriend to be done with an appointment and needed the flexibility. I paid and took my food outside and sat down at one of the tables on their patio, which was almost entirely empty--multiple unused tables. Within about five minutes an employee came out and asked me to leave, saying the seating was for dine-in patrons only, not takeout. I guess I could understand such a policy if it was peak hours or they were busy, but as neither of those things was the case...really? Seriously? You're gonna kick a customer out of your restaurant because the food I paid for is in a to-go container rather than in a glass mug, on a patio only one other person was even using during the hot afternoon slump getting close to closing time? Just very poor customer service. read more

Long wait but the food is worth it. Service was faster than it has been in the fast. Be prepared to not have the entire menu available to you, if you go in the afternoon. The yemenite latte and Jerusalem bagels live up to the hype! read more

I love this place. Best coffee. Best pastry. Best ambiance. Every time I stop by this place, it's super packed because it's so good!! If you want their pasty, you have to come early since it sells out very quickly. The 2 other times I went there recently, all the pasties were sold out so I had to settle for their coffee which is okay since is really good!! read more

So this place opened and there was a line waiting at the door before 8am. It's super cute inside! You can eat in or get it Togo. The wait was 15-20 for Togo order and they put the wrong pastries in the bag but what they gave me was delicious haha. read more

Ambiance is great but narrow! We did takeout during the Philly half so it was a little crazy. I tried the pistachio sticky bun. The outer part was soft and delicious but as it was getting closer to the middle, it was a little less soft but more hard. Had to share it with 2-3 other people as it was dense (but expected). The coffee was good and had other savory pastries and all were delightful! read more

Great pastries and hot drinks! They have other things too but that's what I had. Their babka are amazing - full of walnuts and cinnamon and so fresh. Staff is delightful! They care about their customers and are so warm and friendly. I also like the decor. I ordered a Yemenite Latte which was delicious and something that I'd never had before. Try this place. It's a little hard to find but scoot in just before the Target store. read more

This place is clearly popular. We came by one evening and most all of the pastries were sold out, so we decided to come again the next morning. I really like the vibe and decoration of the restaurant. It's very appealing. The employees were friendly as well. We ordered take out and got a few Boreka's, a pistachio sticky bun and Marzipan Challah Danish: - The Boreka's were pretty good (tried feta scallion, potato, and artichoke). - The pistachio sticky bun was good, but mine had the shard of a pistachio shell in my first bite. That was a bit disappointing. Fortunately, it was just one piece. - The Marzipan Challah Danish was awesome. I really enjoyed that. I would get that again for sure. It was a good experience this time, but unfortunately not a great one. We would certainly come back to try again though. The Jerusalem bagels looked really good. read more

Love this place! This is my must go spot whenever I visit philly. There's always a line, but it's usually not too bad (~20 min), or you can grab it as takeout to rittenhouse. - pistachio sticky bun: as a person who doesn't like pistachio, this was delicious! The puff pastry was so crispy and the flavor was great. Every bite was pure happiness - ham n cheese bagel: the Jerusalem bagels here were flat, which I really appreciate! the dough to content ratio seems better than traditional bagels. The flavor was just amazing and the bread was exceptional. I can eat this everyday - iced black tea: delicious and refreshing! read more

Love everything about this Israeli bakery! Light, cool atmosphere, friendly service, fun upbeat music, but best of all, incredible pastries and drinks! Everything looked so good: pistachio sticky bun, the Jerusalem bagel sandwiches and Shakshuka Boreka, I got the trio of Borekas - flaky pastry filled with 1) potato, 2) artichoke, and 3) feta scallion. All delicious, but I liked the feta best. The Yemenite Latte is delicious - subtle cinnamon, ginger & cardamom syrup, but not at all too sweet. Came back for lunch with my husband and daughter - they got egg & cheese bagel, melted cheese bagel (so good), and so got the Arabic salad which was so unique and delicious - everyone loved it! Spritz was tasty, too! read more

Was visiting Philly for the weekend and decided to stop by this cafe after reading good reviews. I was not disappointed! The inside was really cool and it was packed for brunch. There was a huge line of people waiting to put their names down for a table and a slightly shorter line for takeout. We waited about 10 mins to order and another 10 to get our drinks. The service was great. Since the cafe was packed, we all had to watch out for people walking by and sitting near the register/coffee bar. I went with the oat milk latte and this pistachio roll. The latte was good but the pistachio roll was my favorite. One of the best pastries I've had in a while. 10/10 recommend. Whenever I visit Philly again I'll make sure to stop by the cafe. read more

Super nice, cute spot. First I appreciated the pricing. The pastries and coffee were all around $5 and that is truly unheard of today. I enjoyed the pistachio sticky bun and it was had a nice texture, soft on the inside but a toffee texture on the outside. The house made syrup is very pleasant and not overly sweet which paired well with the pastries. The server was nice, calm, and gave a nice recommendation. The only minor negative thing is she didn't check on me at all. It may just because she was busy and it was a Saturday morning at 8/9am. I appreciated there was a host at the door though. Another minor problem is I overheard three of the employees complaining loudly about a customer coming in. I fully understand complaining about people but do it in the back or softly where people cannot hear . I also enjoyed the seating option as well and the aesthetic of the cafe was very clean & pretty read more

Heading to Philly again from the West Coast, I was very much looking forward to coming back to breakfast at K'Far. I was surprised to see it so empty on a weekday morning but the reason soon became clear. I was promptly seated and just as promptly ignored. At least two people seemed to be available for table service but they were too occupied in chatting with each other to notice my existence. Eventually they strolled away and left the room entirely. After sitting for a while longer, I simply gave up and left. So disappointing. If this happens to you, Dear Reader, can recommend the fast friendly service and excellent food at Bluestone Lane Coffee Because my previous visits earned them some loyalty, I might try K'Far one more time when I come back to Philly for work in a few months, if this restaurant survives their staffing issues. read more

5 star because they have a damn good pistachio sticky bun. The most impressive pistachio bun I have had - cruchy caramelized bottom, sprinkle of pistachio throughout the bun and generally great texture and taste. Surprisingly not overly sweet, I love it. 8.75/10 Their babka is quite sweet, its good but not as good as the sticky bun. 7/10 The jerusalem egg bagel is quite good, with egg and cheese 7.5/10 Coffee is just ok, my cappuccino was a 6.5/10 Lovely space inside, they have take out orders separate from dine in so you can buy and leave pretty quickly. read more

Always love coming here. They're busy but always serve you on time. There's usually a wait during brunch but it's worth it (avg wait of 30min-1hr) read more

Got takeout pastries and they were delicious. The actual brunch had a huge line so I wasn't able to go.

What an adorable little spot with a creative twist on your traditional cafes! Beautifully decorated with light and warm tones and rose gold accents. Their Jerusalem bagels are amazing - the egg & cheese was my favorite! Perfectly toasted, crispy on the outside and a thick slice of egg with just the right amount of cheese. Their sea salt chocolate chip cookie was also amazing! I had their Sachlev (without an espresso shot) and it was warm, frothy, and perfectly sweetened. I also appreciated that you could order ahead for pick-up and the friendly baristas make you your drinks fresh upon arrival so your iced drinks aren't diluted and your hot drinks stay hot! read more

I recently went here with two friends for a weekend brunch and had a good experience. As we did not have a reservation, we had to wait 20 minutes for a table, but it worked out well for us. We received great service throughout our meal and our server gave us great recommendations, in addition to having good conversations. I got the Yemenite Latte, which was rich, creamy, well-spiced, and delicious. We shared the Pistachio Sticky Bun, the Egg and Cheese Jerusalem Bagel, and the Labneh Trio Jerusalem Bagel. The Pistachio Sticky Bun was the best thing we had-rich, flavorful, the right amount of sweetness, lots of pistachios, and buttery. The Egg and Cheese sandwich was solid if unremarkable. The labneh trio was disappointing; the Jerusalem bagel was dry in the middle and the labneh sauces needed a bit more flavor and creaminess. Nonetheless, I would recommend K'far Cafe for a nice, affordable brunch! read more

Got the mocha and Brown Sugar Ricotta Toast to-go. Mocha is nothing special but not bad either. Service was super quick and they were nice enough to let me sit inside even though I had ordered takeout.

It was almost closing time when I visited and they were out of their most popular pastries so I'll plan to come for breakfast next time. read more

WOW!!!! Came here for a quick breakfast and was completely blown away. We started by sharing the pistachio sticky bun which was incredible. Perfectly sweet but balanced with some crunchy pistachios for texture. Possibly one of the best pastries I've ever tried. For my meal I had their take on "bagels" with smoked salmon. This "bagel" also had cucumbers, pickled red onions, and I'm pretty sure there was some sore of seasoning in there as well well. It was perfect! The bread itself was soft yet crunchy, lox was fresh, balanced amount of cream cheese and toppings. We also tried the orange blossom latte which was just okay but I think this drink would likely be better iced. The restaurant itself isn't too big but there is some additional seating in the back. It is an elevated casual vibe, ideal for breakfast or brunch in my opinion. Our server was kind and attentive. Would highly recommend checking K'far out. Don't skip the pastries!! read more

I have always passed by this spot and today was the first time I decided to venture in to check it out...I was not disappointed, and neither should you. From the moment you walk in, I felt like I was stepping into a Tel Aviv cafe. The decor and tables were warm and welcoming, and the music was on point for a Monday morning breakfast. The staff were welcoming and attentive to our requests and needs. I personally ordered the Cinnamon sugar kubaneh toast and our group shared the brown sugar ricotta kubaneh toast. Both were excellent! We also ordered the Tehina Chicken Caesar salad which was crisp and delicious. Beverage-wise, we tried the Yemenite iced coffee, which was very refreshing. The cafe also has a take-out section for those on the go. I highly recommend this spot for the local or the visitor! read more

It was my first time here. This cafe is a cute spot nestled in Philly. There was a wait, but it went by pretty quickly after putting my name and number down. We weren't super hungry, but definitely wanted to try some things on the menu. We ordered the Tehina Chicken Caesar Salad and Avocado Kubaneh Toast. The Tehina Chicken Caesar Salad was out of this world. The bagel chips were a nice added surprise crunch that brought a lot of flavor and made this salad very unique along with the dressing! I loved it so much that I ordered another to go! The Avocado Kubaneh Toast was sweet with the Labneh and the bread was thick and fluffy. The avocado was seasoned very nicely. I will definitely be back and try more delicious bites from the menu. read more

While the decor is gorgeous and the concept seems promising, the execution and service is way off at K'Far. I have been to K'Far for takeout and dine-in service and both experiences resulted in bland, unimaginative food and really awful service. During my dine-in experience the server flat out forgot my meal and it took another 15 minutes for my avocado toast to appear. It was a cold dish so I have no idea what took 15 minutes after the initial 15 minutes I waited only to uncover that he forgot to put in my order. Way overpriced for something I could have made better at home. Nothing really unique about K'Far and I am so sad because the decor and concept could be awesome if it was well executed and the service was good. Two stars are mostly for the hot Yosemite latte I had in the winter. The iced version just is not the same. read more

Our Motto hotel desk clerk, Mo suggested the pistachio sticky bun at K'Far. OMG! This is the best, moist cinnamon bun ever! We had to go back a second morning. The coffee is also very good, and the cafe offers quite a coffee selection, including Yemen, with cinnamon and other spices--yum. I can't give five stars because of an abundance of Canola in the baked goods, not thankfully in the pistachio bun. We hope restaurants will take these industrial seed oils out of their food. They were never intended for human consumption, and are not safe. Several eateries have changed to Sustain, a non-GMO sunflower oil, which is more stable for frying, and a better choice. The service is a reserved friendliness and very efficient. read more
