K’far is about to change your life. This cafe is unbelievable for so many reasons that I can’t wait to get into. I went here 2 days in a row, got the exact same meal, and both times was as equally amazed, let me tell you why. K’Far provides a very unique menu, that is carefully thought out, not overly complicated and executed to perfection. It’s the only place that I’ve been to for brunch that i can say NAILED all categories. The coffee is insanely flavorful, the drip and iced coffees are packed with flavor, ZERO burnt aftertaste and so robust. The pistachio sticky bun is EASILY the best pastry I have had all year. There’s literally nothing like it anywhere and it’s served warm with a soft, but crunchy texture, not overly sweet at all and it’s honestly life changing. Then the entrees, and I gotta say thank you for ruining any other bagel I’ve ever had. The Jerusalem bagel egg sandwich is a blast of flavor. The crisp, not overly bready or salty bagel is so good and even though it looks simple, there’s nothing like it. The classic Philly Coopers sharp, soft egg and crunchy bagel are a match made in heaven. I suggest just adding the avocado on the side as the only modification. The Arabic salad is packed with flavor, with a subtle but delicious lemony sauce and earthy Za’taar make for a match made in heaven. I am also blown away by their consistency. I honestly came two days in a row, ordered the exact same items and they tasted the exact same on both days. That’s a very difficult thing to do. All of this is brought together by the beautiful interior, attentive service from their knowledgeable staff, and also the comfort of their reasonable prices. I’ll be dreaming of that Jerusalem bagel and can’t wait to come back to Philly to come back to K’far. This spot was way better than some of the popular places that get all the attention which in all honesty fell short of expectations for me. Don’t doubt it, come to K’far and see for yourself. This place does things so

Wanted something different today. Stopped in. Small but cozy cafe. Table seating as well as elevated seating. They also have outdoor seating. Really nice clean establishment! I ordered the grilled cheese sandwich. Was good. Made a little different, but good. Also had the PitashioC Cinnamon Roll. Delicious slightly warmed up! You can see staff making the dishes.

The pistachio sticky bun is a must! I also really love the Jerusalem bagels, which can be anything from a "classic" bagel with cream cheese, to more of a pull-apart flatbread you dip in labneh or cheese, to a full-on panini-like sandwich, depending on the variation you order. This is a great spot to stop by for a quick coffee or for a full lunch date :)

Lovely cafe with delicious food and great service. Anxious to return tomorrow morning to try more items. We had the Yemenite latte, KUBANEH Toast with brown sugar ricotta & spiced apricot syrup, and the Jerusalem bagel egg & cheese sandwich today.

Absolutely phenomenal. Devoured too fast to capture any other photos! We had the avocado toast, the artichoke boreka, a bagel with butter, and the pistachio sticky bun. All were 10/10 easily. So good we had to get a boreka trio to go for some friends we’re seeing later, AND a cookbook for ourselves. Definitely don’t miss out on this jem!

Tried a few items here. The Tunisia tuna was okay, but the taste was a little bland. On the other hand, the grilled cheese and the vegan avocado were awesome—especially with their house-made bread. The pastry was also very good. Overall, a good experience and worth checking out

Wish I lived in Philly, specifically across the street so that i can drop by anytime. First time trying Jerusalem bagels and they were divine. The sticky buns were amazing as well as the rugelach. Actually everything is wonderful. Must visit if visiting Philly. A little bit of a wait to get seated but there is plenty of seating so the wait was pretty quick. Even if the wait was an hour it will be well worth the wait.

The Bagel Sandwich is big. Don’t worry about potion size 😉 It’s perfect. Staff was super friendly when I visited. I had the egg and cheese sandwich. It’s a little spicy 🌶️ but I like the heat. Would definitely order it again. Coffe was good. The blondie pastry I got was good ! The only grief I had was I was next to the door and there is a lot of foot traffic coming in and out. Which is great for the company but not for the customer. Kept getting blasted with the cold air from outside. Ask for a table in the back or away from the door 🚪

Great stopping in here on a freezing cold day. We got seated right away at the counter which has very cozy seating! We just had coffees, bagels and an apple-cranberry tart. All were great, enjoyed the Jerusalem style bagels and the scallion cream cheese was very good. Wish this was local to me, so many other items on the menu I wanted to try. Looking forward to a future visit!

A Delightful Morning at K'Far Cafe Philly I recently stopped by K'Far Cafe in Rittenhouse for a morning bite, and it was absolutely delightful. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by how inviting the space is. The pastel interior, with its bright, airy feel, creates such a warm and cheerful atmosphere. I ordered the famous Egg and Cheese Jerusalem Bagel, and it did not disappoint. The egg was unbelievably fluffy, like a pillow, and combined with the melty cheese, it created the most perfect, soft texture in every bite. But the real star was the delightful, peppery aftertaste left by the schug. It added an incredible layer of flavor that lingered just long enough to make each bite exciting. To wash it down, I tried one of their signature coffee drinks, which was perfectly rich and well-balanced. If you're looking for a gorgeous cafe with food that has complex and memorable flavors, K'Far is an absolute must-visit in Philly.
