Yafa Bakery & Café

"Had a delightful solo breakfast at this lovely spot. The variety was impressive, everything tasted incredibly fresh and authentic. You can sense the Arab hospitality the moment you walk in; they greet you with samples of baklava and tea. The young man at the counter went above and beyond to ensure I had a wonderful experience. I picked up a gorgeous box of baklava to share later at a gathering. Definitely worth visiting!"

"I absolutely loved this bakery and cafe! Their pastries and sweets are not only authentic and artistic but also incredibly delicious. We felt very welcomed, and the service exceeded our expectations. The staff were exceptionally thoughtful, even gifting us baklavas and hummus to complement our selection."

"Yafa is an absolute must for people living or visiting Boston. The food is authentic middle eastern pastries, breads, and desserts. The service and hospitality is top notch with providing information and recommendations on what to buy, and occasional free samples. Easily one of the best places I’ve been since living in Boston. Make sure you get their chai and any of their baklava. My favorite was their walnut baklava."

"It’s so difficult to pick just one treat so we got a whole box! They gave us a chai sample while we studied the case of sweets and savouries and we declared it was the best chai we’ve ever had so we ordered drinks. I love pistachios so we selected several items with pistachios. The flavors are surprising and delicious. Hard to describe as I had no point of reference. We will definitely return to try more of their offerings."
