A Persian-inspired cafe situated in Castro Valley with a poetic touch, offering specialty coffees, teas, and Middle Eastern desserts in an artistic setting.
The gyros are delicious and so are the lattes. They offer gluten free wraps and thus opened up gyros for me again! The chicken is the meat that is gluten free. they were kind enough to tell me without my asking. Caring staff, great food! Will come again.
I was passing through from the Bay Area and needed a place to kill some time due to terrible traffic conditions. The service I received was truly top notch. The atmosphere was nice and calm. The food was absolutely fantastic. The morrocon Tea was the best thing I’ve had since I was 10 at my grandparents house!!
Nice little cafe in Castro valley , had the famous pink tea. The tea tested excellent but just a bit too sweet. The saffron chicken platter was excellent and same was the veggie platter
One of the most unique spots around!
This cafe has a great vibe — not traditionally cozy, but definitely full of energy and personality. The atmosphere is very vibe-y in the best way. The staff genuinely try their best to deliver great service, and that effort shows. What really makes this place stand out is the crowd — such an interesting mix of people, full of character and charm.
I used to travel a long way to come here, and now that I live nearby, I’m really happy I can just walk over. My go-to order is a cup of latte and a salmon bagel — my favorite comfort combo.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for something real, welcoming, and just a bit different from the usual.
