K'far - Philadelphia

I went to K?Far to get a pistachio sticky bun after a stellar recommendation. Take out is slow but very attentive. Not everyone item is on display so make sure you read the menu. The pistachio sticky bun was very fresh and tasty. I?ll go back to try a Jerusalem bagel.

Food 9/10 A very solid and unique jerusalem bagel, just what I was craving. Really liked their oat milk latte as well. Will be back for pastries next! Atmosphere 10/10 Super cute and clean interior, nicely maintained bathroom, free Target wifi right next door. I stayed throughout the morning and got quite a lot of work done. Service 9/10 Super smooth online orderings system and really friendly staff when I had questions about some things.

The music was quite loud for the space, but I learned that the radio was malfunctioning that day, so it's not a major issue. The food itself was absolutely delicious! I ordered the Single Chocolate Babka, which was out of this world—it tasted like a chocolate croissant, but even better. I also tried the Tunisian Salad, which was incredibly flavorful! Each component—seared tuna, hard-boiled egg, fingerling potatoes, olives, and lettuce—came together beautifully. My grandmother had the Gluten-Free Walnut Cake, which was sweet and had a lovely texture. It's a perfect choice for nut lovers! Check out the amazing pictures I took! I would definitely stop by again for a quick bite before work or a meeting!

You have to try the ricotta toast (or any of their toasts)! The bread they use is highly hydrated, giving it a wonderful texture. They also toast it with butter, making the outside perfectly crunchy. The pistachio bun has a nice pistachio flavor, but I wasn't a fan of the dough's texture—it's a bit dry and more cakey than chewy. On the other hand, the walnut cake surpassed my expectations with its incredibly crunchy crust and rich, toasted walnut flavor; I just wish it weren't quite so sweet. The tehina chocolate chip cookie was pretty average, offering only a light nutty flavor.

This place offers some of the best pastries and brunch dishes you'll find in the city or even within a 200-mile radius. The food is incredibly delicious, and the high-quality ingredients are evident in every bite! I highly recommend trying all the pastries, especially the boreka.
