About Us
From the lush mountains of Yemen to the bustling streets of Brooklyn, Yafa set out to bridge together our homelands through coffee in 2019. We’re a family-owned, small-batch roaster that pride themself on ethically sourcing and serving specialty coffee — without the gimmicks.
Built upon a culture of care, hard work, and friendliness, Yafa is proud to continue serving our community of Sunset Park for over 25 years.
