Yousif Albadri has leased the long vacant space at the corner of Congress and High Streets where he plans to open the Y%F (instagram), an 80+ seat cafe. Albadri has begun building out the 2,200 sq ft space and hopes to open Y%F by the end of November.
The cafe will have their own in-house coffee roasting operation. In addition to the standard line-up of drip and espresso-based drinks, they’ll be serving some specialty hot and cold drinks like Spanish lattes, pistachio lattes and Turkish coffee. Albardi also plans to have teas and a variety of nonalcoholic mojitos on the menu. Their in-house bakery will make a wide range of cakes and sweet treats, and breakfast sandwiches will be available in the mornings.
