We’re building more than a coffee shop or a deli; we’re building a bridge. It’s where that old-world warmth of the caravanserai finds a home in our modern city, serving as a safe, welcoming Lincoln Park cafeteria for students and remote workers right here on the North Side.




Your From the functional, comfortable design of our space to the friendly service at the front counter, we value doing things right, staying comfortable, and telling a good story. Our combined experience makes sure that every single visitor to our communit gathering space feels genuinely welcome and maybe even a little inspired.

Here at Serai Café, we're keeping a real old tradition alive right here in Lincoln Park, Chicago. See, our whole concept is inspired by the ancient caravanserais—those super welcoming rest stops they had way back on the Silk Road. Those places were always buzzing with talk, business, and folks swapping stories. More than just a place to grab a bite, they were a community hub.
