Handcrafted coffee, artisan ice cream, and Levantine sweets rooted in Syrian, Lebanese, and Palestinian tradition, right on Getty Ave.
Damasco Café earns a 4.7-star rating from over 400 guests, and the reviews say the same thing again and again: the people here make it. Anwar, Samira, Malak, and the rest of the team treat every visitor like a regular from the first hello, whether you came for a quiet hour of work, a late-night sweet, or something you've never tried before.
The café draws on Syrian, Lebanese, Palestinian, Jordanian, and Turkish culinary heritage to create a space that feels genuinely different from anything else in North Jersey. Damasco Café is the exclusive North Jersey vendor for Pâtisserie Mahrouse pastries, meaning you can find things here that simply don't exist anywhere else nearby. The ambiance is calm and unhurried, the kind of place where a stranger can walk in off Getty Ave and immediately feel at home.
This is a cultural hub as much as it is a café. Every drink brewed, every scoop served, every sweet wrapped to go carries a connection to a culinary tradition that spans generations. Clifton is lucky to have it.
Specialty coffee is the foundation: Turkish coffee prepared in the traditional style, a full range of espresso drinks, and specialty blends that reward the curious. If you've never had a particular preparation before, the staff will walk you through it without making you feel like you should have known.
Beyond the cup, handcrafted ice cream is made in-house and served generously. Traditional Middle Eastern sweets and pastries, including the exclusive Pâtisserie Mahrouse selection, round out a menu rooted in authentic Levantine recipes. Boutique retail of Levantine-inspired goods gives you something to bring home, and full catering services are available for events when you want to share this experience with a crowd.
Damasco Café is open seven days a week, with late-night hours on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, making it one of the few spots in the area where the evening doesn't have to end early.
