About Event

Step into Funkaari Coffee House, a pop-up café and crafting space imagining what our café culture might have grown into if migration, partition, and distance hadn’t reshaped our relationships to home.

For one afternoon, Funkaari Coffee House brings that possibility to life. Aa jao — sip chai or coffee, enjoy our curated café menu, play some carrom, make art, and connect with others.

This is not your regular slow Sunday. We can't wait to welcome you in.

And if you want to go beyond simply enjoying the space — if you want to create within it — we invite you to join our signature experience:

Embossing (Chatrai) Workshop — Led by
2 PM, $40 (limited seats)

Lahore Heritage Club will lead their signature workshop on chatrai, the meditative craft of shaping soft, gold-toned metal into motifs that echo centuries of South Asian artistry. Every press of your tool reveals a line, a curve, a story — one that becomes uniquely yours.

You’ll leave not only with a finished embossed piece to take home, but with the rare experience of slowing down, working with your hands, and connecting to a craft rooted in heritage. Chai, coffee, and café bites will flow throughout as you settle into the rhythm of making inside Funkaari Coffee House.
