Since 1996 Kefa Cafe has occupied a wonderful 1928 structure located at 963 Bonifant Street. This organic coffee/tea and sandwich business has become a beloved neighborhood institution, offering not only drink and food but art displayed in the connected “Space 7:10” gallery, named for the clock on the wall perpetually stopped at 7:10. Owned and operated by (L-R) sisters Lene and Abeba Tsegaye, the below photograph of them will appear in my new book, Downtown Silver Spring.
Please vote for them!

Lene and Abe have not only provided a neighborhood gathering place, they have become friends who have watched our kids grow up, listened to our life's ups and downs, celebrated with us and lent us a shoulder to cry on. Kefa Cafe has added to the quality of the lives of all their grateful patrons.
