Our Story

At Shir Chai, every cup of tea tells a story—rooted in tradition, family, and the deep desire to bring people together. Our cafe is more than just a place to eat; it’s a space where culture, flavor, and community meet.
The story of chai, for me, started with curiosity—not consumption. I’ve never been a chai drinker myself, but I’ve always been fascinated by it. The aroma, the process, the way it brings people together—it felt like a story worth telling. It wasn’t until I visited Afghanistan that I really saw what chai meant to a culture. It wasn’t just a beverage—it was hospitality, history, and heart in every cup. That’s when I knew: I wanted to craft something that honored that legacy, even if I wasn’t sipping it myself.

Come sip, savor, and stay a while.
