Thank you for an incredible year at Diaspora Cafe! The cafe is closing for now due to challenges with our yaupon espresso sourcing. We will continue to serve all of our beverages at markets and events until the end of September. For the next step in our journey, we are relocating to Austin TX where the yaupon industry and community is centered.

We’re deeply grateful to our team, our customers and our community at large. Your support made Diaspora Cafe a sustainable and impactful business, serving tens of thousands of friends and customers, and donating almost 3,000 meals to our unhoused neighbors and to the Labateyah Youth Home in Ballard.
