This centrally located cafe at 19 Paoli Plaza radiates warmth with its cozy decor and welcoming atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for anyone seeking culinary delights and a comforting dining experience.

The menu features an array of mouthwatering dishes that will tantalize your taste buds. Start your journey with the Luleh Kebab—perfectly seasoned beef kebabs served in packs of eight, each bite bursting with flavor. Complement your meal with the Baklava A La Mode, a heavenly combination of flaky layered pastry, nuts, and a drizzle of vanilla ice cream and simple syrup that takes indulgence to a whole new level. If you’re in the mood for something lighter, try one of the stunning Mediterranean bowls, like the Yerevan Bowl, which combines fresh salad greens with luleh protein and topped with zesty pickled turnips and hummus.

Cafe POM is not just about food; it’s about creating a nourishing and hospitable experience. Customers rave about the friendly staff, with many noting that the owners treat patrons like family, ensuring every culinary need is met. Regulars like Gale Zorian highlight how the owner’s attention to detail—concern for plating and reheating—makes takeout feel like a thoughtful family meal.

In addition to savory dishes, their pastry selection is irresistible. The Gata, a mildly sweet Armenian pastry, beckons dessert lovers with its buttery goodness, while the sugar-rich Ghurabia cookies leave a delightful sweetness that lingers on the palate. A truly delightful treat is the layered Baklava, a classic favorite that has earned rave reviews for its rich layers and sweet syrup.

The ambiance at Cafe POM is as refreshing as the food. Decorated to evoke a sense of charm and comfort, it is the perfect escape for those looking to unwind with friends or enjoy a quiet moment alone. Larissa T spoke fondly of her experience, describing the café as "cozy and welcoming" with deliciously presented cuisine that captivates the senses.

Delicious food, pretty atmosphere and great staff! Everyone is so friendly. The Luleh and Baklava are my absolute favorite. Reminds of my grandma's cooking. Highly recommend for a great lunch spot!

Unfortunately, I live far from the restaurant. So I am not able to go very often. On special occasions, I typically place a large order for take out and pick up to dine back home. The owner always calls back and is concerned about every detail! She asks "plating" requests - do I want it preheated, warmed or cold to place in the oven (all with instructions)... Just like a dear Auntie would. I just love going there and chatting with them. Everyone is so welcoming... this restaurant is a real treasure. Thank you.

Absolutely delicious food. they specialize in Armenian and Mediterranean cuisine. in the market I bought wonderful choreg which are an Armenian style brioche roll. wonderful especially when warmed up. I go purchased apricot candies, and dried fruit leathers which were all was tasty as they looked. the cafe has a warmth and elegant decor which is great to enjoy and relax with friends. My lunch was a pick your own style warm bowl with fine black lentils, greens, luleh kabobs-tender Armenian beef , tourshi -Armenian pickled veggies, chick peas and bsba ghanoush - eggplant with tahini spread. I intended to save done for my husband to try but I finished it. It was too good to save. I'll buy him his own. I brought home lahmajun - an Armenian style flatbread meat pizza and a cheese boreg - Armenian version of a phyllo layered cheese pie. The food here is clearly made with love and without junk and preservatives. . I'm sure you will love everything you try.

Very unique place. Good food but they were out of dressing and we weren't told. Coffee grinds weren't mixed.
