✨ Meet the women behind Eldar: Elham & Darya ✨
We’re two women from different generations, brought together by a shared dream: To create a warm, welcoming space in Thunder Bay — a café where people can connect, relax, and experience the authentic taste and spirit of Iranian culture.
As the proud owners of Eldar, every corner of this place has been built with love, memories, and a deep passion for what we do.
From traditional Persian tea to homemade Iranian dishes, our goal is to bring a piece of home to your table — no matter where you’re from.
Eldar isn’t just a cafe. It’s a story of friendship, culture, and a fresh beginning — rooted in tradition, and open to everyone.
We can’t wait to welcome you. There’s always a seat waiting for you at Eldar 🫖💛🇮🇷
