Waukesha Cafe House

Waukesha Cafe House is a family-owned café located at 410 Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Waukesha, Wisconsin, founded by Afghan immigrants Mojib and Narmin Rasuli, who purchased a vacant building in 2018 and spent nearly five years renovating it before opening in 2023. The café serves espresso and coffee drinks, breakfast and lunch all day, along with salads, sandwiches, and homemade pastries — with a menu described as multicultural in its inspiration. Rooted in the American Dream, the Rasulis have built Waukesha Cafe House into a welcoming community gathering place, drawing loyal patrons with their hands-on hospitality and commitment to quality, ethically sourced ingredients.
