We think our coffee is better than the major coffee store chain and it is less expensive too. Better coffee, lower price and right here in the School of Public Health. 

Ask us for the “Coffee Club” punch card on your next visit. When you buy 20 cups of coffee, we will give you a YAPA coffee mug, FREE. Then when you buy your next cup of coffee, use your YAPA mug and we will discount 20 cents on every YAPA mug of coffee you buy here in the YAPA Café. Not only will you be saving money, but you will also help us all be more environmentally sensitive by using less paper and plastic cups.

Q: What is the YAPA Café LUNCH CLUB?
A: Everyone is on a lunch budget, so we offer a sandwich lunch deal everyday. Our sandwiches are made on honey whole wheat bread. We make our own grilled chicken salad, we roast our own turkey breast, we use less mayonnaise, we make our own mustard, we use Boar’s Head Deli Meats, our vegetarian sandwich is full of garden vegetables and our homemade basil pesto. We are proud of these tasty highest quality sandwich fixings. Do you need a special sandwich?  No spreads, no cheese, no problem. Just tell us what you need today and we’ll make it any way you want it for tomorrow at lunch. Now that’s service, your way.

Ask us for the “Lunch Club” punch card on your next visit. A Lunch Club lunch is any whole sandwich, any “lunch club” bag of chips and a Dr. Brown’s soda. We punch the card every time you purchase a Lunch Club lunch. Punch the card 10 times and your next Lunch Club lunch is Free!  That can help everyone’s lunch budget! 

Is a whole sandwich too much for you to eat? We offer half sandwiches of all your favorite kinds. Can’t decide which sandwich to eat? Try a half of two different sandwiches all for the price of a whole sandwich. How good is that? Lunch doesn’t have to be boring any more.
