EOY 2025
For nearly three decades, 5335 Penn Ave was home to BFG Café—a beloved neighborhood restaurant serving the communities. Founded by John, who poured his heart into creating a welcoming, casual eatery, BFG Café became a staple known for its great food at affordable prices.
Whether you knew it as "Bloomfield, Friendship, Garfield" or by John’s own playful take, "Big Fat Greek," the café held a special place in the hearts of many.
After BFG Café closed in late 2023, the building changed ownership in mid-2024. The new owner, a former resident of the neighborhood (200 block of S. Evaline & S. Pacific) and a frequent BFG diner, has a vision to revitalize the space while honoring its legacy.
The building is being transformed into a vibrant mixed-use space, featuring four commercial storefronts on the ground floor, modern boutique apartments above, and eight dedicated parking spaces in the rear for tenants.
With BFG’s closure, we know the neighborhood needs more affordable, quality food options. Our goal is to carefully curate the ground-floor businesses to bring in great vibes and serve the community’s needs.
You’ll be in great company—right next to heavy lifts, fresh bakes, and zero-proof sips.
🚫 No vape shops. ✅ Good vibes only.
