Dar Dessert Lounge, a dessert lounge in Whitechapel
Dar Dessert Lounge is an example of a shofa.social partner cafe, drawn to show what a cafe page looks like. At a real partner cafe, staff will take your photos at the till and you'll check in at the counter. If you and someone in the cafe both wave, you'll meet at its shofa table.

- Ask at the till for a shofa.social photoshoot and pay the cafe's price.
- Bring a photo ID so staff can confirm you're 18 or over. They won't photograph or keep it.
- Staff will take your photos against the rose plaster wall and give you an invite to scan with your phone.
- Sign in with your mobile number and a texted code. Choose up to 4 photos, each marked Taken at Dar Dessert Lounge.
