SOFRA is a Turkish word that means a picnic, a special table preparation of food or a small square kilim rug for eating.

Sofra Bakery is the second location created by the Oleana Restaurant Group, and was established in 2008 by Executive Chef Ana Sortun, together with business partner & Executive Pastry Chef, Maura Kilpatrick. While traveling in Turkey, still deciding on the name for the bakery, Ana and Maura would ask the locals what the word Sofra meant to them. They were amazed at how the word instantly brought a smile to people s faces.
