Open since April, the cafe has been housed in a large forest green-coloured tent. Inside, migrants and aid workers sip tea and coffee, and eat succulent-looking traditional Pakistani dishes, including beans soaked in a spicy sauce and saffron rice.
"Our menu is limited today. We are hours from closing down," said Soheil, its 33-year-old owner, who did not reveal his last name for security reasons.
When Soheil arrived in the Jungle on April 7, he was "shocked" by the state of the camp, which migrants have used as a launchpad for dangerous attempts to reach Britain.
"I decided the only way forward was to set up this cafe. I go to work the very next day," said the former sales executive, who spent several years in Dubai and speaks good English.
It took Soheil two weeks to build the Khyber Pass Cafe, named after his native region, which borders Afghanistan.
Its flimsy walls are covered in silver and gold paper, with flags of Egypt, Sudan and Syria pinned up, as a welcoming gesture to guests from all over the world.
In some ways it serves as a symbol for the community spirit some see in the Jungle.
In Pakistan, Soheil was an influential member of his tribe. But after an assassination attempt by the Taliban last year, it was the elders of his own tribe who advised him to flee, he says.
Asked whether he dreams of returning to Pakistan, he says his "priorities have changed now. I used to put my tribe first."
Now, he plans to keep his cafe open for at the most another day, and to evacuate by Wednesday.
"My dream is to end up somewhere in Brittany. I have never been, but I have seen pictures, and it is beautiful. I want to open a restaurant, a proper one this time, and I want to help others who are less fortunate," he says, sitting back on a green couch.
"I will also call the new restaurant Khyber, just like this one."
