בא לך לשתות קפה בבית הקפה ליד המשרד?

Yes — literally, בא לך is something like comes to you, from the verb לבוא (to come).

But as an idiomatic expression, בא לך... means:

• Do you feel like... ?
• Do you want to... ?
• Are you in the mood to... ?

So:

• בא לך לשתות קפה? = Do you feel like drinking coffee?

It is a very common, everyday, informal Hebrew expression.

Because in this expression, בא is usually treated as a fixed impersonal form in everyday Hebrew.

Even though בא is grammatically the masculine singular form of to come, in בא לך / בא לי / בא לו it works more like an idiom:

• בא לי = I feel like / I want
• בא לך = you feel like / you want
• בא לו = he feels like / he wants

So learners should usually memorize בא + pronoun as a set phrase rather than trying to analyze it too literally.

It is informal and very common in speech.

It sounds natural with friends, coworkers you know well, family, and casual conversation.

If you want something more neutral or formal, Hebrew often uses forms based on רוצה (want), for example:

• אתה רוצה לשתות קפה? = Do you want to drink coffee?
• את רוצה לשתות קפה? = Do you want to drink coffee? (to a woman)

But בא לך often feels a bit softer and more like feel like than plain want.

In unpointed Hebrew spelling, לך can represent both:

• לְךָ = lecha = to you (masculine singular)
• לָךְ = lach = to you (feminine singular)

So in normal writing, בא לך could mean:

• Do you feel like... ? to a man
• Do you feel like... ? to a woman

You usually know from context, or from who is being addressed.

The ל before לשתות marks the infinitive, like to in English:

• לשתות = to drink

So:

• בא לך לשתות קפה? literally = Does it come to you to drink coffee? naturally = Do you feel like drinking coffee?

This ל is extremely common in Hebrew infinitives:

• לאכול = to eat
• ללכת = to go/walk
• לראות = to see
• לשתות = to drink

Because Hebrew does not use a helper verb like English do to form yes/no questions.

English:

• Do you want coffee?

Hebrew:

• אתה רוצה קפה?
• בא לך קפה?

A sentence can become a question mainly through:

• intonation in speech
• a question mark in writing
• context

So בא לך לשתות קפה בבית הקפה ליד המשרד? is understood as a question without needing a separate word for do.

Because ב means in / at.

• בית הקפה = the café
• בבית הקפה = in the café / at the café

So the sentence is asking about drinking coffee at the café, not just mentioning the café as a subject.

Also, when ב is added to a definite noun, it often combines smoothly with it in writing:

• ב + בית הקפה → בבית הקפה

בית קפה is the standard Hebrew expression for café / coffee shop.

Literally, it is made of:

• בית = house
• קפה = coffee

So literally it is something like coffee house.

When it is definite, it becomes:

• בית קפה = a café
• בית הקפה = the café

This is a normal Hebrew noun pattern and does not sound strange to native speakers.

That is because בית הקפה is a construct phrase.

In Hebrew construct phrases, the first noun is linked to the second noun, and definiteness is usually shown on the second noun:

• בית קפה = a café
• בית הקפה = the café

Even though the ה is only attached to קפה, the whole phrase becomes definite.

This is a very common Hebrew structure.

Because את marks a definite direct object, and קפה here is indefinite.

Compare:

• לשתות קפה = to drink coffee
• לשתות את הקפה = to drink the coffee

In your sentence, it means coffee in a general sense, not a specific already-known coffee, so there is no את.

ליד means:

• near
• next to
• by

So:

• ליד המשרד = near the office / next to the office

Breaking it down:

• ליד = near / next to
• המשרד = the office

So בית הקפה ליד המשרד means the café near the office.

In this sentence, at the café is usually the most natural English translation.

Hebrew ב can cover both in and at, depending on context.

So:

• לשתות קפה בבית הקפה
  can literally be drink coffee in the café but naturally in English is often drink coffee at the café

Both ideas are possible; at the café usually sounds better in English here.

Yes, Hebrew word order is somewhat flexible, but this order is very natural:

• בא לך לשתות קפה בבית הקפה ליד המשרד?

It goes:

1. בא לך = do you feel like
2. לשתות = to drink
3. קפה = coffee
4. בבית הקפה ליד המשרד = at the café near the office

This is a smooth, normal order in spoken Hebrew.

You can sometimes move parts around for emphasis, but the given version is the most neutral and natural.

It literally means to drink coffee, but in many contexts it functions much like English to have coffee.

So in natural English, you might translate the whole sentence as:

• Do you feel like having coffee at the café near the office?
• Do you want to grab a coffee at the café near the office?

The Hebrew itself still uses the ordinary verb to drink.

The main change would be the pronoun after בא:

• בא לך = to one person
• בא לכם = to a group of men / mixed group
• בא לכן = to a group of women

So you could say:

• בא לכם לשתות קפה בבית הקפה ליד המשרד?
  = Do you all feel like drinking coffee at the café near the office?

Notice that בא often stays in that same fixed form in this expression.

It is natural Hebrew.

A native speaker might also shorten it depending on context, for example:

• בא לך קפה? = Want coffee?
• בא לך לשתות קפה? = Feel like having coffee?
• בא לך קפה בבית הקפה ליד המשרד? = Want coffee at the café near the office?

But your full sentence sounds completely normal and clear. It is especially natural when the speaker is making a specific suggestion.
