Qahwah House is a true hidden gem and one of the most unique coffee experiences I’ve had. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the warm aroma of freshly ground coffee beans and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile.
What sets Qahwah House apart from your average coffee shop is its dedication to authentic Yemeni coffee culture. You won’t find just your standard espresso drinks here—this place offers an incredible variety of traditional Yemeni brews, such as the qishr and mofawar, made with spices like ginger and cardamom that add a rich, aromatic depth you won’t find anywhere else.
I tried the Mofawar, a smooth and slightly sweet coffee brewed with milk and cardamom—it was incredibly flavorful and comforting. I also paired it with one of their traditional pastries, the Sabaya, a flaky layered dessert drizzled with honey. Absolutely delicious!
The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They took the time to explain the different types of Yemeni coffee, the brewing process, and even shared a bit of the cultural background behind some of the drinks. You can really feel the care and authenticity in everything they serve.
The interior is beautifully designed—elegant but homey, with traditional art and decor that reflects the rich heritage of Yemen. It’s a perfect spot whether you’re meeting a friend, working on your laptop, or just enjoying a quiet moment with a cup of something special.
Prices are very reasonable considering the quality and the experience. And the best part? Everything is brewed fresh, with beans imported directly from Yemen, supporting local farmers and ensuring authenticity.
If you’re a coffee lover—or just someone looking for a unique cultural experience—Qahwah House is a must-visit. It’s more than just coffee; it’s a warm, flavorful journey
