These San Francisco Bay Area Cafes Have You Set for Ramadan This Year | Eater SF

"This Yemeni coffee shop—originally from Dearborn, Michigan—expanded to Fremont and Sacramento in 2024 and often has a line out the door at night. Menu highlights include smooth coffee, adeni chai, a decadent knafeh cheesecake, an iced pistachio latte that layers espresso, milk, and sweet, nutty pistachio, and savory items like a crispy chicken fatayer. The interior features soft, archway-studded seating and a striking focal art piece of a Yemeni woman, making it suitable for solo night owls or friends gathering for a pre‑Taraweeh refuel. The Fremont location will extend hours to Sunday–Wednesday 8 a.m. to midnight and Thursday–Saturday 8 a.m. to 2 a.m." - Samia Abbasi

First visit to a Yemeni café and Qamaria set the bar high. The space is surprisingly spacious inside—bright, cozy, and buzzing with energy. Even well after dinner hours, groups of friends were still gathered around, sipping drinks and chatting away. Love that it feels like a true community spot.

1. Very tasty pistachio milk cake - contains egg - sweet. 2. Very good hot latte - must have!! 25% sugar 3. Cold qamaria latte was also good with 25% sugar 4. Mango cheese cake was okay - not very fresh that day Ambience is really vibrant - lots of people working, plenty of space very lively even at night!

Had really high expectations with the desserts. Milk cake didn’t feel fresh. One of the layers was hard. Could add a lot more milk. Tea is nice

Nice place for a specialty cup of coffee, which I truly enjoyed. Nice atmosphere with the Arabian-themed music and decor. It is located in a small mall in an industrial neighborhood of Fremont. I will looking forward to returning again for my speciality coffee. Service with great and the facilities are good.

I came by on a Sunday afternoon and this place was packed. It’s a big space with tons of seating, but still not a single spot open. I ended up grabbing the iced Qamaria latte to go. Modified it with no cold foam and less sweetness. The spices make it a unique coffee, very distinct compared to other places. Only downside is I would have to stir it now and then since it separates a bit. Also grabbed a slice of the pistachio cake, which was milky and not too sweet. Definitely coming back to try more of their pastries, considering there were plenty and they look delicious. place also had plenty of parking given a large crowd.

Yum????? ??? !!!!!! This coffee is so good! I love the variety in the menu. I wish we had this shop back home! I’d love to try all the drinks. I’ll be coming here every day for the rest of my trip. $10 for a coffee is pricy but WOW it’s very very good! Lots of seating and it was pretty noisy so I’m glad I brought my headphones.

I really wanted to love this place but it just didn't do it for me. First of all, the inside is lovely and the staff was polite and attentive. However, I believe I also experienced the dreaded sloppy stained cup. Cleanliness and aesthetics are not only important in a food establishment, it also represents the companies values and brand. Would you be happy to receive your first order with stains on the cup and lid? The design on the cup was a great design, it's a shame the stains were a distraction. As for the coffee, it was appropriately hot with a nice frothy layer and the portion for the price was fair. Except, I couldn't detect much cardamom from the Qamaria latte. It was subtle. please add more of the wonderful spice! I hope future patrons have a better experience and support this establishment.

I am new to the city, and here I am posting this!! Omg the milk cakes ❤️❤️ The cafe vibe is 💯 The way they melt in the mouth, so yum! I tried the pistachio milk cake and I was so amazed at how much well flavored is the pistachio in the cake. One cake is well portioned and sufficient for two. I am waiting to try their pistachio latte, rose milk cake and honey comb 😍

Heard about the hype and came here on a Sunday afternoon to check it out and this place had no place to sit! I waited for about 10 minutes and found a seat. Tried their ice pistachio latte drink and it was great. Place is very lively and full of life. Free WiFi and cushion seats on the back of the shop are real comfortable to just sit and relax. It was a hot day today but fortunately they have air conditioner their shop so it's nice and cool. I recommend coming here, just wish there was one in downtown Fremont closer to the inner city. Next time I'll probably stay longer and try out their hot drinks and cheesecake that people are ranting about inshallah.

I have been eyeing the pistachio milk cake and rose milk cake and decided that since we were down the road, we might as well stopped by. The cashier recommended the pistachio milk cake over the rose milk cake so I trusted him and ordered it. The milk cake was basically tres leches. The cake had a pretty strong pistachio flavor by itself but when I ate it with the frosting, the frosting overpowered the pistachio flavor. The "milk" was able to soak the bottom of the cake but left the center dried. Most bites were moist and wet, some bites were dried. Overall, the pistachio milk cake was a solid 3/5. Between this and tres leches, I would've preferred tres leches. The place was spacious and well decorated with plenty of seating. It was packed on a Saturday but there were still some empty seats available.

Got the Qamari Latte, Pistachio Milk Cake, Chicken Shawarma and Beef Fatayer. The Pistachio Milk Cake is like tres leches cake with pistachio flavored cake topped with whipped cream icing. Love this cake. It was moist with yummy pistachio flavor. There were pieces of crushed pistachios in the cake. They had a variety of milk cake and cheesecakes from cookies and cream, mango, caramel, rose, etc. The Chicken Shawarma had a mild but noticeable curry flavor. The chicken pieces were wrapped in a soft thin bread. The Beef Fatayer was a s soft flat bread folded to hold ground beef filling. The ground beef filling was more on beef flavor and very light on spices. Qamaria Latte had cinnamon and cardamom with 2 shots of espresso. Very tasty with cardamom as the main flavor. Not too sweet. Good price of &7 for the 16 oz cup. This is a busy place. All tables were occupied.

Loved this place! I should have visited this sooner, and yes, it is totally worth the hype. First of all, the place is big but it was full when I went there. There was a constant line at the checkout. But the service is quick and the staff is really sweet. Tried the popular pistachio latte (yum! 10/10 - I am not a big fan of pistachio, but this one is popular for a reason), iced Qamaria Latte (pretty good too, i would rate this 8/10). They had so many options for food as well - had the Saffron Tres Leches : so so good! not overwhelmingly sweet. I will be back here to try out more stuff. Their ambience is also so beautiful with so many Yemeni inspired art work and decor.

I've been to other locations of this chain but this is by far the nicest w the best atmosphere The Yemeni coffee was excellent as always (I went w sanaa) and we also took the Dubai choc cheesecake which was expensive (about 9$ for a smallish piece ) but very good (loved the kadaif and pistachio all over ). Very recommended !

Huge cafe that's large enough for groups to visit but good for smaller groups too. I order their pistachio latte each time I'm in the area and it never disappoints!

I finally had a chance to revisit after the crowds have died down. Though, it was a Sunday night around 9:30pm. LOL. My wife and I shared a slice of the Dubai Chocolate Cheesecake: kataifi, Pistachio, and cream cheese (4/5). Creamy, rich, and decadent. I think it was a good thing we waited to try any of the desserts. We learned to appreciate Dubai Chocolate. LOL. I can't wait to try some of their other desserts!

This place is super hyped and for good reason! The interiors are beautiful - intricately decorated and lots of open space and light. There's a lot of seating but most of it is taken early on due to how popular this cafe is. If you come in a big group, prepare to wait or you might need to go somewhere else. I tried the pistachio (green!) milk cake and a chicken wrap. The cake was super moist and the perfect amount of sweet - some might find the semi-watery texture off-putting but it didn't bother me. The chicken was cooked well but I thought the wrap could have used a little more flavor, maybe even some spice. There were a lot of sweet and savory options on display but I hear they sell out quickly (especially the pistachio cake) so grab it while you can! I'd definitely come here again for another cafe sesh and to try more items. The vibes were simply giving.

Yemeni coffee is sure to pique your interest if you're a coffee enthusiast and Qamaria has the goal to share that with you! Located in south Fremont in a relatively quiet mall near a more industrialized part of the city, Qamaria oversees the far corner of the lot and almost always has parking spots right outside their door. As you walk into the shop, you'll breathe in the many fragrances filling the spacious cafe illuminated by soft ambient light from the walls. There are quite a few tables and seats to choose from and the noise level is very low, which would be perfect for those looking to camp out to study or get a bit of work done. The giant display case up front will be the next to feast your eyes as you peruse through all the sweets vibrantly colored and topped with an abundance of nuts and cream. We came here specifically seeking out the pistachio milk cake but was pleasantly surprised to see the new fad overtaking the world, Dubai chocolate, being applied to a cheesecake. Pistachio milk cake - this pistachio flavor packed sponge cake is moist from soaking in the flavored milk. It's topped with a generous layer of whipped cream and sprinkled on top is a thin layer of crushed pistachio. The bright green color will certainly grab your attention. The cake doesn't look too big but the richness makes it plenty enough to share among two or three people, unless you're a huge sweet tooth! Dubai chocolate cheesecake - decadent cheesecake topped with a thick layer of chocolate infused with pistachio cream and sprinkled with pistachio crumbs. Although the flavors melded quite well together in your mouth, the texture and consistency wasn't what I was expecting. The classic Dubai chocolate has a bit more crunch and this cheesecake just didn't meet the mark there. Aside from the pastries and cakes, the main draw must be their coffee, however I didn't get a chance to order one this time around. It'll definitely be on the list next time I'm around here! The staff taking my order was super enthusiastic and friendly. They made the whole experience exceptional and warm; can't wait to be back! Overall, Qamaria is a coffee shop that's off the beaten path that serves delicious middle eastern inspired desserts. If you or someone you know is a pistachio "nut", you'll need to make a visit and have a taste of their pistachio milk cake. As someone who hasn't tried Yemeni coffee, this will be a cafe I'll need to come back to and give it a taste. Based on their website, the owners and founders do seem to be passionate about the craft and making it accessible to the local community. That I can certainly cheer to!

A coffee shop open after midnight is such a gem to stumble upon. Not only are they open late but the drinks are really good too. Fair warning though, Yemeni coffee can be super strong if you've never had it. The staff is also super helpful and not judgy so if you have any questions about the menu don't be scared to ask. I've always had my drinks to go but the vibe inside can be chill but can also be super loud depending on what time you go. This place is still the perfect place to get some work done during the day but at night it gets more lively with larger groups hanging out and having a good time.

Pistachio latte 4/5 - came with no expectations but this pistachio latte was pretty good! The pistachio flavor was strong but it wasn't too sweet which was good. Very milky coffee. Coffee flavor wasn't too strong either which was good for me since I don't drink coffee much. Inferior is really nice and there's lots of seating although it was pretty filled on a Saturday morning

Overall review: 4.5 Qamaria Yemeni Coffee is one of the few cafes that is open late and it is popular! I came with a friend at 9pm, left at 10pm, and there was still a long line of people waiting to get their orders taken. Service is really fast and the workers were really nice and helpful explaining what certain desserts and drinks were. Some of the milk cakes were gone from the dessert display so I assumed they ran out. When I asked, the waiters came out with new trays of milk cakes! I ordered: -Saffron milk cake (5/5): milky, creamy and sweet - reminded me very much of a tres leches! -Caramel milk cakes (5/5): milky, creamy, and strong in caramel flavor -Adeni tea (5/5): good tea flavor. You can adjust the amount of sweetness and you can order it hot/cold. The cafe is nicely decorated with bright colors and cute decor. It's located in a plaza with plenty of parking. My only knock off is that you may have to wait a bit to get a seat. Overall, would come again to try their other desserts, savory pastries, and drinks!

Got here around 1 pm on a Saturday afternoon and it was slightly busy. I ordered the chicken pie and it was $9 including tax. The workers gave me a buzzer which let me know when my order was ready and it took about 5 minutes. The chicken pie was okay; it was a bit on the doughier side and there wasn't a lot of meat in it. I also tried my friend's beef pie and same thing; it was pretty doughy and I wanted more meat. Even then, the meat in both pastries was pretty bland and definitely not worth $9. Overall, I'm glad I got to try this place but the items are overpriced for what you're getting.

I've come here several times now for late-night catch ups and study sessions. I don't mind making the freeway drive up at all--it's a fantastic space with good drinks, food, and ambiance. It's always busy at night. I think this cafe's popularity is an indicator of a desire for more late night third spaces like these that don't involve alcohol and loud music. It may be tricky to grab a seat for more than 2 people at night. Water and utensils are self-serve. They give you a buzzer to let you know when your order is ready. I've had the rose and pistachio tres leches cakes, respectively. They were both amazing! The sweetness is paired nicely with a drink like coffee or tea. I'm sure their other pastries hold up well too. The atmosphere is perfect for chatting and catching up on work. I'd love to come during the daytime and try a drink with more caffeine. I hope more Yemeni coffee shops open around the Bay.

This place is hella cracking. The parking lot is crowded, but it feels more crowded because the people parking are reckless lol. My date said she liked this place because the cheesecake was hella good. So we got refreshers and the Kafka cheesecake. It was hella good! I would come here again, seems like a chill spot to work and just read.

It's a beautiful spot to grab some coffee and desserts, and catch up with friends. My partner and I came to check this place out on a Tuesday evening, around 10 pm. This place was PACKED! It was spacious and there was so much seating but there was no space to eat our dessert so we just took it home. It was late so we didn't get any coffee but I would love to try the pistachio latte one day. We got the pistachio milk cake and the dubai cheesecake and both were really good! I preferred the cheesecake because there were many different flavors and textures, and the complexity of it made it interesting while my partner preferred the milk cake since it was really soft. I'd definitely be back for the dubai cheesecake again. However, the service was a bit weird, maybe because they were really busy that night? The cashier welcomed us and right after, he looked off into the distance the whole time he was taking our order so we were a bit confused.

Out of all the coffee places I've been to, Qamaria Yemeni is definitely one of the unique ones. It's super spacious with lots of tables to work at. Nice staff. The music (traditional covers of pop music) is at a moderate level where you're still able to concentrate or chat with friends. Nice environment for remote work to be honest. There's also bathrooms and it's clean, so that's a plus. With its sweet and savory pastries ranging from various kinds of milk cakes (saffron, pistachio, rose) to sambossa & zaatar bread, you wouldn't run out of options. LOTS of drink options (hot and cold) from a classic Americano & cortado to smoothies & traditional items -- like Mufawaar. Their coffee drinks are solid. The pistachio latte was a highlight for me with the coffee flavor being a bit more subtle than the pistachio, but still not overly sweet and easy to enjoy. I would recommend adding another espresso shot for a stronger flavor. My friend also enjoyed her Americano. I would skip out on their matcha lattes though as it is more so on the creamier side than it is on emphasizing the matcha flavor. Although, despite all these options, this place does hurt the bank. In this economy, I cannot be caught going here as often as I'd like due to their pricing. If I'm being honest, I don't think the drinks here are worth $8-$9.

Qamaria is always poppin no matter what time you visit! They serve up delicious coffee and baked goods! I always get an iced Pistachio latte. It's nearly $9 for it but it's really good. The pistachio cream is perfect sweetness and balances out the bitterness of the coffee. It is pretty sweet but once fully mixed it's good. Their desserts are unique and fragrant. Tried their Saffron cake and their Dubai chocolate cheesecake. Both were delicious and not too sweet. I've never really tried saffron before but their cake almost tasted like tres le ches. It does taste floral though. Would not recommend if you don't like floral flavors. Dubai chocolate cheesecake could have a little more crispy texture. Ambiance is really nice but never really had the chance to stay for very long.

Delicious coffees, teas, and desserts with modern Arab decor. Everything was delicious at Qamaria from the teas, "smoothies", coffees to desserts. The taste is a tad bit on the sweeter side so if you want a more authentic spicier taste, ask for less sweetness and don't get the lattes. The rose milk cake and caramel milk cakes were so moist (like tres leches) that we took a couple slices home. Araysi smoothie was nice, it was similar to a mango lassi. If you want to try any desserts get there earlier as most sell out by 7pm. It's nice to see more halal places popping up in the bay where you don't have to worry about the desserts.

I tried their pistachio latte, the Qamaria latte, caramel milk cake and a potato filled filo pastry. Pistachio latte was good, the Qamaria latte was a little too cardamom forward and I couldn't get the cinnamon taste as much. The cake was excellent and the pastry was okay. The service was okay, it was busy and the cashiers seemed a bit overwhelmed, which is totally understandable. This place has an awesome huge space where you can do work or to bring an entire family! Definitely pricey though, so for me this is more like a special treat type of place rather than a regular weekend spot.

Tried the pistachio latte and it was fantastic--bold, creamy, and perfectly made. The beef fatayer was decent, nothing extraordinary but satisfying. The interior is beautifully designed with a modern, aesthetic vibe and there's a good amount of seating available. Customer service was just okay--not the most attentive, but it got the job done. Plenty of parking.

This coffee spot is a must try!! Pistachio latte and caramel macchiato is one of our favorites. The coffee is strong, flavorful, and blends really well as a latte. They also have some food and dessert options. I really want to try the Dubai chocolate cheesecake next time! The ambiance is great. Also a good place to meet with family or friends or even to study. Highly recommend!

6/28/25 - I've been wanting to try this place out! I had no idea it opened late too! My friends and I arrived around 12:30 am and they were still open! Thank you to this place for opening late and thanks to the employees too! AMAZING iced pistachio latte and the honey comb pastry was also a 10/10! We liked how everything wasn't too sweet and the pastry had a nice balance between sweet and savory. Only thing I will say is drinks/food are a bit pricey, but I will probably still come back every now and then to try other things. I saw other reviews of other people's experiences, but personally for my first time it was good considering we arrived close to closing.

One thing to note - food and drinks are amazing but this place is popular. It also does not have outdoor seating and gets packed inside quickly. I wish there was more seating since it's a nice cafe with good vibes. I've been here twice and tried pistachio latte and Adeni chai. I liked the chai more, has more cardamom flavor and it does have whole milk (they suggest to not have it with plant based milk). I've tried both rose and pistachio milk cake and both are yum. Like a flavored tres leches.

I have been meaning to come visit here for a while! This coffee shop is very modern, clean and a perfect place to gather. The service was inviting and quick! I loved the presentation of your order on beautiful trays and cups it really elevates your experience when visiting. We got the Pistachio latte, mango matcha and pistachio cake which were all amazing, if it was one thing I could add would be that the latte could be a little hotter but other than that the flavors were worth the trip over here!

A couple of my friends where talking about this place so I gave it a shot. This is located in the same complex are McDonald's and Bob Sang. Closer to the freeway. There was a lot of hype to this place so I had high expectations. The place is modern, but familiar. It was packed the two times I went. Lines forming outside the cafe with no seating available inside. I have gone recently since my first visit and seems like it isn't too busy anymore. They had plenty of staff behind the counter so the drinks were flying out in good time. I have tried the pistachio latte, mufawaar, and qamaria, all iced. I also tried a slice of pistachio milk cake. The drinks: They were all very sweeet for my liking. Now, for someone who lived in Kuwait before (not saying both are the same, but have similar flavor profiles) I am used to the sweet coffee. The spices are also prominent and strong. If you are not used to the sweetness, I recommend asking for less sugar. The pistachio latte was my favorite overall. They used pistachio paste in the coffee so it will be a little grainy but it doesn't taste fake like some cafes that use flavorings instead of the real thing. The pistachio milk cake was okay, it's like a soaked cake with pistachio flavoring. Not really my favorite. Still want to try the other pastries they have in the case, maybe another day. Overall it was good. The coffee is good, the ambience is good (if not insanely packed), and the service is quick. Also plenty of parking.

It was a nice hangout and study spot. I saw a lot of people working on the laptops and there were also people talking as well. The pistachio latte was still a little too sweet for me even with less sweet but it was still yummy. I liked the Iced Aden and the taste of spices with less sugar. If you're not a big fan of spices then I'd recommend trying some the other drinks on their menu! Would totally go back to try their hot tea and desserts.

I had the pistachio latte with oatmilk. It was hands down one of the best speciality coffee lattes I have ever had. The desserts were delicious- I could only taste a small amount since I'm dairy intolerant- more vegan options would be appreciated! Loved the atmosphere and the people were very nice! My husband and I can't wait to go back !

A coffee shop that is open very late into the night? I'm sold. Located on Cushing Parkway in Fremont, Qamaria Yemeni Coffee offers delicious coffee and small bites. I got myself the Hot Pistachio Latte ($8) and the Chicken Shawarma ($9.50). Because I came here during the end of an event called Fremont Restaurant Week, the Chicken Shawarma was 50% off. The staff made a mistake on my coffee order, but I had only caught onto it after I finished the wrong order. My actual order was cooling on the side. The tickets must've been mixed up. Regardless, the staff were quick to take care of that issue. I did end up having 4 espresso shots in my body. My hands were shaking! Hot Qamaria Latte (5/5) OK, so I initially thought this was my order. It was great, but was ready to grill it for the lack of pistachio. That being said, what it did have was still very good. I've never had cardemom in coffee, but I've had cardamom in tea. It's easy to add too much and overwhelm the drink. The amount added here was just right. Overall smooth and creamy in spite of the double shot espresso suggesting otherwise. Chicken Shawarma (3/5) I think for what it is, the shawarma is serviceable. It is grilled to a texture that feels right, but something feels missing. Perhaps it could've been warmer? Perhaps the chicken could've been more flavorful? If I were to get this item again, it would be at a discounted rate. Hot Pistachio Latte (5/5) This was it. This was what I came here for. I love pistachio-flavored anything. Qamaria does it the best out of all the pistachio coffee I've tried. It's nutty and complements the profile of the coffee beans well. Keep in mind it stayed warm even after all that idle time. Cozy interior. Cozy atmosphere. I went in the morning, but I imagine everything feels different during those late night coffee runs. Friendly service. I'm coming back to Qamaria if I'm in the area.

Great spot for coffee & snacks. I got the pistachio cake and rose cake to bring home. They were delicious, not too sweet, makes a perfect treat. Spacious interior with plenty of inviting seating arrangements... there was a couple of seats by a fireplace, a row of upholstered seating by the wall, and I also noticed outlets so you can set up your devices. Order at the counter and they'll call you when your order is ready for pick up. Straight forward service. Cute spot for coffee dates with friends or a date date.

Wanted to find a spot to hangout for a bit before heading to my hotel so I spawn over here . This is a large open space cafe with a lot of seating and bright aesthetic. Got the iced Mufawaar with cold foam and a saffron milk cake. I saw they have Dubai chocolate cake too but it was out the other cake and pastry also look very tempting. Got my buzzer and went to find a spot. Got my drink and cake quickly. The iced Mufawaar is lightly sweet per request. I can sense the cardamom and the gentle bitterness of the coffee. Would recommend if you don't want to get a sweet drink. It pair well with the milk cake. The cream of the cake is light and the cake part itself is moist. I get a hint of saffron. I prefer to eat the layer separately and get a bit of coffee in between. Never tried this before but I am enjoying it. A nice spot to study or relax with some interesting desserts and coffee. Would like to try the other drinks next time - they have a great looking menu. Order at the counter and pick up your food kind of service but they were nice and courteous.

Super bustling cafe! It's gorgeous inside with plenty of seating, although it was all taken when I went on a weekend afternoon. It's great for studying with outlets, bathrooms, and late hours, if you can grab a spot. I wonder how busy it gets on weekdays. Drinks and desserts tend to be pricy. I got a pistachio latte for $9 which was just ok for the price. The pistachio butter layer was rather difficult to mix with the rest of the latte, and the flavor was really light. I also got the knafeh cheesecake, also about $9, which wasn't super special to me. It was just regular cheesecake with a hint of saffron flavor, since the knafeh layer was quite thin.

Finally tried Qamaria! It was super busy at night with the line going out the door. Service was good. I tried the iced Adeni and my sister got the same thing but hot (Premium Block Tea + Cream with cardamom). We asked about the sweetness level and they said the standard amount of sugar is 5 pumps! We reduced the sweetness by half and it was still sweet but good. Next time we will probably do even less. We tried the rose milk cake. The rose flavor was not overpowering, which I appreciated. The cake was soft and flavorful. Seating can be difficult but thankfully we got a place to sit. It was bustling even when we left. I'm planning to go back to try more of the items.

The pistachio latte here is amazing! I'm glad the espresso doesn't mask the nuttiness of the pistachio flavor. The desserts look amazing but, unfortunately, too sweet for me & I have a sweet tooth. I've tried the pistachio milk cake, rose milk cake, & the Dubai chocolate cheesecake and everything was just overwhelmingly sweet. It's spacious inside but always packed on the weekends so it could be a bit hard to find seating sometimes. But overall, this is a really nice cafe to meet up with people and enjoy a drink.

one of my favorite coffee shops. there's ample seating, the ambiance is nice and the chai latte is one of the best i've had! nice for working, studying or hanging with friends. the best part is the food menu, which ranges from savory to sweet, and small bites or snacks to a light meal. the customer service is excellent, too. i realized i made a mistake a few minutes after ordering. i was able to speak to the cashier and he took care of it so i got what i actually wanted.

This place is standout spot for coffee lovers looking to explore beyond usual with chill vibes. Ordered pistachio late and pistachio milk cake. The late had rich taste and felt like it was made with real pistachio paste. The cake was very fresh, flavorful and the sweetness was just perfect for people like us. With its rich and authentic flavors, warm atmosphere and excellent service it's a place worth visiting.

The drinks were great and the customer service was fine as well. My only suggestion would be to replace tables that are wobbly. Having cardboard or napkins under the legs to keep them steady doesn't seem like the best solution. I visited the Fremont location about two Sunday with my girls and we ended up sitting at a shaky table near the register. We had just gotten our drinks when my 4 year old placed her smoothie on the table. She leaned on the corner, which caused the table to tilt. Her drink spilled onto the floor and she also lost her balance and fell. I had to calm her down and then get back in line to buy another drink. It would be great if the tables could be replaced or properly stabilized. Shaky tables are not ideal for a coffee shop, especially when families with kids are visiting.

Qamaria is a really cute cafe with lots of seating and good vibes! They have lots of options and next time I'll definitely try out the cakes. Service was pretty fast, the line is long but it moves fairly quickly. My complaints though are that there are no decaf options! As someone who cannot drink caffeine but loves coffee flavor and trying out different drinks, I need decaf options. I ended up getting the strawberry lemonade refresher which was good but absolutely overpriced for what it was, which is my other complaint. The coffees are all $8+ which is a lot. My friends got brown sugar shaken espresso, matcha, and the Qamaria latte. All were good and I could tell were made with good quality, but a bit pricey.

The line here is CONSTANT, even in the evening, and I get it. When we stepped in, the line was out the door (so I guess we didn't step in, lol), all the tables were full with patrons chatting or doing work on their laptops, and more people waiting for any available table. Iced Pistachio Latte (5/5): I'm not usually a coffee person, nor a pistachio person, but I felt inclined to try this. So glad I did. The three layers mixed together and created a sweet nutty coffee treat that still tasted yummy after a few hours with the ice cubes melted. No words, just try it. Cappuccino (?): Again, I don't like coffee but my friend seemed to enjoy the simple bev. Rose Milk Cake (4/5): I prefer cakes like bundt cakes if I do indulge in the dessert, but this was new and enjoyable for me. It was moist, light, and floral. I want to try the other flavors. Def coming back when I'm in the coffee mood to try their signature blends, and their pies. They opened another location in my college town Riverside, where I'm headed back to soon! I'll be making a stop to grab a coffee. Maybe I'll do some work here as well.

Great location with plenty of seating -- if you can grab it! It gets very busy, with lines out the door, so you'll need to act fast to secure a table. The Adani chai was excellent, rich and full of flavor. They also offer a variety of drinks like refreshers, which is a nice touch. The selection of sweet and savory items is impressive -- the honeycomb bread and Biscoff cheesecake were both standouts. Definitely worth a visit!

I love that this place has pretty long opening hours! It's very spacious inside and nicely decorated. It's also great for working/studying!! The sofa/cushioned seats were very comfortable. I had to try their pistachio latte and it was yummy! We also tried their pistachio milk cake, and the flavor was nice and the cake was milky and spongy.

I was very surprised when I walked into this shop. The menu is very unique and the shop was larger than I expected and it was packed. We decided on the pistachio latte as the barista mentioned it was their signature. A bit too sweet for me, but it was an interesting taste experiment. The matcha latte had potential but it was too weak in flavor. The pasty case had so many unique items that makes this shop a must come back to try. They are open early and close around midnight or 1:00am, making it a great hang out spot. Easy parking. Casual. Good service Please come and create your own adventure.

I love that when I walked in I was immediately transported to a different country! The place is spacious and able to accommodate the influx of customers they have that morning. It took us only 10 mins to find a spot to sit. Unfortunately the line was long when we came in-but it was a saturday so it was understandable. We got the pistachio latte hot and cold. I prefer it hot because the pistachio was overwhelming in the cold drink. I think the syrup did not melt with the latte altogether compared to the hot one. The food were mostly sweets- which i dont mind but i might get them with regular coffee in the future so that it counters the sweetness.
