Arwa Specialty Coffee

A cozy little Middle Eastern café with beautiful decor that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. The tea was definitely my favorite, and the pastries were fresh and delicious. The coffee was interesting with a strong cardamom flavor—authentic, though a bit too intense for my taste.

Super yummy and very beautiful inside! They have a small selection of sweet and savory breads/desserts. They also had a rotating specialty menu of lattes (not on the board—make sure to check the digital slideshow) that looked delicious. We got the Mofawer coffee (hot, pre-brewed, with spices) and pistachio latte (iced). They were amazing! I was very impressed with how the pistachio latte tasted like actual pistachio nuts, not the artificial sweet syrup I’ve become accustomed to at other shops. The Mofawer latte tasted great with strong cardamom and ginger flavor. They charge between $5.50-7.50 for drink in sizes 8oz, 12oz, 16oz, or pot (depending on drink type). I feel the charges are standard for the area. The seating is beautiful! I love the gold and marble decor. There’s ample small tables and then a small cushioned area with two or three tables.

This Yemeni cafe, Arwa, has gotta be so beautiful built and had the most delicious options to enjoy. They had a wild selection of different coffees, matchas, teas, and refreshers to try. Along with their seasonal drinks and pastries. I ordered an Iced Date Palm Latte with date cold foam. Along with a bite sized vegetable pizza, chicken samosa, and their cheese manaqish. The samosa had flavor and crisp yet it was dry. Their cheese manaqish was soft and warm yet cheesy. And their pizza is always a classic with an amazing cheese pull when you eat it. Now lemme talk about the latte I had- the Iced Date Palm Latte. OMG! The first sip is equivalent to taking a bite of a date. So sweet yet still has that coffee taste everyone loves! You can adjust the sweetness and amount of espresso you like. This cafe is halal and definitely a 10/10! Go NOW!

This coffee shop is phenomenal. Like, my goodness me. I enjoyed a salted caramel latte. I came here after completing a night shift and drove from work, and the owners were so nice. I came an hour early accidentally and They still took me in out of their graciousness, and let me sit and do some work. the owner out of his kindness, gave me a latte. The atmosphere is beautiful, and the vibes are peaceful and nice great for working, lounging or families. The service is great. The workers are very pleasant. I hope that this place truly gets the recognition it it deserves. my drink also was fantastic and i don’t say that lightly because in a drink connoisseur lol. i have to come back and try their other items and drinks, but this might just become my favorite place to visit! highly recommend to anyone

Great new coffee & tea spot! The staff were really helpful with their suggestions. We decided to try the traditional flight and honeycomb. Both were great! The Adeni chai was our favorite. Can’t wait to try some of their lattes and matchas. The space is beautiful with plenty of seating options.
