Yemeni coffee house pouring cardamom-spiced lattes, traditional Adeni tea, and Mofa flatbreads in a bright, modern space. The Aurora outpost runs late and draws a steady mix of students with laptops and families catching up over honey-sweetened drinks. Worth the trip from the city if you've never had Yemeni coffee — it's a different lineage of the bean entirely.

It was my first time trying their coffee and honeycomb bread and it was such a delight. The coffee is so fresh and so authentic the bread I don’t even have any words to describe of how great it was. You must try this place. Sara attended me in. She was so attentive and helpful. I had all my coworkers at Naperville dental specialist. Try it and they were in love with the honeycomb bread. They will be coming to visit soon.
Matcha and coffee is great, place is clean and seats are very comfy. Their customer service needs improvement. I stood behind the counter and an employee standing at the drive thru looked over at me when I got there. However, she stood there on her phone for a few minutes before helping me. It is not the first time I’ve stood there waiting for them to take my order while they’re obviously not doing anything. Bear in mind their door has a chime to let them know when people leave and enter.
Entirely REINVENTING the coffee and tea experience for Americans. I absolutely loved this place. Many items to choose from, both food and drink. I got the Adeni Chai tea and a small Mufawaar. The 1st--deliciously aromatic Chai tea with cardamon. The 2nd--a medium roast coffee with evaporated milk...a creamy coffee concoction with cardamon, also. I am addicted to both. You can get most drinks with or without cream and with or without sugar. If you've never been to this place, I recommend checking it out for a whole new adventure.
I really enjoy your coffee — it’s consistently good, and I genuinely appreciate having a place like yours in our neighborhood. However, there’s one issue that keeps happening, and I feel it’s important to mention. Every time I order coffee to go, the cup has a noticeable smell of strong men’s cologne, as if it was handled by someone wearing a lot of fragrance. Unfortunately, this affects the overall experience and makes it a bit unpleasant. I’m leaving 4 stars because I do like your coffee, but this is something that could easily become a dealbreaker. I would kindly suggest asking staff to avoid wearing strong perfumes while handling drinkware. Thank you — I hope this can be addressed.
Had another great experience at this Qamaria location near the Fox Valley Mall in Aurora. Drove up on a sunny afternoon just a little after 2pm to see a couple of groups enjoying their drinks and snacks in this last bit of beautiful summer weather on the patio. Inside the cafe there were a couple of tables taken but still plenty of open space to hang out if I'd had the chance to. The staff were friendly and patient as I took my time scanning the menu, the specials and the many pastries on display. I ordered an iced Qamaria latte along with a chicken pie. They told me it would be right out so I sat down but made the mistake of sitting close enough to the display case full of all the cakes so my sweet tooth ended up getting the better of me and I was suddenly back at the register ordering some baklava and a slice of date cake. The drink and pastries were out shortly after my moment of weakness and the staff member thanked me again when I picked everything up. Everything looked and tasted delicious. I was actually surprised at how much I enjoyed the Qamaria latte as I'm not the biggest fan of honey but in combination with the cardamom and cinnamon it was great! Would be really interested in getting a warm version once fall sets in. The chicken pie is a wonderful savory option. Tasty dough with a generous amount of nicely seasoned slices of chicken underneath melted cheese. It was heated up for me and smelled and tasted so good once I sank into it. The date cake was rich and very flavorful as well. I saved the trio of baklava for a little later and am happy that those were just as good as everything else I enjoyed.
