Qahwah Time

Crema's Take
“Qahwah Time is a thoughtfully designed Brooklyn café that honors traditional coffee cultures while crafting creative specialty drinks, with genuine warmth from the owner that makes you want to linger. Their traditional Adeni coffee and house-made pastries like za'atar cream cheese are standouts, and the modern-yet-cozy space feels like a refuge designed with real care for detail. This is the kind of place where you'll have a meaningful conversation over an expertly prepared cup and leave feeling genuinely welcomed.”

I had a wonderful time with delicious tea and lovingly prepared pastries, and a pleasant chat with the owner. This café is very charming, tastefully decorated, cozy, and modern. I felt very comfortable in a foreign city.
I had an amazing experience at this café "Qahwah Time specialty coffee" ! The service was excellent from the moment I walked in. I ordered a hot chocolate, and I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious it tasted. It was rich, smooth, and beautifully presented with a lovely design on top that made me so happy. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They kindly provided WiFi, which gave me the opportunity to work in such a beautiful and comfortable environment. Thank you so much for your wonderful service — I will definitely be coming back!
Wow, I absolutely love this place. So far I have tried the traditional Adeni coffee and pastry Zaatar cream cheese. Sooo delicious, and beautiful too. A little cream cheese inside fluffy balls that make up a slice of this Zaatar, golden brown and crispy on the outside, drizzled with honey, and toasted sesame to give a sweet and savory flavor at the same time. I had a little piece of something that looked like baklava, a pastry with honey and nuts, I may have a bigger piece next time! The Adeni is similar to chai and you can have it as a tea or a coffee, love it! The place is spacious and the music is great too! Soft sounds of the Oud fill the space creating a really cozy atmosphere. Music is not too loud, perfect for meeting up with a friend and catching up. Staff is very kind and will help you choose if you are not familiar with the traditional offerings. I'll be back for sure!
Coffee was okay, slightly less than average. the baklava was not good though, definitely wouldn't recommend trying it. The overall atmosphere is nice and good design. Staff is mostly friendly but when i asked the cashier for recommendations, she had no idea and just read off the menu.
I happened to walk by and was instantly drawn in by the beautiful sign! Inside, everything is spotless, modern, and thoughtfully designed. I was truly impressed by the interior🤩 Every little detail shows how much care and creativity the owners put into it! The atmosphere feels warm, cozy, and welcoming, almost like home🥰 I highly recommend trying their traditional Yemeni tea or coffee☕️ I tried it for the first time and absolutely loved it! I’ll definitely be coming back to explore more of their unique flavors🙏
