Mevlana
2864 Colorado Blvd, Denver, CO
Crema's Take
“Mevlana is a beautifully curated Middle Eastern café where Turkish and Persian owners have created an authentically welcoming space that feels like stepping into another world right in North Central Denver. Beyond excellent specialty drinks like chai tea and matcha, this spot shines for its thoughtful hookah lounge experience—they use quality tobaccos with metal bowls instead of foil and actively tend to coals so you're never left waiting. The laid-back vibe, comfy couches, and attentive service make it perfect for lingering with friends or solo, with the owners visibly present and genuinely invested in making guests feel at home.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Open late.

Beautiful interior , great customer service and by far the best hookah I’ve had from a hookah lounge. When coals are dying down they be sure to give you new ones. Had a chai tea and it was amazing. 10 out of 10 !!!
