Qahwah House

Best Adeni Chai in Brooklyn. Great snacks. Great ambience. Great place to read or finish up a bit of work. Lots of socializing going on too so don't expect a quiet atmosphere.

Such a cute cozy tea shop. I purchased a dragon fruit refresher, a strawberry matcha, a lemon cake, a spinach danish and a maple pecan danish. The strawberry matcha was like velvet. It was honestly the best strawberry matcha I have ever had. The spinach croissant was delicious, flavorful and STUFFED. The maple pecan was delicious but sadly there were no pecans in mine. Though it was extremely flaky and warm. The lemon cake was moist. While I was waiting, someone ordered a pot of hot adeni chai that looked marvelous, so I purchased one iced. The chai was robust, not overly sweet, and aromatic. It was strong as well which was perfect!

If you are a coffee connoisseur this is the place for you. Coffee was the best I’ve had since being in New York. The barista Amr made a perfect Latte! The moment you walk in and understand their deep connection with coffee making. You know you’re in good hands.
