Been coming here for the past year with my friends and we love it after a late night event or a quick pick-me-up before he hit the trains! Excellent service and food. I wish they would warm up the environment more tho, it could use some dimming lights and better music and bathroom vibes. Overall, come for the food and vibrant community 💕

It has become my favorite place to go for coffee in Astoria. My go-to coffee is Jubani - medium, light roast coffee, and coffee husks with cardamom, ginger, and cinnamon. I usually get it with honey instead of sugar. I typically like spiced flavor teas and coffee; thus, I end up loving the taste of Jubani too. If you don’t like the taste of coffee husks and are looking for something stronger, then you can try Sana’ani. The best part is that neither Jubani nor Sana’ani comes with milk; making it perfect for people like us who are lactose intolerant. There are other coffees without milk or cream but I didn’t try them yet. Another three must-try items from the menu are Khaliat Alnahl, Pistachio Milk Cake, and Feta Spinach. All three of them are delectable, particularly the Pistachio Milk Cake. (Took Lactaid Supplements before having them 😋). The Feta Spinach was flaky, light, and delicious. It perfectly pairs with a small pot of Jubani. I had also tried the Basbousa but was slightly disappointed with the taste as it wasn’t moist and flavorful like a typical Basbousa that I had tried before in other places.

This place is a very popular in certain kind of a people. But overall, the food is good. Basically, it is a bakery. But the Adani Tea is marvelous, we love it. The quality stuff is top notch.

I always wanted to try this place and finally got the chance! I loved my iced latte and I am definitely recommending their chai latte,staff was amazing and friendly,coming back soon!

Best arabic coffee with many options. My recommendation is to offer sugar free coffee and sweets ( by sugar free i mean adding a sweetner like Allulose) and more healthier options like the spinach pie. Update: last rating was 4 stars because the service was not top, but i decided to give them a chance and they didnt fail me. They asked me if I liked the food and if everything is good. However they should pay attention next time to what we tell them in terms of saying we want the food to go not to stay.

Possibly my favorite discovery in Astoria so far. I’m a big pistachio latte fan—so much so that I usually make one at home every morning and reserve café versions for weekend treats. Today, after a spontaneous Target run, I stumbled upon this hidden gem just a few steps away, and I’m so glad I did. From the outside, it’s pretty unassuming, but stepping in felt like being transported somewhere—bright, spacious, cozy, and with such a welcoming vibe. Saed, who greeted me with warmth, shared that their pistachio latte is the best-seller. Naturally, I was intrigued. When I asked about the ingredients and calories, he kindly offered to make it less sweet. I truly appreciated the gesture. Initially, I wasn’t planning to stay—I was set on a quick to go cup. But when Saed offered to serve it in a beautiful mug with latte art, I figured, why not? It was a hot day, the space was cool and relaxing, and I wasn’t in a rush. When my drink was ready, it looked just as lovely as it tasted—familiar, comforting, and well-balanced. The latte art was a thoughtful touch, and the coconut hibiscus cake was a wonderful surprise. Delicious. But what made the biggest impression wasn’t just the coffee or the cake—it was the hospitality. Saed even encouraged feedback and said he’d be happy to tweak it if needed. We’ve become so used to rushed, transactional service that a moment like this—a genuine, kind, and thoughtful customer experience—feels rare and incredibly refreshing. I’m a loyal Starbucks person (and yes, there’s one right across the street), but I think I just found my new favorite spot. Kudos to Saed and the team for a standout first impression. Please keep it up. I’ll definitely be back. ✨💚

Wow, this is the best coffee I've ever had, forget about Starbucks, not even on the same level, everything is expertly made, plenty of seating and you can even go out on the outer porch area if you want. Atmosphere is inviting and calm, it's clean and well kept. Pastries are delicious, and freshly made. Workers are friendly and will even explain the lineage of the coffee house, and how it's made etc. I highly highly recommend this coffee house.

We noticed a new coffee shop pop up, and had to try it. Their pistachio latte was delicious and not too sweet (I am Asian, so that is usually my fear for any sweet drink). The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the space is luxuriously large for NYC. A great place to go with a group or on a date!

Place was packed and pretty loud for a lazy Saturday afternoon. Interior is very well designed. Adani chai was recommended by the person at the register and it was OK Refresher was way better than the Dunkin and Starbux. Honey comb bread was good. Careful with the tea it is served piping hot

I loved the place l. I ordered caramel latte it was amazing and got also chocolate cake for dessert it was ok. They serve fast 10/10 and so police and helpful. The ambiance was nice

I’ve been coming here for almost two years now. The adeni chai is delicious, and it’s a great place to study or work. However, I do have to note that customer service has gone downhill since last autumn. Before, I’d be greeted at the counter with a smile and a friendly “good morning,” but over the past few months, the staff approach the register hesitantly and take my order without much warmth or greeting. I still come here because my family and I do love the tea and food. I just wish the staff were as friendly as they used to be.

I ordered the Yemeni iced latte, but I think the taste is something that people might have different opinions about. To me, it felt quite weak. If you enjoy a richer, stronger coffee, this might not be very satisfying. With the latte, I could barely taste the coffee itself. For dessert, I tried the saffron cake, which was very delicious. It took about 10 minutes for the coffee to be ready after I ordered.

Hi Out of Towners--This used to be an Old School Vintage no frills diner called Tasty's...Luckily Tasty's moved further down the block. 👍 --- Dear Qahwah House Astoria Location, Please follow Food Safety protocols according to the NYC Health Codes. This means cleaning up restrooms consistently. Speaking Up For Women-- 👎the only negative about this spot, make sure to stock toilet paper, hand soap, and or hand sanitizer especially during holidays when many people are visiting the wonderful Astoria Community. (don't know why...I have to say this on the internet, but keeping bathrooms well equipt is important for all) Many New Yorkers and Tourists are hard working to keep the city running! We need to stop in to purchase a beverage. The location is nice, but please follow health CODES according to NYC Rules and Regulations. In Solidarity 🇺🇸

VERY DISAPPOINTED! I paid the same price as always for Khaliat Almahl, but this time they gave me a much smaller portion (see photo). When I pointed it out, they tried to convince me that the smaller one is what I’m “supposed to get.” I’ve been coming here for a years and ordering the same thing every time. Don’t tell a loyal customer they’re wrong instead of admitting you reduced the portion! Charging the same money for less food and refusing to take responsibility on time. Won’t be coming back.

Beautiful space and a very cozy, upscale vibe. I loved the concept and was excited to try Yemeni chai since I usually get mine from Indian spots. Unfortunately, the experience at the counter wasn’t great. When my brother asked for chai, the cashier responded in a rushed and annoyed tone, repeatedly saying “brother” instead of calmly explaining the options. It made him feel uncomfortable and rushed into ordering. The place has a lot of potential, but better customer service would really improve the experience.
