Always great experience, tea flavour is always consistent, Adil was really helpful. Service and ambience was great

This place turns out to be exactly what I want an exotic coffee shop to be: serious with no coffee nonsense, high-impact dark matter that actually tastes like something, at prices that make me think about what I'm ordering but don't make me drive by (it's in the same plaza as a Dunkin' so there's the other end of the spectrum). Their 'Yemeni' coffee hits my sweet spot of strong and drinkable, with cardamom and Haraz spice adding a depth that I can't get anywhere else. The honey pastry - a Yemeni cream-cheese-and-honey, honeycomb-style pie slice situation - looks innocent enough to convince me that it's calorieless and worth "just picking at and tasting" then absolutely wrecks my self-control everytime: warm dough, slightly tangy cream cheese, and a sesame seed-honey finish that's rich and sticky, especially delectable when it's paired with that bold cup on my tray. The servers all make intentional eye contact in very genuine pursuit of making my experience a great one and their offerings are very extensive even though I am only familiar with the two I've mentioned here. They have, virtually, a full range of gigantic croissants, pastries and breakfast foods that will delight any palate! The middle eastern music adds to the other-worldliness intrigue of stepping into a middle eastern coffee bizarre from the parking lot where you just climbed out of your car a few feet away. The main reason I come here, however, is the rich community that gathers around this seemingly humble hot brown liquid. It's a robust multi-cultural melting pot of very diverse nationalities who seem to leave their differences out in the parking lot. Everyone smiles here and visitors exchange niceties and approving glances and winks as contrasted with what's happening in the outside world. It's an oasis of peace and tranquility that counterbalances the anxiety I get from the news. It's worth trying, take my word for it, even if the idea of it creates uncertainty in your mind. This is an occasion to not believe everything you think! read more

I'd been hearing a lot about this place, so I finally decided to give it a try. It wasn't too busy inside when I went. I ordered an iced salted caramel decaf latte and a grilled chicken Caesar wrap. I didn't realize they warmed up the wraps, but it was a nice surprise. I waited about 5-10 minutes for both items. While I was waiting, I noticed one of the employees packaging slices of cheesecake into containers for an order. Instead of using tongs or another utensil, they were using the same pair of gloves to handle multiple slices. As someone with a nut allergy, this concerned me because I also saw them go from a pistachio cheesecake to what looked like another flavor and then back again. It made me question whether there's a risk of cross-contamination, so I'm hesitant to try the desserts. The coffee was good, but nothing that really stood out, especially for around $8. The wrap was tasty, though, and I'd definitely order that again. read more

I recently visited Haraz Coffee House in Schaumburg and really enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. The café is beautifully designed, clean, and comfortable, making it a great place to relax with friends or enjoy a quiet coffee break. The Cortado was excellent--smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. The Dubai Cheesecake was delicious and definitely my favorite dessert. We also tried a few mousse cakes that looked beautiful, but the flavors just weren't for me. Of course, that's a matter of personal preference. The only disappointment was the cappuccino. It was much sweeter than expected, and no one mentioned that it came sweetened. I would have appreciated knowing that before ordering. Overall, it's a lovely coffee shop with a warm atmosphere, great coffee, and some excellent desserts. I would definitely come back for the Cortado and Dubai Cheesecake. read more

Schaumburg's new Yemeni coffee spot! I've seen quite a few Haraz locations pop up in Chicagoland and Schaumburg made the list. Located across the street from Costco, this is perfectly located in a strip mall with new business introductions to the city. Parking can be a bit difficult but they have extra parking in the back as well as a drive thru when on the go. Their menu offers traditional flavor profiles paired with espresso. I asked the staff member for a recommendation and he chose the Pistachio Latte for me. They kindly ask if you are drinking in or to-go to save use on their travel cups. My latte was served pipping hot and I had to wait about 20 minutes before I could start drinking it. The flavor was good but a bit too sweet. The color was also bright green which was off putting. While I think this coffee shop had great things to offer, I simply just don't think it was my kind of coffee spot. read more

I went to Haraz Coffee House to meet some friends and get some work done. The inside is open, spacious, and inviting. I had their hot chocolate. It came out in a nice mug since I was drinking in the cafe. The hot chocolate was nice and rich. The cafe had many people in it but I was still able to hear everyone at my table. Overall, I had a good time and will return to Haraz Coffee House. read more

Decided to give Haraz another shot and picked a location other than Niles. The service is still so very slow, I waited 20 min for my Adeni (cold brew with Haraz spices and cream). They can't substitute with non-dairy options. The baristas all seemed kinda lost, maybe they are all new? There's definitely some operational inefficiency. Their dessert looked good but not as good as the ones in Niles. I asked for light sugar which I'm fine with but it's too bland for my husband. The spice flavor was also very light unfortunately and that's even without ice. I think the the only redeeming factor for this visit is probably that the space is all very beautifully decorated and comfortable for hanging out. Unfortunately I'm just wish the coffee and flavor are stronger. read more

My husband thinks they're still working out some kinks, and the wait time was a bit long, but what he ordered for us was really good. He got us a little snack, honey bites? It's like a little glossy ball of bread that you dip in honey. Doesn't sound like much, but it's tasty. He got me a non-caffeinated milk tea latte. It had such good body, deep, rich flavor, and something fragrant like cardamom. I liked this a lot, and so did he. He got himself a coffee that also had cardamom. I think it may have been slightly too floral for him. But it was also nice. We're looking forward to trying this place again. Apparently they source beans from Yemen, which, had we known, we would have wanted to try that because that's more unique and supposed to be really good! read more

This is my 6th Yemeni coffee place that I have visited across three cities in the US and by far, this one was the least exciting both in terms of ambience and quality of food. My fav is the Adeni chai, so I ordered that and with that I ordered a pistachio milk cake. The Adeni chai tasted bad from the first sip. By bad I mean it tasted licorice. It was like drinking a hot syrup of mud and water. So BAD. The milk cake was not balanced either... meaning the combination of various milks and the cake wasn't uniform... Seemed like someone was in a hurry to get things done. Anyways, I know this is a new place, but I ain't going back there. read more

Stopped by this location after having been to the other locations. Unfortunately, they were not officially open, but the owner Zo was so nice and offered me a complimentary drink while the staff was training. They will officially open Tuesday the 12th, and will definitely make a stop again here once they are open! As far as the other locations the drinks and pastries are amazing! read more

I popped by your new spot today after seeing it was open and noticed you're in the midst of a soft opening how exciting. We were curious to check it out. When we first stepped inside, there was a bit of an unusual scent, which might just be new building smells or something similar. Thankfully, it cleared up pretty quickly. We were greeted nicely, and it was quite early, so it wasn't too busy, which was understandable. I have to say, your pastries looked absolutely delightful, but the food was definitely a step up from some other Haraz locations we've visited in that regard. We ended up ordering a pistachio latte and a pistachio matcha latte, which sounded fantastic. However, when we got to the register, the interaction felt a little brief. We were trying to input our phone number for rewards, and it seemed like something got missed. My wife mentioned it, and the response was more along the lines of next time be quicker, and we didn't receive a receipt either, which made it tough to track our points. While the spot itself is pleasant, we've seen some other Haraz locations with a bit more pizzazz in their decor. But the biggest bump was when our lattes were brought over. They were placed on the table quite suddenly, and unfortunately, some of my drink ended up spilling. It was a little bit of a letdown after looking forward to them. Just wanted to share our thoughts from our first visit. read more

I wanted to try this coffee house since it opened. Replaced Jimmy John'. The place is spacious and clean. Service was great. The servers must be new. They speak very softly and polite. The coffee was great. The only thing that I would suggest is that they make the coffee a little hotter. Mine turned cold pretty fast!! read more

I love this place and this is someone visiting from LA where the coffee matcha scene is incredibly competitive so with that being said based of off Omar's recommendation I ordered Adenai Chai and the Baklava Cheesecake which is the most popular and also non vegan option since they use egg for the specific cheesecake. 10s all around with Service, Quality, and Ambience. read more

It's overpriced, 10 dollars for one latter that was 1/3 milk, 1/3 ice, 1/3 cold foam, pretty sure there wasn't a drop of coffee. Tasted nothing like coffee. Tasted like a banana milk shake. 2 stars cause the environment was very pretty. read more

Very disappointing. I've been to a few of these coffee places in this area and Haraz in Schaumburg was a disappointment. Three of us came in on a Saturday evening around 925pm. Below is what we experienced 1. Ordered three specialty coffees and two desserts. The coffees came to our table within 5 minutes. One of us ordered a caramel macchiato. We watched three families come after us who got their entire orders. I go to the counter after 20 minutes to ask about the desserts and was asked what we got. Terrible 2. The three coffees we had did not even taste as described. One of the staff comes with a coffee even though the three of us had our coffees. Turns out we didn't have the caramel macchiato on our group that we ordered but something else. Terrible 3. We had to ask the counter to put toilet paper in the bathroom. Terrible again 4. Saw them cleaning tables with a rag and watched the staff member drop rag on floor and continue to wipe tables with it. Place was dirty on floor, tables and chairs. 5. The water tasted weird and they serve everything in plastic that is super cheap and fragile while the costs for their food and drinks are overpriced. Our group was told by the staff member that they were understaffed. I would disagree. Watching the four staff members serve the majority demographic that goes to this coffee shop over me being Caucasian is what felt disrespectful. The staff all look 20 years old and were just walking around behind the counter. I will stay away from this place and go to other surrounding coffee shops that feel cleaner, tastier with menu, and welcoming. Did I mention that my group saw another Caucasian woman go through the same experience complaining how she waited for a while just for her coffee? read more

Quality of their lattes is really bad. Besides the sub par taste and they were served luke warm. Stick with where you normally get lattes and mixed drinks vs. overpriced $9 at this location. The staff was courteous and wanted to help. That's why I gave 2 stars. read more
