Brought me back to my childhood in Saudi Arabia. The barista was welcoming and the overall vibe was quiet even with the music. I would come here to study. I ordered the orange blossom mint decaf and it was delicious. I should have gotten the Turkish coffee but my body can't handle the caffeine.

I was really disappointed by my visit and honestly don't understand the hype…read more The Dubai latte was tasty, but it tasted more like a dessert than a coffee drink. The Yemen latte had good flavor and spices, but it was still overly sweet even though I specifically requested light sweetness. The food was less than underwhelming. The Dubai cheesecake tasted stale, almost like it had been sitting in the fridge for days. The manakeesh with cheese and za'atar was very mid, tough, hard, and not enjoyable. The biggest issue was the bathroom, which was filthy and really off-putting. Overall, the experience did not live up to the hype, and I would not visit again.

What a delightful find after a morning of bike ride into Berkeley. We stashed our bikes and…read morequickly became immersed with the variety of colorful, tantalizing pastries beautifully displayed inside the cafe. Eclairs galore! Friendly server quickly got our tea and iced latte out. I also couldn't resist a chocolate dipped scallop shaped cookie which turned out to be two sandwiched together. Very flaky texture and lightly sweetened which was perfect. We saw that they also offered different savory sandwiches and a "French taco" lol. Will have to return and try next time!

My boyfriend and I grabbed a quick lunch here after studying next door at Heyma. The cashier was…read morereally friendly and answered all our questions. We shared the Merguez Sandwich and a Rose Pistachio Turkish Delight. They don't have any indoor seating but have a few tables outside. We waited about 10 minutes for our sandwich. The sandwich was delicious! We got it medium spicy and it was perfect for us. I would have loved it if it had a bit more sauce to it because it was a bit dry but the flavor was great. The turkish delight was so yummy and I thought it was also well priced. I'll happily be back in the future to try more of their foods and pastries! There was also plenty of street parking in the neighborhood.

The nice barista explained that the coffee menu changes frequently. The single origin coffees cost $1 more. She said it gets really busy, but I got there at just the right time to order without waiting in line. Free Wi-Fi with seating inside and out. The plentiful availability allowed me to find a seat on the sidewalk that allowed me to catch a few rays with my latte on a sunny day. Such goodness. Lots of folks there working on their laptops inside. A mom happily nursing and some folks lost in conversation outside. There my soul received the sweet caress of a perfectly balanced rose latte. Great coffee and good vibes in West Berkeley.

We ordered an iced mocha and two of their pastries. I thought the coffee tasted pretty solid, it wasn't too sweet and the pastries was really good. The baristas seemed friendly, there were a lot of regulars that was able to skip the line because the barista knew their orders already (no shade!) There are plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. It's super cool that they roast their own beans in-store.

I tried this place a few times. Despite the cute concept it's not great. Coffee is average, but…read morethey only use oat milk which imparts too much flavor. The two guys who work there are a bit snobby and not very friendly. And it's the first of hundreds of coffee bars I've been charged an extra shot for a half caff (which is not an extra shot, it's the usual 2) $7 total plus tip. I'm about to stop tipping, I'm sick of it. Maybe I'll try a pour over or "tasting" someday and give 'em a chance to show their personalities. But I doubt it.

The turkey was some cheap weird tasting slices, and the salad had like cheap wishbone dressing on it. 1/5 horrible wouldn't order it again. The lemonade waa very bitter and sugary at the same time. I added a lot of water to it. The orange juice was bitter and watery. Overall at almost $30 it's definitely not worth it. I wanted to give this place 2 stars really. Ny coworker's Lemon bar was very stale and gross 1/5 stars. My coworker also didn't like the mocha and didn't finish it 3/5 stars. Parking is difficult to find, food was horrible, we won't be back since we didn't have a good experience.

Love their little shop it's a great place to buy housewarming gifts. I've been coming here for a few years and as a nanny, my only gripe is it's digital or card payments only. I know it's common in the Bay Area because of theft, but I've never been able to wrap my head around businesses not taking the national currency- if they took cash I would come in much more often.

I liked the friendliness of the staff and I loved the outdoor space-- it was quiet with a lot of trees. I was able to sit by a fountain and just be present.
