The warmest welcome ever. The pistachio latte is perfect strong and the crepes aren't overly strong. 10/10 experience read more

Stopped by on a weekday afternoon with some friends. I ordered a chai, while my friends ordered green tea. We ended up sitting there for over an hour, chatting and enjoying our drinks. The space is spacious and comfortable, and we had a sofa and a couple of chairs to ourselves. Several people came in and out while we were there, either enjoying their beverages inside or taking them to go, so it definitely seemed like a bustling spot. There's also outdoor seating, which would be nice on a warmer day. Overall, it was a great place to sit, relax, and catch up with friends over tea. read more

Shahmaran Cafe - Chai and green teas - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

we needed a relaxed place to sit and have lunch, and this place was awesome! its still fairly new, so i'm happy to have stopped and supported them. really delicious, fragrant, savory chicken wraps (shawarma and roll) and the waffles and crepes also delicious! the highlight for me was the green tea-- with mint and cardamom. i could bathe in it. i believe the man behind the counter was the owner, and he was very kind and accommodating. he seemed happy to have us there! i suggest sitting outside on the patio, it was lovely. huge bonus is staying open until 10pm, makes me wish it was close to where i live! read more

Friendly, warm owner and service + EXCELLENT Turkish coffee + all kinds of other coffee + unique and delicious afghani pastries + a relaxing, warm vibe and atmosphere with authentic and beautiful Afghani artifacts like the hand-woven wall-hanging Afghani rug I'm posting as a picture all make this place punch above its weight - a GREAT upgrade from chain store coffee. When I asked, they taught me how to say good morning in Farsi and them gave me a free baklava out of goodwill. I'll be back! read more

A coworker and I were looking for a coffee and saw that they were doing a soft opening so thought we would check it out. There are quite a few places to relax and loved the decorations. There were two other people in the restaurant waiting for food. The cases were about half full. We had to wait about 10 minutes to order as they were a little behind making some waffles. I ordered a Turkish coffee and looked over the food options but since they were so behind I just got the coffee. My coworker got the pistachio latte. It took another 5 minutes to get our orders. We sat at a table while we waited. read more

Cute cafe that has strong, Turkish coffee, and pastries. Haven't tried the food though. Service was great, the ladies at the counter were patient and helpful answering all our questions! They don't have decaf coffee or tea options, but they have other fruity drinks. read more

Such a beautiful hidden gem in Sac! The atmosphere at Shahmaran Cafe is cozy and beautiful, and the service was amazing! I tried the Turkish coffee, pistachio cake, and a white chocolate latte, and everything was delicious. The pistachio cake was light, creamy, and definitely my favorite! I also loved the traditional presentation of the Turkish coffee. Definitely a place I'd come back to! read more

This place was such a pleasant surprise! From the moment you walk in, the ambiance pulls you in -- beautifully decorated inside and out with picturesque displays that are definitely Yelp-photo worthy. Plenty of seating, a clean bathroom, and an overall warm, welcoming atmosphere made the experience even better. Now let's talk food... the chicken shawarma? Absolutely chef's kiss. Tender, flavorful, and easily the star of the meal. The coffee was rich and satisfying, and the crepes were packed with flavor and generously portioned. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully made. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive. They did seem a little young and slightly inexperienced at times, but their friendly customer service and positive energy more than made up for it. The only minor downside was noticing crumbs on a few of the seats, but aside from that, the restaurant was clean, enjoyable, and somewhere I'd happily return to. Definitely worth checking out! read more

I've been here a few times over the last month or so. The inside of the coffee shop is absolutely beautiful. It's spacious and it doesn't matter where you sit because there's always something visually appealing near by. The coffee is great and genuinely tastes good. Good if you like the flavor of coffee but not too sweet. I've had a few food items as well like the poppy seed muffin and the chicken shawarma wrap. Both were really good. Like thinking about it the next day good. The man and woman I've spoke to who work there are both very nice. The woman was able to make some coffee recommendations for me the first time I was there which was super helpful. I'm looking forward to returning and continuing to support a local business! read more

Such a nice place with relaxing atmosphere and pleasant decor. Great spot to get some work done and a cool selection of Turkish delights!

I highly recommend Shahmaran Cafe! Although limited food choices, the savory and sweet selections taste great and are very unique Perian cuisine. I enjoy their Belgian waffles with the four type of fruit as topping, along with the Turkish coffee. Their chicken wraps have an exquisite spicy middle eastern flavor. The ambiance is great with Persian decor and background music. There i even a small, intimate outdoor patio. A great place for meet ups, meeting with friends or just hangout time! read more

Great place and wonderful, relaxed atmosphere. We felt transported far away from Sacramento. My wife and I stopped by for Turkish coffee and were pleasantly surprised. We will definitely come back!! read more

Shahmaran is a Turkish style cafe. The storefront of the business is very unassuming. I was pleasantly surprised that the interior of this business was beautiful and spacious with ample seating. There is also a nice patio where I sat and enjoyed an Americano and a pastry. The place seemed very empty, so I hope it catches on. It's a wonderful alternative to your standard coffee shop. Stays open late. I will definitely return. Enter the parking lot from Manlove Rd. read more

Met the owner on a late Sunday night. She is so kind and eager to share great food in a fun setting. Parking was easy in a little plaza. Once you step inside, you immediately notice the big moon wall and lots of comfy, cute seating. We ordered at the right side of the counter and sat in the outer room in the far left because of the umbrellas and lounges! I highly recommend a pot of tea for a bougie experience. The cheese pastry was soft and the crepe was so filling even when shared. We have big hopes for this business and look forward to bringing our families to enjoy a proper breakfast spread under the lovely sunlight. read more

After a walk by the river, we were looking for a place close to home to grab a coffee or something to drink as we weren't quite ready to head home. After a quick search, we landed on Shahmaran Cafe, as we prefer outdoor seating and they appeared to have it. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed and offered a menu. The person working the counter was very helpful with answering questions about the items on display. The indoor space was spacious, bright and clean. The outdoor space is also equally welcoming and calming. There's a running water fountain, fun umbrellas, and a relaxing atmosphere. We absolutely loved sitting outside and applaud the resourcefulness in the decor. We ordered at the counter, paid and the items were brought out to us. We had: Rosehip tea pot to share Shahmaran Latte with oatmilk Chicken Shawarma Tiny bite of baklava (~$35 for all of it) All of it was delicious. The tea was absolutely lovely, so much so that I vowed then to come back immediately (and did!). The coffee was fantastic and the cups they're served in feel nice on the hand. The presentation of the items made it feel like an experience, to sit and drink our tea calmly, and enjoy our conversation. The owner checked on us to make sure all was well, and made us feel welcome. She mentioned they haven't been open long, but I have a feeling they'll be here for time to come. I will continue to come here as it is my most local coffee shop, and invite you all to check it out. read more

Friendly, big space with lots of seating and the AC is always blasting so that's a plus Their coffee is PERFECT (specifically their special oatmilk latte), and their waffles are so fluffy and warm every time. Their chicken shwarma and chicken roll are the perfect portion and are full of flavor. There's still much of the menu I have not tried but best believe I will and update my review. It's a great location to hang out or study with an outdoor patio as well. 10/10 read more

I came to town for my book launch event and stopped by this place for coffee before our after-launch celebration party to take a break and reflect. This place is the perfect environment for that kind of quiet reflection. The walls are beautifully decorated, the seating area is spacious and clean, and the overall vibe feels warm and calming. The staff are very kind and welcoming, and the quiet atmosphere paired with the soft ethnic music makes it an even more peaceful place to relax and recharge. The drinks are pretty good too. read more

First time here and I really enjoyed the experience. The atmosphere is warm, calm, and aesthetically pleasing--perfect for chatting with friends, studying, or just enjoying some quiet time. It feels like a space where you can truly settle in. I tried the pistachio shake and a cheese pastry, and both were really good--comforting, flavorful, and nicely presented. Even as a first-time visit, it left a great impression. The staff were very kind, helpful, and engaged, which made the experience feel welcoming and relaxed. No pressure, just genuine hospitality. If you're looking for a café with a cozy vibe that works equally well for studying or hanging out, this is a lovely spot to check out. I'd definitely come back to try more. read more

Shahmaran Cafe - Nice atmosphere. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

The place is beautiful. Very aethstetically pleasing and I should have taken that as a warning. The coffee was bad, like 7/11 coffee bad. The coffee was so hot that even after a 15 min drive it was still upwards of 150. Use a thermometer, that's a law suit at the very least. This place has so much potential. But just because it's pretty won't excuse an expensive, terrible product read more

Came to Shahmaran Cafe for a study session and appreciated that there were plenty of seating outlets available for working. I ordered the pomegranate mojito ($7.60) but it was a bit too sweet for my taste and had an artificial flavor, so I'd rate the drink about a 2/10 personally. Since it was my first visit, I also asked about non-caffeinated drink options and felt the cashier wasn't very helpful in guiding me through the menu. The space itself was comfortable for studying but the drink and service experience were a bit underwhelming. read more

Highly impressed with the acai bowls here! The acai is more sorbet in texture and has a very delicious strong acai flavor - the fruits are all very sweet as well, there were no sour blueberries or anything. The baklava was delicious and flaky!! And the pistachio latte was AMAZING with a strong nutty flavor. I also got the banana tea, which I wouldn't recommend it had quite an artificial flavor. Service was great and outdoor seating is really nice :) read more

My coworker and I stopped by during training for a little pick-me-up and both ordered iced pistachio lattes. Unfortunately, they didn't turn out the way we were expecting.

This was such a pleasant surprise to enter when my friend invited me for a coffee here! I'd never been and I was delighted. The owner was a complete gem and the atmosphere was lovely. The decor, the fresh baklava, the Turkish coffee, it was all fantastic. I failed to tell them it was my birthday but was given a surprise freebie anyway and they were SO sweet to my friend's baby! They have high chairs! I could see myself coming here often. read more

Really cute setup. Very large space, clean, ample parking. Great customer service, they just take awhile to prepare order. They didn't have a few things on the menu, so that was a bummer, maybe on a chalkboard write what you have at that time. The acai bowl was very tasty and fresh, I'd order another from here again. The fruits were all crisp and fresh. Very satisfied. My son ordered a matcha drink, he also said it was good. read more

My daughter and I just came back from here, and had a really good experience. Right when we walked in, we were impressed by the ambience. There was a large mural on the wall depicting the moon, and a patio area that had decorative umbrellas hanging over it. Very cool atmosphere. They had some delicious looking pastries in the display window. And although they were tempting, my daughter wanted a waffle. So we ordered that. And I got an expresso for myself. Everything came out to around $17. Now my daughter is three, and i thought the waffle was just going to be something small and basic. Maybe a little on the fancy side, but nothing crazy. Yeah, nope. When the lady brought the waffle over to our table, I was in awe. This thing was huge. It was also covered in Nutella and had sliced strawberries and bananas covering the entire top of it. Easily enough to feed two people. My daughter loved it, and I even broke my morning fast to try some, it looked that good. It was also absolutely delicious. You can't get something like this at most breakfast spots. If you're a Nutella fan, you definitely won't regret ordering this. My expresso was also excellent. Definitely enough caffeine to keep me going all day. The lady behind the counter was also really nice to my daughter. She was cutting up fruit, and my daughter asked for a whole strawberry. I was going to explain to her that the strawberry wasn't for her, but the lady gave it to her anyway, which was really nice of her. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who loves coffee, unique pastries, next-level waffles, and Nutella. Times are not particularly good for small businesses right now, and places like this need the community's support to stay open. I highly recommend it. Also, for any fans of Turkish coffee, the lady told me they would start selling it there in about a month. That alone makes it worth the drive. read more
