Pretty solid ambiance, love the wood walls and the patio seating is great for a big group. Adeni chai is always a crowd pleaser and their lattes are pretty good too. I'd also recommend the affogato but maybe not so late at night :) Always buzzy on weekend nights, but a nice spot to get some work done on weekdays.

It was our first time here and it was a warm, cozy, and inviting environment. There's plenty of seating and space to sit. It can get loud with the amount of people but typical busy cafe noise levels. They have wifi available for people who need it. I think it's a really nice place to do work, with outlets and wifi! There's plenty of tables and for various sized groups. Parking is a bit difficult just because it's downtown but it's a nice place to be. We got a couple drinks and their pistachio cake. I like all their drinks, you really can't go wrong and they're flavorful and strong! The cake was moist, sweet, and made well. I recommend trying any of their pastries with a drink, it's a good balance between the flavors. Staff was very nice and accommodating, answered our questions and were patient. The space was clean, open, and busy. I would recommend for their coffees, teas, and space to work! They're open late and can accommodate various sized groups. I like this space, I wish the location provided better access but it's a good place to be.

The best coffee shop in Columbus. I love me a good Yemeni coffee shop. Amazing interior and decor. Amazing service. Good hours. The cheesecakes were divine. Lattes were amazing. A must visit for a cafe! Can't go wrong with anything honestly.

The coffee was absolutely delicious, and maybe one of the best croissants I've ever had. The atmosphere of this shop is absolutely wonderful, and the employees were very kind. Can't recommend enough.

Hands down the most delicious coffee I have ever had. If you like chai, the coffee here is chai on steroids. They have standard espresso, etc., too, but the Yemeni style coffee is the theme of the menu. The ambiance is perfect and service outstanding.

Amazing! Do not pass up the opportunity to experience this place. It was my privilege and honor to sit with a good friend and enjoy everything Qahwah House had to offer. This was having coffee the way having coffee should be... not just grabbing a Java and running off as we tend to do in our busy lives. Slow down, get your friends, and go to Qahwah House. You will not regret it.

This place deserves more love! I enjoyed trying the Yemeni style coffee and pastries, and can't wait to try more. Everyone there was very helpful and welcoming. The server explained some differences between the coffee for us, which was very helpful. We ended up getting a pot of the coffee that is a mix of medium, light, and cascara with ginger and cardamon (if I remember correctly!). It was very tasty and nice to be served in a pot heated with a little tea light, so you can keep sipping on hot coffee while you chat or work or read. I'm looking forward to trying everything on the menu! We also got the honeycomb pastry which was amazing. It was certainly sweet, but not too much. The pastry itself was flavorful and smooth, even without the honey. All of the baked goods look fantastic - I can't wait to try more. The space is very beautiful, with a giant wood carving on the wall depicting the spread of coffee plants out of Yemen. However, I do agree with others that the space feels a little too big for the business. Maybe adding more cozy armchairs/couches or ways to divide up the space would help make it feel more cozy. Regardless, it is a welcome addition to downtown, and I am looking forward to returning.

Huge space, plenty of seating, they must get a great constant flow of foot traffic from Franklin University and Grant Hospital just around the corner. The four gentlemen manning the store when I stopped in - just after five on a Friday evening - we're great. One did most the talking at first, he's originally from Jordan, moved to Dearborn, MI and helped start the original Qahwah. Brilliant move, this stuff is LEGIT. I'm not a coffee gal, so I immediately scanned their menu for other authentic drink options: Adeni Chai and Yemeni Chai. The gentleman knew what he was talking about, I'll tell you that much. He explained the difference - Adeni is with milk and the spices added then "cooked" (forgot to look if this is aka "steam"); the Yemeni Chai has no milk and is much more like tea (I'm assuming this one has less of a bold flavor since it is water based, but that's a guess). I tried their Adeni. Verdict: A-Fluffin-Mazing, hands down. Incredible. In fact, I can't even think of an appropriate word to express my taste buds' sheer adulation! Seriously, I am in awe of the flavors my tongue experiences this eve. Clearly, in case you need written proof, I now declare this Adeni Chai to be my new first choice for liquid enjoyment. By far! Originally started in Detroit, this one the first in Ohio, I'm sure as heck elated another Yemeni spot is now added to the list here in Columbus - bonus points that their Adeni chai is outta this world!

This is a new coffee shop on East Main Street. It's a big space but friendly; lots of students seem to be here. Really good pastries and Yemen Premium Organic Coffee. There's "Yemeni Style" coffee and tea, Turkish Dark Roast, Arabic Light Roast, and Expresso. I got a chocolate croissant. DELICIOUS!! You order at the counter and the food is brought to you and those providing service are knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend this business!!

Got to check Qahwar House yesterday for their grand opening! The service was great! It was very spacious! I loved the pistachio iced latte and their hot honey comb dessert was so good! I highly recommend those two! They have a rooftop patio! They said it should be opened next week. There is a parking lot across the street $3 (I believe) or you can pay for street parking on the Columbus app.
