We ordered: 
• Adani Chai 
• Pistachio Latte 
• Sabaya with honey on the side The cafe interiors have good vibe. There are plenty tables to sit. They also have a reserved area that can sit 5-6 people, requires pre-booking. 
The staff is very polite and friendly. The menu is full of options and their bakery section has so much to offer as well. The drinks and food we ordered was fresh and tasty. We will revisit to explore more of their menu and to enjoy the vibe. Very glad to have found a cafe that remains open till late. Wish they had more non-sweet food options. —— Update Jan 04 2026 5/5 rating

My laptop was fully charged so it didn't matter for me, but at least by the windows, I didn't see outlets. Music was also ambient and great, perfect for getting work done. I forget the barista's names but she said her favorite is the iced pistachio latte and it was so good! It could be sweet for some people as a daily coffee drink but since I was looking for a treat, it was perfect. My friend loved hers too. We got the za'atar pita (I forget the exact name but it started with an M) and mixed cheese pastry. Great textures and complimented our drinks perfectly. Everything was so good that I got a yemeni signature latte with oat milk to-go for my boyfriend to try at home and he...
