This Middle Eastern coffee shop was founded in 2017 by Ibrahim Alhasbani, whose family has been in the coffee farming business for eight generations. His goal in opening this business was to "provide the highest quality coffee and to bridge communities by sharing [his] own Yemeni culture," according to Qahwah House's website.
The menu of this new spot will consist of everyone's favorite trio: coffee, tea, and pastries. Montclarians can look forward to signature creations like Sana'ani Coffee, a medium roast coffee made with cardamom, a Middle Eastern spice, and Adeni Chai, a Yemeni black tea mixed with cardamom, nutmeg, and milk. For those who like their coffee brewed at home, Qahwah House will also provide retail coffee bags for purchase. To pair with a caffeinated drink, patrons will also find authentic baked goods on the menu, like the Khaliat Alnahl, a butter and cheese-filled roll topped with drizzled honey.
