Have you tried Yemeni coffee yet? If not, it's time! If yes, you have another option in Temple Terrace. This area now has many dozen authentic halal restaurants and four Yememi coffee shops!
Where in the world was coffee first cultivated? Yemen! There coffee is known for both quality and taste. Smooth and plenty of caffeine for those that enjoy a tasty boost!
Arwa is a special name because it honors the strongest female in Yemeni history! Queen Arwa, who successfully ruled for 70 years, from 1067 to 1138. The business is majority woman owned and they chose to honor their history.
Ramla helped me select drinks for my wonderful wife. She was very informative and patient, as we chatted about the business and the decorations within. The large wooden shape in the center represents a Dragonblood Tree, which bleeds red when cut and only lives in Yemen.
I also met Yousef, who traveled from another Arwa location to train and help get the store started. We chatted about coffee and life and he offered to take my photo in the scenic part of the store. Of course, I said yes!
Life is good with unique Yemeni coffee combined with excellent Yemeni hospitality! read more
