Muslims of the World is a beautiful cafe, with a wide variety of tasty specialty coffees and pastries. The inside is ethnically decorated, while they also have some soft Middle Eastern music playing in the background. This cafe also features a prayer rug, behind a private wall, this is a nice touch for certain believers, and I'm sure is appreciated by many. We got coffees and an assortment of sweet treats. I got the Creme Brew Latte. This is one of the best lattes I've had all season. It is lightly vanilla flavored, but ultra creamy and plush. I genuinely enjoyed each sip. We got a Date Cookie, Dubai Chocolate and a Tiramisu Tres Leches. The Date Cookie was soft, with date in the center and crushed pistachios on the outside. This was rich and delectable. The Dubai Chocolate wasn't a favorite, it had a strange crunchy texture and was very sweet. The Tiramisu Tres Leche was exactly what it sounds like. That super, super fluffy, creamy, dreamy Tres Leche that's combined with coffee and chocolate! This is addictively good! We had a great first experience at MOTW, I cannot wait to return!

This was some good coffee!…read more This was our first stop off the train from NYC. We needed a pick me up and energy for that infamous food crawl we were about to get into. So thankful it was in the quiet and quaint neighborhood of New Haven. Such a beautiful area. Very close to all the spots I had bookmarked. Cool coffee shop I gotta say. Spacious and clean. Just the actual vibe alone was relaxing. This is one of those locations where you can actually come sit and not be bothered. Few people inside were working on their laptops, some were just conversing with their friends. The barista was super friendly and worked fast. One thing I noticed and was wowed on was they serve wine as well. I mean how cool is that. Felt like I was at France for a minute, where the cafes serve coffee, tea and qwasonts during the day, and cocktails at night. Very chill. Can't thank them enough for how clean the bathroom was as well. All in all great coffee and service.

This place is definitely a grab and go coffee shop since there is only 1 bar stool to sit inside and it's so small. Just enough room to walk in and order.

I got my usual iced vanilla latte and it was really sweet. I honestly would get it again or come here again but glad I tried it!

There were packaged items,hot items and cold items as well. I ordered a honey lavender macchiato and it was absolutely delicious. They took my order and then called me when it was ready. It was a little bit loud in there so I didn't head her call my name but it was still hot when I went and checked to see if she called me. That was not her fault. I could have stayed closer. You need a code for the restroom and there is only one single stall. The code is on the bottom of your receipt. I really like that each thing lists ingredients and calories. I love when places do that!

They have an amazing selection of books; old and new; they also have puzzles, mini science experiments, and so many other cool activities for yourself or to do with your kids which I really enjoy. Their coffee and food is pretty good - but the only thing I do not like is the volume of the noise inside. Between everyone talking and the appliances.. you can't hear yourself think. So if noise isn't a bother to you- then i would absolutely recommend coming here I have one place for that needed quiet time and then here for those more vibrant days.

And now that I know, I can't wait to return. I met a friend for a morning meeting here on a rainy day and this was the perfect cozy atmosphere to enjoy espresso and friendship. We opted for a flat white and macchiato. The staff was extremely welcoming and made sure we understood that they make an authentic macchiato, not the commercialized version which gave us a chuckle! The macchiato was perfectly crafted as well. as the flat white, complete with gorgeous latte art on top. I was expecting great coffee, which they delivered. What surprised me was the spinach quiche. I wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary, but I've basically been dreaming about this quiche since I've had it. Light and fluffy, it more closely resembles an egg bite/sous vide egg bite since it does not have a traditional quiche crust. However, it was fantastic with great spinach flavor and a buttery and cheesy finish. DROOL. The space is so inviting, clean, cozy with plenty of different options for seating; from intimate nooks, to upholstered chairs and couches, to plain wooden chairs, there's something for every comfort level. I cannot wait to come back here with my laptop to get some work done, and will definitely have more coffee dates here!

The cheese pull I wish I would have gotten a picture of. Along with the panini came a unique salad it was well chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, (another veggie or fruit was in there but I could not tell what is was) and a garlic oil.

All of the food arrived cold, and our table was initially given the wrong order. After it had already been handled, the staff took it back and served it to another table, which raised serious concerns about hygiene. My cappuccino was also served cold, and the coffee itself was very acidic and not enjoyable. Instead of making a new one, they poured it into another cup and reheated it with the steaming wand--even though I had already taken a sip. That felt unsanitary and unprofessional. Overall, there were multiple issues that suggest poor food handling practices. I wouldn't return.
