Caramel Tres Leches Cake: Ethiopia is where wild coffee plants originated on our planet, but Yemen…read moreis where coffee was first harvested, roasted, and brewed back in the 15th century. Coffee is now ubiquitous with daily life in America, which brings me to Qamaria Coffee. Hatem and Munif are two Yemeni entrepreneurs with a passion for Yemeni Coffee and the joint goal of wanting to share it with the world. They founded Qamaria Coffee in 2019 to accomplish this task and in January 2024, they opened a location near Milwaukee in Greenfield, WI. Qamaria offers a variety of dessert options, including a Chocolate Tres Leches, Pistachio Tres Leches, and Caramel Tres Leches cakes. I went with the caramel version, which is described by the cafe as "A decadent caramel treat inspired by tres leches cake, creamy, sweet, and irresistibly smooth". If you've never had Tres Leches Cake, it's a light sponge cake soaked in three types of milk (evaporated, condensed, and whole) that's popular in Latin America. The cake originated in Nicaragua during the 19th century, so on first glance it's not exactly a Yemeni dessert. Doing some research, Middle Eastern variations exist that feature cardamom or rose water and some Qamaria locations do have a Rose Tres Leches. It's fine that the Greenfield location did not have that variety as I honestly would have got the caramel version anyway. My slice was perfectly moist as there was plenty of milk soaked in, but not so much that it made a mess or compromised the structure of the cake. The bottom layer was soft and Tiramisu-like in texture, while the cream on top was rich and thick. Personally, I found the caramel flavor to be mild, but delicious. As it is served chilled, it paired nicely with a hot cup of coffee (which they have a plethora of options to choose from). Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews

The space is bright and elegant, adorned with beautiful decor and murals. Plus, they even have a separate prayer room, making it perfect for community gatherings. Best part? It's the most affordable Arabic coffee place I've found so far! Staff were very attentive and friendly! I will be back soon.

It kind of sticks out as there are houses and apartments all around, parking lots is a good size and there is a good amount of tables outside. Inside are more tables and a wall of bags of coffee for sale. Inside and outside are lots of seats but we were talking and wish they had some comfy chairs to sit in and chat. The menu features a good amount of options for different coffee and tea drinks with various syrups and extras. There are a couple of seasonal type specials too. There is a small bakery case with treats from Beans n Cream in Madison, but there isn't much food otherwise. A couple of Kind and Cliff Bars. There is a basket for food pantry donations as well and a local business bulletin board. When we stopped in shortly after 8am on a Saturday morning there was a steady flow of people. The line moves pretty quick and our order was ready in a short amount of time. I got an iced chai latte and my husband got a London fog latte and a breakfast scone. The scone was alright, filled with classic breakfast flavors, but not our favorite. The staff were great in explaining where the bakery items come from and so friendly. I do wish they had some other food items available but for coffee/tea, it's a great stop! Overall a good coffee shop but I wouldn't really stop in for more than that. I would stop again for a drink!

This time we slated enough time to sit down and relax for a while before having to start the day. Everything from last year was still here - including the great food and service. My wife (g-free due to Celiac) tried their Mini Banana Bread Loaf and loved it - with no adverse reactions! Their specialty espresso drinks were again excellent (Blarney Stone Latte, and a Caramel Macchiato). ORIGINAL GOOGLE REVIEW from MARCH 2024: A very nice and uniquely decorated local coffee joint. Found them this year while in town appraising for the Destination Imagination Sectional Tournament. Needed to be on-site by 06:30 on a Saturday, so I appreciated that they were open early! Decided to come in vs the drive-through option. Nice decor that looks like a cross between a Flea Market and an Antique store. I appreciate places that don't try to look like "the other guys." Very warm and intriguing. A visual feast for those of us prone to adult A.D.D.! Had places allowing small groups to sit and enjoy if they wished. As a first-timer, I greatly appreciated the online ordering option, as we were just a tad behind schedule and coming in from Bluemound in Brookfield. Was easy to navigate their site on my phone. Arrived 10 minutes earlier than expected. Was easy to locate via GPS. Inside, the staff were exceptionally friendly. Had some conversation, my (delectable!) white mocha decaf, and was on my way before my original arrival time. A nice selection of coffee shop eats are available.

What I don't like so much is the fact that there is no foyer at the entrance. When the front door opens, and if you are seated nearby, you get a blast of cold air. Not sure what they can do about that, given the fact that they are part of a strip mall.

I recently discovered Broad Street in Greendale which is just darling in every way. When I saw…read morethere was a cute little coffee shop on Broad, I immediately made note to try it! We stopped by on a Saturday morning. I ordered one of their ultimate breakfast sandwiches that are basically a build your own format. I got mine with turkey, egg, and cheddar on a rosemary cheddar scone. For my coffee, I got one of their seasonal specialty lattes. The breakfast sandwich was really tasty. The cheddar scone really made the whole thing so wonderfully flavorful. The latte for me wasn't my favorite. I was able to drink it but the espresso was bitter and it was over-steamed (way too hot and watery). The service was incredibly slow. It definitely wasn't a situation where they were overly busy and overwhelmed as there was no line. The service was just incredibly sluggish. We didn't have plans and had planned to enjoy our coffee and sandwich there, but even given that fact, the wait was excessive. So, a bit of a mixed bag. But, if you drop by--highly recommend the breakfast sandwich!

Adorable place with wonderful ambience. I agree that the staff does not seem very friendly…read more Most of the food was pretty good. My sister and I both had soup and it wasn't very hot. All four of us had greens with a vinaigrette dressing that came with our sandwiches. To me the vinaigrette was just OK, however, I ate my entire salad because I really wanted the vegetables. My husband tasted his and didn't eat anymore. He thought it was gross. I would suggest they offer the vinaigrette and have another kind of dressing as an option. As someone else said, I ordered a glass of water, and was taken aback when I was given bottled water and charged for it. I routinely order ice water at most places I eat at and don't get charged. I do think the wait staff should tell you that they only have bottled water. I was admiring the baked goods and decided to get a fruit tart. As someone else said, there are no prices on the items. I was pretty shocked when she told me that will be $9.98. I was expecting five or six dollars for the size of the item. It was fun to go there and try them out one time, but I'm not going to go out of my way to go back.

We went for dinner at Dia After Dark around 7:30, and easily found a spot. The space is bright and vibrant with plenty of creative seating, including a nook outfitted with a large screen television. Our server, Nicole, was sweet, helpful and attentive. For start we had the calamari and guacamole and chips. The spicy garlic aioli served with the calamari was incredibly flavorful. Definitely spicey, but not overwhelming so. The guacamole was fresh, made with nice sized pieces of tomato and onion, and avocados that were not overly smashed. For dinner, I had the Ceviche Flight, which showcased Salvadoran, Peruvian & Mexican style ceviches. The citrus and herb bases for all three were delightfully zesty, joined with tender seafood, crisp vegetables and firm avocados. I'd recommend eating tortilla chips in between dishes to help balance out the acidity. Dia has great food, great service and a lot of soul.
