My absolute favorite place to get coffee in the Chicagoland area! The employees are the best and always make sure your coffee tastes fresh and perfect every time. And if Miya is working, you already know your coffee will be made to perfection!
I will forever recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

I have gone to this location twice so far, and enjoyed both visits. Yesterday, I got a biscoff latte/chocolate mousse bear that was delicious! The male server with the head wrap was very personable & helpful if u have questions (I forget his name on the name tag–bogus!), highly recommend stopping here!

Upon arriving at the Qahwa I was greeted so kindly by who I believe is the owner and he took the time to explain to me in detail the ingredients and level of sweetness in all of their scrumptious assortment of lattes. I chose the Biscoff latte that he recommended, and boy I’m glad I took his suggestion. It had just the right amount of sweetness, it was perfect ❤️. I live on the north side of Harlem so it took me and 45 min to get there and let me tell you it was well worth drive, go try it out!

To say this place is phenomenal would be an understatement. I had the banana cream latte with almond milk and it was amazing. They don’t make it too sweet like the big chain coffee shops, you can still taste the expresso and the flavoring they use, which is how a latte should be in my opinion. They offer sweetness levels if you prefer it more sweet. Great service, friendly employees/owners, and great atmosphere. I will definitely be back on the next cheat day. I love having places like this around.

The Qahwa is a hidden gem! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The decor is modern yet cozy, perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done. I ordered a latte and a pistachio croissant — both were absolutely delicious. The coffee was smooth and flavorful, and the pastry was fresh and buttery with just the right amount of sweetness. Staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. You can tell they care about quality and customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

The individuals here were extremely helpful and patient as well as polite while I tried to figure out a coffee that I was interested in! I found this coffee shop on TikTok and I wasn’t sure what I wanted, but I knew I wanted to try it and they took the time and patience to help me figure out one that I would love! The coffee was beyond beautiful and the atmosphere was amazing. They had a giving tree in there which really warmed my heart because I don’t see that very often and I love that they want to give to people and give other people a chance to give! Ended up going with the s’mores latte that isn’t even on their menu he made it for me and not many places do that! He was more than willing to make me my own coffee that wasn’t on Their menu! The coffee was honestly a perfect Balance between not too sweet and not too overpowering with the coffee flavor it was honestly perfect. It has such a good balance. Usually, I get coffees that are way too sweet or way too coffee for it and this was the perfect balance! If you love coffee, In a good atmosphere I definitely recommend this place

I’m making this review after my second visit because that’s how I like to do reviews. Both times I have been to the coffee shop. It is very nice very clean and the atmosphere is very peaceful and relaxing. The first time I had the signature latte with the same name as the shop that was a 10 out of 10 the only thing I would do for myself personally is add more sweetness, but that is a personal preference. The second go around I did get a Spanish latte with the tiramisu top and it’s also a 10 out of 10. The coffee quality is immaculate and I have had many different type of copies from many different places And of many different cultures. I also had a Biscoff pudding cup the first time it was good and I have a tiramisu tres leches like cake this go round, which is excellent. With all that being said, I do see some of the views talk about how someone may stare or look at you, but you do have to realize that this is a mostly Arabic area and every time I have gone, everyone has been friendly so I just try to go and be respectful in other cultures spaces, but I have never felt unwelcome. I would definitely suggest trying this coffee shop because I have had great experiences both times and I am very serious about coffee and pastries and if you’re not sure about something on the menu, they are very happy to answer questions because I did have quite a few questions my first time going
