Born from a love of
honest coffee.
Qahwa House began in 2021 when Layla and Omar Al-Rashid returned to Dubai after years training under world champion baristas in Melbourne and Copenhagen. They brought back one simple obsession: make the best cup possible, every single time.
Qahwa (قهوة) is the Arabic word for coffee — and the tradition runs deep. We honour that heritage while pushing the craft forward. Arabic cardamom spiced espresso sits beside a Kenyan natural processed through a V60, and both belong here.
We built our roastery in Dubai Design District because d3 understands that craft takes time. Our 12kg Probat roaster runs Monday to Friday — you can smell it from the street.

Every cup is a tiny work of art. Come see us in action — or follow us at @qahwahouse.
Our regulars
say it best.
“Qahwa House is my office away from office. The saffron cortado is genuinely something I've never tasted anywhere else in Dubai — and I've tried them all.”
“I was sceptical about another "specialty" café in d3, but this is the real deal. The Yemen Haraaz is exceptional — winey, complex, and worth every dirham.”
“The za'atar croissant + Desert Rose Latte combo might be the best breakfast in Dubai. The space is gorgeous too. Comes every Saturday now.”
“Not just coffee — an experience. The team knows their origins, explains the roast profile, and genuinely cares. This is what Dubai's food scene needed more of.”
