The nook house is superbly decked out, with a protracted counter and a mixture of two- and four-top tables unfold all through. There’s additionally a drive-through!

I ordered a pair coffees and a slice of cake on my go to!
The Shibam espresso options gentle roast Yemeni espresso with quishr (spiced espresso husks), cardamon, cinnamon, ginger, and cream. They’ll ask if you’d like sugar, too. I often add just a little.
The drink is heavy on the ginger, earthy, and just a little candy.
The sweetness was made up by the wealthy and moist slice of pistachio milk cake I attempted. Excellent pairing. Though I observed that in addition they have model of the cake flavored with Lotus cookies, aka Biscoff! Subsequent time…
I additionally tasted the Shibam latte, with the identical mixture of spices because the Shibam espresso, however with espresso and foamed milk.
