Our Story

More Than a Coffee Shop

"Diwan" — the Arabic word for a gathering place where poets, philosophers, and neighbors come together. We have worked really hard to make this the place that brings people together.

القهوة لمن يعرفها مثلي هي أن تصنعها بنفسك لا أن تأتيك على طبق

"Coffee, for those who know it like I do, is to make it yourself — not to have it brought to you on a platter."

— Mahmoud Darwish

البيت الذي تدخله القهوة لا يدخله الحزن

"A house graced by coffee is a house untouched by sorrow."

— Traditional Arab Saying

القهوة والمحبة لا تنفع معهما العجلة

"Neither coffee nor love should ever be rushed."

— Yemeni Proverb

“Ward Latte might be one of the best lattes I've ever tried. Incredibly rich but without masking the flavor of the coffee itself.”
