Our Story

Coffee was born in these mountains. We bring it home.

Alwadi Coffee begins in the terraced valleys of Yemen, where coffee has been cultivated for more than five centuries. Each harvest is hand-picked, sun-dried on rooftops, and sorted by families who have tended these slopes for generations.

We carry that care into everything we pour. Our roastery and café are a place to slow down — to taste the fruit, the spice, and the history in every cup, and to share the warmth of Yemeni hospitality.

ضيافة ḍiyāfa, the Yemeni art of hospitality, in every cup.

  • Just tried Alwadi's White Coffee Light Roast with cream, cardamom, cinnamon, and ginger for the first time—and wow, what a revelation! As a complete newbie to white coffee, I was blown away by the smooth, velvety espresso base perfectly balanced with creamy richness and those warm, aromatic spices. The light roast brought subtle nutty notes, while the cardamom added exotic flair, cinnamon brought cozy sweetness, and ginger gave a gentle zing—everything harmonized without overpowering. Served hot- it stayed warm and inviting sip after sip. Service was warm and welcoming too. This is my new obsession—thank you, Alwadi, for an unforgettable intro! Must-try for sure.

  • I do have to give credit to the amazing staff and amazing atmosphere and the Arabic music playing in the background. However their coffee needs a little bit of work because both of the times I got lattes there they were bitter and no flavour or sweetness. I got a Matcha there once around November or Decemberish when they had all the Christmas flavours and I got a Christmas Matcha that was pretty good. However, the desserts are amazing as well, especially the Dubai chocolate cheesecake thingy they had.

  • Alwadi Coffee Shop in Plymouth is the perfect pit stop! We refreshed and recharged with their delicious Yemeni tea, fruity refreshers, and fresh baked treats. Cozy, welcoming, and just what you need before hitting the highway. Highly recommend! Very decent pricing and super comfy ambiance.
