Nice European vibe and we love the Spanish coffee with a little vanilla made a little sweeter. Our muffin was great too, and it's a really unique, nice cafe.

Instantly felt like I was transported to a different place at Finjani cafe! They specialize in yemini tea, coffee, and other middle eastern desserts. They boil the tea and coffee in a pot after you order so it is freshly made. The adeni tea was a milky black tea and had a strong taste of finjan spices. The mofawar coffee had cardamom and cream-- if you like lattes then you would like this one. The worker explained how yemini coffee usually has milk and honey in it so the flavors are very mild and creamy. The desserts are also delicious! They had a very small selection of savory treats like the spinach pastry, which had dried spinach in a flat bread. They also have a lamb filled savory pastry. The specialty crepe was very decadent, with strawberry and banana wrapped in a long layered crepe and topped with chocolate, lotus sauce, and a lotus biscuit. It's the perfect dessert if you have a sweet tooth! The rose cake was very refreshing Turkish style cake. It is soaked in a milky syrup and topped with light whipped cream. The flavor was very mild and it wasn't too sweet so it's definitely a cake anyone could enjoy! They had lots of indoor seating with middle eastern music playing to set the ambiance. Since they are open until 11pm, it is a fun place to visit with friends and it did get busier around 8-9pm. The workers were all very friendly and efficient as well.

It was my first time here and it looked like they just opened recently. The cafe is beautiful and so welcoming. There's plenty of parking outside and a decent amount of various seating inside.I got their Adeni tea in a medium pot ($10), Bee Bites ($4), and a Pistachio cake ($6.67). All of it was absolutely delicious and made well. I really enjoyed their tea, paired with the sweet pastries they offer. I really liked the Bee Bites because they warm it up and drizzle it with honey. The pistachio cake is moist and so flavorful. The Adeni tea was smooth, sweet, and creamy. I enjoyed all of it and would recommend everything.Staff was very very nice and so accommodating! I felt like they cared about their customers and prioritized each customer.I would recommend this cafe for a sweet treat, quality drinks, small groups, and casual hangouts! I will be back to try other drinks and pastries, they all looked delicious.

This is my third Yemeni cafe in the Columbus area and I have to say that it is my new number one pick. The inside is very nicely decorated and cozy but plenty of seating, and even has hand-painted art on the wall. The drinks are made in Middle Eastern-looking cookware, which makes the drinks taste even more special. All of the food looks amazing, hopefully, I can keep coming here to try it all. I tried both the Finjani latte and Qishr tea and both were extremely flavorful. To eat, I got a rose cake and pistachio cake. Start the symphony. I thought they looked good in photos but my mind was blown by how good they were. The Service wasn't bad. It was a man, with what I'm guessing was his son at the register and someone in the back. This cafe needs more staffing because beyond the register there was no service. Customers didn't feel like cleaning after themselves and multiple tables had trays on them. All of the attention was focused on the newly arriving customers, so nobody was able to clean the tables. If this place ever got really busy I can see them running into issues regarding cleaning and dishes. I write this not as a negative aspect but to make the owner aware. At no fault to the cafe, this place is also unfortunately located next to a BMV so parking directly in front can be limited and there can be a line of people standing in front of the cafe.
