Bilqis Coffee brings Yemen's rich coffee legacy to Bay Ridge * Brooklyn Paper
Briefly

"You can find all the types of coffee in the world in Yemen, but there are some Yemeni types [of coffee] that you will not get in any other place," Salah Al-Abdali, the general manager, emphasized the uniqueness of Yemeni coffee. The café focuses on delivering exceptional flavors that reflect the heritage and agricultural expertise of Yemeni farmers.
"Yemeni coffee is very complex. You can sometimes taste the coffee from the same mountain just from east to west; the flavor is something different," Al-Abdali noted, highlighting the diverse flavor profiles influenced by the coffee's geographical origins in Yemen.
Bilqis coffee pairs perfectly with the decadent desserts on offer, including gelato, pistachio-flavored treats, and Sabaya, a traditional Yemeni flaky pastry. Arafat Tagaddin designed the café to immerse customers in Yemeni culture, complete with art that reflects the country’s rich heritage.
