Ilham is the best barista - I had an incredible experience with Ilham, he was very polite but he mesmerized me because of the knowledge of coffee, he really knows his subject and he is very passionate about it. The experience was unbelievable. I got a present and a great reading.

Wonderful workshop with a fun group - Daryn was our workshop instructor with two other assistants and they did a wonderful job. We learned a lot about Turkish coffee making as well as general coffee history and trivia. The vibe was very friendly and fun, we laughed and enjoyed ourselves the whole time.

Great value and fun! - We had a fantastic time in this experience! Our guide was informative, funny and really made the coffee making fun. Getting to take home our own set also made for a great souvenir to remember what we did! There are lots of other classes going on (lamp making and perfume I think) in the same building which we wish we would have had time to try too!

Interesting workshop but the person leading it could have been more professional - I attended Turkish Coffee on Sand Workshop: Fortune Telling & Gift Set, and the topic was certainly interesting but workshop organization was disappointed. The workshop was originally scheduled in room 101, but it was moved to a different room without any information. The instructor did not check if any participants were waiting at the originally designated room. Additionally, not all participants were provided with the proper equipment on time. The idea behind the workshop was promising but the execution could have been much more professional. Better organization and communication from the person leading the workshop would have greatly improved the quality of the experience.

Poor service - I was the only one that turned up, the lady in charge wasn’t really interested she demanded to know where I came from how old I was and what was I doing here they may sound normal to some people but she had a harsh attitude. She left the room for most of the 1.5hrs then shoved a cup in front of me as a gift - no coffee beans. Not a tour I would recommend
