Hassan, the owner, was very welcoming. Took care of us and entertained us with stories. Taught us some Arabic and shared videos of his family. Very good food. Lovely coffee and tea. Free wifi which allowed us to get some work done while travelling. Spent about six hours at his cafe.

No prices anywhere so.. we paid 5 JOD for a strawberry shisha and two Pepsis. Maybe the locals pay even less. Nice place for chill by a shisha, recommended!

Really nice place for having shisha and tea. The locals were watching the football match and the atmosphere was really nice. The staff and owner were really nice and polite. They treated us like special guests. When my girlfriend ask for a blanket, the owner borrowed her his jacket!! We totally reccomend this place!!

Nice atmosphere and a good place to sit in the shade. Coffee more expensive than elsewhere. The largest, cheapest and best coffee is usually the takeaway stalls on the street where 2 turkish coffee and 2 bottles of water is one dinar.
