Lonely Planet review

One of the oldest ahwa s in the city, and certainly the most famous, Fishawi's (signed El Fishawy) is still a great place to watch the world go by. Despite being swamped by foreign tourists and equally wide-eyed out-of-town Egyptians, it is a regular ahwa , serving up shai and sheesha to stallholders and shoppers alike. It's especially alluring in the early hours of the morning. Note that it closes from till about during Ramadan.
