Café entertainment in Qatar

  1. A

    Eshairiq Coffeehouse

    On the eastern (sea-facing) edge of the souq, this traditional roof-top coffeehouse is welcoming of all-comers. Stretched on a divan under the stars, sipping mint tea and listening to the muezzin call prayers at dusk while the city lights sparkle into life, is the quintessential Arabic experience.

  2. B

    Al-Baraha Majlis

    There is nothing to stop a male visitor sitting on a divan on the pavement or pulling up a chair in front of the TV inside this simple coffeehouse and smoking a sheesha with the locals. Women may not receive quite the same reception.
