Crafted with Heritage, Shared Through Story

Qisa Coffee is more than a café—it’s Abdul Aziz’s vision brought to life. Rooted in tradition and fueled by dreams, Qisa blends the rich, authentic flavors of Yemeni coffee with the vibrant spirit of Peshawari culture. Every cup tells a story and invites you into a world where heritage meets hospitality.


01 | Our Coffee

At Qisa Coffee, we curate the finest beans from around the globe, with a special love for the bold, complex notes of Yemeni coffee. Each drink is carefully handcrafted by our skilled baristas, delivering both warmth and excellence in every pour. From timeless espresso classics to distinctive specialty drinks, Qisa is a home for all coffee lovers seeking quality and craft.


02 | The Meaning Behind Qisa

In both Pashto and Arabic, "Qisa" means "story"—and every detail at Qisa Coffee carries one. Our inspiration hails from Peshawar, Pakistan, where Abdul’s love for coffee was kindled amidst rickshaw rides through the storied streets of Qisa Khwani Bazaar. For centuries, travelers gathered there to exchange tales over tea and coffee. Qisa Coffee celebrates that legacy, bringing together the rich traditions of Yemen and Peshawar. The rickshaw in our logo is a tribute to that journey, welcoming everyone to share in this timeless narrative.


03 | Our New Chapter: Curtis Park

Curtis Park, Sacramento, is more than just a location—it’s a community with deep roots and a welcoming heart. Its tree-lined streets and historic charm remind us of the close-knit neighborhoods of Peshawar. As Qisa Coffee opens its doors here, we’re honored to become part of this story. Each cup we serve is an invitation to connect, share, and create new memories together.
