Recent reviews of Turkish Coffee Making-on Sand Class

  • 5/5 from Stephanie Delello, attended Aug 2026: Learning to make Turkish coffee was so informative and fun! Our instructor was funny and able to answer any questions we had!
  • 5/5 from Tom Reilly, attended Jan 2026: This was such a great experience. Supporting small business in Philly, and being immersed in a fun and important cultural experience. The facilitator was very knowledgeable and did a fantastic job of weaving the history, the ritual and the community relevance into an enriching, hands on activity. Perfect way to spend a relaxing Sunday.
  • 5/5 from Lysette Ardon, attended Oct 2025: I booked this Turkish coffee workshop for my mother-in-law’s birthday, and we had the best time! It was such a fun and unique experience — we loved learning about the culture and the tradition behind Turkish coffee. The instructor was so friendly and made everything feel relaxed and enjoyable. The coffee itself was delicious — rich, smooth, and full of flavor. It ended up being such a special way to celebrate her birthday, and we both left with big smiles (and caffeine!). Highly recommend for anyone looking for a meaningful and fun experience!
  • 5/5 from Ethan Delamarter, attended Oct 2025: Our teacher gave us some history around Turkish coffee and gave us a great experience. The Turkish delight he shared for us to have with the coffee was also “delightful” Farhad was awesome and it’s great to see someone do something they are passionate about. So fun!
  • 5/5 from Oswald Ramirez, attended Jul 2025: excellent experience with Farat would highly recommend
  • 5/5 from Desiree Johnson, attended Mar 2025: My friend (this experience was her birthday gift) and I loved this class. From the moment we entered, we felt at home and comfortable. The class went at a nice, leisurely pace and was a mix of education and hands on experience. Ferhat (my apologies if I’m spelling his name incorrectly) was an amazing instructor. He delivered the class in a way that made you feel as if he enjoyed what he was doing and enjoyed sharing it with others. A great time and I would definitely recommend to anyone considering taking this class.
