What's On in Erbil
1 / 1
Erbil has a genuinely impressive café culture — going to a café is as normal here as going to a restaurant, and many people spend entire evenings in one. The city is famous for its themed concept cafés, including the Bus Café (set inside a converted double-decker London bus), the Plane Café, and various car-themed and vintage-styled venues. Alongside the novelty spots, a growing specialty coffee scene has taken hold in areas like Gulan Street, Ankawa, and around the Citadel, with many modern cafés serving quality espresso, cold brew, and international-style drinks. Almost all cafés also serve hookah. Most are open late — midnight is standard, with many staying open until 1–2am. This page lists the best cafés and coffee events in Erbil right now, updated daily.
