Roba: Coffee N’ News is probably our favorite coffee bar. You can just go there for hours, drink coffee, read, and work, and no one will ever bother you. You can get refills, listen to Pink Floyd/Pearl Jam and use their wi-fi.
My only problem with it is that it tends to hold smoke in, and no matter how long you stay, you always leave stinking like cigarettes. On warmer days, that’s not a problem, because their outside area is absolutely fantastic.

Final verdict: Fantastic for a laid-back cup of coffee, complete with good music, staff that doesn’t pester you, and good coffee.

Total:

Location: Jabal Amman, Rainbow Street
Reservations: no
Phone: no idea
Recommended Item: Hazelnut coffee
Average Price: 5 JDs for two cups of coffee

    it used to be nice when only a few people knew about it 2.5 years ago. the new coldplay album had just come out and the number of people inside were just enough to fill most of the seats without turning anyone away.

    now its an “it place” for west ammanis, and it kinda feels polluted and cliche.

    quite a loss for me.

    Five JDs paid in cash – or money order – to anyone who knows what the trivial emoticon – d b – stands for

    Nas,
    You have earned the 5 JDs and a big thank you on top.
    Can you please try to explain how did you manage to decipher the hieroglygphics!! Seiously was it that hard…?

    hmm, i knew what it was the second i saw it and before you even threw down the gauntlet :-D

    now, getting down to business:

    i would like the payment as 5 single Jordanian Dinars in unmarked bills, all issued by the Central Bank of Jordan in 2001, delivered to me on either a unicorn or a clown riding a unicycle backwards.

    if this isn’t possible…then feel free to deposit the 5jds in any collection box for the King Hussein Cancer Center, located at the checkout counter of any major supermarket.

    i suspect you’re a man of your word but if you need the motivation then feel free to get roba to post some photographic evidence of the event.

    otherwise, remember, Allah, Jesus and Yahweh are watching you.
