Madinah with children
Short stops, shade at midday and something for children in every part of the day.
About
In Al-Qiblatain, where calm meets the spirit of the place, Etruh brings together tea, Saudi coffee and local baked goods, with flavours inspired by Madinah’s heritage.
Its interior revives authentic Madini details, in a quiet setting that suits families and visitors.
Being close to Qiblatain Mosque gives it a character of its own: authentic, and quietly hospitable.
What it offers
Etruh is a Madinah café named after the fragrant herb locals add to their tea. Its interiors recall the city's old houses, and it serves traditional hot drinks such as mint tea with lemongrass and rose alongside desserts like date cheesecake. Its Qiblatain branch opened beside Masjid Al-Qiblatain in mid-2025.
