The Upstairs Bazaar.

Up the staircase by the restaurant — several small shops in one. Clothing, houseware and gifts, an Islamic bookstore and a shelf of attar perfumes.

Two floors, one corner

Climb the stairs by the restaurant — worth a long browse.

The staircase at the back of the restaurant opens onto the upstairs bazaar — a quiet, low-lit half-floor lined with hijabs and abayas, racks of thobes and keffiyehs, houseware and gifts, framed Quranic signs, an Islamic bookstore and a small shelf of attar perfumes and bakhoor.

It's part shop, part wander. Take your time, ask anything — most regulars find something they didn't know they were looking for.
