Matari Coffee Co. Peoria is a coffee shop in Peoria, IL, serving specialty-grade Yemeni coffee along with pastries and other cafe fare. The Peoria location sits inside a broader brand that roasts and brews its own beans, drawing on coffee traditions traced back to 15th-century Yemen and the Bani Matar growing region west of Sana'a. The menu spans hot espresso drinks, iced beverages, matcha, refreshers, mojitos, frappes, and a small set of signature Yemeni preparations including Turkish, San'ani, and Mofawar, the last a medium roast served with cardamom and cream. Masala chai, white mocha, pistachio frappes, and a mango dragon fruit refresher round out the lineup. The shop holds a 5.00 rating based on customer reviews.
The Peoria location is part of a growing franchise built around handpicked, roasted, and brewed Yemeni coffee, with the company's headquarters in Romulus, Michigan. The brand's backstory connects its current work to the earliest recorded coffee culture in Yemen's mountain highlands, where high-altitude growing conditions produce what the company considers among the finest varieties of Yemeni coffee. Beyond coffee, the menu includes sweets, baked goods, and non-coffee options such as matcha and mojitos, giving the cafe a wider draw than a traditional espresso bar.
The shop is located on W Willow Knolls Drive, about 0.3 miles from West War Memorial Drive. Creighton Woods Park is roughly 0.6 miles away, and Lake Lynnhurst sits about 0.7 miles from the location. Kellogg Golf Course and the Golf Learning Center are both within roughly a mile, and Ridgeview Elementary School is nearby as well.
