Sahil Çayxanası

Sahil Çayxanası lays a true tea table in Gabala: armudu glasses, jam and unhurried talk. Teahouse culture is the heart of the Azerbaijani table, and here the tradition is kept as it is: unhurried talk, the armudu glass and the heat of the samovar.

The tea set arrives with a choice of preserves — walnut, fig, sour cherry, white cherry — plus lemon, raisins and national sweets. Backgammon and domino boards are always ready.

Sahil Çayxanası is in Gabala at Centre, Gabala. Price level: ₼. Early evening is the liveliest hour; take a courtyard-side table for a long conversation.
