The Book Garden is a peaceful place for book lovers. Adding more types of books and seating could make it even better.

It's good place for spending time for studying or Web designing but the only problem is there are some Islamic securities who will disturb your peace with their comments toward your hijab.
One of the best outdoor cafes in Tehran! There’s also a bookstore.
The backyard tables are the best place to spend spring and summer in Tehran if you’re an outdoorsy cafe hopper.

It is located in a nice old house with a beautiful architecture and a nice bookstore. When we went there, there were not too many clients but the service was really slow. I liked the taste of the coffee, but it was quite cold and in the menu, it was written “Thanks for not asking for a hot coffee!!!”
I believe, the coffee should be served either hot or with ice, between them, it doesn’t really make sense.
They also said that they didn’t have WiFi.

I spend quality time with my friends in the Book City cafe. The staff was friendly and I enjoyed.
A peace and nice place with kind staff...
**Brief Review:**

Roshana is a coffee and restaurant place with a bookstore with super friendly staff and a beautiful atmosphere. The food and drinks are fine but not perfect, and people usually smoke since it's an open place. It's not family-friendly, but it's a great place for a summer night. I especially liked the bookstore, and I would give the food 3 stars and the atmosphere 4 stars.

**Full Review:**

I recently visited Roshana, a coffee and restaurant place with a bookstore. I had a very pleasant experience overall, but there are a few things to keep in mind before visiting.

First, the staff at Roshana is super friendly and welcoming. They are always happy to help you choose a drink or food item, and they make sure that you have everything you need.

Second, there is usually a bit of a waiting line to get into Roshana, especially on weekends and during the summer months. However, the line moves quickly, and you won't have to wait more than 10 minutes or so.

Third, Roshana is a beautiful place. The open-air terrace is surrounded by trees and flowers, and there is a small indoor seating area as well. The bookstore is a nice touch, and it has a wide selection of books to choose from.

Fourth, the food and drinks at Roshana are fine but not perfect. I ordered the chicken sandwich and a latte, and both were good but not great. The chicken was a bit dry, and the latte could have been a bit stronger.

Fifth, Roshana is an open-air restaurant, so people usually smoke. If you don't like the smell of cigarettes, you may want to sit inside or avoid Roshana altogether.

Sixth, Roshana is not family-friendly. The smoking area and the open-air atmosphere make it a less than ideal place to bring young children.

Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Roshana. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the food and drinks were fine. I would definitely recommend Roshana to anyone looking for a place to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee or a meal on a warm summer night. Just keep in mind that there is usually a bit of a waiting line, the food is not perfect, and people usually smoke.

Here are some additional thoughts on Roshana:

* The prices at Roshana are reasonable.
* The location is convenient.
* The place is open late.
* Roshana is a great place to visit with friends or family (if they don't mind the smoke).
* It's also a great place to work on your laptop or read a book.

I hope this review is helpful!

Seeing the books first raises your adrenaline 😂😂 you want to carry all the books with you. Unfortunately, a series of not famous and special books were rarely seen.Of course, they have done almost well in the fields of philosophy books, classic poems and psychology, but not so much in the field of science. To refer and read better books, you should go to academies, for example, Academy of Medical Sciences.

The place is cozy and the bookcity has a lot of products with good cuality. The problem is the cafe which tends to change kitchen staff every month and the food is not even okay most of the times. It used to be great but they are ruining it
Great book store, very incredible, also many gift articles. I have bought a traditional persian tie. Really great place. Best wishes to Tehran ❤😇

The place for friendship talking.
In calm and nice place you can make a comfortable time and get relaxed with your best friends.
You can eat tea and coffee,
And you can eat breakfast and lunch in this place.
We eat there breakfast,
That was so delicious.
And we eat tea too.
I suggest this place for you.
Thanks from employees in this cafee.

Smile my friend.
😊🌹
They are really well mannered and surprisingly for a not so big book store, they have every title you do not expect to find anywhere out of Enghelab bookstores!

really solid and nice place , cakes were delicious and the coffees in general were alright prices were decent too , but the place is extremely crowded and you'd have to book your table before sitting and it could take an hour for your turn to come and there are so many smokers I cannot stress the amount of heavy smokers there were the place smelt like smoke and the air around there washed smoke mixed in it

Went there in May 2022 when weather was nice and outdoors sitting was pleasant at night. Nice place for meeting friends, breakfast is served from 8:30 in morning,. Dinner is fast food type, pizza and sandwiches. Also serves coffee and tea. The three times I visited there, the crowd was young and lively. Love the small pool with water fountain sound. They also have a small area where potted plants are sold as you enter the yard. My suggestion, improvement needed for mens and ladies rest rooms.

امیدوارم موندگار باشه، چون خوبه
At least 6 stars to the fantastic crew. However, majority of the guests were smoking heavily and I thought it had been an indoor smoking hotspot. I highly recommend it to the chain and heavy smokers or people who love nicotine incense. Wish all the best to them.
It's has a really beautiful garden and bookstore📚
Food is also great🤌🏻

This place is very beautiful and the attitude of their staff was great, but unfortunately the last time I went here and ordered pasta. The pasta was not of good quality and I got sick.
Great place to buy books, study, and hangout with friends. I've been there a couple dozen times and it is absolutely amazing. There are many book shops, and educational parts. There are also some restaurants. The only problems are the limited parking spaces and the fact that you have problems finding a taxi. Amazing place overall.

A heaven for book lovers, if they can afford the ever-increasing price of books. It is located in walking distance from Mirdamad metro station. There is wide range of books, including limited-edition books on rather narrow subjects. They also have music CDs and stationary.
Honestly speaking, the photos are much more beautiful than the real thing 😃once I visited the mansion for the first time I was surprised because it looks different! anyway, the cafe is nothing special, the quality and service are acceptable but doesn't expect to get very good service there. just remember you should wait for a free seat in holidays.

Great place to escape the heat of a Tehran July! So many facilities, I don't think we could explore all of them in one visit. I haven't ever been to anywhere with so many coffee shops either, (one of which was a coffee vending machine - decent and not bad at all!) The kids' bookstore was extensive, and they had a huge selection of games, toys, and gifts as well. Upstairs, the Cafe Koodak or Kids' Cafe was cute and also had toys and books for kids to play with while parents could chat, eat, have coffee or play with. Down the hall was a robotics area, then a very large fun science play area - Fekrbazia - that occupied us for quite a long time - great for kids 3 & up, and a restaurant, among other things.

I plan to visit again to check out the kids' science hall, cinema, adult bookstore, and more. Beautiful facility, although it gave a very Western feel in design, layout, and offerings (donut shop with Oreo or other junk food toppings....), but all in all a nice place for families and to walk around. Will update after second visit. :) So far so great!

Beautiful space for relaxation and visiting with friends. The garden decorations will remind you of old country homes that only exist outside of the city. There is a great bookstore in the Mansion which has an extensive inventory of rare (newer) English books as well as an impressive children’s section. Parking can be difficult, so prepare to walk a bit to get there. There is a coffee shop on the premises but we did not get a chance to try it.
Tehran book garden complex, extremely interesting architecture and environment, very kids and family friendly, lots of parking space, bookstores, cinema complex, shops and kids indoor playground, couple of cafe's.
Interesting, educational, modern and sufisticated for a family day...

A great , beauty wonderful cultural complex in capital. Suitable to make a memorial day with children. Nice design and structure, entertaining game fields and a big book shop. Don't worry about car parking there you can find a lot (free). Tehran book garden also has a cinema complex. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED :)

Supper cool place not only for book lovers but for everyone at any age to spend time indoor. Lovely interior design features. Outdoor spaces are not yet 100% complete at the time of this review but looks very promising. There are food trucks serving hot/cold drinks and small food items.
good variety of books,
polite personnel,
good design,
no parking space
