The Brazilian Café (Arabic: مقهى البرازيلية) was an old well-known coffeehouse in Baghdad, Iraq, that was notable for its European style and significant artistic legacy.

Notably, a young Jawad Seleem wrote in his memoirs after meeting Polish artists in the coffeehouse "Now I know color, now I know drawing.

Visitors of the café, including its founders Abd al-Wahhab al-Bayati, Kazem Jawad, Rushdi al-Amil, and Nizar Abbas, applied for a license to form the union and help in its establishment.

Following the arrest of artist Hussein Mardan by the police due to pictures of his controversial poetic collection "Nude Poems" resurfaced,[7] many Iraqi writers have been dismissed from their jobs.

[citation needed] After the Iraq War, the Brazilian Café closed its doors similar to many Baghdadi coffeehouses, its building was turned into a commercial store for selling fabrics.
