This place is special! Comfy chairs, plentiful plugs, and incredible drinks. Amanda helped me out, she was incredibly sweet walking me through their numerous latte options. She even ended up making me a 16 oz even though I ordered a 12oz. My chai was soo YUMMY and definitely made with love.
Don’t hesitate to check Milyar out if you’re hoping to get some work done, catch up with some friends, or just want to enjoy some solo time! You won’t regret it! 🩷
I had high hopes for my visit, but unfortunately, it fell short. The table was dirty, with sticky coffee residues from a previous customer, and it wobbled so much that I struggled to cut my food without spilling my tea. While the Yemeni tea had a lovely aroma, it was served in a cup that was quite dirty, covered in oily smudges outside. I was too bothered to enjoy. The fork I received had bent tines like crooked teeth, which contributed to a rundown experience, especially considering how nice the exterior looked. I was with a friend, so I decided not to make a scene since it was her favorite café. On a positive note, the sweet desserts were excellent, although the savory pastries were just average.
This is first time such a fancy cafe. This Arabic cafe is so fancy that almost everything is gold plated. We rose latte and rose cake, honey cake and lavender latte. They are delicious and should definitely try.
Yemeni Latte was amazingly infused with cinnamon and other herbs. Adeni tea was good too with its strong flavour. Baklava was delectable. We also tried the pistachio milk cake (tres leches). The space is pretty spacious and ambience is good for a sit down tea/coffee. Parking around is limited.
There have been a lot of new Arab style coffee shops open in Berkeley/North Oakland and this is one is great. The coffee is very reasonably priced, and they have very many colorful Arabic pastries. The Baklava is huge! The staff are very friendly. What I enjoy the most is the location and interior. The shop is on a corner surrounded by large windows, so there is a lot of light. I love that they have seats and a counter along the window, and there are flowers out front to enjoy looking at. A great place to sit and chat. They are also open later, so this is an awesome place to work/study as well. Come check this place out.
