I came by to try them on a Saturday afternoon. I ordered the rose latte, iced, 16oz, and pistachio latte, iced, 16oz. It was $7.75 for each of these drinks, no price difference for hot vs. iced. The cafe is pretty large inside with beautiful gold accents and a variety of seating options. It took over 10 mins for drinks, this might've been due to both some people having ordered ahead of me and also could possibly indicate the process of making the drinks took some time. I found the rose flavor comes through better and it gave the rose latte a really nice floral tint. But for the pistachio latte, I couldn't really taste the latte over the coffee, as someone who's very sensitive to the taste of coffee, so I preferred the rose latte over the pistachio.

I just discovered a fantastic coffee spot in Berkeley! The atmosphere is quiet, and the interior is beautifully designed. My friend and I tried a few different teas and sampled various pastries--everything was delicious. It's a perfect place if you're looking for great Middle Eastern pastries, a cozy spot to work on your laptop, meet up for a coffee break, or simply relax and enjoy a good cup of coffee. Highly recommend!

What is going on with this explosion of Yemeni cafes in the bay? I mean I won't complain - I love milk cakes, large pots of caffeine, and non alcoholic spots open late-ish. If you've been to another Yemeni cafe, Milyar is pretty similar, but the decor/color scheme feels more fancy, and the space is huge. It does feel a bit cold and less cozy than other Yemeni cafes, but maybe that was just because it was pretty empty when I visited a year ago? Or maybe that's just how I was feeling.

Came here for a quick breakfast pastry and coffee and ended up coming back every day we were in Oakland. The black coffee was delicious - classic but offering deep flavor. I also had a lavender latte with oat milk. They don't list alternative milks on their menu but they do have them! I really loved the spiced tea we got as well - I can't remember exactly what it was called but it had cardamom and cinnamon and was so perfectly cozy for a winter morning. In addition to drinks, we got baklava (of course) and another version of baklava that was less flaky/crunchy - I prefer the classic baklava. I thought the layers of the pastry offered amazing crunchy texture. The pistachio was generous. Finally, we got a halva to go and it was, like everything else, delicious!

Milyar came onto my radar a few months ago when I was looking for a traditional Middle Eastern cafe. It has become a near weekly staple ever since my first sip! The coffee is great; delicious and strong. Though I am partial to hot coffee, their iced drinks have been very good as well. And their sweets are amazing. The business is also decorated very beautifully, making you feel as though you are having coffee in Dubai. Looking forward to my next stop!

Such a beautiful café right at the intersection of Adeline and Alcatraz. The interior is gorgeous and the furnishings are intricate and thoughtful. Feels like a high-end café with a great open space with folks chatting and working and relaxing. I was blown away by the space and the location, particularly the lighting and comfort. Plenty of seats too. My husband and I had the Yemeni latte with honey , iced and hot. So delicious and flavorful!

OK this place wasn't on the agenda this Saturday morning. After visiting Sweet Adeline, which by the way has the most delicious pastries, I decided to check out this coffee stop on the corner of Adeline that I saw. The inside decor is phenomenal. It has furniture that one would have at their home. Very pretty, very modern and giving the feel that this place just opened up. The drink options are various -I got a Cortado. I will say I liked that the person asked me what level of sweetness I wanted with my Cortado because I'm never usually asked and typically have to add my own couple packs of raw sugar. The barista served the best Cortado I've had outside of Spain. It was delicious, frothy, and with the right amount of sweetness. Definitely looking forward to patronizing this place again.

Finding parking near the cafe is a little difficult, but manageable with the street parking. The cafe overall has a nice modern aesthetic! I ordered a rose latte with the barista, and you can tell that they really put care into every drink that they're serving out. The rose latte itself was beautiful, and had the right amount of sweetness to coffee ratio--the milk balance was just right as well. Overall great place to study with nice drinks!

Milyar Cafe opens late till 10 daily. It's genre is Yemeni sourced coffee, teas and associated pastries. Lots of indoor seating. Meticulous decor all around. Soft music in background. Quick courteous service. Paid. Food & covfefe brought to table of my choosing. Offerings: espressos, teas, covfefes, bakes, refreshers, Milyar specialities (pots of tea, covfefe). Drink: Yemeni latte (6.95) with almond milk+ -Yemeni roasted coffee beans fused with cardamon, ginger, honey, steamed milk, cinnamon. Sensational! Must sip to enjoy complexities, not a gulp & go average joe... Eats: coffee cake (4) -refrigerated cold. Was assured this was the customary method of serving. Didn't taste much of the egginess. Saffron nor cardamon nuances. Honey yes. Pairing with latte dissolved any shortcomings. Yemeni latte RULES! 4.5 stars fab covfefe/service, luxurious spread, many bakes to chose from.
