A coffee shop open until 12am? What a great place for students needing to get their work done and having amazing caffeinated beverages to help fuel us! First things first, I love the layout of the coffee shop! The high ceilings allow you to feel like you're not being suffocated with your assignments (lol), lots of comfortable sitting areas with plugs, and the best part is that it's well lit so it keeps you awake! My favorite go-to drink is the iced Adeni Chai (blackj tea with yemeni spices and cream) with cold foam. Warning! This drink is highly caffeinated. I made the mistake of drinking a 16 oz past 8pm and I was awake til 2am! I've tried their Yemeni Latte, it wasn't my personal favorite because of the many spices-- but I've talked to others and for some it's their drink of choice. The mango arabia is the one for you if you like your drinks sweet. I'm a creature of habit, so I will be sticking to the Adeni Chai! They also have a variety of milk cakes and a variety of savory goods. This coffee shop has the fuel you need to get your work done!

Milyar Cafe is a new cafe that opened 4-5 months ago. Street parking mostly. The interior is spacious and roomy. House music playing throughout the cafe. Good to sit and relax with friends. The service was welcoming, nice and friendly. She was sweet. Unfortunately, they were out of the Iced Adeni Chai: Yemeni black tea with Yemeni spices and cream. So, I asked what they recommended so I got the Iced Pistachio Latte. Which was flavorful and had that nice caffeine kick. Rose Milk Cake - flavorful and delicious. Support your local business.

This is very spacious and newly opened coffee place with high ceilings and comfy chairs. The prices are average, staff is friendly. They have really good coffee machine. The coffee was a little too sweet for my taste, I tried pistachio latte. I also ordered some pastry with the spinach and cheese, but it was a bit dry and not tasty. Baklava, on the other hand, was really good and I loved the honey aftertaste. There is a lot of street parking spaces around the building. There are gender neutral restrooms inside.

Tasteful decor and a comfortable ferling inside with excellent friendly staff. Unfortunately, there is no coffee prepared with the traditional Yemeni coffee pot. One of the servers showed me a beautiful coffee pot behind counter, which they don't yet use. I would love to return when they prepare the coffee the traditional Yemeni way. I'm sure to give them 5 stars then, because that coffee is so delicious. The Arabian Qahwah (coffee) I had was good. Made with ginger and other spices.

Huge fan of this place already! Walked in for the first time and was really impressed by the interior of the café. It's bright and opening and the marble and gold accents were really pretty and made you feel like you were in a spacious place. I ordered one of their specialty drinks, Iced Adeni Chai" sweetened with honey and it was delicious! It was aromatic, light, and refreshing! I was also very tempted to order their "Cloud 9 Matcha" but I'll grab that next time! Definitely wanted my first taste to be what they're known for! If you order some of their pastries and treats and sit in, please return the dishes to the counter if you can, I saw lots of customers do this and I think this is the norm here (and it's respectful soo doesn't hurt to practice that either!) With that said, I think this place is fairly new so drinks might take a while to receive in hand as their baristas are working in orders. So I would say this is a nice sit down place to study or catch up with friends. If you're in a rush, I would suggest letting them know ahead of time at the counter as I saw lots of people waiting by the pick up counter for their drinks. But overall, would absolutely come back here as my study spot where I have more time in the day.

This cafe is just awesome . It gives the feeling as if you are somewhere in Middle East . The interior of the cafe looks extremely posh ! We reached there at 11 pm as we were craving for some desserts and this place didn't disappoint at all . One good thing is it is open till midnight which makes it easier for people like us who get these late night cravings. There are plenty of street parking and the area looked very safe . We were a bunch of friends and we stayed there till pretty late and were also standing and taking outside the cafe till 12:30 am but we felt very safe . We were 4 people but we decided to get 3 cakes as the cake pieces looked big and we were there just to satisfy our craving and were not hungry . Taste of everything we tried was amazing. We took a rose milk cake , pistachio milk cake and dubai chocolate milk cake . I would give 100/10 if I can for the taste, ambience , service . Everything was top notch . Will visit again soon and I highly recommend this place .

Came here to catch up with a friend on a weekday afternoon. She had bookmarked this place for a while. The shop is spacious. There's plenty of parking on the streets outside as it is located in the suburbs in Santa Clara. There was an assortment of people studying, working, solo, and chatting with friends. I ate before coming, but I wish I didn't once I saw the array of foods at the counter. The staff was friendly. I got the Yemeni latte. It came out fast. It was not too sweet and had a nice flavor! I noticed they had many offerings, even matcha. I'd love to try something new next time. The cleanliness could be better in terms of cleaning up after guests have left. There was a lot of trash and stains on the tables. Besides that, I would look forward to my next visit at Milyar!

So il rate on few things. First off we got a few drinksto test. Everybody agreed they were watered down flavors. We got pistachio latte, oat latte, shaken and cinnamon brown sugar latte, caramel machiatto. They felt watered down. Also the straws r so flimsy they bend when you need to stir the latte. Also its so loud and theres kids just playing and screaming. Spoke to another person who sat next to us and they said its always like this. The only benefit is that this place is close to masjid an noor. This is just another overpriced coffee spot lol. Service was good, staff luckily told the parents when somebody complained about the loud kids this time. Sure no long line at this time around 8:30pm on weekend, but flavor doesnt hit.

After a long day we decided to stop for some coffee before driving more then 2 hours back home. My sister loves Yemeni coffee so this place was perfect . Walking in it was spacious and beautiful inside. They had beautiful lights on the ceilings, very comfy chairs. Everything was decorated pretty elegant with gold tints of color pop up here and there . The walls also had beautiful art work . They have calm music playing in the background. They have board games for the families to play . My kiddos and I played uno well waiting for our drinks . My sister got the Mufawaar drink it was my favorite she let me try and it was so delicious. I had the Yemeni Latte it was good with lots of spices. My kiddos got dragon, fruit, lemonade, and the hot chocolate. They loved their drinks. They said they were delicious. My son I got the hot chocolate he said it's the best chocolate he has ever tried. They had so many milk cakes for purchase and so many different flavors of them. I ended up getting the rose milk cake. It was so good since I'm Mexican, it taste just like a 3 leches cake for me. I have to say I really enjoy the milk cakes and I like that I could go back and try different flavors next time. There was a young man that took our orders on the counter, and he was very polite and attentive . After we ordered, they gave us these buzzers that alerted us when our orders were ready. I really like that idea because there's no yelling your name out loud. It was a very relaxing place . On top of that our buzzers didn't even go off. The young man was so kind to bring us our stuff directly to our table. I'm assuming they might do that when they're not that busy. Overall, we had a great time. The coffee was really delicious. I would definitely go back.
