Stopped by Aldar Cafe during Ramadan and really appreciated that they were open late. After a long day of fasting, it was nice to find a spot that was still serving fresh food and had a welcoming atmosphere.
I ordered the dual sauce and dual meat pizza, which comes with both Alfredo and tomato sauce along with the two halal meats. The mix of the creamy Alfredo and the tangy tomato sauce actually worked really well together, and the meats were flavorful without being too heavy. Everything tasted fresh and well made. I also got a five inch cheese manakish, which was warm, soft, and had just the right amount of cheese. Simple but really satisfying.
The staff were very friendly and patient, and they offered some helpful suggestions when I was deciding what to order. The space itself was clean and had great vibes. There was a good amount of seating, so it didn’t feel cramped, and it’s the kind of place where you can sit comfortably and enjoy your food without feeling rushed.
Overall, it was a really good experience and I would definitely recommend checking it out, especially if you are looking for a late night option during Ramadan.

This place is the absolute antithesis of 7brew, Starbucks, and all the other weirdly hostile drive-through windows pretending to be coffee shops.
Food and drinks are outstanding. Atmosphere is relaxed, cozy, and unpretentious. Staff are friendly and kind. The pace of the service is leisurely, as it ought to be! No one is screaming out order names from the counter—they bring it to your table.
I highly recommend getting a pot of the Arabic coffee and spending a few hours sipping your way through it with a book—don’t worry, it won’t get cold because it’s brought out on a platter with a tea light to keep it hot.
Perfect place to read, study, hang out. Memphis is lucky to have them.

Beautiful atmosphere! A full menu and wonderful sweets. The coffee is exceptional. We had Yemen black coffee, baklava, Yemeni honeycomb bread (Khaliat al Nahl) filled with cream cheese, then topped with sesame seeds and honey syrup! Delicious ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

★★★★★ 5/5 Aldar Café – Memphis Hidden Gem! The neighborhood isn’t the best, but step inside and it’s a cozy, clean oasis with great decor and a welcoming vibe. The Yemeni coffees and teas are outstanding—rich, fresh, and perfectly brewed. Food is delicious (love the Arabic breakfast and pastries) everything tastes homemade and flavorful. Service is warm, friendly, and spot-on. Don’t let the location stop you—Aldar Café is absolutely worth it. Tremendous food, drinks, and atmosphere inside. 5 stars! Will be back often. ☕🍯

We had a great time. It’s a nice quiet cafe. Pastries and coffee were good and fairly priced.
This is a great place to study! The music and atmosphere is perfect for locking in & for couples as well.

Every time I come here, I experience great food and great service. Aldar is so cozy, but you can also bring your laptop and get some work done, too. Great place!
