Very cute cafe! It's Palestinian-Syrian and you can really feel the vibes when you are here. It's very spacious and has room to work or just chill and enjoy coffee and baked goods. They have a large variety of drink options and it's super close to ASU. Everyone was so nice and sweet too, and the customer service was on point! I will be returning and love supporting a local business.
I just found my new favorite coffee spot! Walking in I saw the vibe & authenticity of the restaurant and loved it. You could smell the coffee as soon as you stepped in. The location is centrally located & has so many things to offer! From jewelry to accessories & of course plenty of coffee options with a few bites too. The service was good, there were a lot of people ahead of us and we didn't really wait that long! There was also plenty of space for sitting for both small or larger parties. I tried the date iced latte & the baklava iced coffee. We were able to get skim milk which I appreciated having a few milk alternatives there. The caramel date iced coffee was on the sweeter side & was a unique coffee that I think is worth trying! The baklava iced coffee was also sweet but slightly less than the Date, which was a nice middle ground. It also had a crunch in there maybe pistachio/nuts? Paid $9 for each of the 20oz lattes which for the size and amount- I think is very fairly priced. I also heard the chai is a must try here so that will be my next purchase next time!
Such a beautiful cafe with a unique middle Eastern feel! We came on a Sunday and it was so busy but I was impressed how quickly and efficiently the staff worked to get everyone's orders out. The service was great! My friend got the salted Carmel date latte which I tasted and it was really good. I got the strawberry acai refresher which is way better than Starbucks. We shared a chocolate pistachio croissant and it was absolutely delicious. Perfectly flakey and just enough chocolate. Beautiful atmosphere and I also liked how they had other items for sale like beautiful jewelry pieces. They were a tad pricey so maybe next time. I would definitely come back.
My new favorite coffee shop for sure!! I've been meaning to visit since they opened and it was well worth the wait. The drink menu is expansive and the baristas are wonderful. The strawberry matcha was the best one I've had. The atmosphere is also perfect and cozy to hang out and get some work done.
Pretty place to come study late at night. On crowded day, it might be challenging to find parking/seating. I'd drive past the shop first to see if there is a table. Strong wifi, good lighting, giving bookstore vibes. Fast service. Their fig matcha was good, giving just a tiny hint of fig that's not overwhelming.
I've had Laymoon Cafe on my list for a while and finally made my way in May. I arrived early, around 8:00 am and was able to find parking right in front. The staff greeted me as soon as I entered. Wow, the interior is stunning! The details are incredible. I love the mix of modern and traditional. The staff was great in helping me decide what to order. I ordered the following: Baklava latte $8 Spiced zaatar avo toast $15 Baklava $6 Everything was delicious! Though the tiramisu latte is their most popular, they use house-made syrup for the baklava latte and that's music to my ears. It wasn't too sweet either. The spiced zaatar avo toast comes with zaatar, feta, lemon, olive oil, and pomegranate seeds. The flavor was nice and light. I would have liked more avocado, especially for the $15 price tag. The baklava was phenomenal. I savored every bite.
Came here at 10pm and it was poppin! If you need a late night hang out or study this is the perfect place. It was plenty of seating inside and I love the decor. They have carpets on the ceilings and booths to sit in, perfect for photo op. Feels like I transported into the Aladdin movie. They sell jewelry and other merchandise leading up to the register. I got the caprese avocado toast. It was $12 but the portion was generous. I didn't expect for it to be that big. Also got the upside down strawberry matcha. The matcha puree is made in house. The matcha is nice and good balance of bitterness which I love. I don't like it when places sell matcha latte and you can't taste any matcha at all. So this place definitely nailed it. They also plenty of different types of coffee, so I need to come back and try that next time. The staff were really friendly as well and passionate about explaining what's in their drinks.
This cafe is so cute! There were so many tables that even though it was pretty busy when we went, we found a table no problem. Service was quick and we got our drinks within 10 minutes. We ordered a strawberry matcha and a caramelized fig & vanilla matcha. Both were yummy! The matcha isn't super strong but the fig flavor was really good so I didn't mind too much. Rating Caramelized fig matcha: 4/5
Beautiful restaurant with great drinks. Comfortable vibe and loved the diverse clientele and Palestine items for sale. Great hangout for students to study or who don't want to go to the Bars. We ordered the rose cardamom latte (delicious), mint lemonade (fantastic), and lebneh toast. Wish they had more food. The lebneh toast was good but a bit overpriced ($12) for a slice of regular toast. Will return!
We absolutely loved it here. Wonderful Baklava latte, Pistachio baklava, and Mango Passionfruit lemonade. Gorgeous interior, very beautiful. Packed on a Sunday afternoon. Lovely regional items for sale as well, mainly jewelry, soap, bags, and hair items.
Laymoon has been on my list since its grand opening, and I've been waiting for the right time to give it a visit! When you step in, you see a community of people seated all around you. There are study groups, young and older couples, families, individuals working, etc. it feels very coworking-friendly, which is super ideal to me! Gorgeous interior and furniture with middle eastern accents. You walk through some boutique and local merchandise as you find the counter to order. I ordered myself a mango guava matcha. The matcha color was PERRRRRFECT and at first taste, you can tell it was going to be a good one. Once stirred, I got all the flavors, and it was actually heaven, you get mango guava summer goodness, and flavorful matcha to balance. For working: there's a variety of seating and plenty of outlets everywhere. Water station is by the counter. I'd come back again to work!!
Immediately go!!!! The cutest place EVER. I love it inside; the vibe and decor really transport you to a middle eastern cafe. Very kind staff and quick to make drinks and food even when busy. It's a large space with lots of tables and booths, and a little market area with jewelry, and other items to buy. Every single drink, matcha and espresso, sounded delicious. I ordered the iced tiramisu latte and zaatar spiced avocado toast. Both were soooo tasty and I would get the both again next visit. Beautiful place, great food and drinks, and Palestinian owned. Go support local and check it out!
The ambiance of this place is to die for. The food options are very unique. Their matcha is good, very nutty. The staff is friendly. The overall place is not just aesthetically pleasing, but also spacious enough to meet friends and chat with them or work on projects while you are their enjoying your beverage/ food.

This coffee shop is new and owned by a brother-sister duo, who showcase their Palestinian and Syrian heritage throughout the shop. The flavors of the different drinks reflect their heritage as well as the gorgeous interior. They also have many pastries which are sourced through local businesses as well. As for our drinks, the matchas are definitely their best drinks! The lattes are good but if you are someone who likes their coffee sweet, I would recommend adding an extra pump of syrup. They also have classic syrup available at the counter where the lids and napkins are. The zaatar bagel was a 10/10 and you can get it with labneh or cream cheese. I enjoyed it both ways! Their baklava is to die for and I can't wait to try more items. The lack of parking is the only challenge with coming here. The coffee shop is located directly next to the ASU Tempe campus and so there's limited street parking and one paid lot around the corner. Other than that, I would highly recommend. read more
A new Palestinian-Syrian gem in Downtown Tempe, right next to the Tempe Mosque, lovingly owned by siblings Noor and Akram. It's got coffee, tea and delicious Middle Eastern baked goods and savory options (toast, bagel, etc.) It also has jewelry, notecards and other nicely curated merch for sale. The decor is striking, with gorgeous details everywhere. If you're into aesthetics, you'll love it there. I had a hot mint tea and tried both the baklava and a pistachio-chocolate croissant. Be warned that Middle-Eastern pastries and drinks can be quite sweet (but they truly taste so good.) Music playing was a mix of Arabic music, international music and American tunes. The sound level was perfect - not too loud. Although it was very crowded when I went, it wasn't noisy. I think the rugs absorb some of the noise, which is nice. This is a very spacious shop, with plenty of seating for customers. It would be a nice place to work from. I sat in the back room and noted there were several power outlets available. They have beautiful alcoves in the main room - right now they are limited to parties of 3+, but I suspect once the crowds die down a bit, they may be accessible for all. Also, there is outdoor seating available. In my personal experience, Middle Eastern hospitality has always been generous and kind, and this place did not disappoint. Plenty of street parking outside (metered). The only few downsides - right now the lines are really long. I love seeing the community support, but if you're looking for a quick in-and-out, maybe wait until the opening phase is over. There is only one cashier, so in addition to the line being long, it wasn't moving very fast (didn't mind, I was not in a rush). Also, you get what you pay for - this is a gorgeous cafe with high-quality food, so depending on your budget you may or may not find it a bit spendy. For a standard mint tea (tea bag), a specialty croissant (which arguably was not small), a (generous) slice of baklava and a matcha latte of sorts (I don't remember exactly what my friend had), you're looking at over $30 without tip. This is a gorgeous space that is really worth paying a visit to! read more
Beautiful place to sit and hangout! The attention to detail put into this interior is truly captivating, every corner draws you in with its whimsical and unique feel that it adds to the atmosphere. The mirror walls, the murals, the lemon trees, even the keffiyeh engraved tables, every aspect is a little reference to Arab heritage and culture. I came during their soft opening phase. Everyone working was incredibly sweet, but the service was a bit on the slower side, which was to be expected since they had just opened. I got a caramelized fig and vanilla matcha, I loved the presentation and it was definitely yummy although I might get it a bit sweeter next time. It's on the pricey side, 9$ for a medium drink. Would love to come back to try their coffee drinks, especially the baklava latte and the tiramisu latte as well. Very unique and a must try! read more
First off...love supporting a Palestine-owned business! During Ramadan they're open 24/7, which is beautiful and intentional. The space itself is gorgeous...very aesthetic, clean and inviting. Now let's get into the food! * Cookie Butter Matcha (iced) - DELICIOUS. Creamy, flavorful and perfectly balanced. I would absolutely order this again. * Pistachio Caramel Cookie (warmed) - So good. Soft, rich and worth it. * Salted Caramel Date Latte (iced) - It was okay. Not bad, just nothing memorable. * Baklava (warmed) - A little too sweet for my preference. Staff was friendly...shoutout to the cashier.Service was smooth. Parking was the only thing that threw me off. I wasn't sure where to park, so I ended up on the main street and walked about 4 minutes. Not terrible, but just something to be aware of. Baklava - 2 1/2 Stars Cookie Butter Matcha (iced) - 4 1/2 Stars Pistachio Caramel Cookie (warmed) - 5 Stars Salted Caramel Date Latte (iced) - 3 Stars read more

I was visiting AZ last weekend and came across Laymoon Cafe. We only ordered Lattes but they were so delicious! We had to get another one on the way back to CA. The honey vanilla cinnamon latte with vanilla cold foam and oat milk is perfect! All 3 of us agree this is the best latte we've ever had. We will definitely be back! read more
Worth the hype! Waited in line for a bit on a Sunday afternoon but hanging out with a friend so it wasn't too bad. We ordered the tiramisu latte, baklava latte, the fig matcha, a piece of baklava, and a pistachio cookie. The drinks were well-made with incredible flavors and good coffee balance. The baklava was decent but the pistachio cookie was an easy 10/10. I preferred the tiramisu latte over the baklava latte and am not normally a matcha girl, but found the fig matcha to be delicious as well! The space inside does have a good amount of seating and we found that people were constantly coming and going, so even though it was full and there was a line, we didn't have trouble snagging seats at a smaller table. read more
I've seen a lot of excitement about this café online and from friends, so I decided to check it out with a friend of mine. Definitely worth the hype! Firstly, everybody was so kind, and although it was very busy, there was so much seating to choose from. It was practical if you want to do work or just meet with someone. The designs and decor are so thoughtfully crafted. The honeycomb bread was creamy and sweet, but not too sweet. The drinks were amazing too. A must try. read more
Laymoon is a gorgeous cafe that plays with color and texture throughout the space, from mauve tile backsplash and arched white stone to beautifully draped textile on the ceilings. The best part is the drinks are actually delicious and service is friendly! I went with the caramelized fig matcha and was happy with the quality and amount of matcha in the drink -- especially since the matcha was hand whisked to order. The fig flavor was prominent without overpowering the matcha or being too sweet. The cardamom rose latte was also subtly sweet and fragrant. Laymoon is actually quite large for a coffee shop, with nice little nooks for groups, so while there might be a line, it can definitely handle the traffic. They've also become more efficient than others may have experienced when they first opened -- we arrived around 11am on a Sunday and got our drinks within 20 minutes despite the line reaching the door. We also found free Sunday parking, so it was a great experience overall :) read more
This place was good and the vibes were great. The cashier was friendly and she took our orders fast. I ordered the Iced Golden Cloud Matcha and it was really good. It wasn't too sweet and the matcha tasted good. The inside was comfy and well decorated. read more
Absolutely love this place! Been here twice and have enjoyed it both times. It's a Palestinian owned business in Tempe and has a great variety of food and drinks. I especially love their lime cooler and the mint mojito latte which reminds me a lot of the one you can get at Philz Coffee (Laymoon's is better). The staff is always so friendly, even when the place is super packed and busy. Haven't had a chance to sit down here since it's very popular, but the interior design and vibe is very beautiful. Would 10/10 recommend trying if you are in the area. read more

I got the tiramisu latte, very tasty. It is definitely more on the sweet side, so if you like dessert drinks, this is perfect. I'm more of a stronger coffee lover, so I'll have to try some other menu drinks to see how those are. We went Saturday morning and it was probably a solid 20-30min wait including the line to order and then to wait for it to come out (especially for tea and pastries). My coworkers got the vegan poptart and the chocolate pistachio croissant and they both said they were absolutely delicious, so those would be recommended as well. Service was nice though and it's really pretty inside, just a little busy. If you have the time to wait a little longer, it's a good spot to grab a bite and drink! read more
To go to Laymoon Cafe, is to be invited into a home of a Middle Eastern family to enjoy a cup of coffee and a baked good. It is warm and inviting, filled with the laughter in conversations of friends and coworkers, with the scent of warm spices filling the air. I went with my sister during a work break and an early morning pick me up. She ordered the cardamom latte and I got the upside down strawberry matcha. Both were made with care and you could tell the quality of ingredients used. I ordered the chocolate pistachio croissant. I can't wait to have it as a midday treat. I would definitely come back here and I'm glad to have a neighborhood spot that supports a culture and inclusion of Syrian and Palestinian communities. read more
Went on a Saturday afternoon and the wait wasn't too bad. I waited an hour but compared to what I've seen online an hour is actually not that bad lol. The interior is warm, and open with a really nice ambiance and I like the nook for the booth seating. Their tiramisu and fig matcha is what i ordered and honestly were really good. They're perfect because they're not too sweet. I would definitely go back but probably in a few months when the hype dies down. read more
I was really excited for this café to open, so this visit was unfortunately disappointing. While both the drink and food were great, the service left a lot to be desired. I came by around 5 p.m. to support a new local business and expected some wait due to the grand opening, but the process felt unnecessary long. Although the line was moving slowly, what stood out most was the lack of organization behind the counter. The employees seemed confused, and at times came across as a bit rude. After being told I could start ordering, I was interrupted three separate times, either by the employee helping me or by another staff member, which made ordering take about ten minutes. That helped explain why the line was moving so slowly. Plus I was looked over by another staff member to order, instead they took people in line behind me. Altogether, it took nearly an hour to wait, order, and receive my drink, which didn't feel worth it, especially with prices at $7 for a small and $9 for a large. That said, the inside of the café is beautiful and very welcoming. I can see this becoming a great study spot once things calm down, but from a student perspective, it does feel on the expensive side. I hope that as the café settles into its routine, the service becomes more efficient to match the quality of the drinks and atmosphere. read more
Checked this spot out since it was a short walk from our hotel while we were in Tempe. Didn't realize the long line is partially because they just opened. The cafe is beautifully designed and they sell merch you can peruse while waiting. My husband and I had to order our 3rd and 2nd choice of drink, respectively, due to shortages (hopefully they can work on this as they get into the swing of business). I got the lime cooler and greatly enjoyed it - nice apple flavor enhanced with notes of lime, good balance of sweet and tart, and a nice dried like garnish :) Definitely my favorite spot we found during our short trip! read more

Omg this place is exactly what the people of Phoenix needed. What an incredible way to bring culture to downtown Tempe. We waited in line for over an hour on opening day but it was worth it. Such a breath of fresh air to be amongst so much diversity. The cafe is absolutely stunning and so well done. Food- we ordered the Labne toast and the Wabat baklava and omg was it amazing. Drinks: we ordered the baklava latte and cardamom rose latte and both were incredible Misc- each latte was $8 due to the up charge of the alternative milk but it was worth it. Parking is your typical metered parking in DT Tempe read more
I have been here twice and both times it was very crowded. The coffee is very very good and all of the food seems like it is good as well (although i have never tried one myself). I wish they had more outlets because it is such a big study spot (or even some extension cords). I also noticed that the last few times we have been there, the baristas have not been super friendly. I wish they were a little more approachable and friendly (speaking as someone who had worked in the service industry). Other than that, very good! read more

This place almost makes me want to move back to Arizona it is so good. My best friend has been raving about this Palestinian coffee shop all year and said I would love it and she was right. The iced caramelized fig and vanilla matcha was so good it made me come back at 6am so I could have it on my drive back to LA. Also grabbed the salted caramel date latte (cause I needed the energy don't judge me for getting two drinks) and the Zaatar bagelas well on my way out and I almost cried it was so good. I wish I had more time to enjoy the ambiance of the space because it is so beautifully decorated. The aesthetics are 10/10. Everyone who works there seems really nice and were helpful with recommendations. I can't wait to go back and grab a matcha again! read more

This is one of my favorite cafes near ASU. The cafe itself is so beautiful I love the decor. Plus the coffee and matcha are amazing, my favs are the cardamom rose latte and caramelized fig matcha. Only con would be that the place gets very busy during the week because it's so good, and it's slightly more expensive then your average coffee place due to the higher quality. read more

I love this coffee shop! If you're looking to support a Palestinian owned coffee shop this is the one! The staff was friendly and amazing and they serve the best matcha and avocado toast, mine had pomegranates and it was such an interesting taste but so delicious. The service was fast and we didn't wait long. They also sell cute handbags, clips and other cute things. The coffee shop is decorated with hanging rugs and mirrors and makes for a beautiful aesthetic and so cozy. I will definitely be coming back. read more
I'm glad I got to try this spot. After all the hype the line wasn't even bad. The service was so friendly and dedicated me on the menu. I ordered a golden matcha. It's very sweet so if that's something you like then it's worth a try. I also tried the rose coffee which was good. The lemonade is yummy too! Lots of seating inside and out as well as all gender bathrooms. The place is decorated so cute with jewelry and other accessories sold. Worth a visit especially for a picturesque spot. read more

Hands my favorite cafe! From the coffee beverages to the vibe! I was visiting the area for work, fortunate to find this place and ended up visiting it everyday I was there. I would try a different drink everyday, all equally fabulous. I even planned my days after my first visit to spend an hour or so there to work because it was so pleasant. They sell gifts and jewelry, which I ended up buying two pairs of earring, they are beautiful, love them! read more

Beautiful space and a small but interesting coffee menu. I tried the iced tiramisu latte and it was good. They have other signature lattes as well as matcha drinks, refreshers, and teas. Lots of seating available inside as well as some tables outside. read more
Very popular cafe! They are busy when I got there midday and midweek. There are so many interesting items on the drink menu that I would like to try. I chose their special matcha, with banana date. Even though they had a long line of customers, the drink came out fast. I like the purée banana in my strong matcha. It helps cut down the bitterness of the thick matcha. The honeycomb bread with honey is so addictive. I kept enjoying one honeycomb at a time until they were gone! Definitely I will revisit to try other drinks on their menu, like lemonade and tea. read more

Overall not bad for a cafe near Tempe ASU campus! Love how they are open super late and have a lot of seating. Their drinks are not bad especially their coffee. Their matcha improved since they first opened! Only complaint is that it is a bit on the pricey side. ( recommend tiramisu latte and golden cloud matcha) read more

Such a cute place to grab a bite and drink. I went with my friends and we sat at a little booth it was very vibey, and comfortable. There was a long line but it moved pretty fast, I ordered the Pom lime energy it was very refreshing and an amazing recommendation from the cashier. read more
I heard all the buzz about the "new" coffee shop in town and I got excited. And I also heard about the long lines when they opened... so I waited until those lines died down a bit, lol. Well, Laymoon Cafe is worth all that buzz! On my first visit, I had a lot of questions about all the delicious sounding drinks... and the staff was friendly and helpful for me in deciding upon my drink order! I wanted to order a pastry too, but they did not have any gluten-free options available when I visited (toward the mid-afternoon on a weekday). Have you ever had a Banana Date Matcha? I have and it is spectacular! PRO TIP: order it less sweet because the banana and date add some natural sweetness. There are tons of comfy seats and tables... some smaller and others better for larger groups! Lots of available outlets too... so bring that laptop and get your studying or work done while enjoying one (or more) of their yummy drinks! Overall rating: *****FIVE STARS***** Gluten-free rating: ***THREE STARS*** read more
As a middle eastern girl I love the theme and the vibes of it all! Will always support a company for the Middle East. But parking is horrible and you need to pay to park. My drink was almost way too sweet it tasted like simple syrup. But love the vibes read more

01/26/2026 I had been hesitant to go here if I couldn't be there before they opened to get in line, and especially not on the weekends. Fortunately I had a Monday off, so I got there about 15 minutes before they opened (9am). I would've gotten there sooner but had to find street parking (and pay for it online). There were already 5 people in line ahead of me. The line got much longer by 9am. Ordering took a while, as the employee did not seem fully trained yet. They didn't have many pastry options yet either - I really wanted to try one of their cookies. So all I ordered was the Caramelized Fig & Vanilla Matcha. The waiting area was small, so a lot of people went to wait at a table. I ket waiting by the counter and saw people that ordered after me already received their orders. I went up to one of two baristas that were making all of the drinks and asked. She said they'll make it next, and then she asked a third person to make it. I think what happened is they lost my order slip. Each order gets printed out on a small piece of paper that the baristas then take to their stations and make the drinks. I bet my order slip fell somewhere. I hope they figure out a better system because that caramelized fig matcha was SO good! I would go back for that and to try some of the food. My friend went on a different day and loved their Tiramisu Latte. Note: They are open 24/7 from February 17th through March 18th for Ramadan. read more

Is this still owned by the previous business owners of the spot ? Or is it new owners and it got a remodel?
All I know is that it is owned by two siblings. I assume new owners
