About Hilal Coffee

Where Night Meets Coffee

Hilal Coffee is founded and led by Ali Hilal and Meera Ebeida, a husband and wife team based in Allen, Texas.

We started Hilal Coffee together in 2024. Meera was my only help at the very first events. Today, she leads service for our female-only events and runs the marketing side of the business. Hilal Coffee does not exist without her, and the brand has been a partnership from day one.

Hilal Coffee started with a simple belief: coffee is more than a beverage. It is ritual. It is presence. It is a reason to slow down, look someone in the eye, and share a moment that matters. We are a husband and wife team, and this belief is the thread that runs through everything we do.

The name Hilal means crescent in Arabic. It carries the weight of new beginnings, of growth, of the quiet anticipation that comes when something beautiful is about to unfold. The crescent moon appears at night, and so do most of the celebrations we love. Weddings that dance past midnight. Corporate galas beneath string lights. Intimate gatherings where laughter fills the evening air.

Hilal Coffee exists at the intersection of nighttime celebration and the warmth of a perfectly crafted cup. We bring specialty espresso and matcha to moments that people will remember for years. Not because of us, but because of what a shared drink can do when the setting is right and the care is real.

Based in Dallas-Fort Worth, we travel across the metroplex and beyond to serve at weddings, corporate events, private parties, and every kind of gathering worth celebrating. If people are coming together, we want to be there with something warm in hand.

“To elevate coffee into a meaningful experience that brings people together, marks special moments, and feels intentional rather than transactional.”

Our Mission

What We Believe

Six principles that guide how we show up, serve, and create.

Craft

We source exceptional beans and serve with precision. Every cup is made properly.

Hospitality

When guests approach our cart, they feel seen, welcomed, and joyful.

Connection

Coffee brings people together. We create space for that.

Celebration

We exist where nighttime moments and meaningful gatherings come alive.

Intention

Nothing we do is careless. From cup to experience, everything is considered.

Authenticity

We are not performative. We are genuinely in love with what we do.

The Cart

Our mobile coffee bar is built around a warm, beige cart that blends seamlessly into any event aesthetic. It is designed to feel approachable and refined at the same time, a station that invites people over rather than fading into the background.

At the heart of the setup sits our Sanremo YOU dual-boiler espresso machine. It allows us to pull espresso shots and steam milk simultaneously, which means faster service without sacrificing quality. Every drink is crafted with precision, whether it is a classic cortado or a lavender oat milk latte.

You will find our team in deep maroon aprons, focused and friendly, ready to welcome every guest who walks up. The entire experience, from the visual warmth of the cart to the first sip, is designed to feel intentional and memorable.
