Temple Coffee Roasters

This is now my 4th Temple location I’ve visited, and I love it every time! Had the Java single origin French press and I was really blown away by how good the French press was. Super cool shop, and I’d be happy to visit any Temple Coffee Roasters I come across!

I finally stopped by Temple Coffee after hearing so many good things, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The vibe is calm and inviting, and it’s the kind of place where you can actually hear your own thoughts. My latte was rich and smooth with a bright note I really enjoyed. The barista even recommended a pastry that paired perfectly with it. Such a thoughtful touch. I’ll definitely be back.

Coffee is great plus vegan muffins and donuts. Being ignored by the barista for an uncomfortable period of time while she stuffed her face and slurped her beverage made me feel unwelcomed. Love the patio and midtown location.

I had previously ordered their beans online, and I finally got the chance to visit in person. I ordered a latte and a black coffee—both were great. The coffee quality was solid, and the vibe of the café gave me a really good feeling. It's definitely a trendy spot and worth visiting.

I came here today and thoughts of drinking an iced Matcha latte with vanilla cold foam. In return all I got was milk with a pinch of Matcha. The only reason why I came here was because I heard good reviews about this place and I thought they’re very experienced. to my surprise, I was disappointed. so just a heads up I don’t think this location makes great Matcha when I asked if I could get more, Matcha added to my drink, they told me they usually charge for extra Matcha and I’m grateful they added more with no charge, but there was no difference even with the extra Matcha they apparently added.

been my fav cf shop for really long timeeee, the servers in here are greatly friendly and the vibe too, love it 💯💯💯

Amazing other than the prices, but what are you gonna do. $9.15 for just a matcha latte. I can buy my own matcha powder, and make 10-15 lattes for the same price.

I just left this Temple location feeling extremely upset by how the situation was handled. It has been about 2 hours and I am still crying. It was a busy Sunday morning (as per usual) and I waited approx 20 minutes. I ordered two lattes to go — one oat milk and one regular. The manager, who was also making drinks, misheard and made them as a mocha instead. When I noticed the mistake at the register, I mentioned it but immediately clarified several times, “It’s fine, it’s totally fine, please don’t dump it.” The drinks were perfectly acceptable to me. Despite this, the manager took both drinks and dumped them out while I was still saying, “Please don’t, it’s okay.” This was not only wasteful (~32oz of product), but also extremely dismissive. I became visibly upset and ended up crying at the register. I then had to wait another 5–10 minutes in the lobby for a remake I did not want at this point, feeling embarrassed and disregarded. When the drinks came out, I explained to the manager why I was upset — that I had clearly stated the original drinks were fine and I didn’t want them remade. She responded that it was loud and that Temple’s policy is “to make you happy,” despite the fact that I was visibly distressed as a direct result of food product being wasted as well as not being listened to. TL;DR: A minor misheard order was perfectly acceptable to me. I repeated multiple times that it was fine and asked that the drinks not be dumped. The manager ignored me, discarded the drinks anyway, wasted product, and left me visibly upset while I waited for a remake I did not want.

They gave sooooo many vegan pastry options. I was pleasantly surprised. Great service

I tried the limited drink called Camp Crush at Temple, which is made with matcha, sparkling water, and watermelon syrup. I was so excited to order it, but it ended up being really disappointing. The drink didn't taste like matcha at all and instead came across more like a generic green juice. The watermelon flavor was also completely missing, which made the overall experience fall flat. For a seasonal special, I expected something refreshing and balanced, but unfortunately this one didn't deliver. This 1-star rating is solely based on the Camp Crush drink and this review is only about that item. However, I do love Temple in general and their Enlightenment is my absolute favorite!!! The pastries are also absolutely delicious and always worth coming back for.

Arguably one of the best Coffee shops here in Sacramento that I've been to. When I think of "Coffee Shop," this location pretty much defines it for me, in other words this place is what I feel like a coffee shop should be. I feel like Temple lives up to their given reputation. There are many locations around Sacramento and I went to the one on S Street and the service at this spot did not disappoint. The line was to the door when I arrived which is probably typical in the mornings, and as I got closer to the front, the kind worker took my order, didn't even have to wait to get to the register to have my order taken which was pretty nice. Ordered a plain cold brew and honestly it's one of the best ones I've had around Sac. The taste was just right for my liking, it was very earthy and smooth in my opinion. I'll definitely be back.

Perfection! While visiting Sac I heard the locals love Temple coffee and knew I had to give it a shot. I couldn't decide what to get so I got an iced matcha latte and the iced coffee and both were delicious but the matcha was the star. I got matcha with almond milk and no sweetener and it was SO good! No chalky flavor, no bitterness... so smooth. The service was quick even with the line out the door. So happy I got to try this place because it definitely lives up to the hype. Can't wait to come back!

We've been coming to this location for over 13 years, always a pleasant experience. Our go to is their Mexican mocha, we enjoy them both hot and iced. Parking is very tight, we are lucky enough to have it close to our office so it's just a short walk.

Quality coffee. Cappuccino was on point. Very clean inside. A decent amount of sit down spots, but I came on a very busy evening so I sat outside on patio.

I don't know how I overlooked on writing a review for Temple Coffee on S Street. I love coming here on the weekend after the gym early in the morning and treat myself to a nice cup of special coffee/tea and a pastry/muffin. I usually drink black coffee during the week, so this is a treat! This location is always busy because of the open space and comfortable seats/couch. It's common to see a lot of people with their laptops and headphones. It's next to Revolution Wine, Pushkin's, and Sac Food Coop. There is a small outdoors parking lot next door, limited street parking and my last option is to park at the garage structure if I can't find parking. It's free to park inside the garage on the weekend. I'm not sure about weekday. I always like to try their seasonal drinks. For today's visit, I had the WINTER BLISS. Its peppermint tea steeped in chocolate coconut milk & soy milk, topped with dark cocoa sugar/sprinkles. Yeah, I'm trying to hold on to winter a little longer before we have to observe day light savings next Sunday. All I can say is the drink reminds me of christmas~winter~snow. It was perfectly sweeten with a distinct taste of the peppermint tea. Next week, I'll be back to my Matcha Latte or Green Jasmine Teas ;-) Don't leave without getting a piece of pastry. I like their almond croissants and muffins. I want to say it's sourced from a local bakery but I'm not sure. I have to remember to ask the next time. The baristas are always friendly and happy! Temple Coffee is distributed nationwide, with eight coffee houses in Sacramento area. Skip Starbucks for a change and support local!

Came here for Mother's Day Surprisingly not that crowded I was by myself because I wanted to enjoy my coffee hot for once I couldn't find any parking There is a small parking in front of the coffee shop but it was full And I couldn't find street parking either There is a parking garage I found conveniently close So I parked there , I'm not sure how much I need to pay for it yet . Service was wonderful and quick Barista helped me with picking my order and my order was ready before I even finished paying . Outside seating is beautiful with singing birds around me. I ordered a cappuccino with Oat milk and a hint of vanilla . It tasted delicious, and not overly sweet. Will definitely come back again.

This coffee shop is always popping!! Sacramento peeps know where to go for great coffee! This coffee is rich but smooth and just delish!! The service is quick and spot on. Attention to detail and fun atmosphere- lots of outside seating too.

This is probably my favorite Temple location. ( Helps that it's next to Revolution Wine! ) The last few times I've been there has been a line, but they usually are pretty quick to keep it moving. I am happy they serve vegan pastries! Their patio is really nice and shaded. Parking lot is always full but there is lots of free street parking close by.

My favorite roaster EVER!!! On vacation in Waikiki and they had a cafe serving Temple. I was in heaven twice! Temple on the beach was amazing.

One of the many decent coffee shops in good ol Sac! I like the rustic vibes of the place. Ordered a vanilla latte, which is pretty generic, but it was good. The pastries are humongous, and only tried the cheese danish so far but it was also good.

This place was absolutely wonderful. On a Sunday morning we were looking for somewhere to get something for my mother-in-law at UC Davis in Patient for breakfast. This was the third place we stopped at. It was a little busy, but well worth the wait. The ambience was perfect. The staff was great and like I said, the latte was made with love:) we definitely will be back!

First time at this location. Came here for a coffee date. This is a nice coffee shop. They offer indoors and outdoors seatings. Got there at 5pm weeknight and there were no available seatings inside. Luckily it wasn't extremely cold outside. Since it was my first time there, I thought the process was to order at the cashier. Boy, I was wrong lol. You place your order on the left counter with a barista then walk to the right to pay at the cashier. The staffs were friendly and told me to not worry about it. They said most customers did the same thing! =P I ordered the Mexican hot chocolate. It came in a to go cup. The chocolate was hot and definitely a good way to keep me warm while sitting outside.

I came here with my niece, and we walked in on a Wednesday morning. The line was out of the door, which was a little silly. They had a yummy coffee sample called Wonderlust, which I enjoyed when we ordered The ladies behind the counter were extremely sweet and had great customer service throughout when I placed my order. I actually asked for coffee cake, but instead got this little pumpkin donut thing which wasn't bad, but not what I ordered. The drinks were good and there's plenty of outdoor seating, which is nice. They are playing cute Lofi coffee shop music inside and it's a nice place to get some work done considering it seems that there's ample seating despite the long line. To me it seems like it's a place for a lot of state workers or people working at the hospital to go. It's also right next to the co-op, which is literally one of my absolute favorite grocery stores.

I've been coming to this location for many years now and it's the closest just coming from Elk Grove. I think I've been to almost all of the Temple locations within the Sacramento area but still find myself coming back to the S St location. It's small but cozy. There are indoor and outdoor seating. Usually I like to sit and sip but sometimes to go has been my option lately. I do love that they offer a seasonal menu and changes every year with a few returning staples. My go to lately has been an oat milk cappuccino (Dharma) and the Enlightenment which is a Jasmine tea steeped in soy milk with added honey. Something so simple as a Jasmine tea is great on cold fall/winter mornings or if you're sick. It's the perfect hug in a cup. Service is always great and if you come often, the baristas remember your order! I don't come often but I try to. I enjoy seeing the same baristas everytime I visit, so longevity is a thing at Temple. Also, if you buy a tumbler, bring it back to use for your drinks and get a discount.

My favorite coffee spot in Sacramento! Multiple locations. Great coffee. Yummy pastries. Each location has its own cute little vibe. I usually just get my iced soy latte sweetened with brown sugar, and every sip is just heavenly. I look forward to my morning cup of joe from this place, it's just sooooo good! The service is superb, workers are super friendly. The S St. one is my favorite location, it's this adorable cozy brick building, dog friendly. Great ambiance to chill, hang out, get productive, read a book, it definitely my favorite vibe out of all the locations.

Note: 9th street location not S! This place just keeps getting nastier.. stopped by early so zero excuse.. the soured cream floating on top of the coffee and on the lid is from not cleaning the container that holds the creamer

1/26/25- Memories... a scent or taste can overload you..and bring you back to such a wonderful place of time... Happily picked up a bag of the Brazil Campos Altos.. So excited, I had to ground the bag when I got back home! Brewed this morning- Scent now swirling in the area like a barista Amy house- hehe.. Love the look of a light caramel .. Taste- extremely smooth- Frothed with organic soy milk- splash of mct oil- and a drizzle of date syrup- ! A perfect custom created soy latte!

Temple Coffee is seriously doing the most this spring and I am HERE for it! From the seasonal sips that taste like sunshine in a cup to the cutest little plush pup I'm officially obsessed. The vibe? Immaculate. The coffee? Next level. The spring menu? A must-try. Whether you're grabbing a quick pick-me-up or settling in for a slow sip moment, Temple never misses. Run, don't walk to try their latest!

very cozy vibes went to study and it was great! The chai i got was great and the service was good too.

I LOVE TEMPLE! It is truly the best coffee in Sacramento and most likely the world too. Every person that works here is so kind and make sure I leave a little happier than I walked in. Don't sleep on their seasonal menus because they are a must try, especially the "camp fire sing- a-long" from their current summer menu. Jackie, the curly haired barista, is such a gem. So funny and welcoming and makes coming in that much more special. So grateful for her. Love S Street Temple!

What can I say? Temple is such a great place to grab your morning coffee fix and pastries especially if you're working around the area. The first time I went here, I tried their iced matcha which I think was decent! However, I came back again to grab an iced vanilla latte and I think out of all my time drinking coffee- Temple had the most smoothest, and boldest flavor to their coffee. Literally 5/5 for me. The service is also super great as well! The workers there have always been so sweet and I love their energy! The ambience can get a little busy at times but your mix of those catching up in those trying to get some work done all is what makes a cafe!

Really cute temple!! I love how to pastries are different depending on which location you go to. The bliss is my go to drink. Definitely recommend trying it if you want something non caffeine!

I love this coffee spot the staff is incredibly friendly, always welcoming, and very professional. They greet you with a smile and ask how you're doing. Unfortunately, the vibe inside is a bit off due to the crowd it attracts. If you're having a normal conversation, you might get shushed. It feels more like a library than a café, with people camping out all day on their laptops in complete silence

Temple Coffee is peaceful, cute and smells like roasted perfection the second you walk in. I got an iced vanilla latte with oat milk and it was so smooth and balanced. It wasn't overly sweet and bitter it was just right. Their espresso actually tasted like something and the foam on top was flawless. The whole vibe is calm energy with background music that just makes u want to journal and study. The baristas are chill and friendly.

Temple has many locations for good reason. The coffee here is solid. They roast their own beans too, which solidifies that they are good! There is always a line when I come here and the coffee is on point every time. No matter what coffee I order, they all come out delicious! Even the pastries here are good. Welcoming staff, great ambiance and clean bathroom! I love the outdoor seating!

As I've been (slowly) learning more and more about Sacramento's growing food scene, two things have become increasingly clear - there's an awesome beer culture in the city and there's a seemingly abundant number of coffee shops that can be found. Both suggest that folks up here really appreciate the art and skills that goes into crafting the two, but I can't help but wonder if perhaps folks overindulging in the former also helped to create the latter as well. Either way, I'm certainly not complaining - I always enjoy a tasty, cold pint of beer, but really, it never hits the spot the way a delicious cup of coffee does! Even though my first visit to Temple Coffee came more as a byproduct of wanting to check out Pushkin's Bakery (it's located on the other side of the building), the dynamic was actually reversed for all of the other trips I've made to the two. Honestly, I just really like almost everything about this place - the decor is a bit trendy and hipster (but not in an obnoxious way), the general vibe is warm and casual, and, most importantly, the menu offerings are rather impressive. Whether you're looking for a cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate, Temple's menu has something for nearly every taste - French press, drip, cold brew, Americano, Gibraltar, matcha lattes, chai lattes, roughly twenty varieties of teas, Mexican Hot Chocolates, seasonal drinks, and so much more. Plus, the beans they use changes regularly, originating from countries like Colombia, Costa Rica, and Ethiopia, just to name a few, and even note if they're women produced, which is awesome of them to highlight. Of course, what's even more important is that the coffee (and tea) they put out tastes good and, yes, I can confirm - the coffee they put out does, in fact, taste good! The first time I was here, I opted to get their FRENCH PRESS ($varies), which I don't often see offered at a lot of places. Even when I do, they certainly don't give you a French press to take with you to your table so that you can pour it when you're ready (they also give you a timer so you know when they suggest pouring it out). As for how it tasted, it was terrific - I liked how robust and smooth the flavor was. In addition, I've also had their DRIP COFFEE ($4.25 large) and their COLD BREW ($6), which are a bit more straightforward, but hit the spot perfectly and also don't take as long if you are ordering to-go. Since all of my visits here have included walking over to Pushkin's, I've yet to try any of the baked goodies Temple has to offer. However, I plan on making a point of it the next time I'm here, as everything always looks so good in the display case (and in the photos on Yelp). If there was one "bad" thing about this place, it'd be that they're usually pretty busy, so snagging a table can be a little hit or miss. However, between its super convenient location and the wealth of street parking around here, Temple is perfect for a quick stop to get a caffeine fix when I'm on the go!

Came here on a rainy Thursday mid morning with a friend. Great study space with multiple outlets and cozy ambiance. Very friendly staff. No avocado toast at this location, but they make fabulous lattes.

yo y mis amigas fuimos a probar este café y está muy rico, se lo recomiendo a todos, volvería a ir

Pretty good quick and easy very flavorful coffee. I recommend if you're in hurry and you need to get out quick.

I don't ever leave reviews, but in this case, I had to - it was beyond rude. I came in from Starbucks with a drink because they closed and I stopped by this Temple location in the evening, like always and typically get a chai latte or an iced hibiscus. An extremely rude barista (this one is typically obnoxious - everyone needs to hear her stories and opinions), immediately walked to my table after sitting down and began scolding me, tossing a temple sleeve with disgust on the table and then proceeded to tell me how rude I was for doing such a thing. I don't get why she couldn't just kindly let me know they have some policy or whatever it is, seeing that I always give them business. I guess the expectation was for me to throw out my whole Starbucks drink if I didn't cover it with the sleeve? Again, I had not even been seated for 2 minutes and I was planning on getting an iced hibiscus after getting settled, like always, and no other baristas ever mentioned anything - it's a non-issue, but this barista wanted to make it a mission to reprimand me. Usually bad service happens, like after you are served...but this was next level - I literally sat down and was unofficially told to leave. A bad apple ruins the bunch, hoping the manager wises up and cuts her loose because that behavior is unacceptable.

Ordered a hot oat milk latte and was charged for a syrup I did not request or receive. I double checked with my husband to see if he tasted simple syrup or something, but he didn't. Since I was sneakily charged for a special espresso at a different Temple location (see other review), I'm starting to think employees are encouraged to rip customers off. Won't be going anymore.

This is a very cute spot, perfect for studying. I was excited to try it here! I'm a huge matcha fan and I was a bit skeptical if it was real matcha. This place seemed like a genuine legit coffee spot so I assumed they had authentic matcha. To be sure, I asked the cash register if it was actual matcha, if it tasted earthy, and told her how much I love strong grassy earthy matcha. She said yes to my questions and said they used a good quality matcha powder. To my surprise, I got a very milky matcha drink. I don't even think I can call it a matcha drink. It tasted like a matcha flavored milk. The color was incredibly light. I wish I took it back and got a different drink. I took a few sips, threw it away and went to another coffee shop. Next time, I know to ask what color the matcha drink is. My partner got a Mexican mocha and that drink was actually good. I wish I got that instead. I would definitely get that if I came back. Don't know if I will though. Giving it 3 stars because I wish the person taking my order knew more about matcha and realized that if I was picky about matcha, I wouldn't like theirs. I genuinely wouldn't call it a matcha drink. If they're going to offer a matcha drink, they should make it right or even at least close to how it's supposed to be made/taste. It was a disgrace to matcha. Get any other drink besides the matcha.

I was about to crash out from being unemployed but after a sip of this green tea I was feelin myself. So tasty and the vibes were on point. Very friendly service.

what's there not to like about this location. . the patio is pretty amazing. the patio is big and lots of tables shared with the wine restaurant. there is plenty of big community tables as well. . parking wise there is a parking structure for you to park if your visiting the whole foods too. . My go to order is their ice drip, which is ice coffee. They rotate the flavor daily or every other day. I love drinking black coffee to taste the beans. I love latte and other drinks too but nothing beats a ice black coffee. . If you are here on the weekend for coffee, you also dine next door at revolution which has great brunch options. . Overall temple is still my favorite spot in sac for coffee. I just love the service, vibes of each cafe, and the coffee is consistent. Hope this review helps. Thanks for reading. Have a yelptastic day. Follow me for more.

My best friend raved to me about Temple, a popular specialty coffee company based out of Sacramento. How could I miss the opportunity to support this locally owned and operated cafe? I'm a full supporter of cafes that serve drinks for all preferences and include a seating area. This location of Temple is perfect to sip, chill, or work at--good vibes included! Inside is quite spacious--open windows, plenty of wooden tables, and cozy music with brick walls. The outdoor patio is lush and great for basking in the fresh air. Service is the definition of friendly, fabulous, and fun! You will order with the barista, they craft it in front of you, and your drink is ready by the time you pay. As a gal partial to tea and with my friend's recommendation--I went for the Enlightenment. It was pure harmony for my body! The Jasmine green tea was floral, fragrant, and soothing while the honey gave it a slight sweetness. The soy milk was perfectly creamy since I don't drink dairy. I'd love to try their other special offerings but it seems that coffee and tea are widely available and perfected here! There are several Temple Coffee Roasters locations throughout Sacramento. This one in Midtown seems to be quite popular and busy with locals. Parking is available in the free lot. If you're looking for wonderfully prepared drinks, courteous service, and a local cafe then this is your spot!

Temple never seems to disappoint. The coffee taste so fresh and flavorful that you will never regret having a cup of coffee. If you enjoy coffee, that is definitely a place to go.

temple coffee, you had surprised me with the cola cherry cold brew! it actually was so good and omg the energy i had after!!! also tried the vanilla latte which was good. i really want a caramel drink but didnt realize they didnt have that flavor. two drinks were roughly about $15. i would come back to try other flavors.

Almost always hopping, every time I come, probably due to their close proximity to the Sac Co-op. I love their chai, although at $7, it's a bit pricy. Love their selection of delicious, dairy-free baked goods. Best of all are the hours- open till 10 pm! I hate that so many coffeeshops close so early. A nice spot to meet up with friends in the evening and chill.

Love temple coffee, esp the H street location. consistently good. I also like that they have seasonal options. My personal favorites are the gingerbread latte and orange blossom latte. Only downside is no real savory food options. It's a little pricey but worth it IMO because the quality is top notch

Street parking or park in a garage that's near the grocery store. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered the Bliss and it was really good! It was peppermint tea, coconut milk, and honey, and it was perfection. They have great tea and coffee selections, and I have more to try! Recommendation(s): - Bliss Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - Street parking or park in the garage that's near the grocery store - Accept Apple Pay - Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating

Amazing service helped us right when we came in the door, we felt a little lost in the new shop and the barista behind the bar was super friendly! I forgot to catch his name (Curly hair cool guy) drinks and cookie were just amazing sweetness and flavor to a perfection! Bold flavors with perfect subtle flavors! Chill vibes a perfect stop before hitting the airport back to Burbank!

My husband and I are visiting town and Temple is a short walk from the Airbnb we're renting so we dropped in for our coffees this morning. We got an iced americano, the "camp counselor" seasonal drink, and a banana bread. Everything was ready quickly and I LOVED my camp counselor--it was so refreshing! The glassware was pretty too which is always nice. There's lots of indoor and outdoor seating. The staff was polite and friendly, even to one of their unhoused neighbors, which was lovely to see. We'll probably be back at least once before we have to head home.

Ambiance is great here! Loved the outside seating. The coffee was amazing and all of the staff were so nice. If you're a true coffee lover, this is the place for you! The perfect sweet but not too sweet drink was the Mexican mocha and the vanilla lattes. Even my fiancés cold brew was delicious and he added no creamer!

The coffee wasn't great but the service was good. The place gets busy quickly and tables are tight (like at any temple coffee)

This place was highlyyy recommended by my colleagues and I'm so glad they did! I got here around 3 to do some work and it was a little busy, probably residual from lunch hour, but I would try to go here not around peak hours because parking could get a bit tricky! I ordered an Iced Mexican Mocha with the homemade whipped cream. It gave the feeling you get of having a hot cocoa after a cold day, of course without it actually being a hot cocoa - just very homey in a sense! I studied outside on the patio, which was cute with all of the greenery! Will def be frequenting here :)

Done! Slightly more caffeinated that a typical day, but I finished Temple's passport today. This being the final location I needed to visit I came this afternoon instead of waiting until tomorrow morning. The associates at each location were wonderful. Had that not been the case I would not have continued. Final drink was an oat milk macchiato. I appreciate the promotion and what Temple is doing to donate to a meaningful local cause.

I love this Temple. They have outdoor seating. They also have a lot of seating for people working, studying, and lounging. Most parking around here is only 2 hours. I loved to come here for the day and do work and read a good book. I LOVED their seasonally drink - Daydream. It's an Earl gray drink with a chocolate and coconut foam.
