16 oz. Chai Latte
Alana E.

This Temple location isn't my favorite, but it is reliable! The staff are friendly as usual and willing to help, and the chai i got was not too sweet while still being refreshing. However, I think this location isn't as welcoming due to its limited space; finding a comfortable seat is more difficult than at other locations, as there are fewer options. However, the outside patio is fun when the weather is nice!

Reflecting back on 2025, this was my most visited coffee shop because I was obsessed with the campfire sing along from the summer menu and the gingersnap latte from the fall menu. Loved both so much. Especially during pregnancy, I would order the decaf coffee or get my matcha latte. The consistent quality has kept me coming back as a regular.

Temple Coffee Roasters isn't just about amazing coffee--it's the little touches that make this spot extra special. I ordered a latte with oat milk, and it was perfect. The espresso was smooth and flavorful, the oat milk was steamed just right, and the whole drink felt thoughtfully crafted. What I really loved, though, was the ambiance. They have chalkboards for people to draw on, which adds such a fun, creative vibe to the space. It's great seeing the rotating designs and contributions from other customers and makes the shop feel more like a community hangout. Temple's sleek, modern style paired with those personal, artistic touches really sets it apart. The coffee prices are a little higher, but between the quality of the drinks and the welcoming atmosphere, it's completely worth it. If you love great coffee and a spot with personality, this is the place to be!

Vanilla latte to go
Zoena H.

I decided to try something new: their banana bread and a vanilla latte. The banana bread was incredibly moist and delicious, and the vanilla latte was a fun change from my usual order (trying to branch out, haha!). My friend and I came here to grab coffee and study for a bit. While the space is small inside, we managed to find a table. The line would get busy at times but moved quickly, and the staff was as friendly and personable as always. Since it was raining, outdoor seating wasn't an option, but the cozy vibe inside made up for it. Plus, the place was super clean, which is always a big plus for me. Temple continues to be one of my favorite spots in Sacramento

Almond muffin. It was stale tasting.

Lights, camera, action! This is the place to see and be seen. It's a neighborhood gem, that's out in plain sight. Situated across from a park, and surrounded by lunch/dinner spots, it's the perfect meetup place. There are small tables/ bar like counter outside, or you can squeeze into one of the tables inside. It's cozy and quaint, and you'll pick up that vibe from the moment you walk in. The line moves fairly fast, and you'll find the menu online, on the wall, and at the cash register. Coffee items are a tad more limited here, but the staff is great at making thoughtful suggestions. Price points are pretty much the same here, as they are at most coffee spots, but the sizing is smaller here. Enjoy the coffee, but avoid the pastries. We both found the pastries to be bland and dry. Fun spot in midtown! It's worth popping in for.

Mexican Mocha & Strawberry Donut
Stefanie C.

Midtown Sacramento is so cool now! I came to this location of Temple to hang out and get a few hours of work done. Took Uber so can't speak to the parking situation. Customer service is fantastic. Love the friendly baristas! Ordered a Mexican Mocha and Strawberry Donut, both of which tasted delicious. Would get both again. Wi-Fi is strong and there's plenty of indoor and outdoor patio space. Absolute coffeeshop perfection.

Matcha Sunrise (Spring 2023 menu)
Ashley C.

The final Temple location that I haven't visited yet! I feel like I've just collected all of my Pokémon badges. We came by to pick up coffee on a weekday morning and it was still pretty packed inside. The shop is on the smaller side, not as much room for a line if it gets long, but they're still super efficient here like other locations with their ordering system so you're bound to be in and out in no time. Unfortunately we must have come on a bad day because so many of their beans were out of stock or very low stock. It was a smaller shelf to begin with so even if it was full, there weren't quite as many options as you would see at K Street or S Street for example. That was a bit frustrating since restocking our Temple beans was the main reason we drove all the way downtown, and I didn't want to get the kids back in the car just to drive to another location. We ended up just getting the last bag of Three Pillars and the new spring Wonderblend instead. As for drinks my husband got our favorite Thai tea and then I tried the Matcha Sunrise from the seasonal menu. It was very refreshing! I thought it may taste watery or too carbonated but the amount of matcha cream was perfect and it made the drink super smooth and very matcha forward. Customer service was great here, as always. Very polite and very accommodating to their customers. They have a few outdoor tables if you're in a group and a lot of barstool seating which is perfect if you're by yourself trying to get work done or just want to people watch on the sidewalk. The sun doesn't quite hit that side in the morning but I imagine that makes it a nice spot on a cool crisp morning. Not sure I'll be back to this particular location since we usually frequent another coffee shop when we're in this block of town, but I'm still a Temple fan regardless!

espresso coffee
Margo P.

A great place for lovers of delicious coffee. I usually order espresso on dharma beans. Impeccable taste for connoisseurs of excellent coffee without additives. The atmosphere is conducive to heartfelt conversations or reading. All baristas are always polite and pleasant to talk to.

Latte
Nina H.

Excellent coffee. A bit pricey compared to Starbucks across the street, but worth the surcharge when you want to treat yourself to better quality. My go to is the lattes, most dependable lattes in Sacramento. The bliss is also nice when I am trying to cut down on caffeine.

Outside
Cherie M.

My partner and I were in Sacramento for a wedding. We needed a quick cup of coffee before heading to the airport. I found Temple on Yelp and boy is this place SO CUTE! I wish we had something like this in the OC. I loved the unique seasonal coffee selection. I got the ginger snap latte and boy does it have a snap! They use fresh ginger and I loved it! The team was also friendly too. They were getting to know us and letting us watch them create the work of art that is their coffee. I will be coming back to Temple and recommend anyone visit them!

16 oz. Matcha Latte, 16 oz. Mexican Mocha
Drew T.

We got the Matcha Latte with oat milk and Mexican Mocha which were both very good. The Matcha Latte does not come sweetened so I asked to add vanilla sweetener so just a heads up! The service was great, very helpful employees and the drinks came out as soon as we paid. We got the drinks "for here" but when we were leaving we were able to get to-go cups. This is a very cute little coffee shop to get work done or meet up with some friends. You will have to find street parking but it is not too bad. Overall, definitely recommend this place for grabbing a drink or spending some time to chat.

As typical with Temple Coffee, the quality of the drinks are top notch and really is the gold standard in Sacramento. Prices are on the higher side for these premium selections so be aware of that if you haven't been to a Temple before. This location is a bit smaller and has less unique features than other ones. It's perfectly serviceable for a cafe, but the ambiance isn't on par when you compare them. The service, however, was superb. I found the baristas there to be very friendly and warm. It's hard to go wrong with Temple, and if you/re looking for a great coffee drink and near this one, it's certainly worth the visit!

A cute outside patio and plenty of room to sit inside. I got the Pink Chai and my friend and i took our drinks to a park down the street which really set the scene: spring day in the park with a friend and a great beverage. The drink was very hot, which ended up being perfect because I had to enjoy it slowly. The flavor profile was subtle and well balanced, not overpowering or too sweet. I'm a big fan of cardamom and pistachio, so getting both in one drink felt like a win, and they worked beautifully together. The pistachio added a nice, nutty finish. I don't distinctly remember tasting the fennel, but it may have been part of what made the overall flavor feel so smooth. I guess I'll just have to come back and order it again. All in all, Qisa was a treat. Im planning on moving in a few months and started looking at apartment listings near by that would allow me to come to Qisa more often. Highly recommend!
