Talitha Coffee Roasters — Restaurant in San Diego

There’s a reason they’re always empty.. I drive by everyday around 8 am on my way to work, there is never a soul inside. My biggest red flag was that they were empty at 9:30 am on a Sunday but I decided against my better judgment to try it on a whim with my wife, I was under the impression it was still West Bean quality, I ordered the breakfast burrito and espresso over ice, espresso was sour and burnt and the final nail in the coffin was the tortilla wasn’t cooked, very white, no brown spots like it was on a pan, very over priced, and because they’re so slow the baristas are always just standing there. Bankers Hill is rich with fun coffee shops please for the love of coffee go anywhere else, the only vibe to experience to be found there is cheug. Donating proceeds to good causes is...

This place is gorgeous and has such a great location. The staff is super friendly. However, I have gone a few times spread out over a few months and it just doesn’t have the quality I would hope. The food options for breakfast or lunch sandwich are fine but not great. I have gotten a different coffee each time and every time is just fine but not great. There’s just a whole lot of fine/okay.

One thing that is really needed are sugar free options for the coffees. I keep hoping that upon my next return, they would have sugar free flavoring as all the coffee shops I have ever been to always have at least one. But, not here.

And, it’s the closest alternative to Starbucks in the area. So, it’s got that...

Amazing coffee shop with excellent customer service. I usually get a short iced vanilla latte and it's perfect each time. One day I forgot to say iced, and they remade my drink no problem, and didn't make me pay even when I offered. The branding is beautiful, and all their coffee and syrups are made in house. Plenty of seating with a great vibe.

I was in SD for a week and went here about 4 days in a row because it's soo good, and each time had no problem finding street parking. It's metered for only $1.25 for 30 mins, and right next to the coffee shop.

The location is prime, because it pretty close to Balboa park, the SD Zoo and on the way to fashion Alley and other shopping, so it's perfect along...
