Summer Drink Menu 2024
Summer is officially here, and so is our summer drink lineup! Now that we have six summer seasons under our belt, we have a lot of favorite drinks to choose from. Customers often ask us earnestly to bring back their favorite drink from previous years, but the problem is everyone has a different favorite. This year we decided to take the guesswork out and get scientific about it with an Instagram poll (nothing screams scientific like social media, right?!).

Holiday Drink Menu 2023
The long-awaited holiday season is here, and at Tala we go hard for the holidays… or should I say Tala-days! It has been a hallmark (no pun intended) since the beginning of our company that we celebrate with fun decorations, epic drinks, and an extra measure of holiday spirit. We are blessed all year long to see the connective power of coffee in bringing people together, and this is on display all the more during the holidays. So grab a loved one and meet for for a festive holiday drink at your favorite cafe!

We have some of your favorite drinks returning and one new addition to the lineup, so make sure you stop in and give each a try!
Summer Drink Menu 2023
With the change of each season comes the change in our seasonal drink menu. Designing genuinely delicious seasonal drinks has become a big part of what makes Tala what it is, which is why we’re so excited to share our new lineup each season.
Summer Menu 2020
Our spring menu launch was delayed a few weeks due to COVID-19, but we’re excited it’s finally here! We have several exciting drinks to introduce to you. You will notice some returning drinks and some new. Overall we wanted to bring exciting, refreshing and comfort to the table with this menu. With the shelter-in-place we definitely think these spring drinks will be the excuse you need to get in your car and take a lap out of the house.
