Stopped by Delah Coffee while rushing to work, and they truly came through. I asked for a quick order, and they made my favorite drink fast without losing quality. Big thanks to Emile for the kindness and great service, even with a busy line. Appreciate the owner as well. Amazing coffee and service highly recommend! read more

Delah Coffee - Yemeni Late - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

I came here twice and it's a great spot to study or hang out. The space is comfortable, spacious, and has a relaxed vibe. Since I started summer school online I will definitely come more often to study here. The staff were friendly, and they even had the World Cup game on, which made the experience even better. The coffee was excellent. It may be a bit pricey for some, but compared to others this coffee shop is one that I wouldn't mind paying. I got the Biscoff latte with an extra shot, and before that I tried the pistachio latte, which ended up being one of my favorite pistachio lattes I've had in San Diego. Definitely a place I'd come back to for both the coffee and the atmosphere. read more

I'm genuinely glad I gave this place a second chance because the difference from my last visit was night and day--in the best way. The Turkish coffee alone is worth coming back for: beautifully presented, perfectly brewed, and rounded out with that warm cardamom finish that actually lingers in a good way. The baklava was the ideal pairing--sweet, flaky, not overly heavy. We also tried the cinnamon date latte and the cheese + honey pastry (made by the owner's mother!!), and both were standouts. The latte is cozy without being cloying, and the pastry tastes homemade in the way you hope it will--simple, rich, and clearly made with care. You can absolutely tell there's intention behind everything here. The space itself is bright, thoughtfully designed, and culturally grounded in a way that feels elevated but still comfortable to sit in for a while. read more

Might be best for coffee but I don't drink coffee so I wouldn't know! I got their iced banan pudding matcha which was ok. $7.45 and it looked sooo pretty but taste wise the matcha flavor is not fully there and it was just ok. I wouldn't order again. Got the Turkish baklava chocolate one and it was delicious! So glad there's one in this area. But it was a bit pricey $5.75 for two pieces but I know I work that goes into it. I'd get it again! Lastly for the biscoff milk cake which is similar to tres leches. It just looked so cute! But honestly I wouldn't get it again. 2.5/5 to me. It wasn't horrible but I'm not a fan of wet cakes like tres leches but I thought I'd give this a try! Still worth a try. But not for me. Not too sweet so I did like that. It was still a lil dense but yea not for me. Overall cute place with nice staff! read more

Im becoming such a pistachio fan My friend recommended @delahcoffeehousesandiego to me and hyped up their Pistachio Latte -- I was not disappointed! If you're ever in North Park, Delah is an Authentic Arabic Coffee Shop with a great selection of good teas, coffee, and/or any of their delicious sweets and treats they have. I ordered the Pistachio Latte half sweet just in case and it is delicious. Some friends of mine have already gone back multiple times! PLUS! They are open until 11pm on weekdays which is so hard to find for coffee shops when you need to work late, study, or simply enjoy coffee with a friend in the evening. read more

I hate to update my review, but the way management or owner treats their employees/baristas makes patrons feel uncomfortable. I have encountered this on multiple occasions. Granted, this place does have some good drinks and sweets. It's a good place to hang out and or work, but I will not be coming back as there are many other coffee shops in the area. Hope this place improves. read more

Delah Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

My first thought when entering was that this place had a nice vibe and the decor was cute. I had time to notice this because I had to wait in a line of 2 people in front of me which took quite a bit. When I made it to the front I placed my order, the girl was kind. I ordered a banana foam matcha and I was somewhat disappointed because they only offer one size for that specific drink I chose. When I received my drink I noticed that there was another matcha drink in a bigger sized cup and I asked the barista about the sizing and she said that's the matcha latte. She then kind of brushed me off leaving me no room to ask questions. She wasn't entertaining my discontentment..I took it as rude, but she may not work well under pressure and she was irritated. Any how, not planning on returning. The matcha was nothing to rave about. read more

Delah Coffee House is such a beautiful café and definitely more than just a coffee stop. The space is modern, cozy, and full of elegant details that make it feel special and inviting. What stands out most is how unique everything feels, from the Yemeni coffee offerings to the gorgeous pastry display. It's the perfect place to try something different and enjoy flavors you don't see everywhere. Great for catching up with friends, getting work done, or enjoying a peaceful coffee break. Definitely a café experience worth visiting. read more

The pistachio latte at Delah Coffee might be the best drink I've ever had. It was rich, creamy, nutty and they definitely didn't skimp on the amount of pistachio. Highly recommend for any pistachio lover. The interior is modern with plenty of table and couch seating options. There are gluten free and vegan options of sweet treats with traditional items like baklava. read more

Saw this coffee place on IG and immediately knew I wanted to check it out for the date latte they have. Place is spacious and decorated with what I think is a modern Yemeni decor. Plenty of drink and pastry options. I decided for the yemeni latte as well as the date latte. I couldn't really drink the date latte bc of the dairy (lactose intolerant here), but did take a sip to try. Loved the date latte. Yemeni was good too, but if I could have dairy I would have completely drank the date latte. Barista was super kind and patient with all my questions. She made stunning and delicious drinks. Definitely coming back! read more

In this unique Yemeni Cafe, there are lots of seating inside for you to enjoy some delicious tea, coffee & desserts! The baristas are very kind & quick to take your order as you walk in. They have a variety of options for drinks & desserts that all sounds mouthwatering. * Delah Mofawar Coffee - 8/10 (the cardamom was quite strong & slightly took over the aroma of the coffee. the quality of the coffee is good, but it was different to us to have the coffee grounds at the bottom of the cup) * Princess Baklava - 7.8 (i thought that the pistachio filling was the perfect sweetness, but i wish the layers were more crispy & flaky. having bits & pieces of pistachio would really elevate this baklava) * Rose Milk Cake - 8/10 (i loved how it was super moist and decadent. the rose flavor stood out very well, however the actual bits of flower incorporated in the cake was quite overwhelming. nonetheless, cake overall was super tasty and not too sweet!) read more

An Arabic‑style coffee shop -- unique and definitely worth a try. This place is usually busy every time I walk by, so I finally decided to stop in. The space is large with plenty of seating, and a lot of people come here to work or study. There's usually a line to order, but the drinks come out quickly. They give you a buzzer so you know exactly when your order is ready for pickup. They have a huge selection of sweet and savory pastries and specialty drinks. I asked the barista for recommendations that weren't too sweet and for a savory pastry. I went with her picks: an iced Yemen latte with less sweetener and the beef‑and‑cheese pastry warmed up. Both were excellent and had a distinct Arabic flavor profile -- new for me, and I loved it. They also offer validated parking, which is rare and such a plus. I'd recommend this spot if you're open to trying coffee that's a little different from the typical European‑style cafés. I'd definitely come back. read more

This is one of the newer cafes in the north park area and we LOVE IT. Decor is cute and lots of space to either work or connect. Definitely see a lot of folks meeting and hanging, which is nice to see. Selection of beverages and bites are unique and tasty. My husband and I like their hot chocolate. It's probably one of the best I've had and we go atleast once a week to treat ourselves. It's not too sweet and have a nice nutty flavor, though I do order it with almond milk and honestly, it's the way to go if you're not allergic. Staff is pretty friendly and they have a beeper system to keep the service moving and convenient while you wait for your order. Will try something else soon. Stop by! read more

Delah Coffee - Bee bites were bomb + pistachio latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

If you were missing a late night coffee shop this is the place! It's open until 11pm and they have an amazing variety of drinks, flavors and desserts. It wasn't busy when we walked in around 5pm during the week and lots of available seating inside to chat or be productive and work (free WiFi). I loved my date latte with a sweet cold foam on top and my friend loved the Yemeni latte for the cardamom. The only thing I would not recommend is the mango fruit cake--that was such an unpleasant texture, it was gelatinous and tasted like a creamsicle not a mango. Stick with the milk cake!! So moist and flavorful. read more

Their drinks are incredibly flavorful and unique. I always go for the date and pistachio, and both are so rich and satisfying.

Giving this place a four because of the atmosphere. The coffee pot I got was for two but could easily be shared with 3-4 people. The coffee itself had a lovely rich infusion of chai spices. I did think it was much lighter on the coffee side and heavier on the other spicws. The strawberry coconut drink I ordered for my daughter was really good! I would recommend this drink! This is definitely a sit down coffee shop not really a grab and go. The decor was very nice and inviting. There are lots of different seating areas for you to grab and even a private meeting room you can sit in. I'm not sure if it's reservation or first come basis. The more formal seating areas inside the cafe such as the sofas are for parties of 6 or more. My only suggestion with this place is redirecting the line.. so you can look at the food display first before ordering. The reason being is that the sweets and line are at opposite sides so by the time you get to the cashier you're taking additional time to look at the large selection of pastries and desserts but then feel extra rushed because looking and asking takes up more time. If you're one who is mindful of others and do not want to hold up the line it can be very anxious experience. I liked though that by the time I got to the cashier to take my order the staff was very kind helpful and did their best at explaining certain items and providing recommendations but with that being said it's not very efficient and can be time consuming therefore building up wait time for the line. read more

This is definitely a coffee shop with a different vibe than anything else in town. I love that they have traditional Turkish pour over coffee as well as a lot of different types of uniquely flavored lattes. I went kind of basic with just a pistachio latte, but it was a delicious drink. My man got a drip coffee with a little cream... He said it was just okay. Nothing special about the roast. We ordered two little desserts. Tried the lemon and coconut Turkish delight at the recommendation of the girl working behind the counter and also tried a Jordanian pistachio phyllo roll situation. OK, so to be honest, the Turkish delights are just not my thing. I traveled to Austria this past year and they had a huge market with a large section specializing in these Turkish pastries and I tried a bunch of them and I just can't get on board. They are weirdly chewy and not in an enjoyable way. Not to say there's anything wrong with it, it's just not my taste. The Jordanian pistachio roll was outstanding. I thought the service was good and the place is really nicely appointed and very clean. They served our desserts on very pretty gold plates that were much too large for the items we ordered lol, it looked nice, but was kind of a pain in the ass trying to carry it with our coffee drinks too. We started out sitting outside, but moved inside when a table became available because it was pretty hot in the late afternoon sun. I look forward to going back and trying some of their other lattes and I've got my eye on those milk cakes too. read more

I was fighting for my life after being jet lagged at 4 pm on a weekday and was desperately searching for a coffee shop that was still open. Luckily I stumbled upon Delah, which was open and welcoming. The inside of this place feels high end but approachable, and the owner was so nice. He explained what was in each of the specialty coffees, I ended up going with the Delah Qahwah which had ginger and cardamom in it, and was more delicious than the double espresso I was originally going to order just to make it through the day. It looked like this is a spot where people meet up to chat for hours which makes sense, the chairs are comfortable and there's lots of space to sit. A few folks were getting some work done at the tables as well, so if you're looking for a spot to work out of I'd give this one a try for sure. read more

What a great coffeehouse this is! The cold Pistachio Lattes made by Emily and Halie were delicious! The free SSG h pistachio baklava was wonderful (and big - shared by two). Mo, the owner, is very engaging and kind. Since we came down from Rancho Bernardo, he treated us with a few sweets. The service is excellent and the coffee very tasteful. read more

Delicious coffee and food in a great location. I don't always get crafted lattes but Delah's pistachio one is delightful! I've tried several of their bites, but my favorites are the Rose Milk Cake, the Turkish Delights, and the Pistachio Baklava. A personal tip: get a turkish coffee to complement the sweetness of the pastries. And try one of their iced lattes. So good! read more

I've had Delah saved on my list for a while and finally stopped by on 1/24- landing right in the middle of their ribbon-cutting celebration. Wrong day to study, right day to vibe. The space is huge with tons of seating, regular tables, comfy lounge chairs, and even a tasting room. Plenty of room to spread out, which I loved. They also had a DJ, small tables set up, and someone doing henna tattoos, which was fun to watch. That said, it was definitely loud, understandably so, given the celebration. Food-wise, we tried the honeycomb bread with cream cheese filling and wow, so good. Soft, sweet, and absolutely worth ordering again. We also tried another cream cheese option that fell a little flat flavor-wise, but the honeycomb more than made up for it. I ordered a pistachio latte, asked for it iced, but it came hot and honestly kind of lukewarm. It might've just been the chaos of a busy event day, so I'm not holding it against them too hard. Overall, the atmosphere was lively, the space is beautiful, and the desserts are a win. I'd definitely come back because this feels like a spot with a lot of potential. read more

My sister and I had this place on our list for the longest time and we finally went, and brought our mom along too! The second you walk in, it honestly feels like you've been transported somewhere else entirely. Every corner is packed with Arabic details and decor and it's so cool to look around. We found a cozy little spot pretty easily since there's plenty of seating, tables and even a few mini sofas scattered around. I could honestly just hang out there all day, the vibe is so relaxing. For drinks, my sister got the Turkish coffee and I went for the popular cinnamon date latte. We also grabbed a few different baklavas and pastries to share. The baklavas were good but a little too sweet for me personally, though they paired really well with the Turkish coffee. I had a small sip of my sister's and wow, that stuff is NO joke. I thought Vietnamese coffee was strong but this hits completely different. It's bold and gives you such a kick, definitely not for the faint of heart! My cinnamon date latte was so good though. It came with a little stick of real dates which was so cute and the latte art was adorable. Super Instagrammable for sure. There was a small wait for the Turkish coffee since it's made fresh but totally worth it. The staff were all super friendly and overall it was just such a good experience. If you're in North Park, do yourself a favor and check this place out!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Food that I ordered was great -it was still pretty early so I kept it light with some kunafa and pistachio baklava to go with my Yemeni Latte. The latte is fantastic with its cardamom flavor, was exactly what I was looking for. Really loved the pistachio baklava. Service was good, considering how busy it got during my 35 minutes there. The rest of the team showed up and the drinks were coming out in a very timely matter. The decor inside was pretty modern, dimly lit, with some hand painted murals inside that add some character to the space. Can't wait to try the milk cakes next time. read more

While walking around North Park on a Sunday afternoon, we decided to stop by for coffee and pastries. We ordered a Lemon and Coconut Turkish Delight and the Jordanian Phyllo pastry. For drinks, I had a drip coffee and my fiancée had the pistachio latte. The drip coffee was just okay--a bit thin on flavor--but the pistachio latte was delicious, with a light roast flavor and perfect level of sweetness. The Lemon and Coconut pastry was well-balanced (not too sweet!), and the phyllo pastry was excellent, featuring whole pistachios and a subtle sweetness. I'm looking forward to returning to try an espresso-based drink and more of their unique pastry selection. The vibe is very chill with plenty of seating, even during the Sunday afternoon rush. read more

Delah Coffee on trendy 30th St in North Park opened over a month ago. Parking nearby is a challenge. Upon entry, was cordially greeted by the nice staff, the ambiance of this cafe was extraordinary, as the seating areas all look inviting, soft music played in the background and the tasteful exotic of middle eastern decor is exhibited throughout. The display case of desserts and baked goods was alluring. My devilish self wanted to order everything but my angelic self seems to have more control... :) Looking for something interesting and unique, I ordered the pistachio milk cake. This cake was plated nicely in its bright green pistachio fluffy cake in a pool of creamy milk it tasted devine. To pair my delicious dessert, I ordered a Pistachio Yemeni latte with almond milk, which was also presented nicely but... upon the first sip, second and third sip it was a major disappointment; it lacked caffeine fort, lack taste and it was a waste of my time and $$. Because the staff were so nice, I didn't want to make a scene or complain, but sadly this drink ruined it. So, lots of ther reviews mentioned the same dissatisfaction with their drinks, I gave this place the benefit of the doubt and it's too bad this poorly executed drink rates a 1-2 star :( I'm reluctant to order any drinks here. The horrible Yemeni latte could NOT earn my 5 stars. But for the delicious desserts and the lovely ambiance of this cafe it deserves a visit. read more

Just an fyi, the storefront is along 30th st! I mapped to it using the directions from Yelp and ended up being in the back alley lol. What's good about this is (unbeknownst to me at the time) is that it's their back parking lot area and there's a QR code to validate once you get to the store. With parking being a premium in NP this is a huge plus. I tried their Yemeni coffee (spiced coffee), which reminded me of chicory coffee. And even though it was 730am they had a huge case of desserts that was just beckoning to be tried. I got the kadaifi, something I've never tried before. It's got the texture of frosted mini wheats soaked in honey and topped with pistachios. I love that I got to try something new. There's also a huge amount of space with comfy chairs to socialize/study at. read more

This is a newer place that opened in North Park and it's a total gem! The store itself is very spacious with lots of seating options inside and a nice, cozy vibe. I would definitely post up here to do some reading or computer work. The staff were really friendly and our drinks came out in a timely manner. To eat, we got the special baklava -- it's a bit pricey at $15 per slice but it's also extremely flavorful (not too sweet, not too savory). I'd recommend getting this if you go. To drink, we got the pistachio latte and the rose latte. The rose latte wasn't too strong on the flavor, more subtle which I found really enjoyable. The pistachio latte stole the show, definitely the best drink we got! Perfect balance of sweet and nutty and topped with crushed pistachios -- I'll absolutely be back for this drink! Good quality espresso, great flavors and delicious pastries -- what more could you want? read more
