The space was absolutely beautiful, the customer service was outstanding, and the menu offered so many unique and tempting options that it was hard to choose just one. From the welcoming atmosphere to the delicious drinks, this was a coffee shop experience that certainly didn't disappoint.

We got in right before the rush, but felt the need to hurry and order because folks were steadily coming in right behind us. We decided to try one of their chicken sandwich, and one of their beef sandwiches. Both were in a croissant and were heated up, it was absolutely delicious. Sort of like a kebob in a sandwich, full of flavor and not dry at all. To drink, I got the mango cloud matcha, and it was so good! It sort of reminded me of a mango sticky rice with matcha. But I was told to come back and try the Banana latte, so I definitely will get that next time. Overall, a really pretty coffee shop and the staff was super friendly and answered all of the questions including giving recommendations. The parking lot gets kinda crazy during busy times but there is parking all the way around the building so be sure to circle around.

Love that the leftovers get poured into a little cup as well, so you're actually getting all that you've paid for. The drinks are pretty sweet but you could always ask for less pumps to make it less sweet This location is pretty small so not much room to sit, that's the only downfall.

There are many things on the winter menu that I would love to try next time I am back. The scone was huge and very flavorful. And the brown butter latte was a nice warm treat on a cold Chicago morning. The employees behind the counter were nice and friendly and helped me decide my drink for the morning. It was between the miso caramel latte or the brown butter latte, and I went with the brown butter. Nice chill coffee spot with great options. They have a nice cozy couch in the front and heard they have a nice big sitting area in the back that I didn't have time to check out. Til next time!

My Tiramisu Latte (winter drink) was really good. Smooth, not bitter, & clearly made with care. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. The space feels cozy & welcoming, not rushed or loud, which I loved. Staff was friendly & easygoing, which always makes a difference. This feels like the kind of place you'd come back to again & again, whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or sitting for a bit. Definitely worth a stop I attached the menu that I recreated in Canva from the one hanging in the coffee shop since it was a bit hard to read in the photo, along with the Winter Menu.

They have a Dubai chocolate latte that is really good, I've gotten it twice (and I always appreciate when a coffee shop has oat milk)! Their breakfast sandwiches are delicious too- also very large, which I appreciate! Prices are maybe a little high, but I don't mind because it's a local shop and everything they do is delicious!

Indoor seating is limited however, both locations offer outdoor seating during warmer months. We live in Lindenhurst and there is an empty bank building downtown.

Just putting this out there as I hope at some point, they will consider a third location.

Some customers were there to socialize and others were camped out to work from their laptops. I snagged the second-to-last table when I arrived, and the last table was claimed a minute later. In addition to coffee, lattes, cappuccino and other similar drinks, Tala offers a small section of muffins and pastries as well as a small lunch menu. I'd love to go back and try a sandwich with my next latte. The location is odd, in an industrial area off the beaten path. But considering the crowd in there, the word is clearly out and people are flocking to it!
