This place is one of the best local cafes for coffee, teas, and the likes.The reason I cant say its 5 stars is the food can be hit or miss at times. I have gotten my order wrong a couple of times but also had amazing food others.I would recommend this to anyone and you will enjoy the experience you have at Sips!

Love this place. Amazing top notch coffee and amazing customer service. I moved out of the area and still make the trip with my husband almost every weekend to get our Sips fix. If you havent tried their coffee/ baked goods I highly recommend that you do! You wont be disappointed.

The staff here is always lovely, there are always seasonal flavors to try, and their food is quite yummy too. Definitely a local favorite.

Its a nice café. It smells delicious and the food tasted delicious. I had a chicken chipotle panini & a cranberry/pecan salad. My only disappointment was the amount of meat in the sandwich, as you can see in the pic, very little. The 1/2 sandwich cost $5.95 or $6.95. For that it should have more fixins inside. I can get a foot-long at Subway for about the same amount of money. If they will continue to charge that amount, they need to put some food inside of it.

The wait is absolutely ridiculously long. Waited nearly 25 minutes for a single cup of coffee. Other customers were noticeably annoyed with the wait as well. The environment is annoying bc there is literally no reason for people to be waiting that long. The girl with pink hair is rude every time I come in. Coffee is decent but definitely not worth the wait when I can go to Starbucks and wait 1/3 of the time for a cup of equal quality coffee

Stopped in for a quick lunch with my girlfriend. I ordered the Caesar wrap on wheat. It was delicious. If you’re looking for a panini or wrap as a quick lunch stop in and give this hidden gem a try. While not immediately visible from Pattonwood drive, it’s easy to see once you’re in the Herrema’s parking lot. The list of coffee smoothies and frappes was quite well thought out. Their flavor profile on their sandwiches is great. I didn’t get a coffee this time around and was surprised to see they offer college club soda. Fantastic local soda for those who have never heard of it. All in all great staff who were friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back!

A wonderful small place for coffee and other breakfast items! Their coffee specials are great. They had the leprechaun latte for St. Patricks Day, which had Irish cream and mint, and they had adorable Easter cookies.

Such an unexpectedly cute place. Really delicious coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Packed full of local goods and loose leaf tea and coffee. Brought coffee home and was a huge hit. Will definitely be back. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. A great experience for sure!

Im always happy with the quality of their food, the friendly and accommodating service and the yummy teas and cute things they sell. I was happy to see they sell pottery (mugs) from a local artist. In the summer months; be sure to try the strawberry soup!

• Great drinks• Tasty food• Nice atmosphere• Fair prices• Polite (& patient) staffWhat more can you ask for? My now fiancé & I had our 1st date at Sips. We’ve loved this place ever since & we go at least once a month if we’re both off on the same day. Bummed that COVID & now renovations have them closed down but once they’re back open, we’ll resume our coffee runs for sure!

We got Mocha as well. I liked Later better though!Very clean tables and nice staffs I think about how I want to order all of their frozen dessert drinks AND baked goods in addition to my panini and hot coffee. And then that leads me to having another war with myself about what I want to eat versus what I should eat. I want everything they have to offer

Sips is a very nice place with good coffee. Their desserts are also a nice change as well. I think the locations a little inconvenient (especially the parking lot, which is tricky), and the place is a little small. Thats not a big deal, though. I think the environment is nice, but its not really set up to be a sit and relax coffee shop. Their machines are constantly going (which are incredibly loud and makes conversation almost impossible), the music is sometimes too loud, and if there are more than a couple people in the shop, it feels crowded. Some guests usually talk louder (to compete with the noise), making conversation even more difficult. Sitting outside is nice, but usually traffic is disrupting. I think its good coffee at a usual price, but I think a larger (or more conveniently organized) venue would certainly grow Sips popularity. I think its a nice place, and I want to see it do well. :)

Food is good and substantial, coffee is good, chai tea latte is terrible. Tastes watered down with little flavor. Would rather go to The Stir located at I-Square or Starry Nights on University Ave.

Review №49

Ive gone to Sips many dozens of times over the past year and a half. I almost always get a smoothie, a panini and one of their home made cookies.Starting off with the good: friendly staff, nice atmosphere, plenty of seating (except when it gets really busy), and clean establishment. The food variety is limited but it has generally been enough as long as you dont go daily.The bad: in the past 6 visits to Sips I have had two smoothies that were full of chunks of ice and generally unblended, a lukewarm panini with a piece of a butter wrapper in it, a ~$5 smoothie that was only filled 2/3rds of the way, and several very hard borderline inedible vegan cookies.Im not sure whats changed as its the same old faces but the quality of the food and beverages has taken a nose dive. Maybe its just a bad streak of luck for me personally, but at $15+ per trip, I think I might stay away for a while. If Sips had consistent QC it would easily be a 4 star establishment.

Nice little place in a strip mall with a good amount of seating, merch, LOTS of mugs for sale, a wide range of coffee beans and tea for sale, and same for the drinks. Also has a bakery with lots of cookies and other items like banana bread and possibly muffins?I got a chocolate chai and it was great!

DISCLOSURE: I used to work here but I am no longer employed by Sips.Great chai, great coffee and great food. The owner Lauren and her fleet of baristas really know their stuff. She trains her workers for months before they are even allowed to use the espresso machine so you can rest assured that your latte or cappuccino will come from skilled hands! The food is made with fresh produce/ ingredients and everything is customize-able. The workers are friendly, the clientele is friendlier, and the ambiance is fantastic. Definitely pay them a visit. You wont regret it.
