Update: they did such a good job elevating the space and making it more inviting with tables, decor and even a cute mandarin plant. Matcha Latte is consistently great! Original: Very decent matcha latte. I wish the ambiance had more character and was more inviting to stay. It is a clean cut, light space but feels too sterile and empty, so even if I want to stay and sit at the window to sip my drink I eventually head out. It is more of a take out place I feel.
I totally cop to being a coffee snob. We buy high-end beans and have an expensive Moccamaster machine at home. (A gift I appreciate every day) Consequently, most of the time when I pay $8 for a latte at one of the many fancy coffee shops in our neighborhood, I am typically underwhelmed and wish I had just had our coffee at home. Sippy is one of the rare exceptions. The black sesame latte is so rich and silky I can barely speak while I drink it, and the brown sugar oat latte is almost as good. We got an eggwich recently and it was perfect. The brioche was so light, eggs cooked perfectly, toppings really flavorful. The staffers here are always kind, attentive and quick. They know their stuff if you have trouble deciding what you want. Only downside is it’s not really set up to hang out, it’s more of a grab and go situation. That’s sort of a shame because I didn’t want that breakfast sandwich to get cold, so we ate perched on the stools by the window. It was fine, but not cozy. Will I do it again? 100%. I would hover under an overhang on the curb and be happy with Sippy.
Very nice little coffee shop. Has a few tables outside and the espresso is good with a fair amount of complexity in the taste.
Great cortado, they have lots of facet drinks too but the base, quality espresso is really good. Super nice efficient staff too. Casual litttle coffe shop seating.
This is a coffee cafe with great additions to the menu. The place is smallish with only a few tables. Don't expect too much with the decor. No frills but works Ordered Truffle egg and cheese brioche. It is cooked/prepared as you order. Super. Excellent. Simply yummy . Not to take away anything from the sandwich itsef, I was told that the brioche comes from the notable Manhattan Baltazar bakery. The whole package just works in a fantastic way. One of the best egg and cheese sandwiches I have ever had. Got the ube latte (whole milk) Lovely latte art work. The color is just wonderful. The taste you ask? The coffee is smooth, refined and yet robust. Very nice balance. Wonderful coffee with a hint of ube. Did I mention that the croissants also are from Baltazar? ...with in house cookies and bread loads. One more thing...the service was superb. I had many questions and all were answered and explained in a graceful manner. Can't wait to go and try more of their offerings. This is a great place. Highly recommend
Had the tuna melt and an iced latte with Almond milk. Both were delicious. Staff was friendly. Music was a 90s throwback.
