I think this is my top OC cafe! Sip has the perfect blend of delicious and unique drinks, welcoming…read moredecor, and friendly staff. Despite the multitude of new cafes to try in the area, I always come back to Sip for their seasonal drinks. Every few months, they manage to come up with creative flavors that you can't find anywhere else. This Fall, they have Slutty Caramel Apple, Miso Maple, and Abuelita's Vietnamese Mocha, just to name a few. The drinks always look super cute and photogenic, but they taste even better than they look. I love that Sip makes their syrups and foams in-house and whisks their matcha to order, because you can really taste the freshness in the drinks. The matcha flavor is present, but not bitter like some of the more popular OC spots. This balance allows you to taste the seasonal flavors along with the matcha. Their espresso drinks are very smooth and do not taste acidic or burnt at all. There is almost always a line out the door when you visit on the weekends, but it moves quite quickly. Inside, Sip's decor is welcoming and unpretentious, with a picnic-style vibe. They always put up themed decorations and display some matcha, coffee beans, and merch for sale along the wall. Seating is limited, but there is usually a spot to sit while you wait for your drinks, either outside or inside. I have seen some people study/work in the seats near the bar, but I would not recommend because of the crowds. Sip is located in a large plaza, so there is plenty of parking. Sip is definitely worth a try (or ten)!

In regards to the matcha, I feel that the matcha depth gets overpowered. But still enjoyable if I'm looking for a fun drink. The design of the store is very nice and LA-like.

Only problem is there isn't outlets at all the sitting spots. Only two places have outlets. Well decorated interior from the moment you walk in, to the restroom in the back. Appreciate how clean this place is. Love the type of chill music they play. It's like a little hidden gem! Beverages/Service: lots of options! We tried their orange series because that's their signature. The orange was definitely a forward flavor so paired with the hojicha, it was like orange chocolate. Whereas it overpowered the matcha flavor. They want to guarantee satisfaction so they told us they'd remake it. While it's not my preference, it's not bad, so I kept mine. I'm just so grateful they were kind enough to offer the remake. I'd definitely come back.

Their service ethic is one of the things that keeps me coming back. I love their Einspänner, especially when I ask for less cream.

Overall, this is one of those places where the quality of the coffee and the kindness of the staff make the experience really enjoyable.

The garlic noodles with beef were another highlight. Between the delicious food and the wonderful service, Nep Cafe made a great first impression. I would definitely recommend these dishes and also try the recommendations our server suggested.

I was too full to try anything else today, but their matcha and coconut water drinks both caught my eye, so I'll definitely be back to give those a try. Overall, I'd recommend stopping by if you enjoy a strong Vietnamese-style coffee at a reasonable price.

I liked the foam and how it was topped with black sesame seeds. This place has such a cute ambiance with the Halloween decor.

I love how strong but creamy and delicious this coffee is. I'm hooked! I am Vietnamese and I approve of this cup of coffee. While I was there I saw their glorious casing of pastries and I couldn't resist. I ordered and enjoyed: 2 Garlic Bread ($5.35/each), Chocolate Croissant ($6.60), Almond Croissant ($6.85), Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread ($4.75) and 2 Macarons ($3.20). Their pastries are fantastic. My boyfriend doesn't enjoy sweets as much as I do so that garlic bread was good for it. The croissants were really flakey and flavorful. I enjoyed the bread. For the macarons I was given a third one as a thanks for all the items I orders and I liked all 3. Yum! Wish I could come back to support the business, especially with their incredible coffee, but I was told that they will be closing on 7/31/26. I'm so sad I didn't discover them sooner. I wish them all the best and hope they re-open in the future.
