Sip Café has become one of my go-to spots in Honolulu. It's such a cute little café, and every time I stop by, the service is quick and the staff is incredibly attentive. Everyone is always friendly and on top of things, which makes the whole experience feel welcoming. Their matcha is delicious and consistently good, which is honestly what keeps bringing me back. I've also had their bánh mì sandwiches a few times, and they're so good. The bread has that perfect crunch when you bite into it, and the meat is always savory and packed with flavor. Overall, it's just one of those places that's easy to recommend. Great matcha, tasty food, fast service, and a staff that genuinely seems to care about their customers. read more

I had just fasted for a blood work so I was starving. Came here and devoured my banh mi but there wasn't much to it. Way too much veggies, no pate :( and cold cuts weren't anything special. Their matcha on the other hand was redeeming part of this experience. I got the banana cream matcha. I think this place is more known for their drinks than sandwiches. But the Vietnamese coffee fell short. Their coffee beans or grounds were burnt.. read more

Sip Cafe - Viet coffee and banana cream Matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Please don't get discouraged by my review. Everyone has different taste buds and this place might be for you. Located in a busy shopping, there is plenty of parking but the area does get really busy so I recommend not coming at peak times. Luckily you can order online and pick up your food. There are about 5 tables spread about the cafe with seating. The place was clean and had AC. The staff were friendly and gave helpful suggestions. The service was fast as well. I ordered the roasted pork Banh mi. Personally, the sandwich didn't do it for me. I felt like they could have cut the cucumbers smaller, like shredded or chop them so you don't have this slab of veggie you're gnawing at as you take a bite. I agree with other Yelpers that the price vs the size, it's a little on the expensive side given what you get. It tasted a little bland for me and when you did get to some of the sauce, it was on the sweeter side than what I've had in the past at other places. What I noticed is a lot of people come here for the drinks. After all they are called a cafe and on their sign they list coffee as the first thing. I didn't order a drink but their menu seemed very popular and people seemed to enjoy jt. They do offer free water cups if you don't want to purchase a drink. They do have QR code menus and you can order online or call your order in if you don't want to order in the cafe. Overall, I think it's an up and coming small business that people should give a try. It might be for you. read more

When I first dated a Vietnamese woman, some years ago, I knew next to nothing about Viet cuisine let alone coffee culture. Now, Vietnamese coffee is more prevalent as the US is in its third wave of coffee. But through the years - I have not had a Vietnamese Egg Coffee... Cà Phê Trứng...until the other week at Sip Cafe in the City Square Shopping Center. I believe they opened this January. I had their Egg Cream Latte ( as they reference it ) and it was very good. Viertnamese coffee uses robusta beans and it's brewed strong. Egg yolks are whipped with condensed milk to create a velvety foam...very refreshing and eye-opening - as in not for the caffeine-sensitive. Also, tried their Iced Mango Coconut Cloud Matcha...a special, posted on their counter. It was quite good. They have bahn mi and and serve a few pastries. Open daily from 800a to 400p. Floor space has enough room for 4 tables. Plenty of parking in the shoppitcenter though it can get very busy during peak hours. Metered stalls are on Kohou Street. read more

Enjoyed my sip at Sip Cafe! As a matcha girlie, I was taken here by Li Y. to fill my matcha fix. Matchas are decent, and it's nice they offer food offerings. We came on a holiday morning, not too crowded. The cafe is moderately sized, with a few tables. Not much decor, just a chill space. Ordering was a breeze: look at the menu, order at the register, and wait for your drinks to be called out. The service was kind and helpful. I was indecisive because there were lots of matcha options, but ultimately went for what they're best known for -- Banana Cream Matcha with Oat Milk. The matcha was good, with a not-too-strong profile, and I could taste the light banana. I would say it was decent compared to other matcha shops. I'd be curious to try their other offerings. Sip Cafe is located in City Square Shopping Center. Parking is available throughout the plaza. They're also known for their banh mi, so swing by for a drink and a bite to eat! read more

Sip Cafe - Banana Cream Matcha (Oat Milk) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My hubby and I decided to try this place out last week. The shop is small and has six tables that you can sit at. We went around noon on a Saturday. Four out of the six tables were occupied with a few people walking in and doing take out. We ordered the roast pork banh mi $13, nem sausage (grilled beef sausage) banh mi $13, large banana cream matcha $7.50 sub oat milk $0.50 and a small Viet coffee $5. Both banh mis were delicious. My roast pork had crispy skin and it was tender. I would have preferred a little more meat as there was a lot of veggies. Along with the mayo they put this brown sauce (tasted kind of like hoisin sauce) which kicked it up a notch. The banh mis were smaller than what I'm used to. I still left full though, but not my hubby. He eats way more than I do. The Viet coffee was perfect with the condensed milk. My hubby said it was strong, but he's not used to it. It was perfect for me. I loved the banana cream matcha. I couldn't stop picking at the banana cream, haha. If you like banh mis you should give this place a try. read more

It was alright. The wait for 2 Banh Mi sandwiches took a severely long time. Don't get me wrong, both The Saigon Classic & Pho Dip were good, but it's not something I'd stand around waiting for. read more

As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by any employee that is near the window. They have a few different types of drinks and also banh mi. I got the Saigon classic and the strawberry matcha drink. It was very tasty, the size was proportionate to the price and they didn't short me when it came to the amount of meat. My drink was pretty interesting. Nice real sweet treat for myself especially since I just got back to Hawaii in recent weeks. I did go again for their Vietnamese coffee, and unless you are a real coffee person. This is very strong! Also, the space inside is cute but also very tight. So if you plan to eat inside make sure to secure a spot to sit first. read more

Sip Cafe - Saigon classic - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I've always wanted to try Sip and I got to go twice...in a week. The first visit I got a Banana Cream Hojicha. It was so easy to order since they have an online ordering system where I was able to schedule pick up time. The second visit I got the strawberry shortcake hojicha and a pho dip banh mi with the broth. Again, ordering was easy. It's pretty busy during lunch time so parking was a little challenging but we got lucky. Both hojicha drinks were good and refreshing. Between the banana cream and strawberry shortcake, I really liked the banana cream. The pho dip banh mi was also delicious. Dipping the sandwich in the broth really enhanced the taste. I would definitely get it again. read more

Another great matcha/cafe spot found!! Love love loveeee the Vietnamese iced coffee! Tastes exactly like the ones in Vietnam. Warning, it is strong and will be keeping you awake for hours!

After seeing Sip Cafe's drinks and bahn mis on Instagram, it's been on my list of places to try. I finally had a weekend to check it out. I guess everyone else also had the same idea because there was a line almost out the door when I came on a Saturday afternoon. I didn't realize how popular it was but you could tell people had been waiting around for their food and drinks. I was worried since I had my toddler with me that the order would take long and she was already getting antsy lol. The line went by fast but unfortunately, the bahn mis were already sold out (it was around 1pm). So I just ordered 2 drinks (one for my sister). I got the Egg Cream Latte for myself and a Hojicha Einspanner for my sister. They also have matcha which I will have to come back another time to try. The drinks thankfully were ready fast and they tasted as good as it looked. The Vietnamese coffee was strong and the perfect amount of sweetness. I really enjoyed the egg cream on top. My sister also liked her hojicha. I guess I'll have to try go earlier to get their bahm mis. Sip is located in Kalihi in the City Square Shopping Center. It was pretty easy to find and there is ample parking which is nice. I see why this place is popular! read more

Went here twice because it's a good spot with ample free parking! It's a small cafe, but they have seating inside if you plan to enjoy your drink/food for a bit. Tried 3 different matchas and they all taste good and on point! The strawberry shortcake is on the sweeter side and also gives a fruity pebbles taste. My favorite is the matcha einspanner. Smooth and creamy. Definitely want to try more of their food next time. I tried the roast pork bahn mi, but didn't like the chewy skin of the pork. I did let the sandwich sit for a bit before eating it, so that is my fault. The pho dip is popular and seems to sell out quickly. The service is also quick. The drinks are made fresh but fast as well as the food. Excited to come back! read more

First time coming here last week and it was so busy, absolutely packed! I came for the drinks and they were good but the food was really amazing!

We saw Sip on my Instagram and really wanted to try it out. We opted for their drinks because that seemed really highly rated. My favorite is the Egg Cream latte. Since the coffee is so strong and you mix it with cream on top it's like a nice salty and bitter taste. It's super good I highly recommend getting this!! As for the Vietnamese iced coffee that was really good too. It's definitely more on the stronger side so just be prepared!! The reason why I'm not giving this place a 5 star is because it took around 20 minutes to get 2 drinks and they weren't super slammed, which sucked. But at least the drinks were good. Anyways, I'd come back for the drinks only !! read more

I have been wanting to come here for a hot minute, finally had the day off to check it out. I went in the morning not too long after they opened, it's a weekday so it was not busy at all. Cute little shop with small menu but perfect. They offer some sandwiches as well but I went for the drinks. I've heard nothing but good things about their matcha. I couldn't decided because I do love a good coffee but an even better matcha. So I grabbed both! Iced Hojicha latte 12oz and a 16oz ube matcha both with oat milk. OMG!!! Their latte was perfection and the ube matcha was the right amount of sweet without taking away from the matcha. I will be back again and again every chance I get! read more

Super stoked to see a new Vietnamese spot popping up, especially with the different Vietnamese coffee options that I haven't seen elsewhere on island. Unfortunately, the drinks were average, but the banh mi stole the show! + Drinks: We got a Hojicha Egg Cream and a classic Vietnamese coffee. The Hojicha part was good, but the egg cream was a let down. A little too sweet with no egg cream flavor, 5/10. The classic Viet coffee was good but super strong, 7.5/10. + Food: I absolutely love the banh mis! The bread was crispy on the outside and soft inside, stacked with a lot of fillings, and very flavorful. It'll feel a bit heavy, but the pho broth balances it out. Will definitely be back for the banh mi! + Location: In a big strip mall with Chucky Cheese with plenty of parking that gets busy but people go in and out a lot. + Inside: small restaurant with a few seats. read more

Sip Cafe - Top: Pho Dip Banh Mi, bottom: Saigon special Banh Mi - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The sip is real... This newbie has been on my list for a bit and it says a lot considering their grand opening was on January 5th...when you have matcha I just can't help myself and I can see why many can't as well. Located in City Square Shopping Center this tiny spot offers quite a huge flavor and after a long morning filled with errands you know I was hungry as well and with six different banh mi it was quite the selection I didn't expect but I was debating between the pastrami and pho dip but as there's just three left decided on the pastrami (yum!) which is loaded with white onions, and cilantro along with pate and mayo was a nice and comforting bite. The baguette was perfectly toasted making it soft and light which no struggle or tugging with each bite. You know it had to be matcha though they do have Hojicha and espresso drinks as well but it was the Banana Cream Matcha with Almond Milk very nice and light sip and love the matcha though was a touch bitter and wished it had a bit more banana kick to it but other than that I enjoyed it as I took a moment from adulting throughout the day. The vibe here is nice with just a couple of single tables and banquette seating with four tables as some spots do have outlets for charging is always a plus for me that's on the go (charging as we speak) the decor is basically none very minimalist that doesn't bother me one bit but do love the relaxing vibe it gives as I take a moment to enjoy. Thank you! read more

Happened to the be in the area and thought why not a banh mi for breakfast. Got the Saigon Classic and Egg Cream Hojicha. It's a little pricier for the size for both the banh mi and drink. But when I opened the banh mi, its thick cut meats. The thickest I've seen in most banh mi places. Not much pate spread, very thin silver of cucumber, a strand of cilantro and lots of pickled carrots/daikon. Too bad it wasn't all propionate. The bread has a nice crunch but because I didn't eat it right away when I got it, most of the bread was already soft. If ever in the area again, I want to try the other banh mi. It's very clean inside and very friendly staff. As for the drink, I normally don't drink latte, matcha or coffee. It looked pretty. Gave it away to a friend to enjoy. :) read more

As a Vietnamese girl growing up eating banh mi, I'm pretty particular about it, and I've been seeing Sip recommended all over. I ordered the Saigon bánh mì, and it ended up being a bit underwhelming for me. The sandwich was smaller than expected for the price, and the bread didn't taste like it was baked in-house, a bit soft (which some people do prefer over the crispy crunch). The pickled veggies were on the sweeter side, which threw off the balance for my taste. The drinks were the good. The egg latte was strong and rich, how Vietnamese coffee is meant to be. The banana matcha latte leaned more milky but was still tasty and enjoyable. The location is convenient, though parking can be tricky depending on the time of day. It's worth trying once to try out the drinks, but the bánh mì didn't live up to the hype for me. read more

Sip Cafe is earning a lot of attention, and rightfully so! This trending spot offers Banh mi, matcha and coffee! Free parking in the shopping center lot shared by Chuck-E-Cheese. No restroom for customers. Small size, but seating available inside and benches outside in the lot. Ambiance is nice. Simple, clean and easy on the eyes. They make their drinks look aesthetic! The Banh Mis were good but smaller than I'd hoped. I tried bites of the roast pork, pho dip and special. The baguette isn't as crunchy as I prefer, and you have to pay $0.50 extra for jalapeños. The sandwiches cost a bit more than other businesses, but have less in each bite. They do have a rewards program that offers $ off your next purchase though! The star of the show for me was the pho broth. The sandwiches were pretty good. The egg coffee and banana matcha were alright. The coffee was very strong, topped with a delicate, almost custard-y egg foam. The matcha was not too strong in flavor, and tastes mostly of banana milk--tasty but not matcha-y enough for me. Customer service was excellent despite how busy the staff were. Local businesses deserve the best! read more

Love banh mi's so when I saw this place had matcha too I was sold. I got their roast pork banh mi and banana matcha. Loved both!! Reasonably priced and so fast and friendly. The banh mi was filled with a lot of pork and the bread was crispy. The matcha was really good too with banana flavor that didn't taste too artificial. Can't wait to come back and try more flavors of both! read more

Grand Opening on 1-5-26! I was driving in the City Square parking lot when I saw a new green sign (with white words) for Sip Cafe! It took the place of Jay's Cafe... The friendly cashier, Scott, is part owner. He was very patient in helping customers, taking orders, and calling out finished meals/looking for customers waiting outside on the sidewalk! Wow... this place has been renovated well! It looks totally different... modern, simple, clean, and bright! It was packed when I first arrived, but cleared out in a bit. The jazzy pop music gave Sip Cafe a cool vibe! I ordered a roast pork Bahn Mi and a matcha latte (substitute almond milk for a slight upcharge). Scott politely told me that it would be about a ten-minute wait... sure! At first, i wanted to takeout, but then I changed my mind because i didn't want my sister to see what I was eating... plus, a table opened up for me! Yay! (There are six small, round tables... plus chairs and benches for dining in.) Scott placed my Bahn Mi on a silver tray instead of a brown paper bag. Thank you! Everything was beautiful and delicious! The matcha latte was just right... not too sweet, not too bitter, but perfect! The roast pork... mmm... crunchy skin, luscious, juicy, tender meat with lots of crunchy pickled veggies and soft bread with a slightly crisp crust... whoa! I think it's the best roast pork Bahn mi I ever had!!! #truth If you're in the Kalihi area of Honolulu (near Costco), you MUST check out this hipster café! Wishing this new business much success! read more

this small cafe has been all the buzz on social media lately & knew it was my time to try this place out. I went around 10:40am; it was crazy busy. I couldn't wait inside for my order so if you go on a weekend just be prepared for that. The service was great despite how crowded it was getting. There is seating inside just very limited, so we ate in our car hence the not so pretty pictures. The Nem bahnmi was delicious & packed with a lot of meat + veggies. I don't eat these enough to have a strong opinion on them. But it was tasty! I was more pulled to come in to try their matcha it wasn't my favorite but the whipped cold form topping (Eispanner) made it more enjoyable to finish. My Husbands drink was really good he got the banana cream latte I don't like banana but we both could not really taste it. It was a strong coffee flavor that paired so well with the cream! read more

I'm so happy this opened up in Kalihi and that parking is free! I won't need to drive into Chinatown or Ala Moana lol. Service is excellent. Workers are very polite and they seem to care a lot about their business. It might get hot in the afternoon due to the windows. Tint might help. Yes, the sandwich is smaller than traditional ones, but I like it. The bread although short, has a lot of density and isn't rock hard. The flavor is really good and is different from other places I've tried. I liked the matcha einspanner. The egg cream latte was a bit strong and thick for my liking but to each their own. Prices I feel are 'normal' for today's economy. But I don't mind spending my money on a place I like where the food is good and the service is excellent. They just opened too so I think they'll get better with time. The owners seem young as well so good luck to them in their endeavors as business owners. read more

Okay I feel like there's been an influx of Vietnamese style cafes lately and I'm SO for it. Oh man, not only were drinks here yummy -- although my stomach is sensitive to the creamy dairy-filled cream toppings -- they were fun and different too. I love the egg cream drinks and the strawberry shortcake drink. But besides this, the food! Omg, I'm not one to crave banh mi but their nem sausage banh mi was so yummy I recommended it to others already and plan to go back to get it again. Let's put it this way, I liked Sip Cafe so much I went back twice. In one week! The line can be quite long and you may wait a bit, but no big deal. They're nice and I have no doubt they're working hard in the back. You can call in an order if you really want. I just know I'll be back. So stoked about this! read more

Sip Cafe - lemongrass banh mi - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Was so excited to try this place out because I love me a good Bahn mi sandwich and pho broth. We got there about 2 hours before closing time and they were busy. The small dining area was full with people and there was a couple people in line. I over heard the gentleman behind the register tell the people ordering that they were out of match. I was so disappointed because I wanted to try several of their matcha drinks but had to settle for the coffee options instead. We ordered 5 different drinks (hojicha latte, egg cream latte, Vietnamese iced coffee, Einspanner latte, and banana cream latte). All the drinks were very good and strong. Now for the food! I knew I wanted to try the pho dip sandwich and roast pork sandwich but alas they were out of the pho dip sandwich, which was a beef brisket. They did have the roast pork and I was still able to order the pho broth which cost $3. We also ordered a lemon grass tofu sandwich. The sandwiches are tiny! I left hungry for sure lol, but the quality ingredients and delicious flavor was worth the money. The exception is $3 for a little cup of broth, that's little on the pricey side imo even though the broth was very good. The vegetables were fresh and crisp and the pork was well seasoned with that crispy skin and tender juicy meat. There was also a decent amount after meat under the pile of veggies. My daughter enjoyed her lemongrass tofu sandwich. I'd like to return to try the items they were out of but I'll be sure not to come too hungry, lol. I wish this business lots of success in the future. read more

We came here right before noon on a Thursday so there wasn't much of a wait time but since this spot just opened up a few days ago it may get busier after their grand opening. I wanted to come here because it's the first spot I've seen that has an egg cream Vietnamese coffee. Oh my search is over! The coffee wasn't too sweet and the cream gave it just a tad of sweetness. But their banh mi was so good - from the bread to the filling flavors. The pho dip was tasty too. I'd probably order that with any of the banh mi. There are 6 small tables in its small space and if you're by the window, it may get hot. But I'm still coming back for more of their banh mi. read more

We've come so many time but always pau before we think of taking pictures or doing a review. Haha - it's that good!! Plus, I don't make reviews unless I absolutely enjoy and recommend it. Hands down, the best damn Banh Mi on the island!! We've tried over 10 different locations in Oahu and nothing compares. Mind you, we've eaten Banh Mi all over the world so we have a certain level of expectations for this sandwich. What stands out is the pate and meats, full of flavor. Chefs kiss IMO, if you cannot make the basic traditional banh mi- with the pate, why bother? Clearly this was crafted with heart, traditions and in house so worth every penny. The Egg Foam Matcha is incredible, I have not had this drink anywhere else on the island so definitely a favorite. Highly recommend eating here, you won't be disappointed. read more

Everything tasted amazing! I got the roasted pork n my bf got the pastrami. Everything was really flavorful and moist with sauces. I would like to make a recommendation to the business as I'm Vietnamese and eat banh mi sandwiches a lot. It would be nice if the Saigon sandwich meat was sliced thin like how it is traditionally. I would save that about the roast pork too but I think for it to be crunchy it has to be cut thick like they do. Other than that it was very yummy! read more

We absolutely loved this place! The Einspänner Coffee was delicious and strong, the Einpänner Hojicha had the perfect toasty and earthy flavor. The flavor of Strawberry Shortcake in the matcha drink really came through, while the matcha flavor was lighter, it was still a really delicious match drink. We also had the Blueberry Lemon Cookie. Its was soft but crispy around the edges, just how I like my cookies. We liked it so much we came back again a third time and had more drinks and their Bahn Mi with Pho Dip! All i have to say is...if you try only one thing, it's this!! The staff were nice and friendly and the cafe itself is small, in comparison to the line of people waiting to order something to enjoy. definitely not a deal breaker for me, because by the time I had my order there was always open seats. read more

Went in with my partner and we got 2 classic banh mi and a matcha. Matcha was good :) Very strong and not watered/milked down at all. THE BANH MI THOUGH??? Best I've ever had. Not too tough, good amount of flavor, nicely toasted buns, pork floss was great with the other meats, the fatty parts cooked perfectly, and fresh pickled veg. They do NOT skimp out on anything. The staff were all friendly, kind, and they serve your food to you. Not typical for a cafe! Loved it. The tables were quite small. Perfect for the food and drinks you get here. We meant to come have lunch and study but it's not really a study spot exactly since the space is small. There is no Wi-fi available here but I used a hot spot and the food gave us a nice boost to get some things done! The day we came there ended up being a long line after we walked in. Despite the amount of customers, the food came within a reasonable time and it was so so worth the wait. Even with a lot of customers, the environment set by the shop made it feel less crowded which I loved. Good music, good vibes, definitely check it out. Will be coming back for the banh mi.
