Ordered their breakfast biscuit sandwich. Could use some sauce. Biscuit was quite thick and a little dry. Their iced vanilla latte with cold foam was fabulous tho read more

Sip Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Sip Café is a convenient late-night spot, which I really appreciated since it's open later than most places. It was warm and my cortado was good! That said, it's not very cozy (very bright lights + tables were dirty), and the servers weren't especially friendly during my visit. It feels much more like an ice cream stop than a place to sit and work or hang out for a while--more quick treat than café vibe. Still, the late hours make it a useful option if you're craving something sweet in the evening. read more

Sip Cafe - exterior at night - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I have been driving by Sips Cafe and Mike's Ice Cream on Gallatin for years and finally made it point to stop in on a recent weekend...and for the most part, pretty happy I did. Local, classic style cafe serving up all the coffee and espresso classics alongside pastries, ready-made breakfast treats and of course, house-made ice cream! I popped in for a cold brew and pastry, and got just what I was after. It was around 9am and I had just left the gym, so I decided to skip the ice cream, but it did look and sound tasty...so I will have to update this review once I partake in the sweet goodness of a good scoop or two. For my cold brew, I added almond milk and for the pastry, I went with the ham and cheese. The cold brew was good, nothing spectacular, but it hit the spot. The pastry was warmed up, which was a nice touch. The dough was flaky and the cheese melty, so I was not mad at it at all. Service was a bit odd, not exactly what I was expecting from a local coffee spot. While it was not unfriendly, I would not call it friendly either. It was very transactional, which I know sounds odd given it was a transaction of sorts...but just didn't do it for me from a service perspective. The space has it's own vibe with checked flooring, retro sofas and chairs with cafeteria style tables and chairs and a fountain and plant wall next to the high top table. All of which were a bit worn. Which I take is probably part of the aesthetic, but still worth noting. I love my local coffee spots, and try to support them as much as possible. Sip Cafe was a bit underwhelming for me on my first visit, but I will stop by again at some point. Overall I would give Sip a solid 3.5, which I will push to a 4 without issue. read more

Sip Cafe - Ice cream selection 5/30/26 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Staff were all lovely, we ordered to go and sat outside as we had a dog with us. There are tables and chairs with umbrellas which were great in the summer heat! We came early in the morning and went with the Swiss and spinach omelette as well as the breakfast bacon egg and cheese biscuit sandwich. My partner's omelette he said was really good with loads of Swiss cheese. The breakfast sandwich though we both agreed was the star with homemade biscuit bread, fluffy thick egg, plenty and bacon and cheddar cheese. Each was $7 and left us full! Will definitely be back to check how the coffee is read more

I wish I was around the corner from Sip Cafe. In an era where most corporate coffee is expensive and poor quality, this place is keeping it real. My Pumpkin Pie half sweet latte was perfect. The staff were very nice. I used the drive thru, but the interior looks nice. I recommend you stop in. read more

The coffee was a bit pricey for the taste, honestly. That said, having a drive-thru is a nice touch. The staff seemed a little overwhelmed during the morning rush, but the café itself is huge, definitely a good spot to sit down and get some work done. read more

I've been to Sip a few times now. The ice cream is always good. Creamy and sweet without being overly sweet. My favorite is the cherry ice cream but they didn't have it on this visit. I ended up going with the horchata ice cream instead. It was sweet with the perfect amount cinnamon. It's like someone took the best food truck horchata and put it in an ice cream machine. Delicious! I also got a ham and cheese croissant which had a good flavor but was served cold which was off putting. I didn't expect that so I took one bite and waited till I got home to warm it up. I wasn't asked if I wanted it heated so I don't know if that's something they do. read more

Do not eat here. I got sick straight after eating here. There are FLIES walking all over the pastries in the cabinet as they are not covered! I told staff and she literally shrugged and served the next customer. No care. This place is extremely unhygienic. Coffee ok. Food NO. read more

We love Sip Cafe in our little East Nashville neighborhood. Excellent ice cream selection too!

i don't normally write reviews but my experience was so poor, i feel prompted to do so. food is awful. got the egg and spinach omelette and bf got the ham and cheese bfast croissant sandwich. he described it as "airport food". (slight step up from fast food.) we were hoping the coffee would redeem the place, but it was extremely mid. word to the wise - patronize another café. read more

Such a great experience that I went twice for my weekend visit. I had an espresso milkshake which was exactly what I wanted it to be. Then I went back for breakfast for croissant sandwich and French press. The croissant was nice and soft and the sausage was honestly one of my favorite ever. read more

If you are going to advertise that you have breakfast sandwiches- do not with pride. Horrible biscuit bread that just falls apart, scrambled egg obviously made on a sheet pan and cut in to squares- sausage was so small and dry. UGH! I couldn't wait to go here for breakfast based on the other reviews as I just moved in down the street. It was Just terrible with terrible staff read more

I love Sip cafe! I always get an 8oz latte and it's always delicious. Everyone is very kind here too :) I love the drive through portion as well. read more

Sip has it all: tea, coffee, ice cream! In the morning, they even have the most delicious pantries. Get there early if you want my fave, the ham and cheese croissant. Mike's Ice Cream is divine, and my favorite is nutter butter! The staff is always great! They might even have the patience to take a group photo of your bday an hour before closing. Maybe! (Thank you!) read more

The employees at the drive-thru ask you to leave a tip when you order. I stopped going there because of this. It's very off-putting. Coffee is good but overpriced. The service is always decent, chill atmosphere. If they got rid of asking for tips I'm sure more folks would go. read more

Really nice baristas. It's a bit sparse atmosphere wise but not a bad place to get some work done.

Honestly , this is one of the cuter / character giving coffee shops in town . The vibe is chill , they have a few different things on their menu such as ice cream , milkshakes , different types of coffee but I will say , THE COFFEE IS MEDIOCRE ASF. I find myself coming here a few times a month being it's the only coffee shop that is open past 6pm on Sundays and every time I get the same result.. no matter how much expresso I have them add to my latte , it's never good . So with that being said , if you want some solid ice cream or maybe even a drip pour coffee Check it out !! But if you want a really good latte try madtown or dose . 2 stars based off the quality of the lattes considering it is a coffee shop. read more

Sip Cafe - the interior of a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I LOVE SIP! Everything about it is just fantastic. They have always made my coffee orders perfect, and they offer so many options. I find myself going several times a month. It's also convenient that they have a drive through! My favorite is an iced caramel oat milk latte, but their pumpkin pie just came back and that's worth a try too. They also make all their pastries from scratch! My favorite is the chocolate chip muffin. You can tell they use real butter. I would eat their ice cream every single day, every flavor I have tried is scrumptious. I swear you will not be disappointed. They also give a good amount in each scoop. They also make shakes and malts with any flavor you it! I definitely recommend their chocolate chip cookie dough, nutter butter, and pecan praline! There is a bunch of seating inside and out. Trust me and give sip a try! I do wish they had a punch card or something similar. read more

I really shouldn't have moved into the neighborhood where this little cafe of ice cream & coffee heaven exists. My waistline is not going to survive it. Nor will yours if you give them a try, because you will return, especially for their ice cream. I've tried the Salty Honey (my favorite), Loaded Butterscotch, Praline, Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate...something or another, and Nutter Butter (my other favorite). This stuff is for real - homemade Mike's Ice Cream - and it's to die for. It is also not low fat, not low sugar, not low quality, whatever. It's worth every calorie-filled bite. I just have to limit my visits. My sister is obsessed with their hot-fudge sundae and shakes. Neither of us have ordered a coffee drink yet. I don't see it happening anytime soon since we can't tear ourselves away from that ice cream, but I imagine their coffee-making is just as adept. The service is always fantastic. The employees are super chill and happy and incredibly fast. They don't skimp on portions either. What is it about happy people serving you a big ol' cup of dreamy ice cream that is just so very pleasant? Seriously, go through the drive-thru here, get that ice cream, and enjoy a little cup of heaven to sweeten your day. You won't regret it! read more

Sip Cafe - Nutter Butter - drool! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This place bring me back to San Francisco and NYC village growing up, as soon as u open the door the smell of coffee and vanilla is incredible that make my heart smile. A great alternative to the big coffee chains. The coffee is spot on and made to perfection.... wait did I say perfection? that's correct! They also do ice cream and Malta, shakes and this is the only place with my favorite "rum-raisins" which can't be beat needless to say this is the place for me. The service is awesome no pretentious caffeinenistas. Just great coffee and a chill vibe. I'm happy! read more

This place is so cute! I'm from Seattle and have strong opinions about coffee and I would definitely recommend this spot. They also have the best iced dirty chai, and the scones are good! Will definitely have to try their ice cream sometime. read more

Love Sip, primarily for the ice cream. Great spot to get a cone or a bowl. Highly recommend!

Pastry and croissants are definitely worth the drive. Too bad you can't order them to be delivered

Good coffee and muffin easy place to get too and no one bothered us while talking felt almost private thh

I still enjoy the ice cream here, but man it's kind of a dump. They really need to freshen up the place. Even the trash/straws/napkins area looks like a 1990's church basement. The decor throughout is cluttered, random, and dusty. Maybe drive thru is a better bet? If they just took out all the clutter, cleaned well, and chose one solid decor theme, it'd be a much happier looking place. Service wise, I've had multiple employees who seem super stressed and not friendly while they take our order. I can't give this 5 stars. read more

Sip has consistently good coffee. Iced coffee, lattes, espresso shots, it's all good. Also - drive thru! Their coconut syrup is INCREDIBLE - try it iin an iced latte and it will be your coffee of the summer! Though 99% of the time we go for coffee, I would be amiss if I didn't mention the delicious locally made ice cream as well. read more

James is a very kind soul. He was extremely helpful and quick, which is just what I needed in the moment of not having the greatest day. Sips has always been there for me, and the staffs charismatic gestures and kind interactions are one of the reasons why it stays read more

I'm just a little biased. Sip is my favorite neighborhood coffee shop. Great place to bump into friends in the morning or meet new neighbors. The coffee is always just right. Best muffins and pastries anywhere (get there early!) The folks working there are always cheerful and pleasant. They have sign on the cash register that says "Be Kind"...and they are. Great advice anytime of day! read more

The coffee was good, not the best and not the worst. I had the matcha latte and my friend got the iced Americano. We just went through the drive thru so we didn't see the vibes inside, but the drive thru experience was...interesting. Everything was great until we said that we did not want to leave a tip. We got two easy drinks, no special requests, and went through the drive-thru so did not see a reason to tip. The person working the drive thru then slammed the window shut and did not speak to us when we thanked them for taking our order and giving us our drinks. I understand the frustration if they had served us at a table, but it's a drive thru ‍ read more

Fantastic little coffee shop with ice cream options, pastries, bagged beans to go, AND a drive thru ;) I've been a patron here for 10+ years and almost every reg. latte I've ordered has been fantastic. Recently, I've had a couple bitter and grainy lattes though... read more

Good coffee and a decent selection of ice creams. Fast service and very cool atmosphere, in an old bank. Clean and well priced.

Great little surprise of a cafe! Not only do they have ample parking, a drive thru, and great staff, but their selection on the menu is amazing! And pretty fairly priced! I had a milkshake and I was not disappointed! Definitely a cute place to check out and do some work and have some coffee and ice cream. It is an old bank, so interesting concept, but may not please everyone. Definitely will be back to try out more ice cream and the other items on the menu!! read more

Sip Cafe - a hand holding a cone of ice cream - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I should preface this by saying, I've been a customer at Sip for years. Today, I was tasked with getting coffee for work. Admittedly, it was a lot of drinks but I gave them a heads up & also mentioned I would leave a nice tip. I was immediately treated like an inconvenience by the cashier. After I paid and left a $16 tip on a $75 order, I was apologetic about the number of drinks. The cashier rudely said to me, "Yeah, we aren't really the place to handle this many drinks." I'm a band assistant. I go to Sip every time we have rehearsals because they can handle this many drinks. I always try to go in the afternoon when they are less busy, NEVER in the morning do I order this many drinks. I always tip at least a dollar per drink. When they finished making my drinks they called out "150 drinks!!" I honestly can't believe I was being shamed for simply being a customer and supporting my local coffee shop. Trust me, I didn't want to be ordering that many drinks but I was just doing my job and apparently expecting too much for them to do the same in return. I promise never to inconvenience them with my business ever again. read more
