    Had some extra time before catching the ferry. We had a large group and ordered hot drinks, iced drinks, tea, coffee, and Lattes. There were tons of tea options. Everything tasted wonderful and service was amazing.

    A great spot right in beautiful Downtown Yarmouth. This space is HUGE and can be accessed from the front or back of the building (parking out back or right out front). No need to line up at colon-cleansing chain coffee shops with this gem in town. They make REAL coffee along with lots of snacks and small cafe food items. Staff is wonderful and it's a great place to hang out or get some work done. Not sure if it's dog friendly, but we brought our (well-behaves) hound in to get our coffees to go and had no issues.

    Excellent selection of sugar free syrup  SF almond=thank you!!!!

    Sip Cafe was a wonderful and unexpected surprise when shopping in downtown Yarmouth. The first time I stopped in, the super friendly woman behind the counter helped me invent an iced bourbon vanilla rooibos concoction, that turned out amazing. A few hours later, I stopped by again with two older relatives, looking for a cold drink and a place to rest. While they sat on the comfortable couches, I ordered them an Italian lemon soda and an iced latte which they thoroughly enjoyed.

    Good tasty coffee and very friendly staff. We stopped by in the afternoon to have some coffee and we were pleasantly surprised with the taste!

    Herbalists, espresso lovers, & activists.. this is a marvelous place to start your day. I appreciated the breastfeeding friendly signs and colorful decor. Herbal teas are offered with lengthy and thoughtful descriptions. The dirty hippie (chai latte with expresso shots) is the best I have ever had.

    Nice ambiance and layout. Coffee excellent, which is a big plus in a province where Tim Horton-standard coffee is the norm.

The cold brew Sissiboo coffee was fantastic! We ended up not staying for lunch, BUT the salad, veggie burger and homemade quiche all looked great! I also noticed they offered the tiniest cheesecakes. Perfect for people who only want a little bit when it comes to dessert! We liked this place so much, we're planning to circle back around at the end of our trip!

    Between August 28-31 of this year, I visited my girlfriend's family cottage in Bear River...all the…read moreway from Vancouver! At first, this village looks dull and sleepy, but things are happening in Bear River. Residents are looking inwards to agriculture and local talent rather than outwards to tourists for economic stimulation. One example can be seen in the Flight of Fancy art gallery, which features local and provincial artists, and another can be seen in Sissiboo Coffee Roasters. The unique name 'Sissiboo' was derived from the Sissiboo River in southwest Nova Scotia. This river was named by a Loyalist settler who mistook a Mik'maq who was pointing out six owls ('six hiboux') instead of pointing out the river. Stupid colonialists. Based in the historic 'Rebekah' building, Sissiboo was started three years ago by Erin Schopfer and Jon Welch. After many years of analysing and learning about the coffee industry, Erin and Jon made the careful decision to launch a micro roastery in their hometown. Jon checks each batch by eye, hand, and smell at least four times during his roasting process - a process that is applied to each seven-pound batch. Each batch has an individual roasting time which has to be explicitly followed, a few seconds too long and the batch takes on an undesired flavour. This is different from most roasters, which employ laptops and software and crazy expensive machines to monitor their beans. Erin and Jon do not yet have a storefront or café, but I think this is a no-brainer for their brainchild. I have tried three of their roasts: Fundy Storm (Peru, dark), Tobeatic Wild (Guatemala, medium), and Fly by Night Decaf (Peru, swiss water, medium). I did not like the lack of body and bitter finish of the Tobeatic Wild at all, but Fundy Storm is great as both a dark pourover or espresso. They do, for your information, have an espresso roast as well called Night Owl!
