I've visited SIP 3 times over the past few months and the staff has been helpful with recommending drinks and have been friendly all 3 visits. I tried the iced carrot cake latte during my last visit and loved it!!!! I've also had a caramel macchiato and caramel/cookie butter latte and have enjoyed each of these drinks. I like that there is plenty of seating on the upper and lower level. It's a great place for meetings, work, or catching up with friends. read more

Sip Coffee is hands-down my favorite coffee shop in the area. They've got something for everyone--coffee, tea, smoothies--and plenty of flavor options, including sugar-free.

Good coffee shop Good people an price for coffee is very good and well mead people are fast an with smile

What a busy coffee shop. I was there twice when I was in town and it was busy both times! I completely understand that a lot of people like to vibe there and it's a great place to work if you like a to have something in the background. A cute shop overall. The drinks are just ok... it's very watered down and nothing was outstanding about it. The staffs were nice and polite. And I was told that hot people go there read more

I think it's obvious of how much a person loves the Sip when they know the best times to visit. Saturday early mornings is one of the best times -- you may catch some live music or a mini-orchestra session while sipping on a delicious cup of whatever coffee you love. The service is impeccable! The drinks and food options are great! read more

SIP is good times. Been coming on and off for about 7 years now and they have never once disappointed. It also feels like the clientele has been growing steadily. I think it's noticeable for me because I'm not here all the time, but only come once every few months or so. Because I'm not in this neighborhood during the hours that caffeine is required, I'm always regretful that I don't get chances to try too many coffee variants. I usually end up getting their seasonal items, which usually are some sort of lattes. I do remember not being disappointed, the few times I had gotten their pourover or chemex brews, so I have nothing bad to say about them. I will take SIP coffee over the other giant starry franchise brand every time. :-) read more

It was my first time at this coffee shop and the employees were very respectful and great service and great coffee but the owner was very rude not only to customers but the way she was speaking to her employees too! I overheard her telling her employees that "if you want to work under me you cannot look like this". Etc. Overall great coffee but owner was very disrespectful and rude. read more

What a cute coffee shop close to everything! They have great coffee selections, on-the-go food options and sit down menu items! Right when I walked in I was greeted with the biggest smile! The staff was so nice and extremely accommodating to me and my little. I was asked if I wanted to start a a "Passport" with them that is a stamp book to get you either a free shirt or sweatshirt! Such a cute loyalty program they have that I'm sure I'll be using in the future. I ordered the coffee special, avocado toast, and some yogurt. They had such a great selection for food options as well as other coffee options. One of the baristas brought a high chair to our table and we sat and enjoyed our breakfast. When we got up to leave I noticed they had a whole other level! This place is so awesome and hoping to make it a regular place of mine. read more

Sip short for 'Socially infused people' offers great coffee & top shelf creamer. Good quality creamer is the perfect way to top off coffee. There's a clean, clutter free area to study & be studious upstairs. You can focus on your work as the high ceilings & windows take the edge off & help the creativity flow. A library room is available to rent upstairs as well. Downstairs there's more of a cozy talkative space. Outdoor seating also available.  The music is subtle & blends in like cream in coffee. Subtle music key for a coffee house. The staff is kind. I talked to an employee, and she said that really enjoys working at Sip Parking available in the store's lot. There's also street parking. read more

More good coffee in a cute and minimalist shop! It's two floors which is neat as the second floor is a quiet zone.

Last time I went in, the coffee was free of grounds. Yay. Still weirdly cramped layout. But at least coffee was good. read more

First time trying this place and it was packed. But the service was fast and we barely waited to order or receive our order. I had a peppermint mocha which was delicious. I love that they use chocolate milk to make their mochas. Yum! The pastries looked very good but we did not get one. read more

SIP Coffee - big Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

I had higher expectations, given the crowds and reputation. I don't hate it but meh. Lemme explain. I've been here about 4x over the last year. Their lavender latte is just ok - has a harsher taste than other places. They do have pour overs but mostly focus on dark roast which is ew to me. They have a variety of snacks. I did like the $5.50 raspberry tart. At flying Joe those pop tarts are $6 so that's a good deal (kinda lol). The area is small but I'm pretty sure there's an upstairs. It's just often busy so hard to find space. It's not an environment I like but it does look cute read more

I'm not a huge fan nor do I hate this place! Which is why I gave it 3 stars. To me it's average. A friend of mine and I went during a pretty busy time on a Sunday. It seemed like people were just flooding in one after the other. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and quick. Everything was made really well too and it seemed well-staffed. My biggest complaint about this place is the lack of space. They have a nice second floor but if you have a kid in a stroller, are in a wheelchair, use a walker, etc. it's not the ideal place to go, especially since it is almost always packed. It's definitely a place, I find, that caters to certain people. I love the layout of the furniture but for how busy it gets and how many individuals come in regularly it doesn't seem fitting. There will be plenty of space but you have one person taking up a 4 person table and then there's no space. It's just claustrophobic, even though I don't mind smaller spaces. read more

If like me, you spent a good chunk of your formative teenage years in early 90's, sipping coffee at Sufficient Grounds inside of Cricket West, you might like me, experience a specific type of joy when walking inside of SIP coffee on a busy Saturday morning. Secor and Central have long been associated with coffee and conversations in Toledo and while the pandemic slowed things down, SIP has evolved into *the* modern day coffee shop to connect with friends, colleagues and even community when in West Toledo. Welcoming staff support your front of the house experience, and with pastries from All-Crumbs bakery, as well as odds and ends like CBD infused sodas, you'll find what you need to get you going and sustained throughout your day. And with amazing people watching, it can be an entertaining place to get some work done. Locally owned and highly recommended for a great coffee house experience. read more

SIP Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

I visited SIP on 4/19 at 3:18 PM, and the service I received was disappointing. The employee who helped me didn't hand me my food or my to-go bag--she just tossed it on the counter without a word. I was the only person in line, yet she completely forgot my coffee. It wasn't until a coworker reminded her--about 10 minutes later--that she finally made it. No apology, no "have a good day," nothing. SIP, you can do better. Basic customer service goes a long way. read more

I went in there yesterday for the first time and it was absolutely amazing. The raspberry cheesecake, danish, and the lemon danish.... OMG flaky, perfect amount of lemon zest. The raspberry cheesecake danish was awesome. And I can't forget about the young lady at the front desk. Simply adorable, very patient, very professional. PERFECTION thank you so much for the excellent customer service. I can't remember her name that was at the counter around maybe between five and six o'clock. Total sweetheart,, she deserves a raise. Sip is all right with me. read more

SIP Coffee is an upscale coffee house with lots of gourmet beverages (coffee, tea, juice) and decadent breakfast, sandwich and snack selections. I've never eaten there, but everything looks delicious. I discovered this spot when looking for a place for a writing group to meet in the evening. While many coffee shops close in the afternoon, SIP Coffee is open until 8pm. The ambiance is welcoming, open, modern and very clean. There are lots of seating options both on the main floor and the second floor loft area. This place attracts a diverse crowd. The barristas are very friendly and aim to please. They are always polite and appreciative to receive a tip. There is upbeat music playing on the speakers and the vibe is lively. SIP Coffee is extremely well run and even the bathrooms are very clean. I highly recommend this spot to meet up with friends or to come hang out with your laptop and your favorite beverage/snack! read more

SUCH A SHAME . This coffee shop has soooo much potential. Amazing location, awesome building, great vibe, decent snacks and pastries. But..... the coffee is absolutely terrible. I've continued to try to give them a chance and try different drinks, both hot and cold. The employees are college students who know nothing about coffee or espresso and the end result is burnt flavorless coffee. A basic K-cup tastes better than this shit. read more

Let's start with 5 stars. SIP is locally owned. It's not a chain. It's not even a franchise. There's one, and only one, SIP. Excellent. Still five stars. SIP is located smack dab in the middle of the Toledo metro area; it's in Cricket West shopping center (think: Zingo, Calvino's, Carlos que pasa, etc). 5 stars, still. Nice atmosphere. Really nice. It's clean, modern, light, and bright. In fact, maybe it's too clean, modern, light, and bright. Whenever I walk in, I almost feel as if I'll be besmirching or, even perhaps, defiling SIP. They really should provide Uwabaki slippers, or something. SIP damned near aseptic. Definition(s) of aseptic 1a : preventing infection 1b : free or freed from pathogenic microorganisms 2 : lacking vitality, emotion, or warmth Note definition 2...but still, 5 stars. SIP is expensive for what you get, period. The coffee and coffee products ain't bad, but they're not that great either. You're definitely paying for the location and the atmosphere. Minus one star. Service: I've been here more than a few times. Almost always, the service has been either slow, inaccurate, or both. It has always been friendly...excepting for one time when a snotty little barista rolled her eyes and scoffed at my wife for making an (admittedly) unusual request. Minus one more star. The food is just exactly what you'd expect at a coffee shop. If you're expecting great food, you may not be comprehending the purpose of a coffee shop. So, if you ARE hungry, remember that you're surrounded by good/great restaurants. So right now, we're stable at three stars, but I must admit, it seems like SIP should be higher. Let me double check my arithmetic... read more

SIP Coffee - Unlike most of my other photos, this shot demonstrates that my left thumb IS, contrary to popular belief, opposable! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

Great ambience ! Food and cold brew were very good so loved the orzo, but it's so expensive for a single serving . Very nice employees! I would love to eat here more often however, a drink, a sandwich, and a side is over $20. Unfortunately, that's too much for me to pay on a regular basis. Need a meal deal also bummed because I received the charge card receipt not the receipt with the words on it for clover points read more

SIP Coffee - Mozzarella pesto, Panini, Greek orzo, and a cold brew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

It was my first time there. The coffee was horrendous. Very watered down and expensive. Not worth it at all. Poor customer service. Was repeatedly verbally scolded by the worker for something little. Overall, 2 out of 10 experience. read more

Cappuccino is not good. You can taste it was burned. I asked them to remake it and they were nice enough to remake it but the second one still burned flavor. I tried the matcha drink as well and I didn't enjoy it at all. Peanut butter cookie was extremely crumbly and hard. I know we pay for the place, decors and atmosphere I come here on each weekend so I would expect for a loyal customer who comes to hang out with friends and business meetings at least my beverage would be acceptable. Please make sure the beverage and the food is worth eating. The ambiance is good. read more

Still a disappointment... sigh. Why is it everytime I come here I'm over charged and looked at like I'm crazy when I place a simple order. How do 2 shots of espresso and one black coffee come to just under $8.00. Seriously plain espresso with cream and stevia and a large black coffee. I want to eat and drink local, but not for watery espresso and over priced coffee. read more

Needing a spot to meet up with a friend for a cup of coffee and a place to chat, we settled on SIP. Unfortunately for us, everyone else must have had the same idea, as there was no seating, either downstairs or upstairs when we arrived. We ordered our drinks and eventually found a small corner of the shop to sit and chat. With that being said, I ordered a big iced latte with oat milk and toasted marshmallow. Yummmmm. Not overly sweet and you can tell they use high quality coffee beans. If I hadn't just eaten lunch, I would have enjoyed one of their numerous pastry or baked food items. They had a nice variety of sweet and savory items. A good coffee shop, albeit a little crowded with studying students. read more

Very rude..serves cold coffee and watery coffee.. they are not really sure of how to do a good pour over and the manager is a jerk.

Very delicious coffee - I had the pistachio latte special and wowee was it awesome! Hubby had a regular coffee - reasonable prices for our orders. Interested in trying the pour overs next time we stop in. Super clean location and it was full of people working and chatting away. I thought it was kinda funny that SIP stands for Socially Infused People and there were also people there with headphones on or sitting in pod chairs being the complete opposite but it's a great place for however you want to interact with people. read more

I stopped here after dinner to grab a dessert coffee and a snack before getting on the road back to Columbus. The pastries looked fairly fresh so I ordered a chocolate croissant which I ended up eating the next day. The space is bright and welcoming. Seemed like lots of small groups studying or collaborating. The coffee was sweet,cold, and sugary, just as I like it. The most amazing part was the gender neutral restroom which had a child sized table and two appropriately sized chairs. I can only imagine the relief parents must have when they come here with their children and don't have to worry about the mischief their child will get into (looking under other stall doors or running around between tables) while using the facilities. read more

SIP is located in a plaza with other cafes, pastry shops, and yoga joint. Came here on a Sunday and the shop was pretty packed. Despite that, I was able to get my drink and food relatively quickly! The service was really great. The coffee shop itself was bright, and super modern looking. They had an upstairs (which i wasn't able to check out) and plenty of seating downstairs. I got the mozzarella and tomato panini which was pretty decent. Their coffee was also good, and for the price I felt that you got a lot. I liked the ambience of the place and will come back! read more

SIP Coffee - Fresh Mozzarella Tomato Panini - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Toledo, Ohio

We had 3 different coffees between our group and honestly we thought they were mediocre at best. Graded on the coffee we got I'd give it 2 stars, maybe 3 on a good day. So why did I give it 4? The food. I would honestly go back just for the grilled cheese. My wife had a sandwich I can't remember the name of but it was also amazing! The inside is fairly spacious but they were busy the entire time we were there and it felt crowded. Especially while waiting on our coffee, it felt like you were always in the way. They did have a board room upstairs where people could work and the group that was there at the time were quietly working away, so if you need a spot to get some things done that seems like it would be a good spot. read more

My problem with SIP is that they fail to recognize college students are part of their clientele despite being down the street from a college campus. Before we ordered, we set our backpacks down, and were already questioned if we were going to buy something. However, buying coffees and food did not seem to satisfy the management. After purchasing coffee and food for everyone at our table, someone at our table had an unopened outside canned beverage. The management came over and asked us to put the can away, and we complied. The management came around again to ask if we put the beverage in the car. Again, we already had a drink and food per person, so it seemed over the top to have us move one singular outside beverage from put away in the backpack to into the car. I understand why they don't want outside food and beverage, but we clearly weren't drinking from that beverage. I suppose SIP would be perfectly ok if you don't stay there for longer than it takes to order. The baristas are nice and not at fault - the constant interrogations at the table after ordering is just too much, whether you're trying to chat or study. read more
