Absolutely love this place. I come here to work on homework and it is the perfect atmosphere to do so. Tons of tables, chairs, and outlets if needed. WiFi is great. Staff are great as well. So so happy I found this place. read more

Really enjoyed my marshmallow mocha - great recommendation from my barista. Barista was very pleasant and helpful. Neat space and many beverage options to choose from. Also excited to see that they were selling Farmers First Coffee! read more

Sip is a great newer coffee shop in the Toledo area. The drinks are good, though it seems the rotating staff is always continuing to learn. That's fine, but none are what I would consider to be "experts." They are all courteous and professional, though, and they do well. The atmosphere is very eclectic but high-scale, a very "hip" place. read more

Very nicely decorated place and warm atmosphere, located on Central a block away from Costco. I'm not a coffee drinker but I consume a lot of hot tea. I prefer coming here than going to Starbucks, even though it's a little higher in price but the ambiance is just better and much cleaner than other coffee shops. read more

My favorite place to study in town! Always fast and friendly service, clean, and adorably decorated creates for a perfect atmosphere. A ton of food and drink options available too. read more

Really like this place. It's beautiful inside with plenty of different seating & good coffee and tea. I wouldn't come here if you're expecting quiet but it has a great feel. Staff are just okay in terms of friendliness but I met the owner a couple of times and she is personable. read more

This place is an awesome place to have a meeting, work quietly alone, or just catch up with friends. The owner and workers are super friendly. read more

Really enjoyed the coffee it was fast and tasted great. The people were very polite and respectful. I didn't know what I wanted and they were polite about letting me read all the way through read more

I have been wanting to try SIP coffee for a while now. I came for a mid-afternoon homework sesh. got a yummy toasted chocolate croissant and iced mocha coffee with caramel! both were very good! upstairs was perfect to get my homework done! Great atmosphere and felt safe during COVID. will be coming back again! read more

The coffee was fine and the poor servers behind the counter were sweet, but the manager running around yelling at everyone made the experience rough. This is not the first time she's acted that way while I've been there, but it will be the last. The woman who clearly, by her domineering and bossy attitude, was the manager very loudly and rudely stated, after I went out of my way to apologize for not seeing her 8 by 11 sign posted ONLY on the front window exclaiming no food, that bringing outside food into a restaurant is extraordinarily rude. If you are going to claim that your coffee shop is a "restaurant", I suggest you should sell food. The premise and expectation of a coffee shop so close to a college campus would be that students will come to sit and study for extended periods of time. Therefore, if you would like to decrease the chance that people will bring outside food, sell FOOD. Upon posting on Facebook about my experience, I found out that not only has this same woman done this exact thing to multiple people, but she has been rude for a variety of reasons. Clearly minimal business savvy is the back bone of this "restaurant"; which isn't shocking considering her father constructively evicted Bibgy in order to give his clearly difficult daughter a chance at success. God bless him. It's a shame because the location is good, the product was fine, and the other staff members were sweet. But the consistent feed back is that woman who apparently runs it is aggressive and overbearing. Hopefully it gets under new management; I will definitely miss my late night studying there! In lieu of this place, try out Brew!, RustBelt Coffee or Black Kite Coffee. Much better atmosphere, kinder people and they actually sell food! read more

The owner walks around the tables and makes sure that everyone has something ordered or else she interrogates them. She makes it very uncomfortable because even if you want to wait to order something you feel like she is watching you so you have to order it now. She single handedly ruins the environment. Even if you bring in a bottle of water they make you feel like you did something wrong. read more

I came here 3 days in a row, drank a lot of their tea, spent way too much $$ on it. Then on the 3rd day, I was watching something on my laptop when the owner came over and asked me to leave because I had "been there a long time and they were uncomfortable..." really? You're uncomfortable with repeat business and someone who liked your place enough to spend a few hours there giving you money and consuming your products? Wow...hospitality around here had gone downhill... read more

My Sunday morning spot! You can't go wrong with any of the blends, and they've done an amazing job of adapting to COVID precautions. It's the only place I dine in since the pandemic. read more

Very nicely redone on the interior but the drinks are subpar and the staff doesn't seem fully trained. Not a spot I'll be revisiting

This place rocks. From the moment I walked in it was amazing. You can tell the employees like to come to work. It was more than just a smile. They were informative & friendly. The owner was there wiping tables & doing work as well. Nice to see. The best part.... was the gluten free options. Like more than 1. I bought 2 & they ROCK!!!!!!! Gluten free sometimes tastes like cardboard.... not these! Holy moly Im in lovvvveeeeeee!!!will be back ASAP read more

Excellent coffee and atmosphere. They did a great job redoing the place from when it was a Bigby's. The chairs are really comfortable. I've haven't found better coffee in Toledo. Staff is friendly and prices are great. read more

Slow bar = yes; Drip = no. This was a trip down memory lane because I used to come here as a teenager when it was Sufficient Grounds." Unfortunately I was trying to be thrifty and fast when I ordered the drip, but that was a big mistake. It tasted like gas station coffee and was basically undrinkable. I had to rush or I would have mentioned it and asked for a refund. My husband got the pour over and it was decent. read more

They had good drink options with locally roasted beans and treats. I had a pour over and my husband had a redeye, both were delicious!

While I was working in Toledo,OH I used my yelp to find a good cup of coffee as I was directed to Sips where I had tasteful latte as well a incredibly delicious pretzel croissant! If I only had time to sit in this beautifully styled upbeat coffee shop has great vibes. I will visit next time I pass through and hopefully will have time to sit in enjoy its lustrous surroundings! Wish you the best of luck! read more

Snagged a fantastic Americano and had a wonderful experience. The renovation is top-notch, the staff is friendly and efficient, and the coffee offering is perfect. Prices are standard, the snacks look great, and I'll be back. read more

I've been to every coffee place in Toledo and this one by far has let me down the most. Overly expensive for what you're getting, and you could honestly save money at the Starbucks across the street. The place is cute, but not worth the ridiculous price for an iced latte. Save your time and money and go to a coffee place that has not only good quality coffee, but also better prices for that. read more

Stopped yesterday for a latte and it tasted seriously bad. Milk must of been over steamed and the drink tasted burnt. Beautiful new espresso machine but not a good product. Hopefully they will get better with time read more

Love everything about this coffee shop. Especially story time on Saturdays twice a month I believe. Their lattes are really good !!!

I love coming here! All of the baristas are always super nice and knowledgeable. It gets kinda busy during peak hours so either charge your laptop ahead of time or come early to find a seat by an outlet! read more

I read the reviews of SIP before I decided to write mine and was disappointed to hear that people were unhappy with their product and experience. I'm not sure where it comes from because I've been to SIP several times and am please with everything from the staff to the drinks, food and interior. Everyone goes out of their way to make sure you are happy and enjoy yourself. As for the bad reviewers, perhaps you could have said something to the SIP team so they could have accommodated you on the spot. I am positive that any new locally owned business wants to make sure people are pleased. I would highly recommend SIP to anyone! read more

Good coffee, though high prices. Good customer service. After taking over Biggby Coffee's spot, they did a lot of remodeling. It's now a modern look that is much nicer! FYI, prior reviewers mentioned their desire for a bike rack. Wersell's Bike Shop did provide bike racks for the plaza, so bike on over and enjoy coffee and tea. read more

This shop is clean and bright and well taken-care of, but the staff seem only minimally trained and prices are high. The other day I expected to pay $5.25 for a chocolate croissant and $3.25 for a small latte: Manhattan prices, but what the hell. But when I saw on the receipt that I'd also been charged $.50 for two pats of butter, the shark was jumped. No: that's just wrong. I tried to say something to the barista, but to her it was just policy. I did note on my receipt that the bag was priced at $.00--really, are places going to start charging for bags? And while I'm at it...am I really supposed to add a tip to this? I feel guilty when the question comes up on the check-out, but this is pick-it-up yourself counter service. And one more rant (sorry) but in the past, when I've asked to have my croissants warmed, the staff puts them in the microwave. Also wrong: one does not microwave baked goods; it makes them rubbery. Again, good intentions, lovely atmosphere, but less-than-great execution, especially for the prices. And if the staff need tips to survive, this just means management isn't paying them a fair wage. read more

Sip has a good selection of teas, coffee, and espresso drinks. The cafe is clean and modern with lots of seating, both upstairs and down. Baristas are polite, though not effusively friendly. I'm sure I will come back here because it is nearby and the drinks are good. However, there wasn't anything very special about this place. It feels like a Starbucks in disguise, as it exudes a corporate feel despite being a local coffee shop. Also, the cafe has high ceilings, which has pluses and minuses -- it makes the space feel spacious and airy, but simultaneously it also amplifies sound, making one feel like you are in a cafeteria. read more

I have only stopped in once, but everything was excellent!! Love the coffee and need to try the tea next time! You can sit inside or out! Has a awesome atmosphere! Definitely will be going back!! read more

I don't have a problem with the coffee... But I have a huge problem with the hours. I used to be a regular at the biggby that used to be in its place and I loved that I could stay there until 11pm doing homework and hangout. Unfortunately Sip is not open very late so by the time I get off work there is no point in even going there to catch up on homework because I'd have to pack up and leave 20 minutes later. Stay open late to compete with the other coffee shops around and Id go.. But until then, I probably won't be going back. read more

This is my second time here. The first time I ordered a tea and it was okay. This time I ordered a white chocolate latte, oj and plain croissant. They had two people working and were very disorganized and I felt bad because there were so many people in line and waiting for food and drinks. It didn't help that I believe the owner was there hovering as all of this transpired. My latte tasted like water and the croissant is as hard as a rock and felt as if it was frozen. Probably the worst $12 I've ever spent. read more

I love Sip coffee! My barista (had brown hair with dark bangs) was absolutely wonderful. I had the best service from her and will come back again. She was very bubbly and answered my questions I had. She recommended a frozen caramel latte and I haven't been able to stop getting them since! Coffee was good and service was even better. read more

Very good coffee, especially the espresso. My favorite is the chai tea latte! I always have a very good experience anytime I go and really like studying there after classes. read more

Warm and relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Could use a few more outlets for plugging in, but otherwise absolutely lovely place

Really happy with this new coffee place. Have been a few times and I've been very impressed with the friendliness of all of the staff, as well as the variety of coffee and food options from local bakeries. The brewed coffee is great, and the house made granola is delicious. Not to mention the inside has been completely redone since it was a Bigby, and the atmosphere is now very modern yet still relaxed. Would definitely recommend! read more

Not cheap, but worth every penny. Employees are very nice, and the atmosphere is the best in the city among coffee shops

Very nice trendy decor. Local baked goods including the amazing All Crumbs bakery. The chai tea latte was made from a mix and tasted that way... very bland flavor. I'm sure I will go back and try something else at some point. read more

I really love this place, the space is beautiful! It's a great spot to spend an afternoon working. Also, the coffee is great and staff is always extremely friendly and remembers me. read more

I tried the strawberry-banana smoothie after acquiring a census producing the most delicious being just that, fully expecting fresh strawberries and/or bananas. I was displeased upon my third taste, fully accepting my deepest fear that it was not a fresh tropical treat, but a sugar-assaulted mess of GFS margarita mix. This was nearly the sweetest entity I have ever experienced - second only to Gina and Erin, who were very polite and cordially allowed me to exchange the hostile diabetic bomb with a small cup of black coffee (large was offered) without the slightest hint of judgement for consuming 80+ mg caffeine after 2pm.. nor the straw I drank my coffee with. They were also very polite to an older lady who thought she was in a Biggby's. The employees are the only reason this is not a 1 star review. 10/10 would be a wingman for Gina and Erin. read more

Honestly couldn't give lower rating so I settled for 1 Star. Over paid for a "large" tea. The tea tasted OLD. McDonalds is way better and that's saying something. Staff was so rude for the price they ask for. The atmosphere was loud. Not a place to get work done at all. Do not even think about a refill. They will ignore you and make you pay for that. Can safely say I will never return to this place. Good luck staying in business with this crappy store. read more
