We had lunch at Tipsy Beans Cafe while visiting Williamsburg and it was a great stop. When we first walked in, I assumed it was counter service like a typical coffee bar. After checking in at the bar, we were told to grab a seat and that a server would come by, which they did promptly. The menu leans heavily into brunch, with plenty of options, plus coffee made just about any way you want it. True to the name, you can also add a shot or a bit of booze to just about anything. Service was fast and friendly throughout. I ordered a breakfast benedict and a mimosa, both of which were excellent. My daughter went with pancakes and really enjoyed them as well. Overall, a great experience and an easy recommendation if you are in Williamsburg and looking for a relaxed brunch or lunch spot. read more

4 stars because it's a cluster, no reservations, doesn't pick up the phone, the wait times are ridiculous & not enough space for parties waiting. IT'S SMALL I tried to call in my order but I got the voicemail almost every single time. Finally, after calling about 10 times I got through and placed my order. They told me the wait was going to be about 15. It was about a 10 min drive and when I got there, I still had to wait. There wasn't space for me to wait so people thought that I was waiting in line each time they walked in. It's super busy, but super small. I waited in the restaurant for my order for maybe an extra 20 mins. So, the wait time was 15 but I waited about 30 mins total. I ordered the catfish platter with fries. They definitely seasoned the catfish and fried it hard. The fries were thick cut and seasoned, but they weren't fried long enough. 3 fish platters cost $50. I would try this place again, but maybe a lot earlier in the day. Because this place is very inconvenient. read more

I am so glad I went here this morning! Best breakfast, great cocktails, boozy coffee, amazing staff, interesting menu, clean and crisp dining area! I just felt like needed to lay out the highlights right away. So much of this place made me smile and happy. I got a Bloody Mary well maybe two, alright three geese. Jess my serve was on top of her game, beautiful, sweet, and foresight full. For my entree I was served crab cake egg Benedict! Sooo amazing. I did get a side of bacon but to my surprise I was so full from the eggs Benedict I couldn't finish the bacon!? I unfortunately did not try the boozy coffee but I will next time definitely. Don't miss out on this wonderful Williamsburg gem! read more

Wow if the crowd and the wait are indications of how great the food is, then might as well give a 5 star without ordering, It also helps they were recognized for 2024 Coastal VA choice. Located in a shopping complex with just steps from the Movie Tavern. This location is accessible with ample parking. Seating is available inside, on patio and at the bar. Even for a person walk-in, the wait is more than 20 minutes at 12noon on a Saturday. You heck in and your name and number are taken so they can call you when seating is available. I finally got seated at the bar. Noticed that they not only spray/clean the counter but also the bar stool - kudos! Jessie at the bar was friendly and personable. Lots of cocktail and coffee offerings! Everyone seems to belong to a happy team, interchangeably having each other's backs from calling the waitlist, to bartending, to making coffee. I ordered the Morning After Burger. It was a toss up between that or shrimp and grits, both were marked as favorites. I was able to substitute French fries with fruits, no issue. The burger was delicious. Definitely worth the long drive from VA Beach! Oh, I ordered the tower carrot cake and it was good! read more

Deceivingly small establishment from the looks of the outside. Sat at the bar due to the wait. Too cold to sit outside. If you have a a large party this place is not ideal. Name plays off the selection of coffees and alcohol. I tried the almond joy latte which tasted just like the name but I'm not sure if I loved the coconut flakes in it. Ordered crab cake burger which was okay. Being picky ... the tomato slice was very small and thick cut. And the lettuce ... well you see the picture. My friend ordered the deviled eggs. Not impressed with that either. The filling was very runny and looked like they rushed the order. She also ordered the fresh pork rinds. Also subpar for being fresh. Some were so crunchy it was uncomfortable to chew. The staff were all VERY friendly. Possibly return for a drink but maybe not the food. read more

When in Williamsburg you need to stop in! Nicely decorated small and cozy. They have an extensive selection of lattes and Coffees and they have a full bar with signature cocktails and shooters, snd by the way the huge list of lattes can come with liquor to give it a punch! So good! I had a bacon egg and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel. Simple but was so delicious. The bacon was the surprise. Cooked to perfection. Avocado toast has lemon juice chili flakes with 2 fried eggs amazing. My one suggestion is if you get there early it's a very popular spot as it can get very busy and now you now why. read more

Stepped into this little cafe on a weekday morning and was immediately blown away by the upbeat atmosphere and friendly, attentive service.

Fair prices too! read more

Sunday morning my wife, son and I went here around 10 am. We had to wait about 40 minutes to get a table. Not much space inside so we were sat outside and said it would probably be an additional 25 minutes to get sat inside. As for the food there's no kids menu so my 6 year old got the cat fish breakfast which came with eggs added cheese, toast, and stone ground grits. Grits have a great texture but need salt and pepper. Maybe they don't add anything because some people like sweet and some savory. My wife had the meat lovers omelette, added spinach and mushrooms. Also came with home fries and toast. She enjoyed it, but I like my home fries crispy and she likes her more soft so they were perfect for her. I had the chicken and waffles, chicken was well seasoned and juicy. I ordered the seasonal lemon waffle which was the highlight of the meal for me. I wish it came with an additional side of eggs or grits but nonetheless I ended up ordering a side of grits which again needed salt and pepper. For drinks I got an espresso martini, could have been stronger but it was ok. My wife got the butterscotch latte with almond milk, she thought it was just ok as well. Overall the bill was about 87 we tipped 20% so we spent a little over 100$. A good experience. I think if you live in Williamsburg it's a nice place to go. Judging just by the food it was really good. read more

HIDDEN GEM ::: Place so nice we had to visit twice! Prior to visiting Williamsburg, Virginia, I went on to Yelp! to bookmark a few places for us to eat during our vacation since I've visited Williamsburg a plethora of times in my lifetime and all they seemed to have was a bunch of Pancake Houses which close early and Commercial Restaurants which stay open late. I wanted to be sure I was overly prepared with an arsenal of restaurants for us to choose from which did not fit the pancake house and commercial restaurant mold. So glad Yelp! led me to Tipsy Beans Cafe! It was about a three minute drive from our hotel AND THEE BEST bite during our week long stay in Williamsburg. Tipsy Beans Cafe is quaint BUT mighty! They have a small indoor area with about 10 four top tables and some bar seating. They have an additional maybe 5 four top tables outside. They offer a vast menu of food and drinks and the entire menu is served ALL DAY-that's the breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks, and dessert-ALL DAY! They also have Happy Hour DAILY! Do you hear me, that's daily 3p-6p SATURDAYS AND SUNDAYS INCLUDED! Oh, and not sure who had the aux and whose playlist that is playing in the background but baby I need them to AirDrop me the playlist STAT! Y'all can thank me later! Again, so nice we had to visit them twice! All food is made to order and made with love-you can tell who's working in that kitchen baby! Again, thank me later! Our first visit was a Saturday morning for breakfast and our second visit a Sunday afternoon for a snack/happy hour prior to going to see a movie. On our first visit, we had chicken and waffles, shrimp n grits, sweet tea, and chocolate milk. Them tenders that accompanied the chicken and soft pillowy waffles, chefs kiss, seasoned to perfection-you will see in my pics. Sweet Tea, was perfect for me! Shrimp n grits-shrimp PERFECTLY cooked and seasoned. This bowl of grits was unnecessarily huge to me because it led to the shrimp/grit ratio being off but tasty nonetheless. Our second visit, my son had the Sweet n Spicy brisket tacos which he demolished alongside the Rocket Pop Mocktail which others in the restaurant began ordering after seeing them bring it out to my son. We also had the garlic parm wings which came with a side of seasoned fries. While the wings had a great taste and an amazing ranch on the side, I hated that the wings were breaded then fried. It was not what I was expecting nor wanting so I was thrown off by it, but made the best of it. The glass of Riesling I had was also refreshing. My mouth is watering writing this review. So much so, we may have to visit for a third time today before we head back to Baltimore tomorrow. You're welcome! Cheers to a great time! read more

I visited Tipsy Bean Cafe with a friend after checking out reviews. The cafe is small in size, but it does offer outdoor seating. The cafe has exceptional customer service and creative menu items, which were the highlights of my visit. I ordered the Smoked Salmon bagel with home fries. I enjoyed the bagel, although next time I will ordered it without red onions. The onions were a little overpowering for me. The home fries are worth checking out the cafe all themselves. They are crispy and are seasoned to perfection. The cafe is known for its "tipsy" lattes. I didn't order one during my visit, but I'll be sure to try it out next time. Overall, Tipsy Bean Cafe is a great place to visit when in Williamsburg, Va. read more

Over a year ago, Sophia and I stopped for breakfast at a little spot located in Williamsburg. Both of us enjoyed our coffee selection along with our breakfast meal. We decided to come on back and give it another go. Walking inside, there was a nice crowd already in place, but not overwhelming at all. We immediately got seated and served right away by a waitress placing our orders. I selected an iced white raspberry chocolate latte for liquids and fried catfish Southern breakfast for my meal with scrambled eggs substituted for stone ground grits. Everything was truly delicious. The latte was mixed very well and strong enough to get the morning going. You can't complain with coffee like this, and it wasn't too sweet either. The breakfast meal had yours truly full. It has been a minute since I last had catfish, and I can tell you they cooked this one perfectly. The home fries, eggs and toast were great compliments. Sophia had the same meal and even said this was the best catfish she's ever had. No joke! Just like the last time, this visit was perfect. Great service and great food. You know we'll be back the next time we're in the area. Till next time :) read more

What a pleasant Google find! I visited around 8:00 AM this Easter weekend, and by 9:00 AM the place was booming! Here's a quick breakdown of my experience: Food: - Ordered the Brisket and Sweet Hash: Chipotle & cinnamon-braised shredded brisket with sweet potatoes, bell peppers, and onions, topped with one scrambled egg (added cheese for an extra cost). SOOOOO GOOD! - Menu offers a wide variety, catering to different tastes and dietary needs. This is so essential and important to me! Customer Service: - Service was warm and attentive--Jessica (as noted on my receipt) was friendly and on top of things. The staff seemed to work well as a team, helping each other and keeping the energy positive. The vibe of the cafe felt communal, welcoming, and efficient even during the rush. Price: - Spent about $25 (excluding tip) for a single meal. On the higher side for a solo breakfast, especially if you're planning to bring someone along or stay within a tighter budget. ** Price is justifiable for the quality and experience but worth noting if cost is a factor. Location: - Located in a clean, attractive plaza with easy parking. Overall, great for a casual breakfast outing or a relaxed start to the weekend. I can't wait to come back for my next visit! read more

I finally got here after work at a decent enough hour to grab some coffee and breakfast. I've been here a few times, but usually later in the afternoon or evening times. Since it's so early, I thought I'd do breakfast. Today's coffee is Cheat Treat, apparently named because it's made with peanut butter, caramel and hazelnut- all sugar free. It's hot and tasty. For breakfast, I ordered the boozy French toast. It's ok, nothing to shout about. At least not until a gnat took a dive bomb right into my whipped cream. Immediately lost my appetite. And the waiter only offers a measly apology. I'm sorry, but for $14 to only eat half the entree I would have expected some discount or comp. The gnats, from what my waiter said, "bug them, too" but come on. That is disgusting. And they're all over the bar counter. I seriously hope management reads this review and does something, because the gnats just make it a gross experience. read more

Fast service on this cold day by an accommodating lady who took our drink orders, black coffee for hubby and lemon ginger with a side of honey for me while we perused the menu that included breakfast and lunch items. We had attempted to dine here before but it was on a sunny day and the wait was painfully long, like an hour's worth so we went elsewhere but today we got to enjoy this place which was really clean for all the foot traffic that it receives. We chose the table in the back, away from the front door because every time that door opened-brrr! I got the crabcake sandwich which came with potato wedges, ordered my hollandaise on the side. Hubby got the burger with fries aka hangover special. He was able to get a rare burger which is a treat for him, also with potato wedges. Pleased so will return. read more

What a great place! Everyone was so friendly. There isn't a lot of seating, but we got the last table outside. Nice and shady! Our server Christine was super friendly and offered some suggestions. The coffee and food was great. My hamburger was very moist and flavorful. Smaller portion size than expected, but just enough. Patty was thin vs. thick. I ordered medium well and I would say it was more medium. Sweet potato fries were yummy! I had a cold brew with sugar free raspberry syrup-a little too much for me, so maybe go lighter on the pumps. My husband's caramel macchiato was delicious! It was super sweet though! Will definitely go back. Huge menu of food and a lot of lattes. Would love to see them expand when the place next door closes. More seating would be great! read more

Loveeee Tipsy Beans for their lattes and I always have to make a stop when I'm passing through! My go to is the S'mores latte however they have a couple of other fun flavors that are probably good as well. On my last trip I finally decided to try their food. I had the catfish breakfast which came with eggs and grits. The eggs were pretty standard, the grits deliciously creamy and the catfish?! Cooked and seasoned to perfection! My only gripe is that they gave me the smallest catfish filet in the land and only gave me ONE. For $15 I'd expect much more, especially for catfish lol. Part of me wished it tasted bad so I wouldn't be mad about it lol. Not sure if this is standard or a mistake but definitely worth mentioning! read more

My husband and I went on a Sunday morning and it was crowded. We were told that it would be a 45 minute wait (that's fine) but it ended up being only 20 minutes. Love the quaint vibe of the cafe. It is small, but cute. Anyway, we ordered the iced Almond Joy latte and the Mud Turtle latte. Both were delicious. I had the Brisket and Sweet Potato hash and my husband had the Honolulu Burger. He said the burger was good. There was a lot of brisket in my dish, which I loved! The only complaint I had is my toast. It was cold and soft when it hit the table. read more

On a recent, cold and rainy day I stopped at Tipsy Bean and ordered a Chai Latte . When I received my hot beverage I spotted a vacant table and sat down there to enjoy my drink. Had anybody looked for a seat I would gladly have offered to share, but instead I was "advised" by personnel that tables were only for customers who had also ordered food. I got up and noticed that there were a couple of vacant seats at the bar. So I proceeded to take a seat there. Again, I was "informed" that the same rules applied for the seats at the bar. This wasn't even said nicely or with an apology... so I said that I would never return to this place and left, warming my hands on the warm paper cup in the rain. If Tipsy Bean only wants to sell coffee/tea drinks to go only, maybe they should have a kiosk at the mall instead. read more

What a great find! First time here and we enjoyed all the food we tried as well as had kind service. Arrived on a Friday morning and the restaurant was already full. We were able to grab the last table. A friendly server came over with water and menus for us to check out. For food we tried the following: Grits-good Pancake-fluffy and delicious Chicken & Waffles-husband was able to get pumpkin spice flavored waffle and it had a great flavor. The chicken tenders were huge and cooked well. He got a side of ranch and it was good for dipping the tenders in. Turkey Club sandwich- delicious and the fries that came with it were perfection. Nice crispy coating. Drinks: Peanut butter Drizzle- I got it iced and it was so good! Drip coffee-husband also enjoyed his coffee-waitress was great with refills You can also order the menu all day so you can get breakfast/lunch items all day which I love! It's cozy inside with about 12 tables and a bar area with seats as well. They also have outdoor seating for warmer months. Our server was great and even though it was busy and full the food didn't take too long to come out. read more

Tipsy Beans Cafe offers interesting (in a good way) drinks and carefully conceived pub food. I went recently with three friends for a Thursday lunch, and we all really enjoyed our meals. I had the burger on a brioche bun with fries. The burger was moist and the portion was just the right size. We also ordered the chicken tacos (came with three soft shell tacos and a side of saffron rice), the arugula prosciutto flatbread (pre-sliced for easier handling), and the tuna nachos (topped with beautifully bright guacamole). All were excellent! They also serve their breakfast menu all day. You can order drinks from a wide selection of cocktails and coffee that are like cocktails -- à la the name Tipsy Beans. Yes, they also have nonalcoholic drinks too. We enjoyed their refreshing iced tea with lemon. The dining area is enclosed in glass, so the light streams in making it a cheerful place. It can get somewhat loud, but that's just other enthusiastic diners. It's not large, and if it's full, you can put your name on a waiting list. They open in the morning and close at 6 pm. Located next to the Movie Tavern Theater on High Street, there's lots of free parking in this shopping/dining area. read more
