This is my new favorite coffee house in Chicago. The coffee is good, the service is either friendly or indifferent (although oddly enough without attitude), but it's the setting I love. You have a choice between two outdoor areas as well as several nooks & crannies to park yourself indoors.
YEA! THAT'S RIGHT! It's like a straight up English Muffin in that joint!
You can usually find free parking on the streets somewhat easily. And as you can read in other people's reviews - free Wi-Fi! One of the main reasons I go there. Kicks ass.
Saw that some reviewers had commented on "indifferent" service but we wanted to give the place a chance. We walked in on a Sunday afternoon only to find nobody behind the counter. The place seemed empty, except for a dude standing around talking on his cell phone. Perhaps the staffer was in the bathroom? We waited a few more minutes before we realized that the cell phone guy must have been the employee; he never even acknowledged us or made any effort to cut his conversation short. We walked out and headed to the nearby Starbucks.
We hate to not support our local businesses, but with service like this...
It's a pretty cafe that looks a bit like a loft apartment.. high ceilings, wood floors, and so on. I'm a tea drinker and got the Moroccan mint, which was tasty and pleasant. I like that they give you your own pot and let you choose from an assortment of mugs on the counter. I also liked the array of colorful magazines they have lining the corridor to the main sitting room (and on that note, it's a nice touch that the main room and the ordering room are separate, so you don't have to listen to the baristas taking orders as you work or read). They have very nice decor: lovely tables to work at and big comfy chairs to sip tea and read in.
Why only three stars? It's close to a four for me, but the food they had on display didn't look in the least bit appealing (it looked like refrigerated airport food, to be honest). That's not a dealbreaker though; coffee and tea at a coffee house are always more important than anything else on the menu. But the place lacks something... I really couldn't say what. Character, perhaps? The vibe was a little stodgy for my tastes, a little too "modern upper-crust." I wanted it to be a little more weird. And weird, it most certainly was not.
Thank you fellow Yelpers for all the prior reviews because this is truly a fantastic coffee shop with great service, an amazing ambiance, inexpensive and good selection of food and bevs. I am doing a tour of local coffee houses to try out new neighborhoods, support someone besides Starbucks, and vary up the daily routine, Am most definitely coming back to Sip!
Why go to Starbucks across the street when you can support your local coffee shop? The staff is friendly, the coffee which i believe is Intelligentsia is incredible, the music is generally great, tons of room, lots of people hanging out on laptops, good atmosphere, plenty of food to choose from
Love this place. Love my neighborhood!
Hello Yelpers, I've found my new favorite coffee shop!
The coffee: Sip uses Intelligentsia beans, which are quality, and they make a solid iced mocha. I will say that I haven't had anything else there yet (I've been wanting cold drinks since it's summer) but I expect their warmer drinks to be good too. This isn't the best coffee in the city, but it's good. There's an interesting comparison between Fair Trade (a certification) and Direct Trade (buying beans directly from the growers, which often means they pay growers a better wage) currently on the whiteboard as well. Intelligentsia is the latter.
The service: As a rule, the baristas are a friendly bunch.
The baked goods: It's a rare brownie that I think is even passable. Sip's brownies are simply good.
Atmosphere: This is where the cafe really shines. Go through the front room with the coffee bar, and Sip has a little outdoor courtyard, a spacious main room with a balcony/loft that you can also sit on, and a beautiful patio in the back with trees. (Watch out for the birds though - one narrowly missed pooping on my brother, and another one pooped on my laptop. No joke.) Sip feels like an airy, modern house, but one that is comfortable rather than pretentious. And they have free Wi-Fi, so what's not to love?

Very nice neighborhood coffee shop! The staff is friendly, and they are very nicely decorated, it gives you the feel you are in an artist's house. They even have hand lotion in the bathroom! Nice touch!
The coffee is very good, they have the nice outdoor space! Too bad winter is just around the corner! I love coming here once in a while, so do the same! Support the small, independent, locally owned business! They need it in this economy and they deserve it!

I really like this little coffeshop down on Grand right by where I work. They are a locally owned place with lots of sustainable coffee and snack choices at a fair price. They sell Intelligencia coffee and a nice assortment of teas. The banana bread is AMAZING..... I swear it must have crack in it.
They also have this fun thing where you get a free cup of coffee if your name is one of the 2- one lady and one gent- that they randomly chose for the day.

omg I love Sip!! It's my new favorite coffeeshop now, Yay. My fiance and I are were looking online for coffeeshops that were opened the morning of July 4th and we wanted to find a place with free wifi.
Sip is awesome. Not only because it has free wifi (I don't believe people should pay for wifi especially if you're a paying customer at a coffeeshop!) but the atmosphere is chill and laid back. We got coffee, breakfast baked goods, and parked ourselves with our laptops on the table. My muffin was huge and it was bigger than your ordinary muffin elsewhere. And my latte was just perfect.
They have a patio where you can sit outside and enjoy the Chicago summer. But inside, the tables with mismatched chairs are equally as inviting. I keep telling my fiance that we have to be back. And we sure will.

Sip is my new favorite coffeeshop (which seems to change with every great Chicago cafe discovery made). This is why I love Chicago- there are just so many amazing places to go!
Sip has everything needed for a quality cafe experience: great drinks, cute atmosphere, tasty baked goods, and free WIFI. I'm a big fan of the fact that there are a variety of settings that you can sit in, too. There's a lofted area, a darker inside nook, a large windowed space near the back area, and then my favorite part: the back porch. I had an incredibly relaxing and enjoyable time sipping my tea, eating my yogurt parfait out in perfect weather..
If only it was a little less of a walk from the Ashland pink line stop... Blue line folks are lucky to have this!
People thought this was:
I go to Sip when my car is at the Car Rx up the street.
I wish I lived near this coffee shop. It is a brilliant coffee shop.
They know coffee, they know tea, they even sell my beloved San Pellagrino with orange juice.
The wi-fi is free. Real, genuine, actual, no security hoops to jump through, free.
My ONLY complaint, and the reason I didn't give Sip a 5 star rating, is that some of the furniture in the back room smells like a hobo slept on it the night before. Now, I understand that second hand, old furniture is going to have an oder. I don't care, I'm ok with that, honest. But this is a serious, feet that haven't been washed in weeks funk. I'm no advocate of Febreeze or anything else that just covers up stink with stink. But there has to be some kind of a steam cleaning situation that can be arranged.
Other than that, this place is the bomb diggity.

Lordy, lordy... this is my favorite coffeehouse ever! Seriously ever. Ever ever. I'm Yelping in real time - I'm here right now. Is that lame? Sort of. Do I love it? Yes!!!
The last time I was here around the same morning hour, there was NO one here. I'm pretty sure they had just recently opened, so their business has obviously picked up in the best way possible. Never too crowded, there's always room to sit and get on your laptop or gather with friends for tea and coffee.
I'm currently having a pot of Lychee tea (only $2 - awesome!) and it tastes like France. You know those tastes - they remind you of something that you remember very fondly. This taste reminds me of my lovely host mom, Montpellier, sipping tea at Café 1886... seriously this is the most amazing tea I have ever had. Thank you, Sip, for carrying teas outside of the standard selection (i.e. Earl Grey and Irish Breakfast). They have a ton of tea that isn't standard at most shops, even Argo! I even got to pick my own mug (everyone does!) and that makes me very happy. In that cozy, warm sort of way.
The colors (lots of purples, greens, neutral earthy tones) make this place feel super cozy even though the space is kind of large and industrial-ish. There's ample seating and a ton of people utilizing the free wifi. There's a nice, quaint garden outside of where I am right now for great seating and hanging out in the summer. I can't wait! I don't come to coffee shops very often, but I'm going to start driving here just to hang out and have a good morning with tea and my computer.

Nice cozy and clean interior, adequate plug availability for laptops and no-hassle free wi-fi. It can get a bit crowded but it's good so that's to be expected. Intelligentsia beans & decent food - I would like to see more food availability (like Efebos) but this is a coffee shop so that's not a big deal. The outdoor seating earns a fifth star for Sip.
Alright, so the first thing that caught my attention was the XM indie radio. I walk in (by the way be careful of the slope at the entrance! that shiz is dangerous!), anyway, sorry for the digression. Okay, I walk in, I immediately see a large selection of coffee (Intelligentsia, mind you!) and tea beverages.
My favorite is the black lychee tea. I come here just for it. The little tea pots are fun, and choosing a mug for yourself is very casual... which is pretty much the milieu of Sip. The crowd: 20ish/30ish/40ish. Yuppies and hipsters can co-exist in the space. What I love most is that Sip doesn't try too hard to be "cool." The crowd keeps themselves, but isn't pretentious nor are there overt "Sip groupies." You know those types; every coffeehouse has THOSE people.
I find I get a lot of work here despite the free wifi. Also, for some reason while the occasional 80s new wave piped into the room can be somewhat distracting, it's also fun. It makes me wanna wear skinny jeans (which I do already), and try to be a hipster/punk but I know I can't. I'm not "with it." Overall, my favorite place to study or chill this end of town.
People thought this was:
Like so many others, I am reviewing Sip FROM Sip, thanks to their free and un-annoying wireless. No limit on your access. No stupid code to enter. Okay, so the tables aren't the most ergonomic thing ever, as they're a bit high, but that's not the most important thing, is it? (There are also couches galore).
I'm actually in good company here as well by having discovered Sip while my car was in Car Rx down the street. Sadly, there's a Starbucks between there and Sip, so I fear too many people don't make it up the street to the better coffee shop.
Sip make a mean cappuccino. That's all I can vouch for here, beverage-wise, because I doubt I'll ever deviate and get something else. It's June, and it's still cold in Chicago so why bother? The muffins are lovely, and there are many other baked goods, yogurt/granola parfaits, fruit salads, etc. You can get everything here from looseleaf tea to iced coffee, to the usual coffeehouse fare.
The space is lovely- 2 stories and lots of patio space. I love the two story exposed-brick wall with skylights and wood ceiling beams. Very ambient. Right now they have a series of paintings by kids hanging up. (Or, um, they might not be by kids... )
Let's be honest, Chicago lacks enough truly awesome cafes. Sip is among of the strongest coffee shops.
First of all, they brew Intelligentsia and their baristas are good at what they do.
They use mugs. If I have to drink delicious coffee through a plastic cup lid and smell paper one more time...
They have free, though not terribly reliable, wifi.
They have plenty of seating.
There are, though, a couple reasons Sip doesn't get five stars. I was disappointed by the limited food selection (thought the Brie Turkey Club was pretty good for a pre-fab sandwich). The music is usually awful, depending on who's working. They use a satellite radio service at a volume that is too high, and on stations that do not seem appropriate for their customer base. I've been about a half a dozen times, and I've never seen people doing anything but write, read, or chat quietly. I'm not so sure Fall Out Boy is the appropriate soundtrack for such activities.
Still, Sip has few coffee shop peers in the city.
Four Stars.
People thought this was:
Sip Coffee House & Garden is mighty cool. Its an fun, hip, artsy place with comfy chaise lounges, sofas and arm chairs where you can sit, do homework, read or chat with friends.
The coffee isnt so bad either. I had their Cafe Au Lait for $3.50 and it was pretty good. Their baked goods arent the best(my scone was just EHH) but their coffee/expresso drinks are what I come to coffee houses for- my friends and I were happy with their drink options AND prices.
Probably the best part of Sip is the outside seating..........when I hear GARDEN I think lots of flowers(which they did not have) but they do have a chic outdoor patio with a huge tree, shrubs and little bird houses. SO CUTE! Parking wasnt too hard to find on a Friday afternoon, Im not sure how often I will be visiting Sip as there isnt really anything else in the area that appeals to me.
Its a cool little spot, and all of their "for here" mugs were different(like you were in a private home) which was just the perfect touch of cuteness.
Sip is a great alternative to the Commercial coffee shop down the street...Sip serves Intelligentia teas and I got the White Tea w/Peach after trudging through our slushy snows recently. Sip isn't just going to give you a paper cup and shove you on your way out the door, they ask if you want it "for here" and if so, they'll serve it up in one of those little teapots that you can get like, three whole cups of tea out of! Nice touch!
The Sip space has lots of different places to hunker down with a magazine, laptop or have a nice conversation. They have free Wi-Fi and lots of people were taking advantage. Quiet music played while people worked or talked, and my friend and I did not get 'shushed' here! They've got great art on the walls and support local artists! And you should too! Support local tea and coffee artists, like Sip!
People thought this was:
Great place to study, especially on a rainy day. Clean, comfortable, with a 'living room' feel. Friendly staff and good internet service.
I had a fabulous vanilla latte and banana bread w/chocolate chips (homemade by the owner).
Can't wait to go back when the weather is nice to try the outdoor patio.
People thought this was:
I looooooveee Sip.
It's friendly, has a great atmosphere and most people bring their laptops and books so it's an excellent place to get some work done. And I love that they have an impressive row of magazines to browse - thank you for providing me with access to Harper's and Glamour, mags I would read but never buy!
They also have a lovely courtyard area in the back where you can chill when the weather's warm (which means not this weekend, but soon i hope!).
People thought this was:
As a first-time visitor to Sip, it made me feel right at home. In fact, sitting there for the afternoon almost felt like hanging out at a friend's house.
Up front, the barista was friendly and accommodating, and I'm glad I took his recommendation of the homemade carrot ginger soup along with the Intelligentsia coffee, which was delicious.
In back, I was a bit worried about being able to find a place to sit, but our group ended up on a set of comfy couches overlooking a great patio that would be perfect on a sunny summer day. Free wifi was a big plus, too. Most of the patrons seemed to want to tune out the 80's channel piped in on the satellite radio, but it made for an appropriate soundtrack for studying on a dull winter day.
I'll definitely be back to Sip one day soon.
People thought this was:
Good coffee and good people.
I'm not a big coffee drinker, but when I'm in the mood, I prefer Sip to one of the many chain places around my office. I'm all about supporting the little guy.
The atmosphere here is great! I love that they have art from local artists on the walls and my friend even had a collaborative piece shown here. A very relaxed, artsy vibe with good coffee and a good amount of tables/space. I'd be here every day if I were a caffeine addict. Maybe I'll become one so I can visit Sip more often!
People thought this was:
I just stopped in here for first time - Great coffee, super cool vibe and energy, and the Fruit and Flax muffin I had was the best I have had! Yum - thanks Sip! Next time, I will be sure to relax in their rear outdoor patio - great space for chilling out. I will be going out of my way to stop in here in the future.
People thought this was:
Amazing coffee place! I have escaped here to work many times and it's always comfortable and not overcrowded and their coffee is fantastic. The atmosphere is what makes it so amazing--it's set up in a loft-type setting with tables and chairs but also couches and overstuffed chairs and such. It feels almost like you're in someone's apartment with only tables and chairs as furniture. They also have a great back patio but the inside is lit enough with natural light from the windows to feel like you're not being closed in. Their wifi bugs out every once in a while, but just ask someone to reset it and then it works just fine.
People thought this was:
I've been looking for a neighborhood coffee spot, and to be honest Jupiter wasnt doing it for me.
Thanks for being inviting, knowing the difference between direct & fair trade, offering grape leaves and Intelligentsia coffee.... and being cute Sip. BFFS forever.
People thought this was:
What a beautiful garden cafe! What a light and breezy space! Wait, am I in the city? On Grand near Ogden? Wowie!
Which is what I would have been saying had it been sunny, warm, pleasant and seasonal out. Well, it's seasonal as we're getting into fall, but right now it's rainy, gray and we have the remains of a hurricane hovering in our Chicago skies.
Sip nonetheless is somehow cozy. It's crowded though and the places to sit are a bit cutthroat (and me having my luck, I've landed next to the open-mouthed chewer, natch). The counter help is sweet, the coffee is cheap (a large is only $2.15) the space is open, sort of like someone's gut rehabbed living room. I suspect that the raised platform area the chair I rest on doubles as a stage, which is nice.
I'll be back one day before the weather really turns, and I'll sit outside. It's sort of walkable from the blue line if not a bit of a hike, forget the Grand bus if it ever shows up and parking can be brutal, despite all that it's made it onto the return list. Oh and free wifi. How could I forget?
...But seriously, have you ever sat next to someone that eats hummus with their mouth open? It's enough to make a person move to the next available seat pronto. And I will....
People thought this was:
I am petitioning the owners of Sip Coffeehouse to let me live here.
No really, I want to move in.
They have a garden! I am sitting in it RIGHT NOW. It's beautiful. Ample tables private little area to bask in the glory of caffeine and sunshine amidst happy looking coffee/tea drinkers.
The decor. I'm seriously impressed...is it possible to be bold and comforting at the same time? Sip does it. It's like a house! But cooler, and with a coffee bar. And a garden. And tables. And chill people with computers. And my heart.
Check it out. One of the best coffee shops in Chicago, and some STELLAR wifi.
My iced coffee is lovely. Seriously, why do I live so far away from here and Star Lounge? Y'all have the best coffee places up 'round here...maybe I'll move? (No, not to Sip, but maybe close)
People thought this was:
So, already mentioned the scone.
I also have to say that this time the music level was much better even if they are still stuck in the 80s (but I decided to be open-minded and not criticize!) Too bad I forgot my big hair and my leggings though...) We spent the afternoon up in the mezzanine with my friend and it was really good. They also have a whole bunch of magazines that you can read if you are bored, your companion doesn't have conversation or if you just want to read a magazine...very eclectic collection!

This place is absolutely pleasant. The staff is friendly, the coffee great, and there are two lovely patios. If only they hadn't played really, really great melancholy pop music on the XM radio-- the best chiming stuff of New Order, PiL, Wire, Replacements, etc... I don't need to be made tender, to remember loss and heartache, when I'm trying to read my Details magazine!

A new entry to the Wireless Workplaces list. My general guidelines are as follows: wireless, seating, coffee/beverage availability, food, noise type/levels, power outlets.
Wireless
No charge. Was sometimes erratic. This may have been solved already.
Seating / Power Outlets
A lot of different seating options, typical for a coffee house, but still conducive for getting work done depending on your desired level of comfort (cushy or firm). No problems with power outlet accessibility unless you opt to sit in the outdoor garden.
Noise Type / Levels
Typical coffee house. Some days it can be pretty quiet. Other days, you may get a lot of conversationalists solving the world's problems at high volume levels. If you need to take/make a call, I would do it from the garden, where noise won't bother you, and you won't bother them.
Coffee / Beverage / Food
I liked the coffee here as well. Food-wise there is some delicious pastry items, but nothing substantial as far as lunch goes.
Overall impression
Another one of my favorite places. The only negative is that you shouldn't come here if you like eating a big meal during lunch. You can definitely get a lot done, run into familiar faces, and even take a break in the garden if need be.
People thought this was:
What keeps this place from getting 5 stars when its serves great coffee, has tasty pastries (LOVE their zucchini bread) and cool people working there?
The fact that its nearly impossible to get a table inside many days because of all the people who won't do their work/studying in the office/library.
I get that coffee shops are the cool, hip place to show off that you have the latest. coolest Mac laptop with just the right stickers on it but do you really have to sit there all day?
There are days when I come in the morning for my first cuppa and later on for another and I'll often see the same guys in the same seats plugged into the ipods and mooching the free wi-fi. If they could find a way to make tables more available, it'll be a 5-star place
People thought this was:
Beautiful space, nice atmosphere. Really hard to get a table sometimes though which kind of sucks.
They have good coffee but the thing that keeps me from coming here as much as I want to is I hate to say it but the staff. I feel like I always get an attitude when I'm there and service is painfully slow most of the time. I hate saying that and I feel like I will get struck down by lightning for even thinking it but it's true. I worked in the service industry at coffee shops, waiting tables, bartending so I'm really patient and I realize sometimes things take time. But when the person in front of me only orders a large coffee and it still takes 5 minutes and that's not because you had to brew a new pot of coffee.. It's a problem. I'm not one of those people who expects the person behind the counter to be chatty or happy or even smiling but I do expect reasonably prompt service.
They get 2 stars for great quality coffee, serving your 'for here' coffee in an actual mug (thanks for that) and the beautiful space.
Parking is really hard on Grand in this area but if you check out Hubbard or some of the side streets you should find something pretty close.
People thought this was:
You can't beat the coffee and the atmosphere at Sip. They serve Intelligentsia, which I love. The service was extremely friendly. They have a beautiful back room in which to enjoy your coffee. I didn't try the food, but I'm sure it's tasty!
People thought this was:
The owner here is great and she has created top grade space.
Sure there is the surly guy who always steals the couch. Loud and chatty over there on the wall. Weird and over-caffeinated at the table. Cmon it's a coffee house.
The outdoor space is really nice.
parking can be a beeyatch, go around on hubbard.
People thought this was:
So many coffee places don't know how to make coffee. Sip makes excellent coffee. The guy behind the counter was polite and quick. It was raining so that meant that it was more crowded inside and the Sirius kept freezing. Also had a delicious muffin.
I'm so glad I stopped here. After a gruelling ten hour international flight out of O'Hare, I was craving a mocha and banana bread and needed to make a stop somewhere between the blue line and my apartment. Passing up my usual Swim, I ducked into Sip for the first time and was greeted with a generous slab of moist banana bread and an absolutely giant ceramic mug of mocha latte. The people working there were sincere and friendly, the atmosphere was nice, the location is great, the latte was good, the food options looked pretty good from what I saw. The only thing I would change is that I wish the banana walntu bread were a little tastier. Not that it was bad, but it wasn't as flavorful as a lot of banana breads I've had. The banana flavor was very very mild and I didn't taste the walnut at all.
People thought this was:
This place feels like it ought to be in the four-star category, but after pause, I'm rating it a three-star place. Certainly worth checking out, and will be happy to drop by in the neighborhood, but won't drive out of my way (and drive, you must, unless you live in the outskirts of West Loop) to be here.
The actual house and garden concept is delightful. It's basically two rooms (the coffee bar as you walk in, then a short hall, which opens up to a large, airy loft) that feel comfortable in the winter, and breezy in the summer. It feels more Californian (in a Santa Barbara / Monterey way) than Chicagoan, and I think that's what most people really like about the place. Me too. Plus, the rack of free (current) magazines is very nice, since I can always drop by not having to worry if they've ran out of the Reader and I'll bore myself to death.
So, now, the reason why I had to drop a star.
First, the coffee is expensive. Starbucks expensive. And then, they're not that good. Yes, they use (and even sell) Intelligentsia beans, and my favorite, Black Cat, but my Americano always tastes somewhat underwheming.
Also, as someone had commented earlier, there's no real, genuine friendly vibe here. The staff is courteous, but they seem somewhat distant/aloof. Yes, there are the customary hand-written signs and menus on the wall, but I don't get that warm-and-fuzzy feeling here. Even the patrons, a good majority (especially in the winter) are laptop-toting hipsters usually sitting by themselves, or as a couple (but each staring into their own screens) with little conversation, laughter or interaction. In fact, if you're up on the loft (where there are signs posted that this is for a group, and if you're not a group, you will be kicked down to regular tables and chairs), your noise echo through the room -- what kind of hushed conversation can a group enjoy here?
What they've got here is a good concept, and I'll certainly come back. I just wish they will become a bit more friendly here, knock off a quarter or two off their prices, and make better Americanos.
People thought this was:
SIP HAS FOOD NOW! Soup, Salad, Ciabatta, Noodle salad. It's nothing fancy, but then, they don't really have a kitchen, so I'm not complaining. Yay. Now i don't have to reply on cottage cheese and banana bread for lunch, which was never a balanced meal anyhow...
