I have passed by this coffee shop so many times in a hurry to make it to the next appointment or work related thing. Leap year day, I stopped in! I brought my work laptop with me to stay for a little while, sip, eat, and work. Logging into the wifi here was very easy, and I picked a spot right by the window to work (nice views and lighting) I ordered a small London Fog tea which came with loose leaf tea (not a tea bag) steeped into my cute mug - this really makes all the difference. Thank you sippers for going the extra mile and choosing loose leaf tea. I also was able to substitute the whole milk for oat milk which was very nice. Let me get to this açaí bowl. I've eaten in the next plaza over at Juice Tap; had their açaí bowl over there, & liked it. Since this is a coffee shop first, I wasn't expecting the açaí bowl to be as superb as it really was (at only 8-9 dollars at that too) It was late lunch and I needed something in my tummy. The blend of açaí they make, the heart of what's in the bowl underneath all of the pretty toppings, was So good! Fresh! I had chunks in it (small fruit chunks) from it being freshly blended. The mixture was So creamy too but not overly creamy. They also drizzle the top with some honey which is my favorite part! I was allowed to substitute the blueberry toppings for extra strawberries instead and that really made my day. The fact that I was able to order an açaí bowl under ten bucks - wow! Super grateful for the very reasonable pricing here. But to then be blown away with the quality of this price friendly açaí bowl too - I was kicking myself for not stopping in here sooner, especially since I lived in a nearby apartment complex for 2 years right down the street. Sippers is now up there in my top 5 coffee shops of Jax to visit to either work, eat, sip, or grab something to go. Yall the music - I know that's a random thing to notice but since I was working in here for a couple of hours yesterday, lol, I noticed. First I think it was Christian music; after a couple songs, the main Star Wars theme song came on, followed by Michael buble, and then some smooth jazz or classical music. I was so entertained by the mix up. Star Wars had me cracking up though bc if you have ever listened to the whole thing, that one song goes on and on for an awkwardly long time - I was here for it. This shop stays steady! Goes to show just how many love it. I'm very happy to see this place thrive in such a good location too! The service here was very hospitable. You could tell I was a newbie and no one seemed to get annoyed with my questions on what to order. Parking can be kindive tricky since it's in a small strip with other businesses, but it's not too bad. I waited maybe all of 30 seconds for a customer to pull out of a spot so I could pull in and use theirs. I would absolutely come back and will be!
This place is cool as it has coffee flights and who doesn't love that! They are call ahead before 1 pm for flights and will make them in shop after that. The staff are friendly and there is a drive through option here. There is usually a bit of a wait for food or coffee here but it is good.
Love the ambiance and decor, great coffee! The food was fresh. The place is well located
Cute retro decor! Love the Peanuts themed coffee menu for fall! Nice place to get some work done. Not a lot of hullabaloo, just a neighborhood coffee spot with plenty of different purposes: coffee date? They have a nice little niche for some privacy with its little cut out windows and a sign that says there's a time limit.. lol you know, so others can enjoy the space. They have little nooks and corners if you need a spot to study. There's a spot by the restroom..It looks like one of those library desks that basically speaks for itself and reminds of the desks I used in high school that made a statement "leave me alone I have a test on Monday!" They serve Pura Bean coffee which I'm a huge fan of. Loving the space and drinks here!
So I had to kill some time while waiting for the fingerprinting person to arrive at going postal. Upon arriving I spotted this little cafe so thought that this would be a good opportunity to check it out. Before entering I noticed that there was ample outdoor seating which was nice. The inside is small and has a quaint cozy feel. The Decor is very trendy and cute and has a vintage type feel to it. I explored their menu and chose to get an ice macchiato with butter pecan flavor. They also have a variety of sweet treats to choose from, which look very scrumptious. The service was quick and friendly and the Vibe was really chill. And my drink was on point. Great choice!!! Looks like they have a variety of different breakfast sandwiches to choose from as well. If you're in this area and in need of a quick pick me up I would definitely give them a try. The only gripe I did have was about the outdoor seating. The chairs are metal and hard and being a person with a herniated disc in my lower back sitting in them was not comfortable.
