    Coffee Plain Croissant
    Jeremy R.

    Community staple. Great coffee, service, music and art. A must visit of you're in the Bronzeville area.

    Great addition to the neighborhood! This is a cozy but still spacious coffee shop. They have some cool art work as well. The speciality drinks are a bit on the sweet side but they have the all time classics as well. The staff is helpful and super friendly. I ordered a dirty chai latte for the first time today and it's my new all time favorite. I saw a few people getting their reusable cups filled. I'll have to explore that option!

    A very clean and nicely decorated place to enjoy a cup of coffee. Visited this establishment yesterday morning (meet and greet) ugh!!! I digress, and was happy to walk in and be greeted by the gentleman behind the counter. I asked for the infamous large caramel coffee and a banana nut muffin. Sorry I didn't pay so I can't speak about pricing. I did notice the small drinks were listed as $4.50 and I heard him tell the gentleman the muffin was $4.00. So I guess I can speak about pricing. Lol The ambiance is inviting, with rustic looking tiles on the ceiling, hand painted black art throughout the seating area, cool light fixtures and distressed wood panels on the wall. Free wi-fi and large windows to bring in the sun as you enjoy coffee and music. I will definitely come back,...alone!

    My daughter asked if we could patronize a black owned business while I was on vacation and I immediately thought of Sip & Savor. We went to the Hyde Park location but couldn't find parking so we came here. There's easy parking on both sides of the street and beautiful artwork on the walls like the other locations too. They have so many choices but I decided on an iced French vanilla latte. It was delicious! My daughter had some kind of blended drink and she loved it. The lady who served us was not aware of the offer on Yelp for 15% off a $10 purchase but the owner was there and he graciously honored it for us. He invited us to check out the newly opened patio, so we did. It is lovely! No one else was out there at the time so we really enjoyed it. They have ample seating inside too, even during this pandemic. We signed up for their rewards program and it looks like great offers. I only wish we lived closer! Still, we will definitely be back.

    This location is a short walk from the "L" at 43rd St. off of the Green line and a cool spot for meeting in this part of Bronzeville without the hustle and bustle. They serve coffee and espresso drinks, but also milkshakes with a shot of espresso which they call a smoothie. On a hot summer day in Chicago, I could see myself ordering one of their smoothies while having a seat on their patio located in the back of the coffee shop. The atmosphere, in general, is pretty standard with a long, one sided booth, tables, and chairs. They also have seating at the bar which is convenient and a couple of cozy chairs to use while reading a book next to a faux fireplace.

    Sip, Savor, and Celebrate! Sip & Savor is an adorable little coffee shop in the Bronzeville neighborhood. I happened across it on my way to church, and am so glad that I found it! The atmosphere is a perfect coffee house vibe, with comfy chairs for relaxing, bar stools for snacking, and traditional tables and chairs if you want to work remotely. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the coffee and tea selections are vast. You can even grab a little something to eat while you're there. This location is located next to a pop-up park that'll be a perfect spot to relax once spring has sprung.

    This chill neighborhood coffee spot in Bronzeville has a blend of meetings and laptop-entrepreneurs during the day. The vibe is simple with some strong art picks. The summer has a larger 12-table back deck open which has a lot of potential - although umbrellas for shade would make it. Hot coffee and food here has been quality and standard. Iced coffee I had recently tasted a little burnt or over-extracted, but could have just been that batch. Consistently have had friendly / professional staff interaction. Like this place.

    I've been to the sip & savor in Hyde Park but this my first time at the location in Bronzeville! This location is so cute! It's small but very cozy. They have all the coffee flavors and teas you can think of! My favorite part about this location was the decor. The decor is super hipster. I love it. Also, if you don't know, this place is black owned. Great coffee, a great vibe and an overall great visit. Highly recommend

    My favorite drink.

    Excellent environment to study or sip coffee. Cool merch. There are Pl ugs everywhere

    Well run local black owned business with 3 locations: 1 in Hyde Park and 2 in Bronzeville (47th and Michigan; and 43rd and just east of King). This one on 43rd is my favorite because it is the coziest, offers indoor and outdoor seating, and is the closet to my house. Thus far I have visited about 10 times ( just started checking in on Yelp) and plan to continue coming. Located a few minutes walk from the Green Line or a minutes bike ride from the protected bike lanes on King, Sip and Savor is rather unpretentious and offers exactly what you expect from a local coffee shop. Really no more and no less. I usually go for the drip coffee or the hot tea with lemon and honey (they always get the ratios on point for this). But I have seen them make espresso drinks and more complex beverages before and the baristas appear to be knowledgeable and skilled. They also offer a small variety of local pastries like scones, red velvet cake, and birdie bars for purchase. To my knowledge, however, no food is made on site so if you are looking for a breakfast to go with your coffee I recommend eating somewhere else first (maybe peaches on 47th, just sayin' ) I have always experienced really high quality WiFi which makes Sip&Savor a good place to be productive. WiFi code is provided at the bottom of your receipt, however, so you must make a purchase in order to use it. What I really like about this location is the variety in seating. There is a set of couches in an open area underneath a large window to let the light in this area is flanked by beautiful Afrocentric art pieces. Main seating is a large leather bench along the walk with tables and a chair on the opposite side and there is an outdoor patio for the summer. I would recommend umbrellas though to provide shade especially for laptop users. In terms of people: I have never encountered any staff who have behaved unprofessionally or rudely. They always take my order pretty promptly and are responsive when I need something. Despite the location being away from the main strip I have run into local government officials, school board members, PhD candidates, and other pretty cool people here who are generally kind enough to share an outlet or scoot over on the bench. Will be tetur

    Heaven in a cup.

    I will attempt not to delve into hyperbole, but I truly love this spot. When I first heard about Sip & Savor, an up and coming Black-owned coffee shop on the South Side of Chicago, I had to visit. When I say this is a classy establishment, I mean it in every sense of the word. I was welcomed by the heavenly aroma of fresh coffee and met with table after table of young professionals making plans, old friends catching up, and coffee aficionados sipping their new favorite brew. The staff is incredibly friendly and engaging. The walls are decorated with art by talented locals and greatly enhance the vibe. I'd honestly like to shake the manager's hand, but they're always so busy. That's a wonderful problem to have. My only conflict here is I equally love the Hyde Park location. Since I visited this one first, they get the glowing review. I'll be visiting both, frequently, as long as they're around. Do yourself a favor and do the same.

    This was my first time trying Sip & Savor, but definitely won't be my last. My office space was just moved and I was looking for a coffee shop within walking distance. My interaction with Andreaus was phenomenal. He was patient, helpful and made the best frappe I've had in a while.

    After getting my Covid Vaccine, I wanted some pick me up. I've had it before, but you can't go wrong with Sip and Savor. I love their Frappe Royal. You can taste the freshness of the coffee bean, Bold but Sweet!

    Super cute cafe in "downtown" Hyde Park with excellent coffee and friendly service…read more I'm not a coffee aficionado, but my dad is, and he was very happy with the quality of the coffee. The cafe doesn't have coffee with "regular" names (eg. Americano). Instead, each item on the menu has a Philz-only name and twist. This makes for a more unique experience that other cafes in Hyde Park. I enjoyed their Iced Coffee Rose, and my father enjoyed both the Silken Splendor and Jacob's Wonderbar. The decor is warm and inviting, and the cashiers and baristas are always friendly and helpful. The cashier in fact walked me through their selection quite extensively and patiently. I haven't tried any of their food so far, but definitely intend to do so. The establishment is open only till 3pm on weekdays, which is unfortunate because otherwise this would have become my default study spot. I still plan to visit, perhaps with a book or two. Overall, I recommend Philz if you are in the neighborhood in the morning or early afternoon.

    My first time at a Philz!! They don't have this franchise in nyc and I've been hearing all about it…read morefrom the west coast influencers, so I had to stop by on my CHI visit. TBH, Philz is just like any standard coffee shop, offering different kinds of roasts, teas, and light bites. I asked the cashier for a rec and they pointed to the popular flavors. I'm not a dark roast lover, but also wanted a good cup of coffee, so I got the Philtered Soul, which is their medium roast. I initially ordered it hot, but it was pretty warm (~50+ degrees, warm in chi standards lol) that day, so the barista gladly pivoted and made my drink cold. They asked iced or cold brew and I said dealer's choice - I got the cold brew and it was a GREAT gamble!! Loved that there was a cup of free keychains at the register, so I had to take one back w me as a souvenir. Bright spot with ample seating and locals working on laptops. Shoutout to the Philz staff for an overall delightful visit and enjoyable bev!

This however means that the servers and staff put little to no effort in creating a welcoming environment for patrons: they are often curt and unhelpful. They are also unapologetic when they get orders wrong or mixed up, which happens more than one might think. The food itself has not been disappointing, though I would recommend their savoury selections over the sweets. The drinks have generally been good, and I quite liked the Vietnamese iced coffee. The ambiance is super pretty, with cozy couches and comfortable chairs. The location is also fantastic, with a lovely porch that's nice to hang out in during the warmer months. The cafe would make an excellent study spot, but the poor quality of service coupled with the pricey food and drink options make me exceedingly reluctant to return. Visit at your own risk!
