    Overlooks the park
    Tal O.

    I wrote a review for Sip Cafe back in March, and after months of trying new spots all around Boston, I can confidently say it's still my favorite. Every time I come back, it just feels right, cozy, calm, and consistently delicious. Their caramel latte is still my fav; it's perfect every single time. The atmosphere is unbeatable, with those big windows that let in so much light and overlook the park. My only complaint is that they're closed on weekends because I would absolutely be here every Sunday morning if I could. Sip is one of those rare spots that feels special every time you visit. Definitely stop by and support them!

    This is an excellenr location in the middle of Post Office Square. My niece and I took shelter here during a torrential rainstorm and enjoyed a smoothie and a hot dirty chai respectively as we watched the commuters brave the elements through the extensive glass windows. This would be a great place to fire up a laptop and get some work done in the heart of Boston's Financial District!

    Check out their soup of the day!

    I have passed by this cafe so many times and always wanted to stop but didn't. Today, I am glad I did! Pretty busy for a Sat in Post Office Square and I was glad to see it. They have a great menu with a variety of stuff along with speciality drinks. I had the pumpkin spice latte made with real pumpkin. This is the first time I've had one like this and IT WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITES. I even asked them to make a little less sweet and they obliged no problem at all. It was perfect. They have a lovely seating area outside with blankets and (I think) heaters-fire pits. I will def be back but next time it will be to have an alcoholic beverage. They have some pretty good ones on tap, including my all time favorite cider--Downeast. Till next time!

    Salted Caramel Latte

    I walked into Sip Cafe on a Friday evening and there were plenty of seating. I ordered a large, salted caramel latte and it was ready within a reasonable time. The cup was larger than I expected which came to be a nice surprise. The coffee was lukewarm, so I was able to drink it promptly. Although the coffee was salted caramel flavor, it is not overwhelmingly sweet. I enjoyed it quite a lot. The cafe had a nice atmosphere giving a really cozy feel. I also enjoyed how late they opened as it was a great place to chill and kill time. I would come back to try their other items if I am in the area.

    Sip is a cozy cafe for studying with their free wifi and abundance of seating. In terms of food, we tried their Italian Sandwich and it was ok. The salami and banana peppers overwhelmed most of the other flavors. Their Bufala Mozzarella sandwich was really good though. It was an elevated caprese sandwich, but the buffalo mozzarella was far richer than other cheeses. Simply amazing. Their Salted Caramel Latte was great too. The Salted Caramel flavor definitely came through and they have plenty of non-dairy milks you can opt for. Their service is fine, the food & drinks came out quickly and the baristas seemed nice. Overall, Sip Cafe is definitely one of the better cafes in Boston.

    Im so surprised and upset that I've lived and worked within a few blocks of this park and Sip and never seen it/been in. How have I avoided this for decade++?? Anywho it's stunningly beautiful to sit outside, and is going to be my new lunch break spot. The macaroons were a bit heavy to me and I probably wouldn't get them again (I got 2-raspberry and dark chocolate) but the iced latte with oat milk is very very nice. And they have /beer/wine! So definitely a lunch break spot on a rough day too (for legal reasons that's a joke lmaooooo but what a great place for any time to stop by at!!) the folks working there are also pretty friendly! Oh and they have wifi.

    Sip Café has some of the best lattes I've ever had. If I had to pick a favorite spot for coffee in Boston, it's Sip. They also have the cutest outdoor seating when it's warm enough outside, and have fires and heaters even if it's a chillier day which is fantastic since there isn't a ton of seating inside. However, I think their salads aren't anything too special. The Greek Salad was supposed to gave artichokes on it which is why I ordered it, but it didn't have a single one which was disappointing. They are super pricey salads for mostly just being plain lettuce without any interesting flavors.

    Held our annual office EndofSummer event here in the courtyard. They put up out firm name and ripped off lounge chairs, tables and high tops with food and exquisite cocktails.

    Perfect spot to sit on a beautiful day and enjoy a refreshing drink or pastry and watch the world go by in the adjoining park.

    I really loved my time at this place. This cafe looks like it's in a greenhouse situated in the middle of a park in downtown Boston. The menu was pretty straightforward and staff friendly. I ordered a ginger latte and a turkey sandwich and oh boy they were delicious. I've heard of lavender lattes, ube lattes etc but was my first time trying ginger latte and it did not disappoint, packed with that good third wave coffee and sweet sweet ginger flavor. The turkey sandwich, though a common order, was also melt in the mouth good. Probably best coffee place I've been to out of three during this trip to Boston.

    I was torn between 3 and 4 stars for Sip. The coffee is pretty good, but slightly pricey. They do have dairy-free options, which is nice. I got an almond milk iced mocha, extra sweet. The selling point for this place is definitely the location! It's beautiful, clean, and right inside Post Office Square. It's peaceful sitting on the tables and just enjoying the sunshine on a nice Boston day.

    This was a cool place to grab a drink. The exterior is really cool and almost looks like a greenhouse. I ordered the chai, which was decent, but could have been a bit more flavorful. It looked like they also had a selection of wine and beer, so I could see this being a good spot for after work.

It had a crunchy, sugary exterior with a soft, buttery center and a delicious streusel swirl throughout. The texture contrast was spot on -- crisp on the outside and tender in the middle. Definitely a pastry I'd order again. The iced pistachio latte, however, didn't meet expectations. Instead of a smooth pistachio flavor infused into the coffee, there were actual pieces of pistachio that settled at the bottom and repeatedly clogged my straw. It required more chewing than sipping, which wasn't what I anticipated. I was hoping for a pistachio syrup or sauce blended seamlessly into the drink for a smoother experience. Overall, the visit was okay. The pastry was a standout, but the latte fell short. Prices are on the higher side, though that's fairly expected for Boston.

I also tried an iced flat white but it wasn't as good.. something about the steamed milk with the perfectly pulled espresso was a stand out! The pastries are fine. Good but nothing special. We tried the pistachio croissant, banana bread, and chocolate croissant. Banana bread was fluffier and less moist than I would like. Both croissants were good, I liked that they weren't too sweet. Long line when I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and the place was packed. We took to go but even if we wanted to stay, there were no open seats. It is similar to Tatte and flour where you order at the counter and they give you a number to place on your table. Would 100% return for the lattes!
