I had the pleasure of trying Sip Lab on its opening day. This fantastic beverage laboratory offers craft drafts with a creative flair. Each drink is intentionally created and refined with the consumer experience in mind. Offering coffee, matcha, smoothies, and specialty drinks made to perfection. If you are hungry, they offer a wide range of croffles (croissant-waffle). I asked the barista, Josh, for their recommendation on a food and drink item. At their suggestion, I got an iced horchata cloud latte (they use 1883 Maison Routin syrup) and a caramel cinnamon crunch croffle. The drink came out quickly, and the flavor profile was phenomenal. The croffle was exceptional, the exterior slightly crunchy and the interior light and fluffy, with notes of maple syrup. The perfect vessel for holding the caramel sauce and Cinnamon Crunch topping, as it doesn't get soggy if not eaten immediately. read more

This was a very posh, modern coffee shop. The staff was very welcoming upon entering. You can order online, at the kiosk or at the counter with the staff. I chose a brown butter shaken espresso and the maple glazed croffle. The coffee was really good, I may try it 'Strong' next time (you can choose between Balanced, Sweet or Strong) as this was a little lackluster for me and the price point is a slightly higher than most coffee shops in the area. I probably would not go for the croffle again. While a unique item, it was warm and crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, the price point is also a little on the higher side for what you get. I'll return m to try some of their Classic cafe coffee choices. read more

A new venture from the owners of The Ice Cream Factory, Sip Lab is a lot, in many senses of the word. Positives first: the menu offers tons of options. There are lattes, mochas, cold brews, shaken espressos, matchas, chais, energy drinks, and smoothies (as well as croffles for those craving a sweet treat). Locally sourced ingredients - beans from Vignette and teas from Vida Pour - add to the appeal. Sip Lab also offers multiple ways to order, from standing in line to using an in-store kiosk to ordering ahead on a dedicated app. Speaking of ordering, the baristas here are friendly and will gladly customize a drink to match your preferences (including sweetness level). Despite the high volume of customers (more on that later), they turn around orders quickly. My wife and I went with a sea salt maple cloud cold brew and a banana cloud latte, respectively, and we were both very satisfied. The coffees were smooth, and the creamy cloud toppings added an extra touch we didn't know we were missing. Banana syrups can be hit or miss, and Sip Lab's version lands squarely in the "hit" column. So what's not to like? Perhaps because it is new, Sip Lab seems to keep very busy. You probably won't be able to score a table, and you might have to maneuver around people while waiting for your drink. While some might really appreciate the energetic vibe here, the appeal is limited for those who turn to coffee shops as reading/study/meeting spaces. Finally, the foam toppers aren't the only things in the clouds at Sip Lab. At $8 or so for a medium drink (and $5 or so for a small), prices are not for the faint of wallet. For better or for worse, Sip Lab is far from your usual coffee shop. If you want a unique drink made to your liking, don't mind the cost, and are taking it to go, Sip Lab has much to offer. Those looking to sit and sip, however, may want to look elsewhere. read more

SIP Lab is a newer spot under the same ownership as Ice Cream Factory, and I was excited to try it since Ice Cream Factory already has great desserts and treats. SIP Lab offers coffee, matcha, energy drinks, smoothies, and croffles in a modern, clean space with both indoor and outdoor seating. I went on their second day open and it was already very busy, so it's definitely getting a lot of attention. Hours of operation are: Monday-Friday: 6 AM - 10 PM Saturday-Sunday: 8 AM - 10 PM Parking is the biggest downside--it fills up quickly, so plan ahead. Ordering is easy with kiosks for customization or staff at the front, and screens that show your order status, which keeps things organized even when it's crowded. The service is really good--staff is friendly, attentive, and everything moves smoothly even when it's busy. The drinks come in cute cups and are well made. The croffles are delicious but a bit small for the price. I also love that it's a local shop--I really enjoy supporting local businesses like this. Overall, it's a great stop, especially if you're heading to work--you can grab coffee early since they open at 6 AM on weekdays. I'd definitely come back for the vibe, service, and drinks. read more

Went to the grand opening on Friday. The place was pretty full and there was a line. I wasn't mad about it because I understand that they're brand new and people want to try out the new spot in town. There were a couple of baristas working in the back and they seemed to be working pretty fast. The man up front taking orders was super nice and said thank you for being patient. I ordered the brown butter shaken espresso. I was asked if i would like it sweeter or moderate. I picked moderate. When asked if i wanted to get a specific milk I was told it would be free of charge. It did take a little bit of time for me to get my drink since there were others ahead of me but I was in no rush. Overall I would say my coffee was alright. Nothing that really blew my mind. I tasted my friends Horchata Matcha, which is something I will definitely be getting when I go back. Other than that I will be going back to try out their smoothies as well! Nice place with a cute little vibe going on inside. read more

We recently stopped by Sip Lab for an afternoon pick me up and were pleasantly surprised. A ton of drink options to choose from so something for everyone! I went with the caramel coconut cloud matcha and it was very tasty. A little on the sweeter side and would have preferred a little more matcha included, but still a tasty drink. read more

If you're looking for a refreshing drink... here's your place to customize! I tried the Iced Horchata Cloud Latte and the Watermelon Cucumber Mint refresher. They give you the option of sweetness level... which I did "Balanced" and would say they air on the side of pretty sweet. The refresher hit the spot perfectly for a hot day! The croffle is basically like an airy croissant with toppings... the smores one was sweeter than I could handle, but if that's what you're looking for it's delicious. I'd get the plain cinnamon sugar croffle next time. Staff are incredibly friendly and the owner was very kind. Happy to support this team and love that they sourced locally with Vignette Coffee and Vida Pour Tea. read more

Holy Crowaffle!!! I am honestly grateful I live 30 minutes from this place because my waistline wouldn't recover otherwise. The Nutella Crowaffle was perfect. It was lightly crispy and soft in the middle. It was flavorful and delicious: Soooo freaking good! Loved it. The blue drink was ok, I will be trying another drink the next go round. read more

Very friendly team there and a wonderful selection of drinks. Classic coffee drinks with a few new ones to me such as the espresso con panna, a single shot of espresso with a bit of whipped cream. They have 5 booths for sitting plus a few waiting chairs and 6 tables and chairs outside. While I haven't tried any yet, they have a full menu of iced drinks including lemonades, smoothies, teas and fizzy drinks. As the days get warmer I can imagine sitting at one of the outdoor tables enjoying a cold beverage. They have done an excellent job finishing out the space and invested in some very nice equipment. The espresso has a rich, slightly sweet flavor and makes an excellent drink on its own or as the base to something else. You should give them a try. read more

**OPENS APRIL, REVIEW IS FOR SOFT OPENING** I had the privilege of being present during this soft launch (with free samples), courtesy of the owner! Sip Lab is a boutique coffee shop that bases their drinks off locally-roasted coffee. Besides serving a great cup of Joe, their coffee drinks are superb, with a highly customizable selection of bases (non dairy milks!), and high-quality flavors. The owner splurged on the quality of his ingredients, and it shows in the finished products. Sip Lab took over the space where Starbucks was, and is a vastly superior replacement. The owner decided to foray into coffee after starting the highly successful Ice Cream Factory. The interior is cozy, yet modern and is a more relaxed environment than the action-packed than more family-oriented Ice Cream Factory. I was served a White Chocolate Latte with oat milk, which was well-balanced between coffee flavors and chocolate, without being overly-sweet. There's also house-crafted energy drinks, and the watermelon flavor was superb. My wife said the Biscoff bliss was delicious. The mango-pineapple smoothie (they have smoothies too!) was great. Additionally, Sip Lab will serve bakery goods, and I've been told (by my wife) that the croffle was really good! Judging by the bakery selections at Ice Cream factory (best vegan brownie ever), I'm predicting Sip's bakery options will be sure to please. With the closing of Clutch, this fills and even exceeds the void left. This is destined to be my favorite coffee spot once it opens. Even if you're not into sweet coffee drinks, the base coffee and espresso is high-quality. read more

This is my second time here. Let me say I love this place already ! The first visit I used the kiosk in store to order and got a strawberry cloud matcha which was very good. I wanted another but didn't wanna wait to get one since it was very busy being that they just opened. This second time the kiosk was off so I stood in line which wasn't long. Laci took my order for a lavender cloud matcha + vanilla & macadamia milk and a gift card I wanted for a friends birthday present. She made me feel welcomed and answered questions I had about the different milks, flavors, and of course how to keep my points accruing from my last visit. I love how you can earn points easily and actually redeem them pretty quickly for future visits. I'm almost at my $5 off reward. Love the ambiance and look overall. I do wish they had more places to sit as it gets busy there are no places to wait for your order and it gets a little congested near the front. Other than that I am fully satisfied with my orders I've received. I will be back. Keep it up y'all ! read more

I loved sip lab. I ordered 2 coffees and a lavender matcha for me and my kids, and I was a very big fan. I got to have a sip of each one and they were all immaculate #momtax. The service was quick and excellent considering how busy they were. They took an amazing page out of the chick-fil-a handbook and had a board that tells you the estimated wait time on your drinks. The ambiance in the shop was incredible and I could see myself working there once the opening hype cools down. Overall amazing coffee and cheaper than Starbucks. Would recommend. read more

Loved my experience at Sip Lab! Their matcha was really good and you could actually taste the cinnamon in it, which made it even better. I also loved the Biscoff croffle -- definitely one of my favorite things I tried. Their smoothies were great too, and I liked that you can add protein to them. They also have sugar-free energy refreshers, which is a huge plus. The drinks are super aesthetic and the whole place is a vibe. I also liked that you can order online through their app, use the kiosk if you don't feel like talking to anyone, or order at the register. Everything was really fast, especially considering it was their grand opening! read more

I went in and the place was packed. I would say maybe around 40 people or so. The space is extremely small which is normal for a new business; However, the kiosks are inconveniently located at the front where everyone picks up and walks in the door so we all had to squeeze together in one tiny space to order and wait on our drinks. I feel like the kiosks would have better served their purpose on the other side. I wasn't sure where the line started and ended as there was no signage to indicate where to go and it was hard to figure out with that many people standing around waiting. Some were sitting in the booths at the tables which made it easier for those who had to stand. The booths are nice..and there are some tables outside where you can sit as well. I'm sure this will (hopefully) not be an issue going forward as they just opened. I ordered one iced brown sugar matcha and one iced caramel coconut mocha latte through the kiosk once I figured out they don't have a cashier so you have to order through the kiosk or through the app. Which is fine....maybe not so much for older or disabled people....Parking is terrible but it's in a multiple business location..so also expected. My matcha came out within 5 minutes and I'm pretty sure it was just straight matcha. It did not taste good at all. I then waited over half an hour for that latte that also tasted like metallic waste. I tried to be patient since they had so many people in there and I'm sure people were ordering through the app too but it got to a point where I had been standing there for half an hour and staff had asked me if I had a latte with it and I said yes. No one asked where it was or did anything about it. I stood there another 5 minutes or so and then I had to ask about it. Staff then made the latte..........After almost an hour. It would not have even been a big deal if they would've just asked me if I was missing something. I was literally standing at the front counter right in front of them waiting. I was looking at them and they were looking at me for half an hour. Again, I know it was slammed. But you can't ask me if I'm missing something when I'm standing there for that long? Others also had this issue as well. And then for everything to taste the way it did...............oh boy. Uh uh. No thank you and never again. Which I hate because I love supporting small businesses but when small businesses don't support me don't expect it in return. That is all. 0/10 read more
