    We biked here from our hotel and I am so glad we did. I got a vanilla cold brew and it was yummy, my daughter got a matcha. My son got an açaí bowl that was delicious. My daughter also got a breakfast sandwich that was so good we got another. My son even got me a cute hat.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sip N Sea is so cute!! A lil popup with outdoor seating near the beach - the perfect spot to spend your morning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the brown sugar latte and it has to be the best brown sugar syrup I've ever had - they make it in-house! I ordered it iced with oat half sweet, and it was amazing. The cups are also great - I kept it for future home to on the go coffees! Next time, I really want to try their other house-made syrups like the Butterscotch + their smoothies ((:

    The 1/2 sweet HOT Dirty Chai is the bomb! Perfect every time! I love the new lids on their cups. Cute and functional. The baristas are quick with filling orders and make a perfect cup every time.

    Fantastic açaí (complete with gluten free granola!!), smoothies, and coffee! This has become our go to spot for açaí bowls as they're always so fresh, huge, and super reasonably priced! We love the ability to order ahead online and then enjoy on their cute covered patio. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The murals are a fun touch too![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    This little gem had THE BEST acai/pitaya bases I have ever recalled trying! I am so happy to have stumbled upon it when my husband and I were staying in San Diego. The service was quick and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the outdoor seating had a cute beachy mural.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would come back again anytime I'm in San Diego area!

    OG Acai Bowl

    Cute spot with great Acai bowls. You'll probably see a line but it goes fairly quickly. Parking can be challenging and they are currently doing some construction on the street, which isn't helping. Workers were very nice! Acai bowls are tasty! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seating is outdoor only, but it was nice to have a bit of sunshine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, would recommend!

    The coffee is always delicious and they never disappoint. Definitely one of our favorite places!

    My boyfriend and I come to this spot all the time. The coffee is always delicious, and never disappoints. Definitely one of our favorite spots!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love Sip-N- Sea location. It has cool beach vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You will know the place when you see long line, but don't feel discouraged because it moves very fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have nice mural.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outdoor seating are available.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is no bathroom.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We parked in the residential area. The menu includes; açai bowls, smoothies, latte, coffee, specialty lattes, gold brews, retail coffee,matcha, seasonal drinks, tea. In addition to their fresh bakery. We ordered; -Monkey business Matcha 5/5 It's coconut syrup and banana cold foam. The drink had unique taste, with adequate sweetness, rich flavor and creaminess. -Banana bread latte 5/5 Brown sugar, banana cream and foam, nutmeg and cinnamon. The drink was refreshing. The mixture of the creamy banana and the brown sugar gave the drink a unique and rich flavor -Coconut Caramel cookie 5/5 My goodness! That was indulgent, buttery,and had the perfect texture. -Banana Nutella muffins 5/5 The muffin was moist and rich in banana flavor then the center had rich and gooey chocolate. It was heavenly! The staff were very welcoming and genuinely warm. The service was really fast. Definitely, I will be back to try their açai bowls and order more drinks.

    Came to this place after craving a smoothie. Parking is street parking. This is a small shack with no inside but there is covered seating to the side with a couple of tables. The service was friendly and fast. We got the mango and peach smoothies. Extremely refreshing!

    Sip-N-Sea Cafe has one of the best açaí bowls in San Diego. I ordered the coconut açaí bowl and it was refreshing with the right sweetness. The coconut gave it a creamier texture and there was a good amount of fruit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location was on Coast 101 highway which is a plus and has plenty of seating outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Johnson P.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Really cute shop and location![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We got the açaí bowls and it was really creamy and perfectly balanced sweetness and tartness. It is a bit on the pricier side but down to support local shops! Parking is also easy since they have a big lot!

    Awesome place to stop on the way to San Diego. We had the opportunity to stop here for the first time this past weekend and it did not disappoint. We placed an online order for one of the acai bowls, an iced honey matcha, and an iced vanilla matcha. Everything was excellent, especially the acai being sourced from a small farm in Brazil, you can truly taste the difference! I had never tasted such a flavorful acai before that wasn't mixed with other juices. Dare I say it's the best quality acai I've ever experienced?! You won't regret a pitstop here! Thank you to the nice ladies who gave us our order!

    Bite

    This place lives up to the hype. Their acai bowl is amazing and huge and delicious, I would say it's my new favorite in SD. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great shaded outdoor seating and amazing service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Can't wait to return to try their drinks!!

    The coffee was just ok. They Duke the coffee too much with milk. Remove like 10-15% of the milk and it might be better.

When I was ordering, the person taking my order didn't seem very interested in giving recommendations when I asked, but the barista who made the drinks was very nice and the coffee itself was excellent, which made up for it. There's some construction going on in the area right now, but I was still able to find parking without too much trouble. The food also looked really good, though I only tried the drinks this time. There is ample seating and bathrooms for customers in the back. Overall, great coffee and I'd definitely come back to try more of their menu.

You can taste the quality in every cup, and the drinks overall are excellent. That said, my Red light it's really expensive for most people, so it feels more like a treat than an everyday stop. The one area they could improve is the service. The staff sometimes feel a bit rushed and not super helpful, especially if you're new or asking questions about their drinks. They don't always take the time to explain things. To be honest it's more like they just want to take your order and move on to the next customer. I'd give it a solid 4 out of 5. Great drinks and quality beans make it worth visiting, but the higher prices and inconsistent service keep it from being a regular favorite for me. If you love good coffee and don't mind paying a premium with okay service, it's still worth checking out.

So I have to wait in line, only to hold everyone up once at the front to look at the options. Putting them somewhere to the side of the line, so people can browse while waiting is the way, or even somewhere outside the line altogether.
