Stopped in for the first time on a whim, wish I hadn’t waited so long! Wine and cheese board were delicious, the owner was friendly and very welcoming. It was exactly what I was looking for after a long day. What a great little spot!

Sip Wine Bar stands out as a unique and memorable spot in Old Saybrook. What makes it truly special is Derrik, a certified Sommelier who brings a rare level of passion and expertise to the table. He doesn’t just recommend wine—he creates a tailored journey based on your palate and interests.
The opportunity to taste reserve wines is a standout feature and adds a level of exclusivity that’s hard to come by. Derrik’s skill in pairing wines with meats and cheeses is impressive and turns a simple tasting into a full sensory experience.
The menu is clear, inviting, and easy to navigate, making it approachable for all levels of wine knowledge. Whether you're dropping in for a casual glass or diving deep into the world of wine, Sip delivers something far beyond the ordinary.
A fantastic addition to the Old Saybrook scene—Sip isn’t just a place to drink wine; it’s a place to enjoy it with intention.

Sip Wine Bar is an absolute gem in Old Saybrook! What truly sets this place apart is Derrik, a certified Sommelier who doesn’t just pour wine—he curates an experience. From the moment you walk in, he engages with you to understand your preferences and guide you through the selections in a way that’s personal, thoughtful, and incredibly knowledgeable.
I especially love that he offers reserve wines you can try—something you don’t often find in most wine bars. His pairing suggestions for meats and cheeses are spot-on and really elevate the tasting. The menu is beautifully laid out, making it easy to explore and discover new favorites.
Whether you're a seasoned wine lover or just beginning your journey, Sip is a place where you’ll feel welcomed, educated, and taken care of. A true pleasure to have in the heart of Old Saybrook!

We rented out Sip for a Women’s Conference this week. The team at Sip went above and beyond to help us kick off a fantastic evening! The charcuterie was fantastic, the wines were outstanding, and the ambiance was beautiful. I would highly recommend Sip to anyone for anything from a glass of wine to hosting an event. Thank you so much to the Sip team for everything!
My boyfriend and I found an amazing spot while driving around in the area. The staff were welcoming and kind, and they let us sample their amazing wines. We really enjoyed them! Our favorite was the passion fruit slushy—it was delicious, we can't wait to go back for more! It was a wonderful experience!

Absolutely loved this place.... I don't drink wine at ALL... So when I was up in Connecticut and my family wanted to give it a shot I said ok. Let me 1st say that the experience was nothing short of perfect. When the owner came over to me I flat out told him, that the only wine I drink is Sangria. He was awesome he said no problem I have the perfect thing for you, and talked me into the sampler just to broaden my horizon. His knowledge on wine, wanted me to like wine even more. I don't know what else to tell you except that this place was truly such a great experience. So for someone that doesn't like wines and still thought that it was really cool place and you should 100% try it... I dont know if think it says it all!!!! Try it

Sip Wine Bar is the best! They make an effort to welcome everyone and share in their love for wine. After going there a few times, we recently purchased a few bottles of Italian wines at a local package store and the owner stated “Wow! you have really know your Italian wines. These are what I would would have picked for myself.” Thank SIP!!!! You have opened our eyes and made wine even more enjoyable.
