Sips Espresso Cafe Reviews
Called Sips because I’d never been there before & the sweet girl who answered talked me through what drink I might like! She was so helpful & nice! 100/10 service & coffee!!!
Sips has exactly what you want from a local coffee shop: friendly people, a comfortable atmosphere, centrally located in the neighborhood, and plenty of tasty drinks.
A great little coffee place! Semi-Outside seating is really the only option so keep that in mind. Additionally, parking is difficult.

Sips Espresso Cafe in Athens has been a local favorite for over a decade. The cafe offers a warm atmosphere, friendly staff, and a wide variety of snacks, making it a great spot to meet someone. Customers can choose between 1000 Faces or Jittery Joe's coffee, and they can also enjoy the cafe's delicious scones, pastries, and breads. The indoor seating is cozy, perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee, and outdoor seating is also available, adding to the relaxed vibe.
Recently, the cafe has started roasting its own coffee, which has received great praise. Customers often mention the well-extracted espresso and the cozy, relaxed atmosphere that makes it a true Athens spot. The seasonal drinks and blueberry muffins are popular choices, and the friendly baristas consistently provide kind service. The muffins are considered fabulous, and the atmosphere is always welcoming.
While parking can be tricky during busy dinner times, options like parking at Agua Linda spaces or finding a free metered space on Prince street help visitors. With hardworking employees and attentive owners, Sips Espresso Cafe remains a must-visit for coffee lovers in the area.
