I'm currently staying with a buddy in the area and was encouraged to check this place out for some morning coffee. First and foremost, it's a black owned business, so I was already a fan from the start. When you walk in, there's a smooth comfortable feeling you get. The music is soulful and the staff are pleasant. There's plenty of seating spaces. The best part about this cafe are the prices. I ordered a pour over coffee which only cost me 3.50 plus tip (you should always tip ) Coming from the Bay Area, this was amazing. Finally, they brew their own coffee and the coffee itself tasted rather calming. It wasn't harsh and had a refreshing twist on it. All in all I really enjoyed my experience.

Absolutely loved my experience at Sip and Sonder! The coffee is strong and delicious, making it the perfect pick-me-up. The warm and welcoming ambiance, paired with great music, creates a cozy vibe that's hard to beat. The baristas were incredibly friendly and crafted an amazing medium caramel latte with oat milk that I can't stop thinking about. I’ll definitely be back for more! Highly recommend this gem!

Excellent place, super clean and well thought out. Great energy in the building and space, the green plants make the environment seem alive with positivity! The owner is a specter of good health and has a awesome vibe that is welcoming, also the staff are knowledgeable and talented. These people care about people and coffee!

Drinks are okay. But atmosphere is 11/10. I got the tumeric latte, it was nice. Amazingly spacious, fast wifi, good ac, amazing music and sound system. Amazing place to come here and work, great environment. Blew me away walking in.

One of my favorite coffee shops in the area. Every time I go here the baristas are so sweet and accommodating. Outstanding service. Comfortable set up for hanging out or getting work done with indoor and outdoor seating. Make sure to try the caramelized sugar croissant. Everything you could ask for in a coffee shop you get to support a Black women owned business-- could not recommend more!
It's ZEE.

This place has the right kind of character. Coffee is the perfect morning treat & the pastries are delicious! You can definitely enjoy the chill atmosphere with friends to catch up or as a spot to get some work done!

Look here. This place has been on my list for some time as a recommendation. Came here in passing and not disappointed. Ordered quad shot rose latte. I think I got too many shots cuz the rose taste was subtle (my fault) but still delicious. And I got a Kouign-amann. I’ve had one before but this was delicious. Spent 16. 9/10 I’d say About 5 people were in their working. I’m honestly going to come back and work also. Great environment and not too busy at 9am. There is music playing but just being some noise cancelation headphones if you have a meeting or need quiet moments. I wish they had more 2 seater tables but there is AMPLE room for community sitting. Probably best decision for the size of the space.

Absolutely amazing spot! Tucked into Market St, there’s street parking right out front and lots of comfortable seating inside to sit and sonder a while! The cold brew was delicious- a nice, dark bean and they had lots of alternative milks and flavors. A few vegan/gluten free pastries too. The service was the highlight though, everyone was so positive and engaging! So happy I stopped in!
