Description

Sipping Turtle Cafe pairs excellent teas (notably matcha) and quality coffee with fresh pastries, breakfast bowls and croissant sandwiches in a calm, plant-filled space perfect for studying or lazy weekends. Regulars praise desserts, the drink variety and friendly vibe, but experiences are mixed: understaffing, uneven coffee quality (cold brew called out) and occasional service or safety lapses have led to long waits. A charming local spot worth visiting, with the caveat that service and consistency can fluctuate.

Two incompetent children working here. There was 10 patrons in the coffee shop and not one of them had a coffee in their hand. Whole staff should be fired immediately. Waited over 25 minutes for a coffee.

My daughter took me to Sipping Turtle for the first time. When we came in, the employee took time to acknowledge us. After they took our order, they did not say it would take 10 minutes to prepare a Chai and a Latte. When our order was ready the Chai cup was not complete, and it was warm, not as hot as it should have been. The flavor was ok. I do not recommend this place. Service needs to be faster and the drinks at the right temperature.

Loved the vibe, the staff and the coffee. Order the dolgano whipped coffee, it's really good.

I absolutely loved this café and the variety offered on their menu. I always enjoy starting my Saturdays or Sundays with a big latte and a bowl of rice porridge (Congee). Based on the menu description, I anticipated a bit more from the pork congee than just three chunks of bacon and a few pieces of scallion, but overall, I was still satisfied with my meal.
