How it works

Coffee discovery, simplified

No chains, no noise. Just good places and the people who love them.

Find nearby shops

Browse independent coffee shops on an interactive map, pick how far you want to look, and zoom out to see more.

Rate what matters

Score the coffee and the atmosphere separately, so you know whether a place is great for a flat white or for a long study session.

See what's new nearby

The social tab shows the latest ratings from people around you, so your next favorite spot finds you.

Ratings

Two scores, one honest picture

We never blend them into a single star average. A shop can have great coffee and so-so seating, and you should be able to see both.

Coffee
4.6 / 5

How good the drinks are.

Atmosphere
4.1 / 5

How the place feels to sit in.

Example scores shown for illustration.

The team

Born in Birmingham, Alabama

sippa grew out of One Sip Coffee Reviews, a project by three friends from Birmingham who got tired of generic ratings and wanted something better for people who love local coffee.
