“ Punches way above its weight: charming decor, spacious seating area, excellent small breakfast/sandwich/salad/soup menu, perfect execution of espresso classics. Astonishing for a (non-college) town of 12,500! ”

“ Great fiood, great service - value for money spent. the Chai latte was better than what Starbucks has ”

“ I often come here after visiting the library or just walking around downtown Effingham. Joe Sippers is a quaint little coffee shop and it has different seating arrangements inside such as tall tables, couches, and regular tables. There are quite a few outlets and wifi here, so if you need to be in the presence of people whilst you work this is the place. There are two rooms, the front room is a lot busier than the back. I like to think that the back room is kind of like a work room and the front room is more or so for visiting. It's busy mid day and then it starts dying down around two to three o'clock in the afternoon. The coffee and food isn't very pricey for how much you can get. In my humble opinion this place is a lot better than Starbucks in many ways. They have daily soups and seasonal drinks! They also have desserts and they sell little containers of their black bean salsa which is some of the best i've had by far! The staff is amazing and so kind not only that but really quick with your order even when it's super busy. This place for sure gets a ten out of ten by this super opinionated person! ”

“ Go to place for great coffee, smoothies, and cafe food. Breakfast on this trip. Frittata egg bites were the perfect side to our wraps. Huevos ranchero for me, bacon breakfast wrap for my wife. Added a fruit cup for good measure. She had a strawberry smoothie and I enjoyed a bottomless cup of Highlander Grog coffee, so much so I bought a bag of beans for home. Service was great even though they're really busy. Behind the counter was a very in unison team pushing out drinks and food quickly and with a smile. Place is always clean and ready for everyone. Ambiance is exactly what a coffee shop should be. Ever changing local art on the wall is also something to check out in each visit. If you come, plan on staying a while. It's the kind of place you want to hang out in. You won't be disappointed. ”

“ First time coming here, I haven't been to Effingham in years and this place was a real great time that my wife selected. Overall it has a great selection of food, drinks and vegan options. If you like anything on the walls (mainly the artwork) it's all for sale! Staff here was friendly and sweet. We didn't even know about the coffee shop connected to it until we left. My turkey club sandwich was really good as well as my green apple smoothie. Definitely worth stopping in. ”

“ I've been coming for years, since they opened. It's always great food and amazing staff. It's a hometown favorite that we always make time for. ”

“ Was traveling from St Louis to Cincy. Found this place on google maps and was not disappointed. If you were a coffee connoisseur, this is your place! #coffeewithjd LinkedIn ”

“ Great avocado bagel and tea! Roast their own beans and chill vibe. Highly recommended ”

“ Very clever name friendly atmosphere Coffee and Tea recipes unique and baristas were helpful and full of smiles ”

“ I was passing through Effingham and I needed some effing coffee, so I stopped at Joe Sippers Cafe. It was a great decision! The Americano that I ordered was smooth, and stayed smooth even as it cooled down, which can be a challenge for some coffees. While I was there, I also ordered a Huevos Rancheros breakfast burrito. You can't ask me what I think about breakfast burritos because I have very high standards, so my burrito gauge is skewed. But I wanted a burrito because I needed something to eat that I could hold in one hand while driving. Good news: You can hold the burrito in your hand while driving! The place itself is cozy and comfortable with many tables, and even a separate, more secluded room with even more tables. There are also couches and artwork on the wall, and a shelf with books to read while you're there. There's a parking lot in the back with several spaces, and parking on the street too. ”
