What 360+ diners say about Sipping Turtle Cafe

“If you are looking for a place to work, while in WFH land: Pros: - Fast Wifi - $5 bottomless coffee - Food available for lunch - Ample seating - Many outlets Cons: - Required to leave the door open, so on a hot day wear shorts Happy to support local business and a great little cafe”

Cute and cozy coffee shop. Almost seemed small, but there was ample seating. The lavender matcha latte with a cookie on side really hit the spot on a chilly Sunday. Would 100% go back!

“Simple review- they have the best matcha here.”

Simple review- they have the best matcha here. I particularly love their strawberry matcha with Oat Milk. Find me a better one. Spoiler Alert.. You can’t lol. Cheers

Earl grey bubble tea was solid, the chocolate croissant was great, the hopscotch was decent and the red velvet doughnut was amazing

Neighborhood coffee shop and cafe featuring some standard drink options and a good variety of pastries, bagel sandwiches, and Asian options like bahn mi & steamed buns. Decor was cozy and there are alot of two tops available for couples or working remotely. The food and drinks we got were pretty good. Was nice to see the in house "cups" just being mason jars with metal straws as well. Definitely a place worth stopping in

“Their mango avocado salad is absolutely delightful.”

Their mango avocado salad is absolutely delightful! So refreshing with large chunks of avocados and mangos. The dressing was the perfect amount so it's not smuthering. I would totally order it again. It's so hard to find a fresh, healthy, good quality salad like this these days.

“Nice little gems cafe , the owner and staff are friendly and welcoming .”

Nice little gems cafe , the owner and staff are friendly and welcoming . So far , We had ping blossoms late , ice mocha , rice porridge, cake, muffin egg and bacon , and breakfast tea , etc as we visit the cafe more than twice , as we feel so relaxing! This is our first time vacation in Milwaukee area . We got to know the owner by chance . She gave us delicious 🍪 cookie as a complement. Thank you ! By the way I see they do Thai tea on the menu , if you guys never had it before and want to experience this , then make your own way to this cafe . You won’t regret!!

“My first experience was already great, but my second was more than memorable.”

My first experience was already great, but my second was more than memorable. I had come in to get something for lunch and realized I left my wallet in a shop across the way. I was about to cancel the order, but one of the workers had assured me I could come back and pay later. On top of that, I told them I would be back to grab my wallet and they reserved my seating in the cafe as well. Once I came back my food was ready and I still had seating, and they assured me I could pay after I was done eating. I'm not sure if this happens often or if they just happened to be very nice, but that was one of the most trusting and above and beyond customer service experiences I've ever gotten and I will definitely be back.

The food was really good! I enjoyed the BBQ buns they have and the tea. Customer service is good they greet and smile which is nice and they are patient. Washroom is clean. I will come back the place has a very relaxing atmosphere.
