Sugar and Sip

725 W 5th St, Charlotte, NC

Crema's Take

Tucked in Uptown Charlotte, Sugar and Sip strikes that perfect balance between a creative specialty coffee destination and a genuine third space, where baristas like James and JP remember your name and craft drinks like raspberry cheesecake matcha and sweet potato lattes with real care. The vibe here feels intentionally chill—there's plenty of seating, games and books scattered around for taking a breather from screens, and a playlist that complements rather than overwhelms the relaxed atmosphere. Whether you're settling in for a meeting, a work session with solid wifi, or just escaping the bustle with a pastry and a signature drink, this neighborhood gem delivers both quality coffee and the kind of unhurried hospitality that keeps people coming back.

First time visiting Sugar & Sip in Uptown and I had a great experience. James, the barista, was excellent. I ordered a raspberry cheesecake matcha, a turkey sausage and egg sandwich, and later an iced chai latte with caramel cold foam. Everything was really good. The drinks were flavorful and balanced, and the sandwich was satisfying. I also stayed to work for a few hours and the atmosphere was perfect for that. Definitely coming back.

Nice coffee shop. I got the sweet potato latte. It was delicious. The price was average for the city. Everyone was very friendly.

Great spot! Delicious coffee and the pumpkin muffin was perfect. Tables were clean and the music was cool, just a teeny bit too loud. I will definitely return to try all the other goodies. Good customer service!

This is a cute coffee shop. The atmosphere is very chill, and not loud. There are games and books for you to grab and take a tech break. The service is amazing. JP was very helping with explaining the menu and the different ways we can customize our drinks. I am not in the area often but will visit again.
