Chef’s Kiss! I always take my friends that are visiting Buffalo to Tipico first. Great environment, friendly people and incredible coffee. they also serve booze 🫡

This cute coffee shop is clean, bright, and very unique! The blue counters pair well with the branding, however the highlight is the delicious coffee that is sourced directly from Costa Rica. They are in direct trade with a family in Costa Rica who grows the beans themselves! Staff is very friendly and fast to provide you service. I enjoyed the maple and brown sugar overnight oats, along with one of the many specials, the maple bun latte. Overall I had a great experience and plan to return to Tipico for breakfast and coffee in the future!

GREAT atmosphere, GREAT coffee, GREAT customer service & GREAT food. I love the culture of Tipico. It is relaxing, and the ambiance is perfect. Whether you want to work for a couple of hours, or sit and chat with a friend, this is the place to be!

Cute, and a perfect stop in on a rainy day. I got a hot cup of chai latte to go. It was quick and the people were so pleasant. Will be stopping back in on my next visit into town. Maybe it will be sunny and the patio will be the place to be.

I'm sad I slept on this place for so long. Living in Elmwood Village you get spoiled by all the coffee shop options and I overlooked this one for far too long. Tipico has quickly become one of my fast favorites. Delicious cold brew, nice and spicy chai lattes, and an excellent bagel breakfast sandwich.

I absolutely loved this place! If I lived closer I probably would frequent here weekly just for the atmosphere this place provides alone. Try out their The Pickle Pig sandwich with they're freshly brewed coffee. So good. Relax inside or on their patio. Really you can't go wrong here.

Enjoyed the bacon egg tomato and cheese on an everything bagel. Plus the cold brew coffee. Staff very nice greets you with a smile. Recommend.

Wonderful little coffee shop! I'm in town for the holidays & anytime I travel I'll try to find local coffee. This place was awesome! Easy to order ahead online & food/drinks were ready exactly when they said they would be. Staff was very pleasant & helpful. Tried out the vegetarian breakfast burrito, which was quite delicious. Grabbed a few cans of their snapchilled coffee for the next morning. A little pricey, but they were also really good!! Definitely recommend giving this place a try.

Tipico is a great cafe, but their roasted beans aren't worth buying. Opinions vary on how long beans should degas after being roasted but the stuff on their shelves has been sitting too long. It's been typical to see beans roasted 10 days earlier & sometimes more than 2 weeks. Sadly, if you care about quality beans your best option is not in Buffalo. I get great beans from a roaster in Erie, PA & they arrive via parcel plus mail just 2-3 days after being roasted. Even with shipping the cost is less than Tipico charges for beans that are past their prime. Local bakeries deliver fresh bread to the coop daily -- there's no reason Tipico can't do better. It's a scheduling problem & they could easily solve it by roasting fewer beans at a time & roasting more often. So: 5 stars for the cafe & 3 for the beans.

Maybe the coffee is good but the burritos are mid. For context i got the chorizo breakfast burrito. I like the concept of but i feel like it misses a bit. The burrito i got had an overpowering herb flavor. Also the texture is strange. You have this really crunchy wrap but inside is just a mush. Its a combination of egg, pumpkin, beans, onions, cheese and corn (i think). Idk im not a pro but i wish it had like rice or something with texture. Maybe potatoes or rice? Also its kinda weird to order psychologically because chorizo is an addition to the vegan burrito . I dont know if its by design so that more people try vegan options but ill see that its vegan but idk whats reallly in it and assume its not enough. Feels like i have to go for chorizo

We stumbled across this cafe today for brunch, we ordered a vanilla latte, hot chocolate, breakfast BEC, and breakfast wrap. The latte was good, the hot chocolate tasted like straight milk and was watered down there was no chocolate. The BEC was good, the bagel was soft and fresh. The breakfast wrap was amazing. Our biggest issue was the hot chocolate and the fact that there no seats. Understanding it is a smaller shop, it was very crowded since it was cold outside and some people were forced to sit outside

Sadly, I had a horrific experience here. The guys behind the counter were fine but I got ganged up on from the entire restaurant. I left nearly in tears. There were two people in front of me when I ordered. So I assumed it would be a few minute wait. No problem. But 15 minutes later, having to be at an event and knowing now I’d be late, I asked how long it would still be. He said you are next. Another several minutes go by and I said I had to go as I needed to be somewhere could I get my $10 back and I’d be on my way. I then got people shouting at me to go somewhere else, another person said I should leave because I’m making the other people uncomfortable and as I finally left, someone yells out don’t come back. I’m appalled. This must be some cult gathering. I’m from Toronto, in Buffalo for a wedding. I’m in my 50’s, well dressed and well spoken and typically respected. This was the most appalling experience ever. The people working there should say something to these customers. I’ll certainly never be back. All I did was say I needed to be somewhere and could I get my money back and I’d go without the coffees. A big zero stars for this place
