At Sip & Savor, coffee is more than just a drink—it’s an experience, a connection, and a movement. Founded by visionary entrepreneur Trez V. Pugh III, their mission is to pour into the hearts and spirits of communities by curating a proprietary blend of inspiration and education for their team and a home away from home for our community.
With five thriving locations in Chicago and a rapidly growing online presence, we’re bringing the Sip & Savor experience to coffee lovers across the nation. Whether you’re stopping by one of our vibrant coffeehouses or ordering our premium fair-trade coffee and exclusive merch online, every purchase supports a brand deeply rooted in excellence, culture, and community.
Meet the Man Behind the Vision: Trez V. Pugh III
Trez V. Pugh III is a trailblazer, community leader, and champion of Black excellence. His journey from U.S. Marine Corps veteran to federal agent to real estate investor ultimately led him to his true passion: building a coffeehouse brand that uplifts communities and creates opportunities for others.
In 2005, Trez founded Sip & Savor with one goal in mind—to create more than just a coffee shop. He envisioned a space that would bring people together, showcase culture, community, and entrepreneurship, and provide a platform for connection, creativity, and commerce.
Today, that vision is a reality, and Sip & Savor is expanding beyond Chicago to serve coffee lovers nationwide.
