Keep Coffee Weird.

Some cities keep things weird on purpose. New York never had to try. The Anthora paper coffee cup—blue, white, and Greek all over—has been fueling this city’s beautiful eccentricities for nearly 60 years. It’s the cup that held comedians’ late-night punchlines, cabbies’ midnight jolts, editors’ deadline sprints, and countless acts of urban magic. In a world of sleek stainless tumblers and algorithm-approved beverages, the Anthora remains wonderfully imperfect: a little gritty, a little nostalgic, unmistakably New York. To hold one is to feel the pulse of the corner bodega, the clang of the subway grate, and the glorious, caffeinated chaos of a city that refuses to be anything but itself.

So let’s keep coffee weird. Let’s celebrate the oddball rituals, the mismatched diner counters, and the caffeine-fueled creativity that make New Yorkers who they are—even when they’re half a continent away. The Anthora is more than a cup; it’s a tiny time machine, a souvenir of the city’s soul, and a reminder that coffee doesn’t need to be polished to be perfect. Whether you choose a sleeve of the genuine original paper cups or the iconic ceramic edition, you’re not just drinking coffee—you’re carrying on a tradition as delightfully weird and fiercely authentic as New York itself.

Dedicated to preserving the legacy of the iconic Anthora coffee cup – a true symbol of New York City’s street culture, corner delis, and daily rituals – NY Coffee Cup celebrates its enduring design, cultural significance, and place in coffee history, both in NYC and beyond.
