Your Coffee Cup Makes a Statement.

The paper coffee cup you carry isn’t just a vessel – it’s a statement. In a world of logo-splashed sleeves and minimalist café branding, your cup quietly reveals where you belong in the coffee-drinking tribe. A plain white cup suggests you’re a purist who cares more about the roast than the wrapper. A high-design cup from a boutique roaster might mark you as a trend-aware caffeine snob. But then there’s the Anthora – the iconic blue-and-white “We Are Happy To Serve You” cup that screams New York. It’s not just a cup; it’s a cultural artifact, a badge of identity, and a love letter to the city that made it famous.

To drink from an Anthora cup is to participate in a shared nostalgia for old-school diners, Greek-owned coffee carts, and the fast-talking, no-nonsense charm of Manhattan mornings. It tells the world you’re not just grabbing a coffee, you’re embracing a legacy. Immortalized in movies and museum collections alike, the Anthora carries with it a sense of place, history, and working-class pride. So, the next time you sip from that iconic to-go cup, know this: you’re not just having coffee. You’re having a moment.

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.
