Original “Anthora” Coffee-to-Go Cups (100 Paper Cups and Lids)

One and Only Genuine Original “Anthora” Paper Cups—Accept No Imitations.  

These are not “inspired” by the Anthora cup. These are the Anthora cups—the originals. Ten ounces. Blue and white. Greek key marching confidently around the rim. Unchanged for 60 years, when a good cup of coffee came with no lid, no foam, and no nonsense.  Many have tried to borrow the look. Some have come close. None have succeeded. Because authenticity, like New York itself, cannot be imitated. The weight feels right in the hand. The proportions are perfect. The design is eternal. Pour in coffee. Or tea. Or something stronger, after hours.  P.S. Prepare yourself. Questions will be asked.  “Where did you find those?”

You know this cup. You’ve clutched it on a wind-tunnel corner at Lexington and 53rd. You’ve warmed your hands on it at dawn, your collar turned up, the city already barking. The 10-ounce New York coffee cup—street-tough, no-nonsense, unapologetically disposable—is as much a part of the metropolis as steam grates and yellow cabs. It doesn’t whisper. It declares.

Here you get the real thing. One hundred authentic New York coffee cups with dome lids, packed in factory-sealed plastic sleeves. Emblazoned in unmistakable Greek-style lettering: WE ARE HAPPY TO SERVE YOU. Introduced in 1963, it became the unofficial chalice of the city—so iconic it landed on the cover of the Manhattan phone book, earned a permanent place at MoMA, and stole scenes in television and film whenever a director needed shorthand for New York, right now.

A conversation starter. A wink to insiders. The ultimate high-camp gift for coffee drinkers, city dwellers, and displaced New Yorkers everywhere.  Beware of imitations. This is the genuine article—the only cup that truly says New York  .Includes a souvenir postcard recounting the cup’s improbable rise from lunch counter necessity to cultural icon.
