Best cup ever feeling. I need to come back for sure. Very sophisticated environment. Thanks.

We came here 2x on a 4 day trip to Anchorage. Great spot to get caffeine + wifi fix . The affogato, italian soda, macchiato and cappuccino were great. Awesome place to hang out for a while and relax read more

A coffee shop that is more sit in and wait is different. When I think about coffee, I think drive through. Only after experiencing the drive through do I think about it as a place to hang out. This coffee shop is a friendly and clean environment to hang out and spend some time. read more

Best cup in Anchorage. Modern and just the right amount of hipster attitude inside. No tacos, but the Breakfast Burrito is AMAZING! Reindeer Sausage, red peppers, eggs. -best Soy cappuccino we've ever had -best black coffee since leaving LA -best breakfast burrito in Alaska -espresso like Intelligentsia Good on you Anchorage. Good on you. read more

I spent every morning of my 4 days in Anchorage in Black Cup. I was in AK on a business trip and lived starting my day with great coffee, fresh muffins, super friendly baristas and a whole bunch of locals. Great vibe read more

This is definitely my favorite coffee shop. Moving here from cali, ive always tried looking for a place with a similar vibe and this is def one of them. It's a good place to do some work and of course have a nice cup of coffee as well. In addition to that, their customer service is also great so what more can you ask for haha. Will definitely come back. read more

Tried my old favorite coffee house, the former CafeDelMundo - now the black cup. Not the same. Where CafeDelMundo had a warm & friendly ambiance, Black Cup is cold and the service is horrible. Tried it about a year ago. I was one of the few in the cafe. Service staff was so busy texting and chatting among themselves, it was well over 45 minutes to receive my cup of hot water for tea. This was after several requests. I called the Kaladi Brothers Office to advise of the poor service. Maybe the staff was not trained properly, bad day, whatever. As a business owner, I would want to know if my staff performed poorly. Met a friend st the cafe today. It was moderately busy fir mid afternoon. Again, rude staff. No napkins. After three requests, they finally put the napkins out in the service table. Rude service. Too expensive and sub par product. Sorry - will not be back again. Sure miss the warm and friendly Cafe Del Mundo :( read more

Great coffee and cool atmosphere but the service is sooooooo very slow. The place wasn't even busy and I had to wait 15 minutes and inquire twice about a cup of tea I ordered. The staff are apathetic and aloof. I wish I hadn't left that $2 tip. Lesson learned. read more

I like this location and try to come here for coffee with the pop. It has reinvented itself, but still serves the same great coffee with the same great service. It is decidedly a study hall/wannabe blogger hangout and seating is limited for people who want to chat over a hot cup of brew. It's fine, but I tend to get here earlier if I can. What this place should do is have a bar type area with power so that the oners can surf the net to their hearts desire and leave table tops for multiples of one. Eh, still will come because the coffee is good and so is the service and atmosphere. read more

My husband is freakishly high maintenance when it comes to coffee. I'm talking, he hand grinds his single origin, direct-trade coffee before making his own pour over every friggin morning. He even worries about the temperature of the water. While I'm tempted to roll my eyes at the amount of care he puts into every cup, I understand that it truly makes for a better coffee beverage. It's nice to know there's a local coffee joint that puts as much attention into their drink creations. He's gotten several pour-overs from Black Cup and left ecstatic. And they've made me the best skim mocha I've had since moving to Alaska. Will definitely come again! :) read more

If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Come enjoy a nice cup of coffee accompanied by a scratching blaring record player on the fritz and the employees friends. This place was slammed before the remodel. Now it caters to a niche market- hipsters. Btw- The barista told me to go to Starbucks after I asked for pumpkin syrup. Poor salesmanship. read more

I wish I could give ZERO stars! Came here excited to try a new coffee place! It's a nice coffee shop but had the WORST coffee EVER!!! Ordered 2 coconut milk lattes and they were ice cold , tasted old.... when I go tell the barista my coffee is cold he asked me if I wanted my coffee back in the MICROWAVE ?? Wow ... so that's what I had in the first place ! Microwaved coffee... DISGUSTING ! didn't even ask if I wanted a fresh coffee .... telling me he can't steam coconut milk .... whatever ... horrible customer service ... terrible coffee.....NEVER GOING BACK! read more

I'm knocking them down a star. Holy Shenanigans....$4.35 for a 12 ounce latte?? To put things in perspective, my normal coffee hut charges $3.75 for a 20 OUNCE latte & they use Kaladi as well. I guess someone needs to pay for their remodel. ;( read more

Great Sunday morning lazy vibe. Friendly staff helpful, answering our questions thoroughly. Tasty nonfat latte, Dino old fashioned donuts sold here...such an inviting atmosphere. Love this place! read more

Good coffee. Fast with options. Normal brew. Normal espresso. But there's the pour over bar. And the steam punk vacuum press. Which are both a bit more specialized. And equate to a very good cuppa!!! Very nice addition/ find here .. The decor. Is modern. And welcome. read more

5 Stars for the Friendly Staff, decor and the ambience of this place. 3 for the cappuccino itself. I can't say it was bad ( Since I am not a coffee drinker) and I can't say it was delicious either. It tasted a little thinner than the cappuccinos I have had. Pricing is good, definitely worth a try. read more

What a great coffee shop. The service was excellent and they served up a phenomenal cup of artisan coffee. I'll definitely be returning to this location for coffee when I'm in town. They have any coffee brewing techniques that are at the Forefront of Technology which makes this place really special. The inside Decor is also excellent and makes you feel welcome. read more

Black Cup - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

Good coffee! I got a Steampunk extraction and the single-origin Guatemala was really tasty. Cool interior with lots of seating and wifi. Has a black & white decor with exposed ceiling, kind of a NYC feel to the style. Friendly staff. read more

I came for a second visit and tried some pour over...black. It was much better tasting than the latte I'd had on a previous visit. There were three choices, all of which were promising but the Colombian option had some more balanced promises. It was definitely good enough to drink black, which is not something I find often. I sat at the bar and at times watched the baristas doing the pour overs and they seemed to know what they were doing with it. The cup was pleasant to drink from. read more

Just ok. Ordered a cold brew at 8 a.m. and they weren't sure if they had any so my crew held up the line while they checked... downstairs?? I requested a "pump" of caramel and it was wayyyy to sweet. I think the cold brew would have been good if I could taste it through the cloying sweet syrup they use. I guess I will own that I asked for it. Perhaps I'll give it another try and drink it black. read more

I really love what they've done with this place. It has a very calm & trendy vibe to it. The staff is really friendly & humble. If you're looking to get a good cup of coffee or hot chocolate, this is a great place to meet. read more

A really great coffee shop in a state where coffee is generally above par. Close to the airport, easily accessible, this puts the "specialty" in specialty coffee. The drinks are superbly prepared and their espresso blend is great - nice and strong but not bitter or too strong. Their muffins are moist and delicious and the atmosphere quite relaxed. It is a favourite place for people to set down for a while drink and get some work or study done. Top notch. read more

I am not a coffee shop aficionado by any stretch of the imagination. I don't drink coffee at all in fact, but I do enjoy a good cup of tea and a nice atmosphere, and Black Cup has provided both of those. This is a spot that my wife and I have found ourselves at a few times when waiting for the kids' various practices to end or parties at a nearby rodent themed arcade to finish. The location is pretty handy. read more

This exasperates me no end: young "students" taking up most available seating space with their laptops drinking bottled water (they don't sell bottled water). I hope they are able to remain in business. It is my favorite coffee shop read more

Get the steam punk coffee. Nuff said. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, good service. read more

Nicely decorated, spacious coffee shop with a good amount of seating, decent chai, and decent internet. Came here on a Sunday morning and there were quite a few people studying, but I managed to snag a table to myself. Looked like they had a good selection of pastries and bagels, too. read more

Black Cup - 8 oz chai - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

One the best coffee shops in town, in both coffee and experiences. Atmosphere is super cool. I really enjoyed it and it's the only place I will ever get coffee while I am in anchorage. read more

A really cool place but I struggled getting past all the dust. On the light fixtures (above my coffee), on the displays, on the bookshelf, on the window sills, in the corners read more

Tried this coffee shop out for the first time and it will be my last. The guy taking my order was not unfriendly but I wouldn't call him friendly either, just there doing his job. There was such a crowd around the front counter that I couldn't get to the other end without squeezing through. And the crowd didn't appear to be waiting on any order, they were just socializing. The barista was more interested in visiting then delivering my order. I finally excused my way to the other end of the counter to find a cup of coffee sitting there. I asked if it was my 16 oz mocha and the barista replied, "it's A 16oz mocha". After putting my own lid on the cup (I had asked for it to go), I took the coffee and left. It was luke warm at best. They get one star because it was a 16oz mocha and as taste goes, not that bad. read more

Delicious pour over and hot chocolate for my friend. Friendly and efficient service on every front. I wish I had this coffee shop back in LA!!! read more

Best coffee in Alaska. We always come here every time we're in town. Great atmosphere. Reminds me of the coffee shops back home in California. Clean and relaxing place to go. read more

This sweet cafe is perfect! Their coffee is amazing! And their staff are super friendly. There's a great selection of coffee and teas to choose from as well as pastries. They also have quite a bit of sitting area available for those who want to pull out their laptop and get to work! I'd definitely go back again! I just wish I lived closer to Anchorage so I could grab a coffee everyday! read more

The coffee is pretty good and this spot seems popular. It's sometimes hard to find a good spot to sit. It had an awkward cafeteria vibe around the coffee bar. The floor seemed dirty. Overall, I'm happy, but I likely won't go much because it's hard to find a seat. read more

Great raspberry Italian soda and affogato. Free WiFi ,cute decor, clean restrooms and friendly staff

Great atmosphere! The sweetest employees! Had an excellent chai latte here. I think this might be my favorite coffee shop in Anchorage!

"Pro-level" coffeeshop for when those chain coffee shops just won't do. Plus, they're open late.

I do not give out one-star reviews on yelp however I feel that this is something that needs to be addressed. The hygiene is one star quality ONLY towards the main lobby and bathrooms. This does NOT reflect the coffee bar, quality of coffee, and friendly top notch baristas. This place is amazing for studying however my friend spilled a drink other day. We were trying to clean it up from the floor and immediately noticed that the floor is filthy. It looks like it haven't been mopped for days. I plan to visit again in weeks and hopefully will be able to update this review to 5 deserving stars. Your coffee and atmosphere is the best in town. read more

Not a bad spot for wi fi or to get away from your home in cold months. Coffee wasn't bad. I enjoyed their house roasts and apple cider. It seems to be quite popular here, lots of people. Like to get to-go and take a drive. Staff are usually pretty helpful. read more
