The coffee cup is accurately named - they never let your cup go dry! Came here for brunch on a Sunday and it was a classic diner menu/experience. I split the veg omelette with a friend and it was more than enough food. Service was fast! read more

An old school diner which is sort of a cross of old and new. There is a cramped look but the place was busy on a weekday morning. There is no wall menu but all I wanted was coffee and perhaps an easy to take pastry. There is a basket filled with cookies of various types. If you are a picky person and not necessarily a baking aficionado there is no label on the goods. Some people need to know what type of nuts may be used..just saying. People entering seem to know each other and chat with the staff so this is a real neighborhood gathering spot. The coffee was standard restaurant brew but it tasted freshly made and was as hot as it should be. The large cookie was crunchy and a great late morning lift to go with the brew. read more

They renovated nicely...everything but the restrooms. They are old and awful...use at your own risk!

The food was excellent and the service was outstanding. The minute I walked in I was asked if I wanted a cup of coffee. I highly recommend the Coffee Cup. read more

I don't know who's keeping this place in business, but it won't be me. First and last time ordering. Cajun breakfast came with raw white flavorless hash browns, egg undercooked with whites so disgustingly runny, and CANNED MUSHROOMS. Burnt side of sausages. Embarassing, really. Who the heck is out there using canned mushrooms thinking that's ok? Wtf. Learn how to cook eggs. I don't need to see runny egg whites. read more

I ordered thru a delivery app and the food was still hot but the quality was not good. the breakfast burrito was huge and all sausage - when I was able to find the eggs they were wet and bland. The waffle was dense and thick and tasted like uncooked batter, it broke into crumbles as I took a bite. Even the apple juice was watery. The fries were the best part, they were hot and crispy but unfortunately bland as well. All together I was pretty disappointed unfortunately. read more

Amazing diner! Once you step into Coffee Cup the ambiance of the diner sucks you back into the 50s. The service is great and the waitress and waiters never let your needs go unserved. The food is outstanding. Everything is reasonably priced and you will need a box before you leave because you get so much food. They have such a diverse menu and I wish I could try every item. I personally love the breakfast burrito because it has so many different flavors and delicious hollandaise sauce. The buttermilk pancakes are nice and fluffy and go great with their maple syrup. I would recommend Coffee Cup to anyone, and will always be on my list of one of the best breakfast diners in the Twin Cities! read more

A great spot for breakfast in St. Paul! The wait staff is friendly, hard-working and attentive. You'll never be out of coffee unless you want to be! (The downside is that the coffee is very weak and has no taste.) The food is very good and portions are large. Seating ranges from booths to tables to counter. It's definitely a local favorite! We have been here a couple times and will be back! read more

Classic old school diner with some updated food options Going in it's a diner. Chrome and Formica, big counter space if you are alone and lots of tables Of course, classic service with coffee cups set at every seat and the staff out with the coffee. Polite and nice staff also Food varies from the classic eggs, hashbowns, sausage, and toast to the more current waffles and chicken I had only 20 minutes so went with the classic eggs toast and sausage. Fast and my eggs were perfect We are looking at homes in the neighborhood and if we do, this will likely be a once a week visit read more

Coffie Cup is one of the best breakfast diners that you will ever eat at great price great quantity and quality of food and amazing people that work there been going there since I was a child and I'm almost 40 years old today. Amazing food. read more

Service was excellent and she was very attentive! Make sure you bring a thin jacket or long sleeve because the AC is very strong inside so it can get really cold! Cinnamon roll is huge! It's as big as a plate but their homemade frosting is not as sweet as your typical cinnamon roll. For me it was great since I don't like it as sweet. Churo waffle smells great but only taste ok. The frosting they drizzle on is the same frosting as the one on the cinnamon roll. French toast was more bland so I wished they would sprinkle a bit more cinnamon. Country fried steak I didn't try but I was told it was great and tasted delicious. read more

This was a great small town diner in the heart of the city. Breakfast and lunch place. There was a ton of food, (GOOD food) and my husband and I could have shared a plate. We didn't though and it was worth it. The service was friendly, and we got to know another couple of guys sitting across the counter from us. Made me remember how it was back in the day at diners. read more

This is the type of dinner I grew up with. The decor has a little touch of the past. The wait staff is amazing. The food portions are very large and taste fantastic. I came here at the recommendation of a Freind and keep coming back when I'm in the area. read more

I decided on some breakfast take out today from the Coffee Cup on Randolph. First time at this location although I've been going to the original on Rice and Arlington my whole life. My grandparents lived a few blocks away and my BFF growing up, her step dad was an investor in the place in the early 80's for a spell, I'm not sure if he's still involved because he's no longer her stepdad. Anyways, the food is so classic "diner." Everything is really good, from the hot turkey, to the pork chop, turkey and Swiss omelette (which for some reason works), a patty melt, liver and onions for those like it, to my favorite, the Greek omelette. The photo doesn't do it justice, it was huge and beautiful! The bag weighed about five pounds. And it's tasty! Just as good as I remember it. The egg fluffy and just the combo of the gyro meat, the Tzatziki sauce and the feta is such a pleasant tartness, I forget how much I love those flavors. I'll be back, there are some new things on the menu! The Greek and veggie burgers, along with eggs Benedict, cream cheese stuffed French toast, and I really want to try the Cajun breakfast! Check it out! Made with love for the neighborhood read more

The food was super good, and even though they are super busy they got the food out in a good amount of time. The place was also very clean which is always good with a restaurant. read more

This place offers a standard diner menu, enormous portions, and very reasonable prices. The service was quick, the restaurant itself is very clean and has plenty of seating. My coffee was perpetually full. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, which were delicious. And my kids totally demolished their giant waffles. Minor note: The kids menu pricing needs to be updated on their menus, and the teen cashiers just kinda shrugged when I mentioned the discrepancy between menu and bill. read more

Huge portions, fast service & delicious food! Took my little brother here for some breakfast. We shared the Eggs Bennie & Everything Omelette. Also Shared a pancake. Had a lot of leftovers. Almost 1/2 of each of our meals left. Would definitely go here again. read more

First time here and had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was nice, our server was a sweetheart. Our coffee mugs were never allowed to empty, always topped off. We shared the chicken & waffles with a side of hash browns. The chipotle syrup that accompanied the chicken & waffles was really nice. The hash browns were a huge portion. Huge. Portion. Like a meal in itself if you love hash browns. I recommend this cute neighborhood cafe/diner to anyone, even those who have to drive nearly 30 min to get there, like I do. read more

I brought my son and grandson in for breakfast at about 1030 this morning. It was very busy and we got seated, but it took a long time to get water and coffee. We all placed orders and when my came my food was lukewarm. I asked my son if his food was hot and his was lukewarm also but he is not one to complain. I ordered a Cajun breakfast and when the waitress came over, I told her that my food was not hot at all and her response was oh my gosh the cooks must not be heating the sauces long enough. Well that really was not what I wanted to hear, but I don't ever send food back because I think it's gonna be worse when I get it back out so I took another bite, but it was so cold that I just can't do cold eggs. My grandson asked if he could have a couple bites of it to taste it and I gave it to him to try. My breakfast was $17 so what the waitress did to compensate me was to take my grandson's eight dollar French toast dish off the bill and still me for mine. I am not impressed at all and think I would go back there again. read more

Everything on the menu is great. I have been there many times and my only complaint is the cagin breakfast never has any cagin spice in the hash brown, only a small dash of something red on one egg. There are 5 restaurants within 3 miles of the Coffee Cup that put cagin spice in their meal so you can taste the spice. The servers are friendly and give great service. And a very clean restaurant. read more

Coffee Cup is a wonderful "mom & pop" breakfast/lunch restaurant, located on the corner of Randolph and Hamline. Seating ranges from booths to tables to quite a few padded stools ringing the counter. The servers are very attentive and you'll find your coffee cup is never empty! The decor includes dozens and dozens of various signs with memes with hilarious sayings - exactly what you'd expect to find in a place like this. On this particular visit, our three orders included the Everything Omelette, the Denver Omelette, and Strawberry and Cream Cheese Belgian Waffle. This was the second or third time I've ordered the Everything Omelette. It's quite large and stuffed with bacon, sausage, peppers,onions and a side of crispy hash browns and an English muffin. The Denver omelette was equally large and also served with hash browns and a side of toast. My wife's Waffles was crowned with whipped cream and she rated it top notch. I just made me pass that there is a parking lot adjacent to the building and on this particular occasion we found it easy to spot an empty space but other times when it's busy, street parking would be the only other option. We have never been disappointed in the quality of our food, the speed of service, or the value that we paid for our meals when we've been here. Coffee Cup is one of our top choices, especially for breakfast! read more

Service is always fast and staff are friendly! I always get a sandwich to go for my lunch and the food is great.

The only restaurant I've visited 2x's in a week since moving into the neighborhood. Breakfast is the Coffee Cup's sweet spot. A huge choice of offerings and something to fit anyone's tastes. The classic breakfast of eggs, potatoes, and side of breakfast meat is available in so many iterations that it could make your head spin. They also have pancakes, waffles and more. The portions are generous, service is friendly, and the food is very tasty. Expect it to be busy, especially at breakfast but know that food arrives promptly and dirty tables are turned quickly. I also ordered a takeout Reuben from the Coffee Cup and it was delicious. I had to eat half of it at their outside tables because I was so excited to give it a try. One bonus, the person taking my order let me know of the variety of sides available with the sandwich and when she said hash browns I was thrilled. All in all, the Reuben was a great example of the sandwich in a neighborhood with the bar set very high by Cecils. read more

This was a good spot to check out breakfast. We had a ranch meal and the turkey and swiss omelet. The portions are huge. The food needed more seasoning, the eggs were overcooked. They had plenty of seating, a seat yourself vibe. I believe there was aomw training going on during our visit which made sense. There is side and street parking. They have two unisex restrooms, a litte outdated but clean. The service was ok. read more

Super cute little diner. The service was super fast and the portions were insanely large. I thought it was very reasonably priced. I always get country fried steak when I see it on the menu so I was stoked to see that here. The flavors didn't knock my socks off and the orange juice was from one of those concentrate machines so it was super sugary. read more

This place used to be great when it was the Randolph griddle. But it went through a remodel which severely decreased the seating. The ambience is very stark and cold. It used to be warm at homey. And the menu got much more expensive. Quality has gone down. Can't recommend anymore. read more

YES!! I have officially found the best turkey club sandwich in the Twin Cities. It is one of my favorite things to order and they got it just right. The order arrived on time and correct through Door Dash. The sandwich had the perfect ratio of fillings to bread and the bread was lightly toasted. So tasty and I will absolutely be ordering it again. The onion rings on the side were good too! Fresh and hand battered and portion size was huge. read more

Dipped into St. Paul from LA to see my folks. Walked in to the joint, greeted quickly, sat down, ordered, food came quick. Lots of food. The waitress was attentive. I forgot to take pictures of the before and of the menu. Will be back. I love this place. Thanks Kuz read more
