Cups is such a nice local coffee shop in downtown Clinton and within walking distance of Mississippi College. The shop is inside a renovated older house, which gives it so much more character than your typical coffee shop. There are several different rooms with plenty of places to sit, study, or meet up with friends. It's definitely a popular spot with Mississippi College students, and you'll almost always see students studying or hanging out when you go. Even when it's busy, the different rooms make it feel comfortable instead of crowded. They have a good selection of coffee and drinks, plus fresh baked goods if you want something to go with your coffee. It's a cozy, relaxed place and a great option if you need somewhere to study for a while or just want to sit and enjoy your drink. read more

Right on the corner with outside and inside seating. Street parking and very convenient to Mississippi Christian College. Offering cold brew, lattes, seasonal coffees, scones, muffins and even some handmade scrunchies, jewelry for sale on the shelves. They also have board games to play if you want to sit inside with friends but if you came to study or work, you can do that as well. It's very quiet inside. I ordered the flapjack latte with oatmilk and it was very strong. I couldn't drink it all. Would return to try something different and enjoy the scenery. read more

Love going to Cups if I need a caffeine boost. Coffee quality is a little inconsistent because every time they have different staff. But overall is good place to hangout and either work on your laptop or study. You can park at the church across the street read more

Cups - Cold brew with cream - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Clinton, Mississippi

Cool coffee shop just one the edge of MC's campus. Good place to kill time, study or grab a cup of coffee.

Cups is my go-to place in Clinton for a caffeine kick. The lavender vanilla latte made with oat milk is my absolute favorite. Right now, I'm hooked on the lattes, but I look forward to trying the teas. Every time I go there are fresh goodies baking, filling the atmosphere with a pleasant aroma. Baristas are friendly and the place itself has its own personality. read more

I stopped at cups while on a road trip, I was looking for hot cocoa and a cute little place to take a break, saw that this place had great reviews so decided to stop. Cups definitely gets points for atmosphere, cuteness, and location. However, the hot chocolate and coffee that we got were both below average. It is definitely not a specialty coffee house or anything fancy. Just college students making coffee and hot cocoa. Both my husband and I were completely underwhelmed. If I lived in town I definitely wouldn't be returning, literally my husband's coffee was pumped out of a carafe... read more

Very friendly and upbeat college minded coffeehouse, the vibe is a bit bohemian with artists works displaying on walls, door ways and the washroom but usually quiet place to relax or chat. The barista I have encountered on Sunday are quite good making suggestions if you tell them what you like! read more

Great little quaint home-like coffee spot especially in a college town. Inside outside lots of seating/tables. Cool place for small groups to meet. Baristas are very friendly and knowledgeable. Not a lot of variety as far as for breakfast foods, but the oatmeal and muffins hit the spot. read more

Whooo hoooo! Late night espresso fix! Cups stays open til 10 pm on a Saturday night! A treat for this dateless single newcomer to Clinton. Without much to do in this small town on Saturday night, I turned to Yelp for some excitement. I was pleased to find this cute coffee house. Though I got my tasty "brunette" latte and chocolate cake to go, I noticed that there is plenty seating for quiet work time and wifi. I'll go back to hang out. Almond milk is available for those of us whom lactose isn't a friend. There are lots of drink choices to try. #yaycoffee read more

Cups - Yay late night coffee! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Clinton, Mississippi

I love Cups coffee! It's absolutely wonderful! The baristas here are also great! I even pay in cash here just so I have change to put into the tip jar! The atmosphere is adorable -old house tuned coffee shop. What's not to love about this place? ... The price of specialty coffee. But first everything I love about Cups! Going to Cups in the Clinton location is a right of passage if you attend Mississippi College. Everyone knows about the place. Everyone has had at least one "cup". The establishment is tre adorable! Everything here is so eclectic from the furniture to the decor. Each month they even seem to have a theme to their tip jar! I go here to study and get work done at least once a week. It's such a quaint establishment and the campus nearby wouldn't be the same without it! You can even order food here! The chicken salad sandwich is wonderful! They make their own bread fresh everyday, and it's sour dough! YUMMY! But the prices! The prices here are equivalent to that of Starbucks! Yes, it's "specialty" and "local" so I'm willing to pay for it once a week. Yes, they have a loyalty card that kicks back 10% to you. Yes, the customer service is good. However, this is a college town. Students do not have $5 everyday for coffee. Yes, I know it is the blondies and brunettes that will cost a little extra, but this is a college town there are places to get free regular coffee everywhere (i.e. the Healthplex, the apartment complexes, the list goes on). Also, the food is good but is slightly over priced. I want to give Cups a five star rating but they either need to jazz up the decor as there are some cracks in the walls or lower the prices a little. I'm a regular and love Cups, and believe this is one of the places that makes Clinton shine! :D read more

Best coffee around, great friendly service Really enjoyed my visit. Yes, I shall return! read more

I love the coffee and atmosphere! i had the King Cake coffee efote mardi gras and it was amazing!

What a great little hidden gem! Great coffee, excellent service, and a cool hipster vibe all combine to give this place a uniquely local flavor! I had an iced Ethiopian pour-over, while my son had an iced breve. Both great! read more

Great college atmosphere and good coffee. We prefer to sit on the porch. And the app makes me write more words than are needed.

All Cups are great. Baristas are always helpful and knowledgeable about coffees especially for people who are not aficionados like myself. And they make them to your liking and give good suggestions as well. Never a miss. read more

Highly recommend and my go-to for a local coffee date. Service is always pleasant and friendly!

The Baristas are always so nice! Today one of them let me try a Raspberry White chocolate scone for free. It was absolute amazing with my delicious coffee and made my morning. read more

My experience at Cups is what you expect from a local coffee shop in a small town. When you are craving a hot drink, please do not look anywhere else! I grabbed a latte and they put it in a mug and finished it with an artistic tree, and yes, it was magnificent. The atmosphere is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are studying, chilling, or catching up with a friend. This is the place for you. The shop is set up in an old home, so there are different rooms set up with different types of seating. The prices aren't terrible which is another plus! Clinton, MS is small but Cups is a definite place to check out if you're in the area. read more

Cups has a warm and welcoming environment. I enjoyed the peaceful southern vibe the coffee shop gives. My latte was amazing and served with kindness and a smile. Also a great place to study or do some work! read more

I'm not a coffee drinker but on the other hand I'm always here cause my wife absolutely loves the coffee from here.

Great coffee, great service, nice atmosphere. What else can I say? My coffee preference in the area.

Love Cups!! I've never ordered something I didn't like. The coffee is great, but so are other drinks like the teas, spritzers, and cream sodas! Plus you can get some cafe snacks; not to mention that the selection of local coffee, honey, and more is exceptional! read more

This is a daily stop for me. They have great coffee & atmosphere!

Great coffee! I love the drip coffee. Nice place to sit inside. Sometimes the music choices are , but just pop in headphones. I wish they stayed open later than 7 pm, but sometimes I want coffee at 8 or 9 pm. read more

Great coffee, great baristas, & great interior designs. Makes you feel at home & at peace. Great place to take photos for social media while drinking a delicious cup of coffee to your liking. My favorite place in Clinton!! read more

As an MC graduate student I'm at cups at least 1-2 times a week. I love how they always have new coffee flavors, but I have to say their teas are my favorite products! Just had their strawberry and kiwi black tea and it was so refreshing read more

Cups - a sign that says forget it with espresso ice cubes - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Clinton, Mississippi

Cups is an institution in Jackson since at least the 90s and never disappoints. They have a wide variety of drinks and coffee to purchase for home. I wish the quarters location still served lunch. read more

Such an adorable coffee shop! I got the sugar-free blonde latte and it was delicious! The atmosphere is super chill and has that college study vibe with multiple rooms to study/surf the web! They sell their beans which come in a variety of flavors (I bought the cream brûlée!!) They also offer a variety of herbal teas! read more

This is the place to go when you want coffee. I go here almost every day! To be honest, I probably spend more here (on coffee) than I do at Mississippi College (on tuition). Coffee is love, coffee is life. read more

Pretty good! The coffee is always good quality, and they have a large selection of coffee and additives to choose from. The small house that Cups resides in is cozy and decorated with the art of local artists. It also smells of coffee! The outside sitting area is also a very nice place to sit, enjoy your coffee and finish that term paper or your homework. The coffee can sometimes be a tad pricey, but I'd say overall it is worth it. read more

Cups is one of my favorite places! Excellent coffees, friendly baristas, great weekday hours.

The number one thing I miss about Mississippi is Cups. As a student, I walked to Cups often a few times a week. It really caters to the students as well as the Clinton community. The staff was always warm, friendly, and genuine. Pros: student medium coffee for $1.41; flavored coffee of the day; great staff, pretty and cozy place to relax. Great for Bible studies and light reading. Cons: the bathroom, the noise level, several specialty drinks are smaller and pricier than Starbucks. read more

Support your local barrista! The kid knows how to pull a shot. Stay with him, ask for a smaller cup for your latte/ cappuccino. Anything other than Starbucks, though they're nearby. But it's set in a town, you have cobblestone streets, and that Southern charm. The bathroom is ok. The house is a little run down, could use some money put into,it, but hey, the product was delviered well. read more

I'm quite a fan of Cups because they have some good drinks, food and coffee. It's a great place to study when there's not random meetings there with loud people. When I say some good drinks it's because not all drinks here are created equally. I've tried the London fog and some of the Cups "specialties". The London fog is sweet and mostly foam. I love foam but this drink does nothing for me, and was a waste of money. Now onto the specialties, I have tried most of them and I have nothing stellar to say. They all mostly taste the same and are some version of chocolate, caramel syrup and coffee/latte mixture. It's nothing great. With that said, I have quite a few friends who quite like their specials so maybe I'm just biased. Foodwise, I liked Cups. I'm a big fan of their "sticky" homemade moist bread. The texture is something to get used to but it's quite addicting. I usually got peanut butter and jelly and would mix it up by getting the chicken salad. I have noticed who makes your sandwich can be generous or not on portions, haha. So watch out! Coffee wise, I'm not a fan of the blueberry flavor. All the others are quite delicious, especially the creme brulee. Quite good. They also have a student size, so students don't forget to save some money! My favorite drink here is probably the chai latte. I get iced or hot and either way it's good. It's a little sweet, but hey it's addicting. Overall Cups is a nice place to spend time with friends and have a good coffee. Also, they do serve their drinks in modest styrofoam "Cups" branded cups. What a tongue twister. So if you're against waste or can't stand the taste, you can ask them to make your drink in the house mugs. You have to return it though. ;-) Or you can buy some, they have some really nice mugs and other coffee/tea related items for sale. read more

Pretty good coffee, lots of nooks and rooms to hide away from crowds and a well appointed study room make this a great little college-town coffee shop. Trivia night on Thursdays makes for a fun evening. The coffee is good and getting better. I stop in when I'm passing through Clinton and need a break. Great place to get a cup of coffee and relax for a bit. read more

Coffee is ALWAYS amazing, very little wait time, free wifi, and you can get coffee beans there to make at home. Absolutely love.

Stopped on my way to monroe to check out this local java shop. I'll gladly go a mile farther to avoid Starbucks. This is the cutest little spot and obviously where the college kids go to study. My frozen movie was delicious and bought a bag of loose tea that smells amazing. Such an eclectic spot and staff is super friendly. They offer pastries and sandwiches too. I'll remember this spot next time I head east on I20! read more
