    This is a breakfast hot spot for sure.... We were there on a Friday morning for breakfast and had about a 15 min wait. We were in town for baseball and staying across the street. " Lucky us !! Breakfast was amazing ! I was looking for a petite or senior menu but only saw a limited kids menu. Bummer as I don't ever eat a full meal. I went ahead and ordered the build your own omelette. It was delish and the salsa they brought me was one do the best !! Hash browns were scrumptious too! It's a super cute, homey place. The staff were super friendly, welcoming and provided timely service. It's def worth the wait !!

    Heavenly Hog

    We've visited a few times now and are always happy! The decor is super cute and feels very homey, all of the employees are very friendly and the service is always fast. The food is really good as well, this visit I had the heavenly hog and it was wonderful, the sausage links are very large and super flavorful, the bacon was absolutely delicious, and the potatoes were really tasty. My son was extremely happy with his chocolate chip pancakes and sausage, rating them 150 stars! overall this is a really solid breakfast spot that is well worth visiting.

    Breakfast Sandwich and Hashbrowns

    Grandpa brought me here for breakfast this morning as grandma was having bible study at her house. The interior was small but nice with scattered decorations that mostly had a flower theming, clean wooden floors, and flower tale cloth with glass across the top. Lots of white as well with white wall paint and the table cloth being white with the flowers, white lights and lamps too. We were sat down nice and quick then we had our order taken within just a few minutes. It took quite a while for our food to arrive, but the place was packed this morning so I can't hold it against them. I ordered the Breakfast Croissant with Bacon and Hashbrowns. The Hashbrowns were very average. Very plain in taste and texture. The Croissant sandwich pretty good. The bacon was pretty hard and tough, but the croissant was good, the egg was well prepared, and the cheese was good. Overall, not bad. The decor is comfortable and the food is good enough. Not too much to complain about here. Definitely a fine enough place to sit down and enjoy some breakfast.

    This was my first time here and I'm so glad I finally made the trip! I went to the Cup Cafe Too, by the Atlantis, not the one further South It has such a cute cozy atmosphere. I sat at the bar and had very prompt attentive service. I ordered the Tuscan Scramble with their home potatoes, and opted for a biscuit at the recommendation of my server (who I believe was also the owner or manager). Everything was flavorful and good sized portions. I left with half of it to enjoy later. They are only open for breakfast and lunch so be sure to put it on your list of brunch spots. They do have mimosas for those wanting an adult beverage to accompany your meal.

    Pumpkin pancake, yum!

    Located in the Reno town Mall strip mall. Such a cute place, it has a Cozy atmosphere. It was busy for a Tuesday morning but we were seated right away. They have a really good cup of coffee. I got the steak and eggs, it was good. But my favorite thing was their pumpkin pancakes! They were delicious! I will be ordering that again:) Husband tried the Mexican scramble, he cleaned his plate! I was able to sneak a bite in though, it had a fair amount of spice to it. Good flavors. We will be back for sure!

    Bacon Avocado Burger
    Mike S.

    Stopped in for lunch. Service was polite and courteous. I tried the Bacon Avocado Burger. Angus beef, plenty of fresh toppings and cooked to perfection. The bacon alone was amazing! Served with fries that were hot and crispy. I may make this a regular lunch spot in Reno but will try a breakfast option next time!

    This location is closer to my house than the original. Everything was really tasty. I got the jalapeño burger, that wasn't spicy at all. Service was speedy and polite. However the single hot cake came with the check practically. A little delayed with that one... dessert pancake?! Haha still everything was delightful and I'm glad this spot is a bit closer that it used to be for me.

    Bacon avocado Benedict
    Melissa A.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again. The Cup Café offers impeccable service and consistently delivers fresh, delicious food. My personal favorite is the Benedict: perfectly poached eggs and just the right seasoning every time. While I didn't get a cup of coffee this visit, in the past it's always been fresh, and the staff never lets my drink get too low before offering a refill. They now have two locations, and I visited their newest spot at Reno Town Mall. It has a charming mom and pop vibe, complete with teapots with your choice of tea, that perfectly fit the café's aesthetic. A delightful experience overall!

    Kids menu. Pancake and sausage.
    Deejay D.

    When I think about breakfast, I'd like to think about this place. The kid and I decided to have breakfast here yesterday. We haven't been to their new location at the Old Town Mall since they opened. We walked in and the place looked busy. We were seated quickly and given menus. The kid had the pancakes and sausage off the kids menu. I got the chicken fried steak with eggs and hash browns. It also came with a side of biscuits and gravy! My kid loved the pancakes. I thought they smelled good. They smelled like cake. He ate all of the sausage too. My chicken fried steak was seasoned good. There was a good amount of food. I couldn't finish it all but I tried. Even though the place was busy, our waitress Kelly, was on top of it. The service was great. They might need another waiter/ waitress to help her. Seemed like she was the only one working but she had it covered. I can see why they opened a second location. The Cup Cafe has great food and is a good place to eat.

    Garden Benedict but with bacon added.
    Lana S.

    We were shopping at Burlington, and saw The Cup and decided to pop in - the place is hidden away and I never knew it was there! The ambiance is homey, and very "family friendly". Every table and booth was filled and the place was hopping. There were only open til 2pm and it was 1:00 so we sat at the counter, and ordered breakfast. We were served quickly, the food was excellent. $25 for breakfast is steep. I had breakfast and tea and with tip $25. I'll need to stop in for lunch one day soon, I had the garden benedict and it was delicious. Very large portion and I'd definitely have that again. The scramble was small in portion and just okay. The menu looked so expansive I do want to try other things. Love the place!

    Sausage patty and eggs
    Melissa E.

    Stopped in for breakfast. I am never disappointed. The service is fast and friendly. Every staff member is do polite. It always busy however you are made to feel like you matter. Its hustle and bustle of the breakfast crowd is crazy. Yet it's not too loud to hold a conversation. Always my go to spot if I'm on that side of towm

    Wanisha H.

    I love coming to this location for breakfast! The staff is always so sweet and nice and the restaurant is always super clean. The food is always delicious. I always get the egg white scramble and make sure to get a pancake. FYI the pancake is still delicious even if you save it and heat it up the next day.

    Scott M.

    Love this place. This is at the Cup 2. More room at this location and much larger parking lot. Service is always outstanding along with amazing food. Not a bad dish in this joint. Don't sleep on this one folks! Very clean and cozy.

    Wow. If you find yourself in Reno, jonesing for a burger, Archie's is the place to go. We aren't…read moreresidents, but come up the hill a few times a year for various events. Until this 4th of July weekend (250/2026) we had never heard of Archie's. It was recommended to us and we stopped in on Sunday the 5th for lunch on our way out of town. What an amazing choice. I ordered their bacon cheese burger. Guess what? It was GIANT. It was delicious. It was perfect. Comes with fries but I got onion rings. The onion rings were perfect too. Largest order of rings I have ever seen. The burger (1/2 Lb I think!!) had nice thick bacon in every bite, two large and fresh slices of tomato, a big old slab of an onion slice, mayo and lettuce. I can't remember if there were pickles. It was the best burger and onion rings I have eaten in at least ten years, maybe 20. We will be back, EVERY time we are in town from now on. I can't recommend this place enough. Special shout out to David, our server. This guy made no mistakes. Laughed at all my stupid dad jokes, was attentive, patient while my companions changed their minds 36 times, and was friendly too. Says it was only his 2nd day on the job, but I wish he had been working for us at our restaurant (Hokkaido Noodle House) in Sacramento. He is a pro already, give him reasons to keep working for you boss. Don't worry, we won't steal him from you, we are retired and closed our joint 10 years ago. Rock on Archie's! You have earned a few new fans today.

Was surprised it had a second floor with a small deck and pretty decent views! Big place. Great Happy Hour Deals (half off drinks) and other specials. I haven't eaten breakfast there but the burger I'd put in the top 4 in Reno. It is giant diameter wise but the meat is the same amount of a smaller thicker burger which makes it no too hard to eat. I'd call this a Purist's Burger. Crisp lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, mustard, sauce. They went really light on the sauce to the point I didn't think it had any. Fries were excellent too. Price is very reasonable (that's typical near a college.) I've tried Royce, Juicy's, and The Parlor. I'd put Archies below Royce and Parlor but above Juicy's. Two left on my list are Armando & Son's Butcher Shop and of course Beefy's.

When we arrived, every table was full, so we grabbed seats at the bar. It turned out to be a great spot to watch the bartenders create beautiful drinks, including some of their signature cocktails served in a glass purse for parties of two or more. The atmosphere was lively and energetic, with groups celebrating birthdays and other special occasions. After looking over the menu, we decided on the lox crostini bites and the bruschetta. We each ordered a glass of sparkling wine. I added a chocolate rim to mine, which was fun to look at, although it didn't add much flavor. While we waited for our food, we enjoyed watching the flowing chocolate waterfall. Considering how busy the bar was, our food arrived quickly. The crostini were crisp, and both appetizers were fresh and flavorful. The only drawback was the volume of the DJ, but we knew what to expect as soon as we walked through the door. This is definitely a fun place for parties and groups looking for a lively night out. One last observation: I probably wouldn't choose this spot for a group of men. The décor and overall vibe are very much geared toward women, but the name says it all.

Treated myself to a slow morning and took a short, pleasurable ramble over to Pine State from the Renaissance. It was early, just after opening time, and there was only one other person dining in - so grabbing a table was super easy. Pine State hails from Oregon originally, and the space feels like Portland or NorCal transported to Nevada. Cool, hip and funky. I was excited to have a chance to try the Veggie Reggie, being a vegetarian, biscuits and gravy a usually off limits for me. This one features a vegan breakfast patty, soy bacon, and Tillamook cheddar topped with shiitake mushroom gravy - so it was on! The Reggie came out quickly and looked amazing! Huge and oh-so decadent. I got there right at opening and I think the staff were still getting into the swing of the day, because my gravy was pretty cold, which was a disappointment - and probably muted the flavor a bit. I also appreciated the early am fine cup of coffee.

Unfortunately, we were stuck back in the rear corner of the building on this visit. The vibes back there are not nearly as nice as the up-front dining. Service was still good even though we were out of view of the main dining area. We started with the cauliflower appetizer. Very well cooked, perfectly tender, and the Calabrian chili oil was perfect for adding some spice. We then ordered entrees, which included the duck duo and a Caesar salad. The Caesar is nothing to write home about. It's fresh and from scratch, but it's just a Caesar. The duck duo came with both duck confit and duck breast. The duck confit was unreal. So tender and so flavorful. The duck breast was a bit tough for my liking, but I really enjoyed the sauce they used on the dish. Most of all, I was shocked by how good the dessert was. We ordered the cast-iron chocolate cake, and it was unbelievable. The sauce that bubbles away in the hot cast iron was spooned onto the rich cake and topped with vanilla ice cream. Nothing better!
