This place was packed. Will go again. The latte breve was great. Locals appeared to love it.

This place is the definition of a local gem. I stopped by on a freezing morning and found the atmosphere instantly inviting. The shop was full of life—a perfect mix of people working, studying, and chatting.
​The service was great, and I really enjoyed my hot chocolate and Liege waffle. The best part, though, was the genuine sense of community. I ran into old high school buddies I hadn't seen in years and watched other locals linking up. It really brings people together. A very positive experience

Busy but not too loud for a coffee shop. Only downside was children running around bumping into our table. Clean seating atmosphere. Have 1 gluten free option, wish they'd had gluten free breakfast sandwich options like other independent coffee shops do.

The place was very busy at 9 am on a Saturday morning and rightfully so. The service was quick, staff very friendly, coffee and baked goods were great. Lots of seating, including couches. Bright, inviting atmosphere.

This is a great local coffee shop. Locals hang out here on the weekends and they have live music and delicious coffee and food.

Everyone here is always so nice and the coffee is really tasty. The lattes are the right amount of sweet but you can still taste the coffee (though if you're someone who likes coffee that is just super sweet they'd gladly adjust it) the place also has a nice ambiance w plenty of comfortable seats. I'm so glad this place exists! Check it out for the truly friendly atmosphere, the comfy vibe, and the delicious coffee!

Best place, it's more of best relaxation place. It not about coffee it's all about a best pitstop on the go.

I came in on a whim after washing my truck across the street. I’m blown away by the atmosphere and the people. This is the way I want to start my day from now on. Thank you to the kind man in the suit who reminded me what community is like. This place is a blessing to the neighborhood and I’m grateful to have a new place to start my day!

Literally the best gluten free chocolate chip muffins on the planet

I absolutely love The Local Cup! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the staff is always so friendly, and their espresso drinks are consistently delicious. I’m especially obsessed with their croissant breakfast sandwiches — truly the best way to start the day!

The owners are incredibly kind and it feels so good supporting an amazing small business in my hometown. Places like this are the heart of our community.

Highly recommend!

Very busy place which is good for them. It had great coffee and the food is decent. It’s fairly priced and the staff is very nice. The down side is a lot of people like to hangout and makes the place super crowded. I have been several times and in both cases I would have had to wait for someone to leave to sit anywhere. So be prepared to just grab and go in most cases.
