Didn't even know this small place existed but is sure am glad that I visited it now. What it lacks in size it makes up for with a welcoming environment and some damn good coffee paired with a cinnamon roll or a muffin.

Love being able to get my favorite Soup Spoon soup quickly. Only wish is that the seating would be cozier. Great service every time

The best espresso coffee in EL is in Lansing, right here at this shop. Yes, I should know what is good coffee; I had coffee in Seattle. I would go to the end of the Earth to find good coffee. All the time that I complained why the coffee in all the hipster shops in EL taste like coffee water (read: weak), I didn't know that this gem here exists. Strongly recommend.

Not sure if I got the lemon cup.. but worst cup of coffee I have ever had. Tasted like water and sugar. ??

Leslie is absolutely wonderful! And the coffee is pretty good too! ?

Very nice place to get soup and sandwiches, and a few other things. Love ?it.

Super friendly staff, fantastically diverse and fun food fare, just overall really great spot for a treat. I'm a big fan of the handmade craft sodas. Lemony lavender mint? Yum!

What a great little coffee and sandwich shop! I was driving home from Frandor, badly in need of some coffee and starving for lunch. I spotted Urban Cup out of the corner of my eye and decided to turn around and check it out. I'm glad I did, what a fun little place. The gal that was working was great too. I had the Bacon - Avocado BLT as a wrap, with Cole slaw, and a Mocha latte. The wrap and coleslaw were fantastic! The coffee was ok, not the best I've ever had but better than Biggby or Starbucks. It's very small inside but a great place to stop in for lunch. They also serve craft sodas that all sounded like they'd be amazing, and Mooville ice cream.

Staff was friendly & helpful. Food was great too!
