I love this little ma and pop joint. It's a cute hosh posh vibe. Definitely prepare yourself for a wait. But go to the bar and enjoy yourself. There's plenty of seating outside to enjoy your drink before you eat. The service is always friendly. The menu is pretty big and so are the portions so if you go away hungry that's a you problem. The food is delicious. We had a couple of different sandwiches and also some pancakes. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. It's definitely worth the drive from Vegas. We will absolutely be coming back! read more

I like to find a good breakfast spot where we might roam into, and this was on my "must try" list forever ago, so when I finally woke up early one morning after my sister offered a good spot- we gave this place a shot. I had high expectations for The Coffee Cup since my family members love it there, and speak highly of the food. The coffee cups were neat, each diner who had coffee had one of their signature cups in different colors, which I felt was a nice touch to the place. We were seated right in the front of the restaurant, which was a good view of the place, the staff and the diners waiting outside to eat. It is sort of a small, sfamily feel restaurant that provides you individual creamers, sugar packets, and syrup in a squeeze bottle. I was willing to sit in front of the restaurant and put my nerves aside because I was expecting to be blown away, and to be taken to another flavor world. I ordered the hangover, and everyone else got different dishes that seemed good off the menu. I tried my dad's chile verde omelette, their cinnamon roll, the waffle, sausages, bacon, the short stacks pancakes, the plain jane, and the ribeye and eggs. For a cafe that is "world famous", I expected the flavor to be out of the world and it was not. Everything I tasted was very plain, my gravy needed more flavor, and the omelettes, steak, pancakes were not anything that would make me want to go back. The restaurant was busy, but the food was coming out quick to every table, so that was a plus. The service was okay. We had plenty of offers for coffee refills from the staff, but had to ask multiple times for napkins because they seemed to give us about 3 with the dishes they brought, and the servers were not friendly. We have experienced other servers asking if we'd been there before, or even attempting to suggest their favorites or popular dishes on the menu and our server came once to ask for our drinks, then came to ask for the order. She checked on us once after we got the food, and then to bring the check. They were not over friendly, or didn't try to make a conversation to seem friendly or helpful. The decor is old pictures of people, either around town, the owner(s) family, vets and etc. There is also a big picture of Guy Fieri who made an appearance there, maybe when it was in its glory. I left sad from The Coffee Cup, I don't know if maybe there was another dish I should have tried, or maybe there was a disconnect with the staff and guests- or just us since we didn't get much talk from them at all besides them asking if we were ready, okay, or us asking for things we needed form them. Maybe they are not as attentive as they should be, or maybe they just had a lot going on; but I was not impressed and would not go back. read more

For an area that doesn't have much dining choices, the coffee cup stands out, not only because it was featured on the Food Network but because their food speaks for itself. Great options that delivers on taste. There's a bar with options for some drinks but don't expect a boozy brunch as much as an enjoyable meal. The service is alright, nothing too noteworthy though it was a packed and busy place so expect some wait. The vibe is small town diner with good home cooked food and relaxed casual meal with your neighbors. Also, the grungy, dive bar look is a vibe. read more

First, I can not say enough about the service. They worked out an amazing system of greeters, dining room managers, servers so you are always taken care of. They even have a place to get drinks (even non-Alcoholic ones like milk and soda) while you wait. Now the food: the hangover--biscuits, sausage, sausage gravy, eggs and cheese....SOOOO good. I added a some pepper because that is my tastebuds but 10/10 Chili cheese dog burrito (featured on diners dives and drive ins) was so good it you like chili cheese dogs...one piece of advice...leave out the jalapeños if you don't like spicy and forget the bacon as it made it hard to eat and didn't really add anything. 9/10 Cheeseburger. Solid decent Cheeseburger. Would not recommend since there are so many better options but it was good and hit the spot for my youngest. 7/10 Definitely recommend, wish I could have tried more food!! read more

Dude, I couldn't imagine having breakfast anywhere else. Though, you do have to get in early as this place is, well, very liked to say the least. Even then the service is fairly fast given how many people are in there, and it's just a real nice place to sit down and relax for a little while before going off to work. read more

Had great drinks amazing chili verde and fresh baked cinnamon roll. Service fast. Ambiance is small town locals cafe. Love it! Worth the drive! read more

Pros: -casual spot with good food -parking stalls in front of restaurant along one of their main streets -staff constantly refilled your coffee so you always had something warm to drink Cons: -none A tasty and memorable meal. Would definitely eat there again. read more

Hubby & I tried The Coffee Cup after getting the recommendation from a Boulder City native & it certainly did not disappoint. Hubby had 3 eggs, sausage links & hash browns. I had their breakfast tacos (Taco Tuesday Special) talk about large portions!! And No, I did not finish my meal only finished 1 taco but now have lunch for later. Everything was perfectly delicious from our meals to the coffee. All the staff we chatted with were friendly & courteous. We were there about 1130 & the place was packed, to be seated immediately we chose the counter seating. The food came out pretty quick especially when you consider how busy they were. Absolutely loved this old school diner. read more

Food, service, and ambiance was perfect. The wait time was quick. Their people are very customer oriented

I live in Henderson but make it a point to drive out to Boulder City for my Coffee cup needs. They have been featured on Diners Drive in's and dives as well as Good morning America, and for good reason. The restaurant has a cute old hometown feel to it, and their menu is wonderful with plenty of options, I usually go with huevos rancheros or their papa con chili verde which is one of their featured dishes on food network but today I went with the breakfast tacos, which were the perfect portion, you get 3 corn tortilla tacos filled with eggs, bacon, pico, cilantro, potatoes, cheese and a side of salsa, the flavor was great and the chipotle mayo on top is a nice flavor to the tacos. The coffee cup is always busy but they have a bunch of seating outside while you wait for your table and the wait usually never seems to be more than 15 minutes which is absolutely worth it. read more

Pretty busy but a place with a fun vibe and good food. You may have to wait a bit for seating so plan accordingly

What a treat! Visiting friend in BC and met here for breakfast. The food was fantastic and the service was top notch. You can tell, the people who work here like being here. I live the patches on the walls (Cal Fire, Salinas Fire and more). Highly recommend you stop in. read more

Got here early and we were let right in--we were waiting for a friend to join us and the waitress was very kind and patient with us. I ordered Eggs, Hashbrowns and White Rice w/coffee, the coffee was very good but being so far from the house (Las Vegas) I just was not sure how much to drink :) My friend ordered the Chicken fried steak which he said was fantastic, another friend had suggested it was the best he had ever had and according to my friend, the information was correct and our other friend ordered Ham and eggs and she loved it. It's a cute restaurant--No booths, at least not on the side we were on but I like tables and the walls are decorated with photos and of course the fact that Guy Fieri from "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" visited is made clear, in fact it's how I found out about the restaurant. The bathroom is private which I LOVE. They do have a Vegan option--I am an Ovo Vegetarian (I do not eat meat, dairy or honey but do eat eggs) so next time I might try that and there will be a next time! read more

The Coffee Cup - Diners Near Me - Boulder City, Nevada

Back again! Boulder City is such a fun town to shop and look around in and has such great places to grab a bite. We brought out of state friends to enjoy The Coffee Cup. Just like last time we were told 30 minutes and it ended up an hour wait. Once we got to our table we still had a ten minute wait for a runner for drinks before we ever saw our server. I knew there were long waits so I told my company before so they would expect it. We did go in and grab a Bloody Mary to enjoy while we waited. It was very strong. There was no skimping on the alcohol. It was good and had an olive, celery, and bacon strip to top it off. While looking at the menu we asked the runner what she liked & she said she was vegetarian so she wasn't a good person to ask. You can tell someone you are vegetarian but always give a hands up to a dish. Our table ordered breakfast tacos and the pork Chili omelette with pancakes which where recommended by our server. We also got the huevos rancheros and Bomb Fries. I think the Bomb fries were my favorite thing. There were large chunks of pork in the green chili and the fries are seasoned and crispy and crunchy but soft in the inside. Onions were chopped and raw on top and cheese and jalapeños. My pork Chili omelette was the same which large pieces of pork and it was very tender. Pancakes were fluffy and delicious. Huevos Rancheros was good also. The home fries are killer! It took us a while to flag someone down for ketchup and we constantly had to flag someone down for refills on our drinks but other than that our experience was good. We still love the food. I think the servers were getting tired as it was a constant steam of customers and wait even up to 1:30pm when we were leaving. Coffee Cup is a great place. If you don't mind waiting you will enjoy a restaurant cooked meal that tastes like home. read more

The Coffee Cup 512 Nevada Hwy, Boulder City NV 89005 June 8, 2023 Thursday - 6 AM for breakfast 1 Adult Atmosphere - 4 stars Food - 5 stars Service - 5 stars Background - My business trip has ended and driving home to PHX from Vegas. I love hitting up the TV series Diners, Drive-In and Dives restaurants. Last time I was here it was before my Yelp days. Atmosphere - Old Boulder City on the main street, hard to miss. Old location but love the character. Looks like they are in two adjent spots. I sat at counter top, always a great spot when you are flying solo. Food - I am pretty sure I had this last time too. The pork chili verde omelette. Just give me the pork by the truck loads. I could eat that for weeks!! A nice little bite of heat but nothing major behind it. Service - My coffee never ran out, what more do you need for a breakfast place. Oh speed, that is that too. Future - Clearly yes. read more

Stopped by one morning after packing up camp. Cute area and the place itself isn't that big but boy, is their food something else!!!! If you gotta wait, I promise that it is worth it! Server was super friendly and gave her thoughts when we asked questions. I ended up with the 'Papa Con Chili Verde' and it was AMAZING!! I know it doesn't look like much in the pic but it was delicious! Hashbrowns under pork chili verde with a side of corn tortillas. Tasted like my family made it. I will definitely be back when I am in the area, there were quite a few other plates that I wanted to try. read more

Awesome food with easy access if traveling though to Las Vegas. Highly recommend this place Food is great and the atmosphere is cool! ,

Get there early but the food staff and cocktails are amazing always a fun time. I highly recommend the breakfast tacos

This is a solid, old-school breakfast diner with a nice little bar in the corner where you can grab drinks while you wait. Went there on a Sunday morning and was told the wait would be an hour, but was sat in 30 minutes so I can't be upset about that. The food is what I like to call, "Ugly delicious." The papas con Chili verde with a sunny side egg on top and the Chili verde omelette were both deeply flavorful and surprisingly good. I will say the service leaves a bit to be desired. Despite being seated earlier than expected, we waited about 15 minutes to have our order taken. A regular was seated next to me 15 minutes after I was and his order was taken immediately. Servers didn't even offer to take ours until I said something when I saw that. Then it was another 30 minute wait for our food. Better service and less favoritism and this place could have been 5 stars. Ambience was cute and classic, but it was unnerving how proudly patrons sport Schutzstaffel (SS) dedicated clothing here. read more

The Coffee Cup - Papas con Chile verde and Chile verde omelette. - Diners Near Me - Boulder City, Nevada

We were seated at a table and waited upwards of 10-15 minutes just for the waitress to finally approach us, mind you the restaurant was not busy at this time. Then the waitress was very rude, giving dirty looks and barely interacting with us. She at one point had her back facing me so she could address my boyfriend while fully ignoring me. Food isn't anything to write home about and after the catty and rude behavior shown by the staff I will not be returning. Those girls can get paid by other people to be treated as such. read more

Bloody Mary's! Get them. The mix is great and the bartender understands the importance of extra olives. Amd the Bloody Mary bacon can be ordered on the side to give to the pork eaters in your group. And the price can't be beat. Make the drive from Vegas for them.worth the drive and the $8. And the Mimosa is a great deal at $7. Now for the food - quotes from each person at the table. The vegan is yummy. The godfather plate is great. The huevos rancheros is pretty legit. The chili verde had. Huge chunks of pork (not something I would like but that is why I wasn't the one to order it) Oh and this place was featured on diners drive ins and dives. Didn't know that until we got here. We would eat here again read more

So I have eaten here before and food was good but I went today and the food is nothing like it used to be. No taste and things just not cooked correctly. The waitress was awesome and she did take money off the bill and the coffee is good. But the food needs to be corrected if you want to stay open and u don't want to close down and I don't want that to happen as it is iconic please focus more on who you hire to cook. Change that and people will come back. place is super cute love all the old stuff in there read more

I'm gonna give this place a 4.6. Food was great, cool atmosphere, full bar, but long ass wait time. Very cool little town that reminds me of being in the mountains. Not sure on average wait times but Sunday morning was insane. I got the meatloaf and eggs, I added some hash browns as well. I know what your thinking meatloaf for breakfast??? But it was surprisingly tasty. Also brown gravy on anything slays. I simply mixed up my plate into skillet type dish and munched. I also got a biscuit and gravy on the side it was choice and I'd get it all again. They have a bar you can get drinks from while you wait. Not sure I could have held out without some beers. I assume Saturday and Sunday mornings are their busiest so be warned! read more

This place has gone so political and down hill. I hadn't been here in years, but remembered it as a good greasy spoon diner for locals in Boulder City area. While Boulder City is conservative, the Coffee Cup was not in your face about their political affiliation. Now, it's covered with FJB and NRA stickers. Dudes, I'm just here for breakfast potatoes and avocado toast. No one in this place looked even close to happy. Not our server, not the other people dining here. Bad vibes and bad energy. Food was not very good. Will not return. read more
