    They are called world famous and in their case, it could easily be true. Featured on Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives this place is always packed. We were excited to get in rather quickly and immediately got transported to a beach side cafe through the atmosphere. The surf boards and beach vibe decorations make it such a chill place to eat and the food is always top notch. We both had breakfast and they were able to accommodate all requests. Filling and delicious, it is a go to for sure.

    This has been on our list to try, today we finally made it here. We were quoted 15 mins but were called sooner. Food was served quick but still hot. Danielle & our other servers were all very attentive. Place is busy but not crowded. Interesting pieces decorated the walls. Will definitely come back & try other offerings on the menu.

    Perfect place after an early morning bike ride and the BLTE hit the spot! ‍ A side of cottage cheese and I hit my protein quota.

    While I know going to a place as highly regarded like this, you should try one of their well known items. I just went for the basic breakfast of pancakes,bacon and a biscuit. This place did all the regular items perfectly. The place was packed and for good reason. My service was great as I was consistently checked in on, checking in on food and water. The environment of Boulder City and this diner are also beautiful in their own marks. I needed a place to eat after visiting the Hoover dam and this place was perfect.

    Stopped in for coffee. The menu is outstanding. I loved the feel and vibe of this restaurant. Spotless restrooms! A gem!

    It was out first time here. We came after our hike on a Saturday and it was a bit of a wait so we built our appetite before dining in. Thankfully the location was perfect since there was a lot to see around the area. The place looked cool with a ton of decorations of skis on the ceilings and a lot of photos on the wall. Mind you when we dine in we're kind of easy because we order, eat, and leave. The service was good, we felt like we were taken care of and they were kind. We order the OG breakfast sandwich and the pork chili verde omelette. We came in really hungry so I thought it was going to hit the spot. My husband and I really tried to like the food but it just wasn't as flavorful as it looked. The croissant bread wasn't as buttery as we hoped for and since the pork chili verde omelette was seen on food network I had high hopes for it, just for it to taste bland. But I did enjoy the wheat toast. We were kind of disappointed because of all the good reviews this place has but it was at least a great experience to try it out.

    Papa con Chile Verde
    Jamie P.

    Delicious breakfast options with bottomless coffee in a cute downtown - what's not to like?? Outside and inside are covered with travel kitsch which makes for fun photos. The food arrives hot, fresh, and filling - had the Papa Con Chili Verde - hash browns with green chile and cheese, pico de gallo and tortillas. Be aware that there are limited bathrooms. The downtown is very fun to walk around in with lots of shops and bars, and street parking is easy.

    Papa Con Chili Verde with hashbrowns and two eggs over-easy.
    Fat Man Reviews K.

    While visiting Las Vegas, the Fat Man and his wife took a drive out to the Hoover Dam and stopped off in Boulder City to try The World Famous Coffee Cup Cafe. This is a family-owned, family-run staple breakfast and lunch destination for locals and people around the globe. It has also been featured on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. I had the Papa Con Chili Verde with hashbrowns. This dish is made with Pork Chili Verde, cheddar cheese, pepper jack, pico de gallo, and flour or corn tortillas. I added an over-easy egg as well. The hash browns had a really nice crunch and good seasoning. The egg was cooked perfectly with a nice runny yolk. The cheese added some gooey texture, a little salt, and a bit of bite, while the peppers added a nice crunch to each bite. The pico also added a bright, fresh texture to the dish. The Pork Verde was beautiful, with great spice and juiciness, tender yet with a good chew. The entire dish works well together, and it was hard to stop eating it. I also sampled their biscuit with homemade gravy. The biscuit was light and airy with great texture, chew, and flavor. It was buttery and fresh. The gravy was seasoned really well, with big chunks of well-seasoned sausage that weren't overpowering, along with sage and other seasonings. The gravy was thick enough to stand up in its own, but not so thick that it had the consistency of glue. Perfect, flavorful, and amazing are about the only ways I could describe it. My wife had the B.L.T.E. on sourdough with home fries. This sandwich is served with bacon, lettuce, tomato, and egg. The sourdough was thick-cut and lightly toasted, with a light flavor, crunch, and great chew. The lettuce and tomato were fresh, bright, and both had a great texture. The eggs were well fried and seasoned. The bacon was medium-thick, cooked to perfection with crunch, chew, and a great salty flavor. The home fries came in a huge portion, were well seasoned, but were undercooked and had an unwanted crunch. They also came with grilled onions, which tasted good, but I'm not sure why they were put on top of the potatoes rather than cooked along with them. Coffee Cup has a full menu for both breakfast and lunch. They serve loads of burgers, wraps, sandwiches, plate meals, burritos, omelets, diner classics, and sides. They have a full bar and serve beer. The staff was extremely nice, and the service and food were quick. The Fat Man says that The Coffee Cup Cafe is Fat Man Approved with 3 chins.

    This place is incredible. So many delicious looking options that it was hard to choose what I wanted to eat. Everything we ordered was awesome. Super affordable prices too. I'm definitely coming back.

    All stop here for the best "dam cup of coffee !"
    Susan R.

    The crowds, always crowds around this establishment! Wow it looks amazing! We are not even sure what's happening and all the fun and happy here ! Let's check it out ! The fun starts outside and to see that this is a great place to eat and enjoy together . How special! Since its inspection in 1994, they serve American eats and drinks. In fact it's the best Dam cup of coffee too. It's family owned . It obvious that it's great . It's so busy after you order you hear the order when it's ready over the loud speaker. How epic ? If you can, only by chance get a spot outside to dine it's great to watch all the bikes and cars that come across the street. Located on Main Street, this is the spot that they all stop and share their stories at. What an incredible experience here? We are outsiders and get involved it's very exciting. The coffee will make it all worth it . How about the decor of this place? Stickers from all over they paint a picture of the peace and harmony that indicates the stories others have shared here. So much rich history. Come and check it out.

    Cute breakfast joint in Boulder City. Service was fast and friendly, no complaints about the food at all! I ordered the country fried steak, which was a big portion and tasted great. My favorite part of the breakfast was actually the toast though, it was thick and pillowy! The perfect piece of toast to go along with the coffee :)

    Love the interior decor especially during December this is my first time here we've never been inside before the times we come it's usually closed. The prices are very fairly priced and the pastries are made fresh daily. And they look amazing . The nitro cold brew with lavender is absolutely insane the lavender is so strong with i personally love the almond bear claw is next level. The staff was polite the place is very clean smells amazing and it's very warming and cozy. Love the place I'll be back for sure sooner than later. Keep up the hard work it shows.!!

Today, for example, ordering breakfast potatoes, they were not greasy, nor overly seasoned and not overly crispy as they can be at other places when they sit there all morning.... These are crispy but still soft inside. Service is amazing. All severs have a wonderful way to be welcoming and truly menu experts. Jamie is the main person here that has her passion on greeting you , menu items, checking on your steak and giving a warm hug thanking you for returning. Now that I find how community focused they are for Boulder City, I'm more aware that is why us locals have been returning. Love your town - we will love you back! Now, you may be thinking what does the historic hotel have to do with Hawaiian food ? Well, please do your history deep dive. This colonial style built building matches this culture and food perfectly even here in the desert. Try this lovely hospitable place for the food and friendliness's and tell your friends - you will be a hero. Oh , try the macaroni salad. French toast, steak and eggs, burgers, ans pineapple upside down cake. With a Bloody Mary - hands down - your new favorite place!

That said, I think for most people it would direct from the overall experience. The not so great: my fish in the fish and chips. The fish itself was good quality, but I didn't think it was seasoned at all and the batter was thick. Unfortunatelly disappointing. To be fair. my family enjoyed their chicken burger and pulled pork. I'll round up to 4 stars

Instead of just ringing us up for the other cinnamon roll, our waitress actually came over to let us know and ask if we still wanted it. It was such a small thing, but that kind of attention to detail and consideration really stood out to me. We ordered the Kyle Burger and split it with the sweet potato fries, and WOW. The burger was amazing, and the BBQ sauce was stellar. The sweet potato fries were great too. The bathrooms were also spotless, which I always appreciate at a restaurant. And I have to mention the avocado toast. I saw someone else order it and it was an absolute showstopper. Definitely going to have to try that next time!

They only had a table in the middle of everyone else and I don't want to sit with others when sharing an intimate lunch. When they're full, which they were they use it for overflow anyway. Very upset about it, but trying not to show my hubby, so I'm whipping this out really quickly. Real disappointed, but I wish the place well, because the food is, or has been, really good. Still gave 4 stars because I'm not a revengeful person. Just disappointed. We could have waited but my fueling proof ended soon, so we went elsewhere.

There are about 3 small tables outside and about 5-6 tables inside. Each one can sit only about 2-3 people, so unless you are picking up to go, this won't work for a large group. The decor was fun and colorful. The kitchen area had a lot of open/extra space so I'm guessing this was a bakery before and the new owners didn't remodel much to keep the cost to open down. They could probably get another 4+ tables in here if they did. Not a negative, just an observation. The menu was filled with interesting stuff. We landed on 3 very different things. There was a sweet potato bowl on the menu that looked tasty, and while reviewing the menu I watched one get delivered to a table and it looked delicious and it was ENORMOUS! I wasn't sure I wanted to each that much so I went with a chicken wrap, my wife ordered a pizza, and my sister in law ordered a "small" salad. We decided to sit outside and they brought us our food and a sample of the soup of the day as a complementary treat (or it was included with our orders, not 100% sure) the soup was a ham/lentil/bacon recipe and it was delicious. My wrap was pretty tasty too, it could have used something to add crunch, maybe wonton strips or something like that. The flavor was great though. My wife's pizza was a bit too cheesy and slightly undercooked, but it was still tasty. If we ordered that again I'd probably ask they cooked it a couple minutes longer. The "small" salad was HUGE! I can't imagine what the large is like and I can't believe the price for what you get there. It looked amazing and fresh. My sister in law said it was very good. Overall I do think they have a couple things to work on but I loved the experience and I would come again if I was in the area. It was an incredible value for the quality of the food and that's why I'm still giving them 5 stars. For about $35 it was an absolute steal for 3 people.
