My fiancé and I came here Valentine's Day morning for a cup of joe and breakfast. The shop was full of people having their morning coffee and catchups. We ended up ordering a couple of vanilla lattes and some of the sweets they had on display. We thought they had crepes but the barista explained they had those on certain days and invited us to come back which I thought was nice. My favorite part of this coffee shop was the board games they had. My fiancé and I were able to play one of our favorite games (Guess Who) while enjoying our breakfast. read more

The Corner Cup Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

I wanted somewhere to just read for a bit. I also wanted to challenge myself to ignore Starbucks and find a local business. After a bit of research, I came across The Corner Cup. It's in the corner of a strip mall so you have to pull in to see it. I started out with a hot chocolate and end up with a spinach feta couissant. Overall the place is ok. Seats against the wall take a little getting used to but that might just be me. The folks are friendly and the food is ok. Nothing special. Good WiFi and relaxed vibe. read more

The Corner Cup Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

I stop in often for the coffee always good, hot and fresh. The staff is always polite and the spot is always clean.

Why yes, i'd love Nitrogen in my coffee! When I took a stop at The Corner Cup, the quaint little coffee shop just seemed like, well, a quaint little coffee shop. It IS a small store, only being able to sit maybe 12 people or so. But there's definitely more than meets the eye here. As staff described their different types of beverages once they found out this was my first day, they ended their drink tour on their Nitrogen infused coffee, which is a cold brew, high caffeine treat that doesn't come with any sugar or cream. This treat was $5.25. So what about all that caffeine?? Well, I have to be honest that I was a little disappointed in the caffeine content. I haven't had a lot of coffee lately and while I picked up the cup at 3pm, I was in bed by 11. The flavor of the coffee was pretty good however, and the liquid nitrogen kept the coffee cold by not diluting the coffee with ice (like a traditional iced coffee would). Located at the corner of Lawrenceville Highway and McLendon Drive, the Corner Cup is in the same strip that houses the likes of Pea Ridge or Southern seafood. Parking is shared and spots are not as plentiful as you might think. The lot IS maneagable but a little cramped. Customer service was excellent, friendly and eager to explain everything to me, and while I would have loved to try one of their desserts, I was on a sugar/carb diet, and couldn't have any, though they looked great! So if we were just going on caffeine, the Corner Cup would get 3 stars at the most from me, but because of the excellent customer service and flavor of the coffee, I don't mind edging them up to a 4 star service. Looking forward to trying more in the future! read more

I got a medium iced latte with vanilla and oat milk and it was amazing! The shop is quite small with limited seating and difficult parking, but once inside the atmosphere and ambience makes up for it. If you're looking to support more local/ small businesses, this is the place to try. read more

Local coffee doesn't get any better! Friendly staff, fun art, delicious baked goods from other local businesses like Duck's Cosmic and Emerald City Bagels. Love the variety of flavors. Love the maple in winter. Just tried Lavender Honey and... Yum!!! Skip Starbucks. Dump Dunkin. Support your local coffee shop! read more

Finally, a neighborhood shop that makes good coffee! I love this location because it's not heavily congested and right next to Pea Ridge (great lunch spot). When we walked in we saw the menu had classics and a few unique drinks (macha latte). I got a latte with almond milk and almond syrup and let me tell you this drink was phenomenal. Something most baristas struggle with is getting almond milk to foam up when steamed. Another issue is foam-to-milk-ratio (gosh I sound high maintenance!). Well the kind gentleman who made our drinks did perfectly. To top it all off we sat outside with our dog and without asking he brought her some water. Can't wait to come back!! I read more

The Corner Cup Coffee - Perfect foam-to-milk ratio! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

This is a charming little coffee shop in an unassuming complex in Decatur. They have a selection of interesting seasonal and specialty drinks. I wasn't feeling too adventurous so I went for the breve latte (latte with half-and-half instead of milk), and it was quite tasty. This location has ample parking and limited indoor seating but several tables that wrap around the store outside. The staff are also very friendly! read more

My new favorite neighborhood spot! The coffee is good, the staff is so friendly, and they have local art other goodies for sale! Outdoor seating is lovely. Would highly recommend! read more

Coffee drinks are well crafted and strong which matter. Great assortment of pastries. Limited seating but enough to have a sip.or grab and go, parking is ample.Customer service is fast and friendly. Apparel merchandise is cute and comfortable. Highly recommend stopping in. read more

20/100 - Such a cute little cafe! I don't live on this side of town but I'm around here at least twice a month since its down the street from one of the few cake supply stores in town. It's in the corner of a little plaza right next to a music shop and it was lovely. The owner (Ryan or Richard maybe?) could not have been nicer! He greeted everyone with a smile and was genuinely happy to help answer questions. I ordered their white chocolate mocha frappe with almond milk and he included a delicious cookie straw - what could be better? The drink was yummy but the service is what will bring me back for sure. read more

I love this place, by far the some of the best coffee I've found in Atlanta. The baristas are always friendly, and helpful. Super great to talk to. A great place to sit and do work for a bit, very relaxing and tons of local artists have work hanging up for purchase. read more

If there was one place that has the world's best cup of coffee, it's definitely The Corner Cup. Don't let the petite shop fool you, their coffee menu packs numerous offerings to satisfy all your simple or complicated coffee orders. The atmosphere is welcoming and I get major "small, friendly town right out of a TV show" vibes every time I walk in. Everyone is warm and pleasant...makes you feel like you've been coming there every day for the last 5 years. read more

I'm a coffee snob. If you get coffee from me I know the origin down to the farm. These guys know their coffee! Always freshly roasted and brewed. The espresso comes from a French Quarter market and a has been roasting this blend since the1860s. It's the best cappuccino on the market. Fast friendly and spot on brews. What's not to like? read more

Great coffee/espresso, small bites, and service. Everyone is so friendly. Looking forward to returning!

This is a fantastic local coffee shop. They have excellent coffee and baked goods plus are always helpful to make a drink recommendation.

Best little coffee shop around. Love their coffee drinks, baked goods, and customer service! I also prefer supporting a local business that helps my community. Both locations are fabulous! read more

A perfect cup of coffee awaits you at The Corner Cup. Tucked away just off the lonely little stretch of 78 between 285 and Scott Blvd, it's a little haven warm with regulars and people like me who had the good sense to stop in and check it out. The variety of pastries and coffee and espresso choices will tempt the most discerning palates, and if you'd just like a regular cup-of-joe, they'll fix you up. read more

I frequently stop by for an early morning macchiato. The coffee is consistently good and the scones are decent. This shop has a warm, "little guy" feel and the baristas are always so warm and inviting. read more

Loved the lavender latte! Great speciality drinks and friendly service! Also loved the gluten free breads. Carrot and banana are both fantastic. read more

I decided to swing by this place on my way to work and was pleasantly greeted on my way in. The staff gave me a recommendation of their specialty drink The Red Hot Winter, as spiced coffee drink. I found it delicious and satisfying. I would definitely return next time I come out this way. read more

Cure coffee shops are everyone's favorite... especially when they make and serve Tea too. I don't drink coffee. But I ordered an Earl Grey Tea Latte (London Fog for those who know) it was absolutely fantastic. So soothing and warm and I loved it. The service was speedy and friendly. I also ordered the Spinach Feta Crossaint + Ham and Cheese Crossaint for my husband. We both enjoyed our teas and the whole experience. Masks on for service. read more

The have a wonderful lavender latte. The service was great. Lots of seating. I'll be back!

Love the corner cup! Great, friendly serving locally roasted beans and sourced food. A coffee and a salt bagel is a total win! read more

A delightful discovery. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere. DELICIOUS coffee. Looking forward to a return visit.

i got a blueberry muffin and an iced chai latte (they have coconut milk!!) and they were DELICIOUS!! the smoothies are all used with real fruit purée, and they even have nondairy whip cream. they have simple syrup and other common add-ons set out to the side to make sure your drinks are as sweet as you need. theres also a bagel slicer, toaster, and a microwave out to warm your food. incredibly thoughtful of them, and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. theyve also got some local artists and makers around the shop for sale, adding a unique style to the shop the menu was a little daunting, but they were happy to answer any questions. i couldnt tell if flavor syrups were extra because they werent on the menu, but i only noticed them after id paid and i didnt wanna be a bother asking. totally on me though, ill be sure to check next time!! the volume level was comfortable, especially as a person who has sensory issues. id be happy to sit down for a coffee next time i visit. thank you so much!! read more

It's a cozy spot, but the pickins were kinda slim. They did have almond croissants with generously slathered almond paste, but the croissant itself wasn't particularly flavorful (not as buttery or as soft as they coulda been). The latte was ok--not great, not bad. The staff was perhaps the highlight of the experience--very pleasant, prompt, and polite. read more

The Corner Cup Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Best coffee shop in Atlanta. They have creative drinks as well as traditional favorites. They learned our names quickly and always make us feel special when we walk in. Our daughter loves to visit for the giant cinnamon buns and a dog treat to take home for our pup. read more

I would consider moving just to be closer to this coffee house. Great coffee, friendly staff, and delicious snacks. Best of all, if you want to bring the experience home, you can purchase bags of their delicious brews. So don't be afraid to go past the big coffee chains and head here. This plays knows how to brew coffee and they do it better than any of those big name chains. read more

Can't believe how long I waited to visit this coffee shop! I stopped in with the kids after school on a Friday. I found the shop to be really cute and cozy. Plenty of easy parking. Not too loud and not too quiet. Staff members were very patient with the brief chaos my group created while picking out pastries and tea flavors. They were probably more patient with the kids than I myself was. I ordered a hot caramel mocha. It was awesome, one of the best coffee drinks I've had in a long time. Kids really loved the Mighty Leaf teas that were being served. There was a nice, large selection! We took our order to go this time (see: chaotic kids in tow). I'll definitely be back another time when I can soak up the atmosphere a little more. read more

Really good coffee! My favorite is called The Vermont that bit of maple syrup takes me to Java Heaven. Also they have reawakened a sleepy dying little corner. Can't say enough about what the Corner Cup has meant to our community! read more

Finally a way to get coffee in this neighborhood other than Dunkin' Donuts or Starbucks. The cafe has a wide variety of coffee and espresso base beverages as well as a wide selection of baked goods. I also tried their walnut biscotti and it was good. They get their baked goods and other products from various sources like dekalb farmers market, southern seeds, ducks kitchen, city bagels My husband and I are coffee connoisseurs. Its definitely not the best cup we ever had but it's good for what it is. Definitely better than driving to Dunkin or Starbucks though. Plenty of parking. Service is very good and friendly. read more

Love the local food they sell and the tea!! Only thing is you have to ask them to fill the cup to the top for iced drinks, but other than that, the staff is so warm and welcoming :) read more

Humble and friendly staff and very welcoming atmosphere. I'm not much of a coffee drink connoisseur, and was comforted by the lack of silent rebuke when ordering a "cup of coffee". Excellent quality and service - highly recommended. read more

I stopped here on a whim on a Monday afternoon and was so thankful I did! This little coffee shop is tucked away in Decatur, but it's really neat, yet warm place. It's small, but cozy and welcoming. As I walked in, I was greeted by the owner and was welcomed right in. There were a ton of options to choose from, ranging from Nitrogen coffee, cold brew, Vietnamese coffee, basic espresso made drinks, frappes, speciality drinks and even smoothies. The also have locally made Kombucha and some pastries too. They have a wide variety of alternative milks, which is a plus for me. Prices were very reasonable. I was only in the mood for something really simple and easy, so I ended up ordering a black cup of coffee. I grabbed by coffee and a seat so I can get some work done. The wifi was great. It wasn't busy when I was there, so it was a quiet environment. Can't wait to come back and try something else! This is probably my new spot for Monday's and I am pretty thrilled about it. read more

Amazing staff ! Awesome seasonal coffees and great local art ! Living around that area for more than 10 years and no compliants

I love this place! It's super cute, and all of the staff I've met have been so nice. The muffins are to die for. The times I've gone, I get in and out of there so fast that it's much quicker than going to a chain drive thru. read more

I feel so lucky to have a great coffee shop so close to home. It's a small shop with a few seats outside in a semi-quiet location. The coffee itself is pretty consistent and OK. It's actually improved in the few weeks that I've been here, so I'm optimistic about the potential here! Usually I show up a couple times a week on my way to work, or to pick up a pound of beans. The regular crowd seems to be neighborhood locals, all pretty friendly. I haven't actually had the chance to sit down to enjoy a cup, but there's nothing that would give me pause about doing so. The small counter and tables don't seem attractive to the types of people who show up and set up a remote office, which I think is a plus. There's a selection of food and pastries there as well, but I haven't tried any. Overall, better coffee than you can buy at a chain in a nice cozy shop. Great friendly staff and all the morning necessities make this a great stop if you're in the neighborhood! read more

You get your coffee at a decent clip, bakery items are tempting, buy sadly nothing gluten free. Lots of locals hanging at tables. If you're wanting a Starbucks-like experience with more interesting flavors like Mexican Mocha or Blood Orange latte it's a gotta try! read more

Back again to find that owners Tess, Patrick and Rick are as friendly as ever, cheerful, eager to please and efficient. The coffee (a proper macchiato--espresso and foam only, as requested) was superb, as was my apple cinnamon raisin scone, perfectly done. They've added some nice touches to the shop since my last visit, including a nice wooden oval table to accommodate groups of five or six, and softening the overall angularity of the space. Lovely professional photography was on exhibit rather than the often amateurish and very overpriced art I often encounter in small coffee shops like this. Patrick and Tess (and probably Rick, too) seem to know many of their customers and call them by name giving a very pleasant neighborhood feel to the shop. Highly recommended! read more
