    hyped up dessert and drinked.  Nothing special.

    BEWARE and BE AWARE !!!! Out of curiosity due to its popularity in tiktok, I went to their newly opened location in Elmwood Park. 1. SLOW MOTION - Service is super slow motion that is why the line is long to order and crowded. They have to find a way to make their workflow more efficient. It took 10 mins just to get my 2 ice lattes yet there were only 4 people ahead of me when I first walked in. Because I was waiting there for a good amount of time, I was able to observe them and noticed there were tons of drinks on the counter. Why not serve them right away? Why wait? Big order? They must be served before the ice melt and water down the coffee taste. 2. NOT EXCEPTIONAL - Their drinks were no different than any other cafes. Not exceptional - sugary. I can feel my blood sugar going up as I was drinking their lattes. No transparency with their calorie count. Tiktok/social media made this place popular. It was really hyped up. Will I be going back? Don't like their practice. Nothing special about this place. I do not have time to wait for a coffee that is no different than other coffee. Why wait if I can get it elsewhere faster? Is it really worth it?

    I like to visit a viral spot about 6 months after all the initial hype -- I prefer calmer atmospheres, haha. In any case, visited The Saucy Cup around 9:45AM to a small but totally doable line. Actually -- no line even, because most of the people were still deciding what to order which left the "Order Here" window completely empty for me to swoop in. After briefly glancing at the menu, I decided on getting both a food and drink item: for food, I got the 4 Cheese Quiche and for drink, the wonderfully titled Caramel Miso Iced Latte. First, the quiche: it is not a quiche, lol - it's a buttery and flaky pastry with a cheesy quiche-like middle, with a subtle onion flavor as well. It is served with a pink sauce -- and after trying it, the base is definitely ketchup and mayonnaise. It tasted very good, for being a quichessant. Second, the caramel miso latte: if you are a Dulce de leche or a salted caramel fan -- this is your jam. It doesn't have the same level of saltiness as those flavors often have, but it carried an appropriate amount of umami/savoriness. I give it the Asian compliment: "Not too sweet" -- which for a caramel drink is a rare find altogether. The Saucy Cup is a locally-owned business leaving their mark in Wayne -- stop by (preferably a weekday) to try them out! P.S: Only 7-8 parking spots! May you find parking when you visit!

    We came at lunch time. Didn't seem packed but it was. They are quick with the drink orders but not quick with the food. You will be waiting a while. At one point they were taking drink only orders. So come early or when you have time to wait.

    I would give this around a 3.6, so I'm rounding up to 4 stars. I love the aesthetics, and you can tell that's what draws people in -- if you look at their Instagram, their coffees are gorgeous. I'm always nervous about places like this, but it's SO popular, I had to try it for myself. Unfortunately, the espresso just isn't great -- it's mostly bitter. They're relying on looks and syrups to get you there and get you to come back. It wasn't the worst coffee I've ever had, but it's definitely not the best, and I can't believe that people line up at like 6am on a weekend day for this. All of that being said, I really liked that the staff was friendly, that they had a good system going with buzzers for each customer to help keep everyone organized and let you wander away from the window, there are a few (four) outdoor tables (which is nice to have for just a coffee window), and honestly, a large iced specialty coffee for $8 is actually considered cheap nowadays (this can be upwards of $11 at some places in this area where a small specialty iced coffee starts around $9), so I appreciated that the pricing was fair. These are the main reasons for the positive review. Be prepared: there are a handful of parking spots here, maybe 7-8, this place gets packed, and if you don't get lucky and snag one, I have literally no idea where else you can park because this is on the corner of a main road with a business on the other side.

    This might be the best thing I've had. I arrived early and snagged a spot in the back lot; parking is limited but doable. I grabbed a table and got some work done before it filled up; it does get busy. The breakfast wrap was outstanding: a warm, soft tortilla packed with fluffy scrambled eggs, melty cheese, and perfectly seasoned breakfast meat (I had theirs with sausage). Every bite was balanced; creamy, salty, and a little smoky; with just the right amount of gooeyness. The fillings stayed nicely tucked in without being greasy, and the tortilla held up well without getting soggy. The saucy cup they serve alongside added a tangy, slightly spicy kick that brightened the whole wrap. The coffee paired nicely; I like mine sweet, and theirs was just right. Sitting outside can be noisy from traffic, which might bother some people, but I found it calm and relaxing. I need to come back and try more things from the menu.

    Came here for the second time and loved it! I got the bear cup they advertised which was so cute! Their coffee was still as amazing as the last time I visited, but this time I also got their food and was not disappointed. Breakfast club wrap was savory and delicious. We also got the dot cake cinnamon roll to share with my daughter and we all loved it!

    Honeybee Latte

    Finally visited The Saucy Cup after seeing their viral posts all over my Instagram/TikTok feed. I live in town and am surprised I haven't visited sooner! I'm happy to see a business that is thriving in this location since all of the previous businesses did not make it. There was a line when I arrived and the super tiny parking lot was full so I had to park on one of the side streets. I ordered the Honeybee Latte off of the spring specials menu. It was super tasty and sweet without being overly sugary. Ordering takes place at the first window and pickup is at the second window. They offer a bunch of food options which I plan to try during my next visit. There are a few tables in front of the building but it's located on a somewhat busy road near the highway. I would recommend taking your order to-go. Definitely recommend stopping by!

    Finallllly made it to the Saucy Cup even though they have been open for months now. I was driving by and saw no line so I knew I was in luck. I ordered the hot pistachio latte, hot Cinnamon Toast Crunch latte, Breakfast Club Wrap and the Coffee Donut Croissant to go. Everything was great -- the coffee donut croissant is a standout for sure!! The Saucy Cup is just about always busy with a line out to the sidewalk so I wouldn't make this my everyday coffee run for that reason. However, I do live close enough that I can drive by quickly and check out the line to make a quick decision about where I am going to get coffee.

    After months of social media hype, we had to see what the Saucy Cup was all about. We came here to grab breakfast early Sunday morning and here is how it went down. The place is relatively tiny and right off rt23, the parking is as awful as the other reviews say. there are maybe 6 spots squeezed into the loop around the building. Calling it a parking lot is generous so be prepared. There are 2-3 small tables w a few chairs on the front lawn and you order at a window (no bathrooms and no "inside"). A lot of reviews complain about waiting and even at 8am on sunday i had to wait behind one couple to place an order. Three drinks took about 5 minutes and our food took another 10 minutes. Overall not too bad but the wait times must be crazy later in the day. For the drinks we got 2 coffees and a matcha. My sister loved the matcha and i even asked them to make it half sugar for her. the flat white and drip were good but just okay. i would not come back for "regular" coffee but their speciality drinks live up to the hype. we got the veg egg wraps too (i forgot the name). while they were pricey, they were also delicious. i love the spicy mayo sauce for dipping. Ratios were perfect and the tortillas were soft and fresh. to my surprise though the stars of the show were the pastries!! the coffee croissant was out of this world. crispy sweet and a strong hit of coffee flavor. it was kind of like a cronut. the coconut croissant was also to die for. a super unique combo with light coconut cream inside and a crunchy topping. i was truly impressed by the pastries. so the question - was it worth it and does it live up to the hype? overall i'd say yes but it is not worth waiting more than 20-25 minutes for. skip the regular coffee drinks and go for the fancy drinks if that's your thing. Definitelt try the pastries!! hot food is very good but the wait will probably be long and there are equally delicious options nearby. prices higher than i'd like but not crazy. i didnt want to like it this much because it has taken over my ig feed but it really is a great spot.

    So far I've been here twice and been fortunate not to experience the super long lines I see others have to wait on. Very small parking lot and they do have some tables out front if you want to enjoy your items there or to wait. Could be a nice spot to have a coffee date when the weather is nice again. I have tried the tiramisu latte and the caramel miso latte. I also had the Nutella croissant. Let me tell you that croissant was worth every dollar. It was so good and they did not hold back on the Nutella. I like the coffee they use there. I will say although they look like their drinks would be super sweet so far that hasn't been my experience which is fine with me. Truly enjoy the taste of coffee. I do prefer the taste once stirred though because there is more flavor. Great service every time and the orders come out pretty quick. Definitely worth a try especially if there isn't a long line. Also their prices are pretty reasonable. Not sure if this is a tip or not but I've gone around 805-815am both times and that is when there have been no lines. Also the entrance to the parking lot is on the back of the building.

    Vanilla Latte Iced, Dolce Baklava lattes hot and iced
    Michael R.

    Finally made the trip over to try this place and we got there early enough that the line wasn't that long, we got our order in after about 10 mins, but after ordering it probably took 30 mins to get the coffee. That said it was all really good coffee! The Vanilla iced latte definitely had a great espresso taste not burnt and not overly sweet. The Dolce Baklava was also a great unique coffee but didn't taste much like pistachio which is what made me order it. The Coffee Croissant Donut tasted EXACTLY like paris Baguettes if you've ever had that one, a tad too much icing makes it really sweet so just know that going into it. I'd recommend if there's no line, definitely try it out but I wouldn't wait 45 mins for coffee more than once.

    After waiting months to try it due to how long the lines had been.. I was not impressed by the latte... unfortunately it did not really stand out to me. I had the cinnamon toast, crunch latte, and there was nothing special about it. It actually tasted a bit watered down. However, the Nutella croissant was delicious... I have a whole list of places I wanna go to however I'll wait a bit before I try this one again. Service was quick and easy they gave you a buzzer once your stuff is ready. I was there at 8 AM so there was no line.

    Have seen so many posts on social media figured I had to go try for myself! Times it just right not having any line and a table to enjoy my goodies on a Thursday morning. The staff was super friendly and got the order out in a timely manner. Tried the hashbrown cheesy bread and it was so good I totally forgot to snap a picture. For drinks I got 2 items off the sprint menu- the strawberry shortcake Matcha and cookies and cream cold brew. They were both made to perfection.

I started this third-wave coffee journey after realizing I was mostly buying coffee from larger stores where the roast dates were usually two to three months old. One month old if I got lucky. And listen, there are some great third-wave coffee roasters on those shelves but the problem is freshness. At the time, I was deep into the pour-over coffee rabbit hole, and I kept passing this little coffee spot with a sign that basically said "Need more coffee? We roast it here," with arrows pointing down. And for some reason, I kept ignoring it. The sign wasn't fancy. It wasn't trying to be trendy. It didn't have the polished third-wave café aesthetic from the outside. It was just a simple roadside sign telling you exactly what mattered: they roast coffee here. Eventually I thought, "Wait a minute. If they're roasting coffee right here, why am I still buying bags from bigger stores with roast dates that are two to three months old?" So one day, I finally pulled in. Immediately - and I mean immediately - I realized I had completely judged this place wrong. This was a serious third-wave coffeehouse. And honestly, when you think about it, the sign is actually genius. A sinple sign that says "Need more coffee? We roast it here" is probably only going to attract people who actually care about proper coffee. Classic case of don't judge a book by its cover. Because now? I can't really get my coffee anywhere else. I've had some of the best coffees here. One year they had this Colombian Santa Maria light roast, high-elevation that totally changed my mind about Colombian coffees. I had always thought of Colombian coffees as more medium-roast, classic coffee profiles, but that one opened my eyes. Right now, they have this Fara Estate Nicaraguan light-medium roast that is absolutely delicious. They have a serious-looking pour-over setup with custom V60 holders and gooseneck kettle setup, so you can tell this is not just a place that sells coffee. This is a place that actually understands coffee. If you're the kind of person who checks roast dates, owns a V60, argues with yourself about grind size, or has ever fallen way too deep into the coffee rabbit hole, this place is worth stopping for. And if you're not that person yet, this might be the place that turns you into one.
