Cups Espresso & Café

We wanted to love it but nothing tasted right. My Soy green tea latte didn’t taste anything like green tea let alone tea, we still don’t know what it was, the Belgian waffle was super bland even with the butter & syrup, the coffee wasn’t good coffee & the breakfast burrito was just ok. The staff was very sweet and the location is great so maybe we caught them on an off day during the Midtsommer festival.

This little hidden gem is truly a hidden gem. Easily missed, the CUPS coffee shop is between restaurants and shops. It is truly a miss if you overlook this place. This place does not do anything exquisite in terms of coffee but what it does do is it brings a little joy to your soul with everything else.

CUPS does not just serve coffee, it serves ice cream and also some small sandwiches too! The staff is extremely helpful and patient willing to go out of their way to help you be fully happy with your beverage/food purchase.
The CUPS coffee shop offers both indoor and outdoor seating. If you are indoors, it cute and quaint. If you are outdoors, then you get a fantastic view of the waterfront, marina, shops, and other downtown Poulsbo niceties.

Prices are spot on and affordable. Not paying too much or too little for the quality of your drink or food. This place is great to go to if you are just beep bopping around the downtown area of Poulsbo.
Since this place is locally owned and operated, I highly suggest going here and supporting a local business.

Great options of coffee, smoothie, ice cream, and Italian soda flavors! Very small indoor seating but it's on an alley that has good outdoor seating.

Food is good but service was sub-par. Kids were on their phones constantly while orders were waiting. Garbage was overflowing and drinks were forgotten. Unfortunate because the shop is nice.

I am so sorry and hate to write a bad review. The picture says it all. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich. This is their "pulled" pork sandwich. Once again, we're all trying to come back from the pandemic but spending money on food is still my hard-earned money and this was just such a disappointment. Also, when placing my order, they had to make sure they pulled it from the freezer. I should have known then. Sorry guys.

My estimate is, we’ve been here about 200 times! 99.9% of the time, the service and breakfast sandwiches/drinks are spot on; the BESt! Today, we had our first “don’t be that worker” incident. After I posted my review, the owner immediately reached out to me and asked me to contact him. He stated he had a talk with the employee. Well, that’s all you can hope for and this gesture alone will bring myself/wife coming back! This is the BEST coffee shop in all of Poulsbo and the owner truly cares!! We’ve recommend this place literally hundreds of time and have brought many of our friends here. I think 1 mistake in 200 or so visits is a fantastic batting average!! A must go to locally owned establishment ! Can’t wait for my breakfast sandwich next Sat when we take our boat out!

I come here with friends to study, I pretty much come here everyday if i have the money. The staff are so nice, it’s a good place to focus and study at. Theres usually 4-3 of us that come here and drink a Tropical smoothie, or frappe, or even their hot chocolate. (So good btw, gonna look forward to drinking it all winter!)

This place left more to be desired… My Bagel was barely toasted, I don’t think the bacon on it was even cooked and the amount of cream cheese gobbed onto it was overwhelming. The iced latte was not bad but there’s other places close by that make much better espresso.

Nice little place. Good coffee. Food was pretty good. And they have ice cream!

Beautiful bakery with super friendly staff. Tasty sandwiches and very good coffee.
