What Makes It Uncommon

Light Coffee, Two Sugars

The classic New York coffee cup is immortalized in infinitely reusable ceramic with this distinctive creation. Once a staple of every corner deli, the easily recognized blue and white Greek motif is quickly disappearing from city streets. The durable design proves to be much longer lasting than the old-fashioned paper version, while still maintaining a distinctly city feel. This witty remake of an unforgettable original is a must-have for every city-living coffee drinker. Made in China.

Usually ships within 24 hours.

Smaller than expected, but good quality

This is a very solid ceramic cup, thick walls, colorful, and sturdy. I was expecting it to be bigger - it's definitely not a 10oz cup like what is sold elsewhere - but for looks, it's worth the purchase. For using as a cup, you'll be refilling it constantly.


PERFECT for NYC lovers!

After visiting NYC, I was looking for the perfect gift to bring home to remind me of the Big Apple. For a coffee/tea lover, this really was the perfect gift! I love how the cup shape/finishing really makes you think it's the original paper cup. 10/10 recommend!


Perfect Gift!

Bought this for a former NY'er as part of their coffee gift basket and it was a big hit. The cup was made of sturdy ceramic and the design was almost a perfect match to the NY coffee carts. Since this was ceramic, my only wish is that it came with a ceramic sleeve or some kind of handle. It would take away from the design but the cup is a bit heavy and may be difficult to lift for those who need that safety handle (me! because I am clumsy). The recipient loved this though and I would definitely purchase again.


For All Your L&O Cosplay Needs

Need help channeling your inner Lennie Briscoe? This cup is so impossibly perfect! Great weight, and it's got the paper seam and lip. You'll be solving crimes and cracking quips in no time at all with this gem.


exactly what I want -- goodbye cardboard look-alikes

I used to save the cardboard coffe cups I got from the vendors on the street and in bodegas -- I loved using them over again at home. But they didn't wear well at all -- after a couple of re-uses they fell apart :( Now, I have this classic looking cup for home use and it'll last forever !! (or until stupid me drops it by accident & it breaks apart :(


Like being in NYC!

It fits perfectly in your hand. It holds just the right amount of coffee. And if you ever lived in NYC, it takes you back to that place and time!


Beautiful but less functional than I had hoped.

It's really well crafted and looks exactly like cardboard, down to small divots in the ceramic that look like where the cardboard folds over. However, the lack of a handle means that this mug gets very hot when you put coffee in it. And while the size is true to life, it's too small for a standard cup of nespresso. It was a fun Hanukkah gift for my NYC-born wife, but she's bummed she can't really use it to drink coffee. Oh well. Keeping it anyway because it's fun to look at; maybe it will find new life as a pencil jar.


Such a great gift

I purchased this for myself, but decided to gift it to my girlfriend who loves "The Big Fat Greek Wedding"! It is such a clever design with a great retro vibe. Added it to another gift from Uncommon Goods for one stop shopping and could not be more pleased.


perfect stocking stuffer gift

I bought these cups for my book club who read a book set in NYC. They are very cute and surprisingly don't get too hot when in use.


Great gift idea!

Lovely mugs that fit perfectly in cupped hands. Great gift for anyone missing New York City. A great way to say "I < 3 NY" without the kitschy t-shirt. Looks great as shelf decor as well.

Any lid yet?

Verified reply from Thaicha

Sorry, still no lid.

Great question! The Ceramic Greek Coffee Cups are not stackable.

Verified reply from Jasmine

Yes. If you order a gift box, it will come in two boxed. One with the gift box and another with the box it is packed in.


Stoneware or porcelain?

Verified reply from Amy

This is ceramic!


Where is this ceramic mug made?

Verified reply from Amy

This mug is made in China.


Does this cup have a fortune on the bottom? I remember them having that in my youth. Thank you for your help.

Verified reply from Valerie

Sadly there is no fortune on the bottom, but that does sound fun!


Any progress on the lid to go with this item and/or compatibility with standard to go cup lids?

Verified reply from Nichole

Sorry, still no lid. Our best solution is to practice the art of walking steadily.


Don't your hands get burned without a handle?

Verified reply from Marisa

Many of us have used these in our office, and none of us have gotten burned. It getrs warm, but it only gets really hot if you pour in a beverage that's boiling. We just love them so much that we work around that by holding them with a napkin adding a sleeve, adding just a little cool water to our coffee or waiting until it cools off a little, etc. They look exactly like the old-school Greek coffee cups every NYC coffee shop and diner used to have, so we wouldn't change a thing about them!


How tall and wide is the cup?

Verified reply from Colleen

This cup measures 3-3/4 inches high by 3-1/4 inches wide and holds 10 ounces.
