Can be purchased elsewhere online at a much better price. I purchased the coffee cup for a gift and plan to buy more. Just not here.

This review is from: New York City NY Greek Ceramic Coffee Cup 10-Ounce: "We are happy to serve you" *GREAT GIFT IDEA FOR FRIENDS, LOVED ONES, WEDDING, ETC" (Kitchen)

This coffee cup is a faithful recreation of the famous New York City deli coffee cup, from the pattern and colors right down to the slightly off shape that sometimes comes with paper cups.

The detail is the neatest thing about this mug. It has a fold in the lip and a crease along the side where the pattern seems to finish its "wrap". I'm not sure if it's totally faithful to the actual height of the original paper cup, because it does seem much shorter than other paper cups.

It's a good weight and is quite unusual, especially since it has no mug handle. And you can most certainly find it for a better price--Perpetual Kid has it for $10 and I've seen it for $12 at other places as well. Overall, it's a fun gift idea and a cool idea in general.

4.0 out of 5 stars too hot to handle, September 18, 2008

I love the look of these cups but they do get very hot after coffee is poured into them so they are difficult to pick up barehanded until the coffee cools. Fortunately I have a one-cup coffee maker that does not brew exceptionally hot coffee, and these cups fit under it perfectly.
