In addition to serving Jackson’s best coffee, Cups is also a great place to hear live music. Stop by around 7 or 8 on any given night, and chances are you’ll be able to listen to acoustic, folk or pop being performed as you sip on your cup of joe.
Frequent the company’s flagship store in Fondren on Fridays for your free double shot of locally roasted espresso, and you’ll also enjoy an eclectic mix of fine art, ample seating, plenty of outlets to juice your laptop, free Wi-Fi and a rockin’ music selection. But let’s not forget about the coffee, and the specialists who painstakingly brew it at each of Cups’ 12 Jackson-area locations. Baristas may be a dime-a-dozen, but these guys know how to do it right. Properly trained to know the difference between a true macchiato and a Starbucks imposter, they can whip up any number of specialty beverages in a flash with personality to spare. Where else can you get a high-five alongside your London Fog latte?
