The High Cup

This is a great little spot it packs a big punch. Had a candlemaking class here which was a lot of fun while we were there. I decided I would partake in a pumpkin espresso martini it was so good. The restaurant was very busy due to the candle making class I think they need another barista to help. I love the class and I liked my cocktail. The only thing that bothers me is the parking situation for the location. At night it's a little concerning. I look forward to more events hopefully during the weekend daytime. Thank you for hosting such a great event and thanks for an even better cocktail

As much as I enjoyed my first visit to this coffee shop, especially bringing my grandma here, I've faced challenges trying to return. After my initial visit, I tried to come back twice. The first time, they were closed due to a family emergency (completely understandable), so I made a point to check their Facebook page before heading over in the future. However, on my third attempt this past Saturday (11/02), despite no updates on their page, the shop was closed again, this time with a makeshift sign indicating 'Halloween hours.'As someone who drives from Williamsburg, it's a bit frustrating to make the trip only to find the shop unexpectedly closed each time. While I wish them all the best with their business, consistency in operating hours would make it easier for customers like me who want to support them.

So many food options, from cafe snacks to Korean meals. Yummy coffee and flavorful chai! Theres also several events that happen monthly and board games to play while you wait. Super nice and friendly service.

The High Cup is a gem in Norfolk. The owners are incredibly kind and truly community-focused, which is what I love the most about this place. Their efforts to create an open and welcoming environment shine through in every aspect. I've had so many friendly interactions with other customers here, and I genuinely believe it's because of the positive atmosphere the owners cultivate. It's a great place to visit and spend time with friends, whether you're catching up over a cup of coffee or simply soaking in the vibrant, artistic vibe.The food is absolutely delicious, and whether you're a coffee lover or a tea enthusiast, they've got you covered. Their coffee is always spot on, and the tea selection is impressive, offering something for every palate.One of the highlights for me is the local art featured on the walls. They change it out frequently, giving lots of local talent the spotlight, and it's such a wonderful touch that adds to the overall charm.

Kindness is key.Sad to see slowdive go, but I love how this space is still being utilized for artists! Applications are currently open to submit work for display and artists receive 100% commission. I love love love love thatI really enjoyed the coffee. I got a raspberry mocha and she got the white chocolate toffee latte. Neither were too sweet, but the flavor was on point! We enjoyed our drinks down to the foam!I've been trying to go here since the $7.57 deals but I'm glad we finally came around to meet up here so we can try the Korean bowls. I thought they were tasty. I got the classic (pictured on the bottom) and she got the Seoul train (pictured in the top right corner). I also got a Korean corndog, the type with the mozzarella and fish cake. Sadly there was no cheese pull but that's okay lol. Alright so let's get back to the kindness part. Service was phenomenal. I believe the owner's name was Joseph? He took our order, brought us our food and drinks, and checked up on us frequently. I felt very taken care of. If I had any questions, he had answers. He gave us his personal recommendations, was open to making any accommodations in case we needed any, he even gave suggestions on how to mix our bowls best. It was lovely. I'd come here again for sure. I love the vibe. I'd come back to get work done, it's a nice place to catch up with people. The space is cute, artsy, and you can even take pictures at their neon sign!

Tell me why the Coco Mocha tastes exactly like an almond joy? This drink was extremely delicious.This places wasn't what I was expecting at all! I can't believe how beautiful it is. This place supports local artists, and has art on all the walls. Everything about this location was perfect. Thank you to the owner who made our drinks, and made sure to ask us what we thought. I admire business owners who take the time to have a conversation. It's really amazing seeing a small business succeeding.

When I saw that there was a bibimbop place that had recently opened up in the Norfolk area, I knew I had to check it out when I was in town!The High Cup not only offers bibimbops, but they are slowly adding additional items, such as the Korean hot dog and grilled cheeses. They also have coffee, espresso, and tea beverages.I ordered:+the Classic - this had marinated thinly-sliced ribeye (aka, bulgogi), bean sprouts, carrots, kale slaw, scallions, sesame oil, and cucumbers; I asked to add kimchi, but they didn't have this for a side (which is strange!) - I ended up being charged for a 'bottle of water' to make this addition; the kimchi came in a small cup, but wished it was larger in portion; I felt that the 'hot sauce' could have been more thicker and more creamier, as it was super thin in consistency; the veggies were super fresh, and this was definitely a healthy-tasting bowl; the hubs really enjoyed this bowl, way more than I did!Service was friendly, and there seem to be a good amount of people inside, enjoying their beverages and eats.Local artists can submit their artwork to be displayed in the space, which I find pretty cool!There isn't really parking, but some spots around the building in an abandoned gas station area. I'm sure you could find more if you drive out a bit further.+friendly service+local artwork+some parking around the building

I visited with D.P. to take part in the $7.57 deal (thanks, Yoonie) and took everything to-go. The owner, Joseph, was so friendly and patient while our indecisive selves figured out what to order.We both ordered the Classic Korean Bowl (marinated bulgogi, bean sprouts, carrots, kale slaw, hot sauce, scallions, sesame oil, roasted sesame seeds, and cucumber). It was FANTASTIC. I love bulgogi, and their marinade is one of best I've ever tried. This version of the bowl for the $7.57 deal is smaller than normal, we were told, but I thought it was the perfect size and hope this becomes a regular option in the future.We also ordered the slushies. It was kind of the owner to offer samples of all three flavors: mango, strawberry, and peach. My favorite was the mango but the other two flavors are on par as well. I ended up getting a blend of strawberry and peach while D.P. got the mango. Fair warning, they're very sweet but I thoroughly enjoyed them. Naturally, I added bourbon to the second half when I got home. We also tried the pastries - a coffee muffin and sweet almond cake. Delicious! The best part is this shop features local art for sale which I could've spent all day looking at. It's going to be swapped out at the end of the month.

Very cool space and friendly staff. I get the Candy Apple latte with the Korean Dumplings! Can't go wrong

I loved my first visit to the high cup, the ambience was all there. I tried the peppermint bark latte as well as the potato Korean corn dog. and beef dumplings which was all delicious. The decor was beautiful, and they have the lounge areas decorated for customers to take pictures. I was greeted upon entering, and taken care of in a timely manner. I was also helped with choosing my beverage, and had it catered to my liking. Will visit again!
