Coffee has worked its way into our daily routines, the average American consuming 1.6 cups a day! Not only do people drink coffee, but it has become extremely popular to post pictures on social media of their perfectly designed coffee art at their favorite coffee shops. This lead us to asking the question: What are, or have been, some of the best coffee pop up shops? We did some research and took to social media to find out….

05. Kin+ILK

03. Kay’s Boutique Cafe

The name Kay’s Boutique comes from the first initial of the co-founder’s family name, Kobkulsuwan. The cafe is driven by the owner’s love for breakfast and cooking serving everything from coffee and smoothies to healthy granola bowls and pasta dishes. They recently launched a pop up shop in New York City and are now currently in Bangkok.

02. Pin Drop Coffee

Pin Drop Coffee is a 100% mobile business that pops up in shops and events. Their goal is to change the way people drink and obtain coffee by providing them with an unexpected, memorable coffee shop experience. Travelling around the country enables them to expose their customers to sustainably-farmed coffees that wouldn’t normally get the visibility they deserve. Overall, a great coffee pop up with a beautiful concept!

01. Shreebs Coffee

Shreebs Coffee is a women owned business that launched in 2012 in a backyard in LA. It became known as the “secret coffee shop of Venice” where people would stop by for coffee, perform music and be part of a local community. From then on, they moved around popping up in gigs and events which lead them to their pink iconic coffee shop container. This became known as the best coffee pop up ever! So why did we put Shreebs Coffee on the number one spot?

For starters, their multicolored container makes them stand out from any other pop up. However, this container was not just an ordinary coffee shop, they worked hard to create their community a place for creatives and artists to hang out and share ideas. Weekly activities including yoga took place in order to make the average coffee shop a fun and exciting experience for their customers.
