About Coffee Uplifts People (CUP)
Coffee Uplifts People, known locally as CUP, is the Bed-Stuy cafe co-founded by Angela Yee with a clear and unusual mission: source through a 100% POC supply chain, from green coffee farmers through to roasters and baristas. The shop sits on Bedford Avenue and has built a steady local following on the strength of its coffee program, its food, and its explicit community orientation. The coffee is well-executed across the board: espresso pulled cleanly, single-origin pour-overs that highlight the producers, and a menu of seasonal drinks that lean creative without losing the fundamentals. The space supports working sessions, with WiFi, generous seating, and the kind of attentive but not-overbearing service that keeps people coming back. CUP also operates a wholesale program supplying its beans to other independent shops around NYC.
