Now with a bar open and dinner wed to sun it's my go-to place for a relaxing end-of-the-working-week drink of Brunswick bitter with my fried chicken and aioli. Expresso martini and mojito on the list if that takes your fancy.
Used to be our local and favourite joint while we lived in Box Hill. Welcoming staff and the owner very friendly, quick service and really tasty food. I still drop in for a coffee on my way to work.
Hands down the best coffee in Box Hill! Consistently smooth and hot with absolutely no bitterness. Nice cakes and pastries too & service with a smile.
The fritters are devine and amazing coffee, all delivered with smile. Now i am becoming regular here.
Had a lovely brunch here, service was great and both the apple juice and the eggs Benedict croissant I had were delish. Would definitely come back if in the area.
Best place for cafe food and is my favourite go-to place for coffee. Ordered many items on the menu and everything is delicious. Favourite item I ordered so far was the âcopperfield chicken sandwichâ but chicken filling is quite inconsistent as sometimes they are very generous with their filling and sometimes there is barely any filling. Another great item is the âWam burgerâ and âopen steak sangaâ. Coffee is the best there too

We returned to Red Cup this morning and had a most enjoyable coffee while petting all the cute dogs that were hanging outside with their owners. I realised when going to post this review that I hadnât published my earlier review from March 2019 when Red Cup owners generously invited me in to try out their revised menu. Not sure how this was overlooked but their food was well worth popping in for. I have posted my previous review of the food here below.

This morning we brunched at red cup, the new owners (6 months new) have injected some new life into the menu which I am excited to try.
We started with a couple of steaming hot coffees, it was such a delight to be served coffee so hot, I was able to take my time and sip to my hearts content. I really enjoyed my coffee this morning, the industry blend was much nicer than the previous beans served.
We decided to cool off with a smoothie and opted for the âdonât like short blackâ. This banana and peanut butter combo goes next level with the inclusion of a shot of espresso, a clever addition that ramps up the flavour.
This morning I started with the Red cup royal, these glamorous looking dish arrived piping hot, the combination of spinach, asparagus, smoked salmon and holindaise was decadent and full of amazing flavours, each element was delicious on its own but seriously tasty when combined together.
We also opted for the Grilled chicken soba noodle salad. The noodles had a delicate sesame flavour that paired perfectly the succulent grilled chicken. I loved the inclusion of large pieces of chilli so I could dial up the heat to my own taste, which I did.
For dessert we chose the Summer waffle. With the brioche esk texture and crunchy exterior these sweet babies really floated my boat. The maple, banana and strawberries and blueberries were the pair of flavour and freshness.

Iâm a believer in second chances and it was a pleasant experience at Red Cup today for our coffee and cake orders. They had no trouble with out coffee orders and our various slices and they even heated the escargot & raspberry white choc muffin. It was much quieter in the afternoon than our previous visit which was a little more clunky.
Based on todayâs visit would certainly give them another crack for a brunch again soon.
Just came here for a quick coffee. The service was friendly and the cafe was small but clean.
The coffee was nice, but I'm not sure I would come out of my way to come here with friends.
Overall, a positive experience.
Nice little cozy cafe situated about a 10 minute walk from Box Hill Central With plenty of street parking.
We went to Red Cup Cafe on a Sunday around noon. The cafe was busy with almost all the tables were taken. It didnât take long for us to be greeted at the door and seated down.
Staff were attentive and friendly, they served us with a smile. At times they did seem to be a bit overwhelmed but the cafe was full.
The menu offers a decent selection of breakfast and some lunch options.
I went with the Baked Eggs with a latte, and my partner chose the breakfast board and opted to change the orange juice to an apple juice.
The coffee was quite good, and it came quite quickly after ordering.
The Baked Eggs was okay, heaps of tomato sauce making the dish extremely rich. I felt it needed some more bread to eat with the sauce.
The breakfast board was nice and fresh.
Overall, not a bad experience at Red Cup Cafe, food was okay, and coffee was good!
Good coffee. That's a good way to start your morning in any cafe. Nice place, you can opt to sit inside or out. And again a cafe in the 'Burbs, servings are good. Makes great eggs. The servings are big too. Massive mugs when you like your coffee big:) Has enough selections for you to think what to get. I come here once in a while as my partner loves having breakfast here.
Nice place and good service. Really recommend the Copperfield Sandwich on the special menu, that basil mayo chicken with avo and beetroot were so yummyďź
And Baked egg, using the sourdough bread to spoon spinach, spicy chorizo and mushrooms was so good. The bread also can balance that rich tomato sauce and creamy feta. Coffee and juice were nice too. I'd like to come back to try the others dishes.
Wow, basically the perfect coffee. Happy I made the trip a bit away from home for my morning cuppa, great ambience in the place, and almost full on a Thursday morning. Just a great lil suburban cafe, will definitely be back to try food or for more takeaways đ
This is the perfect place for brunch, the servings were generous with high quality ingredients. We ordered the eggs Benedict on top of a potato risto and captains plate. We were blown away by the food and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommended.
One of the best breakfasts I have had in my life. Four mushroom is divine. Coffee came out 45min late but I will give it a pass as it was Easter Friday and quite busy. Delicious coffee too I might addâŚ.definitely going back again!
Great eggs, generous serve of salmon on a fantastic potato rosti and just as great industry beans coffee in a lovely relaxed room (at least when we were there early Sunday morning). Nice service too to top it off
I had nice baked eggs there today
staffs are busy that moment but still give nice friendly services.
one little thing is mocha taste a bit weak may can make it bit stronger
Generally good experience. Coffee is good and the heated armond pastry is absolutely wonderful.
A small cosy cafe, with friendly staff, amazing food and quick service. I really enjoyed the mushroom dish.
I don't easily relinquish a 5 star review but in this case it was well earned. The location is a little out on its own away from the huddle of Box Hill Central so I was surprised how busy it was during lunch on a Friday. Staff were friendly but the food was delicious. Prices about normal. 5 stars for me means I WANT to go back. Keep up the good work guys & see you next time.
