Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea
2468 Northwest Blvd, Upper Arlington, OH
Crema's Take
“Crimson Cup is a cozy Upper Arlington gem where serious coffee enthusiasts and casual visitors alike find their sanctuary, thanks to thoughtfully crafted espresso drinks and creative specialty beverages like their standout rose chai syrup lattes. The intimate space—complete with a fireplace and comfortable seating nooks—strikes that perfect balance between being focused enough for an exam cram session and welcoming enough for lingering conversations, all backed by genuinely kind staff who make you feel at home. Whether you're decompressing with a matcha after work or grabbing a pre-lecture pick-me-up, this is the kind of place that earns the "forget Starbucks" devotion from regulars who know the difference.”

My new favorite coffee stop, forget Starbucks man, everyone knows they're over rated! If youre a coffee snob like me then go to crimson cup, you will not be disappointed. The girls here are lovely and exceptional at providing service with a smile, the atmosphere is classy for a coffee place, the prices are more than reasonable and the coffee is nothing to scoff at. If I could give more stars I would. The only things is i wish they would incorporate heavy cream into their "creamer" options but there is a wide selection of other things.
Love this place. Nice atmosphere for a date or just to meet with a friend. Medium sized coffee shop, but I never have trouble getting a spot. Coffee is good too.
I had an exam and I pulled an all nighter. I come here every so often when I think I need a little something before my math lecture. I pulled up around 7 am after driving for an hour and ordered one hot chocolate and another drink. The other drink came out fine, but I don't think it had everything that I asked for. The hot chocolate was literally white. Way too much milk and it wasn't even hot, it was lukewarm. It really ruined the rest of my morning because I had back to back exams and I was pretty annoyed. Anyway the workers there are really nice, and this is just a one time experience I hope hence the 3 stars. The other times I cam the hot chocolate was to die for.
My favorite place to decompress after work. I will take my book, have the greatest hot chocolate or matcha ever and be at peace. Staff is very kind and gentle, going on the contrary of a lot of places that have people that intimidate you while you are ordering for reasons like bad humor or just bad training. Here staff you look you in the eye, explain things if you are not very familiar and just be kind. I love the place. Several tables and sofas to seat and just enjoy, to work or study. Not to mention parking is pretty good! This is my to go place when I need time for myself.
Cute coffee shop with a wide variety of flavors. Their rose chai syrup was delicious in their iced drinks, but they don’t always have this flavor. Has cute seating areas with a fireplace too, to hang out and talk or read.
