“ I drove the cab over to Kersey,PA, today, and I drove through Ridgeway, PA. I looked for a coffee shop and found "the Creative Cup". If you're ever in Ridgeway, it's definitely worth your time to stop and get a cup. I got a mocha latte, and it is excellent! Dave and Kirsten are very welcoming, knowledgeable and have it going on with their coffee and shop. While I was there, Dave showed me how he roasts his own coffee beans. He is very knowledgeable about the roasting process. It was very informative and interesting. ”
“ Kirsten was awesome! She got me exactly what I was needing to get on the road and my wife something tasty that she loved. Amazing staff and delicious drinks. 10/10 highly recommend! ”
“ We were passing through here, accidentally walked into a coffee shop and were surprised by the level of service. The girl who worked that day answered all our questions, helped us a lot, and also made delicious coffee. We spent several hours in the coffee shop and were very glad that it came our way. Everything inside is very cozy, polite staff, delicious coffee, we also attended a special event, so we managed to have dinner there. Food was tasty. Highly recommend. We had an amazing experience, thank you ”
“ Kirsten was our barista. My nephew (who is 3) and I came in and were greeted upon entry. She made us feel welcome. I told Kirsten what my nephews drink order is at Starbucks and she made one very similar just for him! He loves it!! Mint, dragon fruit, and lemonade iced tea. She even gave him a little baton to twirl with his tea. He loves to dance. I had the iced cinnamon toast latte w almond milk. Most coffee spots premake the creme on top. Kirsten made it on the spot! It was very good! The coffee beans tasted of higher quality too. The beans are from a co-op and the coffee shop roasts their own beans. I also tried their hot mint tea and it was phenomenal! We got all 3 items plus a 20% tip for 10! This spot will definitely be on my visit again list for when I visit family as I live out of state. I gave 4 stars for atmosphere bc the aesthetic inside was .... Different. But it was clean and overall great spot! Wish the hours were longer! ”
“ Loved the decor and local art inside and out. Overall a cute and trendy aesthetic. Staff was kind and efficient and my cappucino was delicious! Will return when I am in the area again! ”
