About Us

Since 2015, The Local Cup has been serving up kindness, community, and coffee in the Near Northwest Neighborhood of South Bend, IN! Our drinks are hand-crafted and made especially for you by our awesome youth interns! We operate on a pay-what-you-want/pay-it-forward system, so that you can choose to either accept your TLC favorite as a gift from a neighbor or you can pay it forward and offer the next neighbor a gift from you to them!

 

“Everyone that walks in the door is a neighbor. No matter where you’re coming from, no matter what your story is.”
