Where Every Cup
Tells a Story
The EM Tea Coffee Cup Café has been a beloved fixture in Buffalo's Hamlin Park District since January 2000 — just one block from the Canisius College Student Center.
We operate as a cozy takeout restaurant and intimate event space, hosting fundraisers, poetry readings, community meetings, and special gatherings.
We know you've been satisfied when your cup is empty.
The "EM" in our name — and the m.o.m in our logo — stands for "in memory of mom." Owner Kat opened this café to honour her mother, pouring that love into every dish and every cup.
