The most popular coffee mugs and teacup materials
These top-tier materials are widely favoured by our customers, making them the ultimate choice for crafting exceptional coffee mugs and teacups. Each material stands out for its durability, design, and practicality.
Stoneware/Ceramic mugs
Ceramic and stoneware mugs are commonly used for coffee and tea. They are durable, retain heat well, and come in a wide range of designs and styles. Among the myriad options available, the Le Creuset Stoneware Mugs and Robert Gordon emerge as our most popular. With their elegant designs and timeless appeal, Robert Gordon mugs add a touch of sophistication and style to your morning coffee.
Glass cups
Glass cups provide a visually appealing way to appreciate the colour and clarity of coffee or tea. They are non-porous, do not retain odours, and are easy to clean. Double-walled glass cups offer insulation, keeping beverages hot while remaining cool to the touch. The Bodum glasses are a great option for those seeking a combination of style and practicality. For those who want to have cafe style cups, the most popular brand loved by cafes and restaurants the world over are the French-made Duralex cups.
Bone china mugs
Similar to porcelain but with a more refined texture and translucence. Bone china mugs are known for their delicate appearance and exceptional durability. Made from a blend of bone ash and china clay, they offer a lightweight and fine texture while being chip-resistant.
Porcelain mugs
Often used for formal occasions, porcelain teacups are light and delicate but still durable. They also come in many patterns and designs.
Enamel mugs
Enamel-coated cups are sturdy and durable, featuring a layer of porcelain or ceramic coating on metal. They are known for their retro aesthetic and can be used for both hot and cold beverages. Falcon enamelware offers a perfect blend of functionality and style, ensuring a reliable and stylish companion for your outdoor escapades or daily beverage rituals.
Stainless steel coffee cups
Stainless steel is the most popular choice of material for travel mugs due to the exceptional heat retention, durability and resistance to breakage. These coffee mugs are also lightweight and have a sleek, modern appearance.
Choosing the right coffee cup size
Espresso: Ideally, espresso should be served in cups with a capacity ranging from 90 to 120ml.
Lattes and Cappuccinos: When it comes to coffee drinks with milk, it is recommended to use coffee cups that hold between 200ml to 300ml.
Long blacks or Americanos: For those who prefer strong black coffees, a standard coffee cup with a capacity of 200ml is suitable. However, if you prefer a milder taste, a larger cup with a capacity of 350ml would be more appropriate, as you can add extra hot water to your espresso shot.
Other features to consider when purchasing coffee or tea mugs
Insulation: If you prefer to keep your beverage hot or cold for longer periods, consider choosing mugs with insulation features like double-walled glass or a stainless steel mug. These types of mugs are excellent choices for maintaining temperature.
Handle comfort: Look for mugs with comfortable and well-designed handles that provide a secure grip and minimise heat transfer from the beverage. This is particularly important if you’re purchasing a reusable coffee cup for on the go.
Compatibility: Ensure the mugs are compatible with your brewing methods. For example, if you use a coffee machine with a specific height clearance, make sure the mugs can fit underneath the portafilter or pour spout of the machine.
Dishwasher and microwave Safe: Check whether the mugs are dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe, especially if convenience and ease of use are important to you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a coffee cup and a teacup?
Coffee cups and teacups have distinct features that differentiate them in terms of size, shape, handle design, and intended use. Coffee cups typically have a larger capacity and offer ample space for enjoying coffee-based beverages. Teacups, on the other hand, have a smaller capacity, typically holding around 177ml to 237ml of liquid. They are designed for sipping tea and enjoying smaller servings. With a finer design, a teacup typically has a smaller handle and is often used in formal tea-drinking settings.
What if my coffee cups or teacups break when my order is shipped?
From ceramic mugs to double-wall glass cups, rest assured you can shop with confidence, knowing that we offer a breakage-free guarantee. Simply notify our customer service within 24 hours of receiving your parcel, and we'll replace any broken cups or mugs.
What coffee cups do cafes use?
One of the world's most popular coffee cup brand is Duralex. Made in France, these cups are made of thick soda-lime glass created from sand, soda ash and limestone. The reason why they're so popular is that they're exceptionally durable, are available in the right capacities for the perfect cup of coffee, stack well and are highly affordable.
