Opened in January 2017, Octagonal Cup quickly became one of the most popular cafes in Hangzhou in just three months. The second branch opened in June of the same year, and the production was consistent and the popularity did not wane. The octagonal cup is designed to create a coffee stand-style café with no extra sofa seats and no fancy décor, in order to get diners to shift more attention to the coffee.

The coffee equipment in both stores is magnificent. The North Zhongshan Road store is equipped with La marzocco Linea PB double-ended coffee machines, two Mehdi K30s for Italian grinding, and a Mehdi EK43 for single origin coffee grinding. In addition, the store also has a FECTO touch screen coffee drip filter, which can simulate the barista's hand-pour operation to produce a single product coffee with good stability and complete flavor expression. The coffee machine in the town store of the North Huancheng Road store is La marzocco linea mini, which is short and concise, and the stability is not comparable, the two Italian grinders are Mythos One Black Eagle Edition, and the single product coffee is still made of Mehdi EK43. In addition, the water purification equipment equipped also provides a guarantee for the production of a cup of high-quality coffee.

In addition to the usual Yirgacheffe, Colombia, and Kenya, you can also enjoy coffee beans from foreign brands such as Heart and Sight glass. At the same time, there are also self-roasted single coffee beans to choose from.

The octagonal cup of espresso beans is made from the beans provided by the Canadian roaster 49th Parallel, and the coffee beans of 49th Parallel are mainly medium and light roasted, with good roasting stability. The Espresso made with 49th has a high degree of integration with milk, and the flavor is outstanding and fragrant, especially the piccolo coffee is the most recommended.

The overall style of the store is simple and bright, and there are no superfluous decorations. The variety of peripheral products on display is another portrayal of the octagonal cup coffee culture. In addition, the price of octagonal cup coffee is relatively affordable and quite cost-effective.
