Petal, MS -- Cuppy’s Coffee & More has made its way to Petal and residents are really feeling the caffeine rush.  The long awaited Cuppy’s Coffee café is celebrating its Grand Opening on Friday, October 26. The café with drive-thru is located at the end of Evelyn Gandy Parkway, in front of Walmart, and is the first specialty coffee concept to come to Petal.

Cuppy’s Coffee specializes in specialty coffee beverages and 100% natural fruit smoothies.  Co-owner, Baranda Anderson, said, “Cuppy’s Coffee is the first and only specialty coffee shop in Petal and I am confident that it will be a great success! I am delighted to meet the need for great coffee here in Petal. I have already received tremendous enthusiasm from my friends and neighbors in Petal. Everyone is excited that they don't have to drive to Hattiesburg for coffee anymore.”

Cuppy’s Coffee offers mochas made with rich Ghirardelli syrups and 100% all natural crushed fruit smoothies. Customers can also enjoy a variety of specialty espresso drinks including lattes, mochas and mochaccinos in addition to pastries, muffins, and bagels. “Petal is in for a great treat with our specialty cakes and pecan chocolate chunk bars,” said Anderson.
