Christmas Takeaway Coffee Cups

Christmas cups that are easy to stock and serve

Christmas takeaway coffee cups give your drinks station, café counter or catering service a seasonal look without requiring changes to the menu. The collection includes festive double wall hot cups in 8oz, 12oz and 16oz capacities, supplied in bulk cases of 500. They are a good fit when you need enough cups on hand for regular winter service, a short-term festive promotion or a high-footfall event.

Use them for coffee, tea, hot chocolate, chai, festive lattes, gingerbread lattes, mint mochas and mulled wine. They also work well for visitor drinks, staff hospitality and office parties where a disposable cup helps keep the clear-up straightforward.

Pick a capacity that matches your drinks menu

• 8oz cups: a neat choice for smaller coffees, flat whites, tea, children's hot chocolate and sample serves.
• 12oz cups: a dependable everyday size for lattes, cappuccinos, festive mochas and regular hot chocolate.
• 16oz cups: made for larger seasonal drinks, indulgent hot chocolates and premium festive menu serves.

Keeping a consistent size range can help teams portion drinks neatly and make it simpler to replenish busy counter areas. For workplaces and catering teams, it also makes it easier to select cups around the types of drinks being offered rather than over-ordering one oversized format.

Why double wall cups matter in winter

Double wall construction provides better heat protection than standard single wall paper cups. The built-in insulation makes hot drinks more comfortable to hold, particularly when people are taking them away, and it will usually remove the need for separate cardboard sleeves. This is especially welcome for outdoor service at Christmas markets, winter stalls, high streets, garden centres, food courts and transport hubs.

Festive designs and Aqueous lined options

The range includes classic printed Christmas cup designs, including Green Reindeer options, for a quick seasonal change at coffee shops, bakeries, sandwich shops and food-to-go counters. Festive cups can make morning coffee, lunch trade and takeaway hot chocolate feel more in keeping with the time of year.

There are also Aqueous lined Christmas cups, featuring Santa, snowmen and fairy lights. These cups use a water-based barrier coating rather than a traditional plastic lining, making them worth considering for cafés, caterers and events reviewing the sustainability of their disposable packaging. Always check the individual product page for the latest material and disposal guidance.

Where Christmas takeaway cups are commonly used

Workplace drinks and December hospitality

Put seasonal cups out at festive drink stations, in staff kitchens, for visitor refreshments and at office parties. Cases of 500 are handy when several departments or hospitality points need replenishing through the month.

Cafés, bakeries and food-to-go counters

Use printed festive cups for Christmas drinks menus, takeaway tea, chai, mochas, gingerbread lattes and hot chocolate. It is a simple way to give regular hot drinks a seasonal presentation.

Markets, vans and mobile catering

Double wall cups are well suited to busy outdoor winter trading, including Christmas markets, light switch-ons, school fairs and festive weekends. Coffee vans, kiosks and market stalls can keep cases ready for coffee, tea, hot chocolate and mulled drinks during peak service.

Garden centres and visitor attractions

Seasonal cups work well in cafés and kiosks serving winter trails, grotto events and high-footfall family attractions, where takeaway drinks are often part of the visit.

Plan seasonal cup orders early

Demand for Christmas cups often builds well before December as offices, cafés, caterers and event organisers prepare winter menus and promotions. Ordering ahead gives you time to cover late-night shopping, Christmas light switch-ons, office parties, winter markets, school events, festive weekends and the final rush before Christmas. Choosing your sizes and case quantities early also helps keep storage and top-ups more manageable when trade picks up.
