Customizable bowls have been a big trend in fast, casual eateries like Chipotle, Qdoba, Big Bowl, and any location for years, and an East Chicago entrepreneur is hoping to make it even more convenient for the lifestyle. busy today, where people are often on the road from race to race.
The In The Cup restaurant in East Chicago offers everything in cups for convenience, whether it’s meals, salads or desserts.
The restaurant, located at 821 Main Street, allows customers to personalize their mugs with the ingredients of their choice. It specializes in soul food and seafood, especially shrimp and crab.
Owner Kelvin Bride came up with the concept because it was always on the move.
“We put anything in a cup: pizza, tacos, potatoes, popcorn,” he said. “It’s a round trip so you can be on the go. “
In The Cup also offers curbside pickup, delivery and catering, including for small private parties.

Guests can have breakfast in a mug, vegan food in a mug, keto food in a mug, loaded potatoes in a mug, rolled ice cream in a mug, and even traditionally served foods in cups – like elote and fruit – in a cup. Popular items include Stuffed Waffles, Pans, Shrimp, and Oatmeal and The Trinity, which combines steak, chicken, and shrimp.
“It’s a stylish place,” said Bride. “This is my hometown. I try to locate all of my businesses in my hometown. I want to help people and give them the opportunity to have a job. My motto is to try to give people something that “They’ve never had it before. Right now I’m,” I’m just spreading the word. I’m trying to give hope to people in my hometown.
The In The Cup restaurant also sells coffee, tea and Frappuccino drinks.

“People love it. We even asked if some would like something on a plate, like nachos,” he said. “Our customers love to put their food in a cup and personalize it. It’s a concept that really shakes them up.”
The In the Cup restaurant is open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week.
