Sarah Jessica Parker Explains Why She Hasn't Bought a Cup of Coffee in Over 20 Years

Sarah Jessica Parker has written a new feature for Grub Street in which she talks about everything that she eats in a week and one thing stood out to readers.

The Sex and the City actress revealed that she hasn’t bought a cup of coffee in over two decades!

SJP says that she likes to make her coffee at home and the last time she remembers purchasing coffee on her own was when she was appearing in Once Upon a Mattress on Broadway in 1997.

“I haven’t bought a cup of coffee outside the home since I did Once Upon a Mattress. Wait, that’s not true! On set, I’ll maybe have a coffee from Starbucks, but it’s extremely rare. I just don’t understand how people get out of the house without having coffee in order to go buy coffee,” Sarah wrote in her feature.

She continued, “I like making coffee at home, though I only drink one cup in the morning. If I drank it all day, I would be a mess. I would be like a whippet. So I drink one of two coffees: I drink Nespresso pods or — are you ready for this? — Nescafé instant coffee. It’s like being in Greece. If I was in Miami, I could go to Little Havana for Cuban coffee. Sometimes I make Cuban coffee. I have the sock for it.”

“Even though I make the coffee at home, we do miss going out. We haven’t been eating anywhere except places that are super-close to home. Before the pandemic, we had started going to Chinatown more often with our children because we didn’t want them to miss out on an entire region that we think has some of the greatest cooking in the world. We miss it so much,” SJP added.
