In Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4, a coffee cup was mistakenly left on set in frame. It was not caught until after the initial broadcast. It has since been digitally removed from future rebroadcasts and digital distribution.

Different shot of cast holding a similar cup:

Many news articles had initially reported this to be a Starbucks cup, but it has since been determined that it is from an independent local coffee shop. Some articles state that it is from Paper Cup in the Titanic Quarter, but the logo doesn't seem to match.

Other articles say the coffee was actually from a local shop in Banbridge, Northern Ireland, but don't specify the name of the shop.

Can anyone provide any further information on where this coffee cup actually came from?
 
Starbucks, Winterfel branch... Look they have a branch in Mongolia, Westeros isn't that hard to get into..........

Actually I would more likely guess it's from the onset catering van.
 
At first I read it was from a local cafe. After reading your comment I thought, 'this shouldn't be too hard to find' and looked up all the cafes near the filming locations in Northern Ireland.

Of those with visible cups in their photos none of them matched. The Paper Cup Facebook page mentions it but doesn't claim it. The logo is nothing like the cups.

Then I read that the cup is from craft services. But I quick search for craft services in Belfast got nothing.

I think the green dot has a coffee cup logo on it, probably not hard to replicate if you're really keen.
 
from what I have heard is that it was from craft service's and it's a generic green circle with the coffee cup having the simple squiggly heat lines.. but starbuck's has received like 2.3 million dollar's of free advertisment from all the B.S. about this stupid cup...

Those do look fairly close. The logo seems to be more centered and the coloring a little different in the screencaps than in the stock photos.
