There is nothing better than a coffee scene in a movie. Granted, it may not be the place where the most of the action takes place but someone serving up a coffee or sipping on one in a scene almost always means something is brewing.
As the following shows, coffee is key to some of the most interesting movie scenes of all time. From the first meeting of two active heavyweights on screen, to a masterclass in how to argue with a barista, by way of a superhero who gets his first taste of the good stuff, here are our picks of fantastic movie scenes where coffee played a vital part.
This list is sure to give you a caffeine-fuelled kick but if you feel that we have missed your favourite coffee scene out, then let us know below.

As Content Director of Shortlist, Marc likes nothing more than to compile endless lists of an evening by candlelight. He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
