Abstract: A beverage cup holder is generally cylindrical having an upper open end and a lower closed end. Near the lower closed end is a diametrical slot which is configured to engage the periphery of a paper or plastic plate. Preferably, the slot is configured to match or somewhat match the curvature of the periphery of a paper or plastic plate. The presently preferred embodiment of the invention is made of plastic. However, it is possible that the invention could be made of paper (cardboard). The invention is easily attachable to the many existing paper and plastic plates in the market.
