Starbucks, of course. Duh.
Seriously, I know that not everybody who posts here is from the U.S.A or speaks English as a first language, but what an odd question. The coffee cup was from the prop department, obviously, probably filled with water because with so many takes coffee would get cold, and it looked like she was eating what we call a long john in the U.S.
You can even see a pictures of a long john on Wikipedia, but that one has frosting. I can't remember if what she was eating had jelly in it or not, but that doesn't necessarily NOT make it a long johnI don't think. -

It was stated in the IMDB Trivia Section that they were Danish pastries.of which Audrey Hepburn had a strong dislike.

That made me laugh because it seems like I read a lot of behind the scenes info about actors who dislike the food they have to eat on camera. I wonder if the pastry was too sweet for her.
Mag, Darling, you're being a bore. -

I took your advice and looked it up. Wikipedia states: unfilled bar doughnuts are called Long Johns and their filled counterparts are called clairs.

There is a book about how they made this film that says it was coffee and a Danish. Audrey didn't like Danishes, just ate it for the picture. Holly would have gotten it, I always imagined, from a 24-hour diner or cafe, or more likely an early morning sidewalk vendor. As far as the real-life brand, who knows?

I could swear I've seen a photo where you can see that the bag she takes the Danish out of is from Schraftt's.
