A beverage vessel holder is provided for vehicles having a housing integrated into a vehicle part, such as the dashboard, center armrest or the like. A beverage vessel receiving device is axially slidable in the housing and has insertion openings for the inserting of beverage vessels. A beverage vessel support is pivotally connected to the receiving device and carries a placing surface which supports the beverage vessels on the bottom side below the insertion openings and can be swivelled into the receiving device. For improving the stability of smaller-diameter beverage vessels in the aesthetically attractively constructed beverage vessel holder, the beverage vessel support hat a rectangular plate with at least one cup-shaped insertion indentation constructed therein coaxially with respect to the insertion opening in the receiving device. On two opposite sides in the sliding direction of the receiving device, the plate is in each case pivotally connected on the bottom edge of a transverse web. The transverse webs, in turn, are swivellably held on their upper edge in the receiving device.
