The upper and lower supports each having approximately circular front and rear sections with a narrow connecting portion therebetween with the connecting member being anchored in the narrow connecting portions. The upper support is sized to hold a disposable plate and includes a clip to hold the plate in place. The rear sections each have an aperture therein defining annular grips sized to receive a beverage container.
