If you are in a good friend's house, I'm sure they wouldn't mind you making yourself a cup of coffee. If the person is not a close friend, I would just politely ask "how about if we have some coffee and then we can sit and chat for a while?" Then you can offer to make it if they don't. I had an ex-boyfriend (who did not live with me) and he would help himself to anything ASSUMING it was O.K. with me - and it always wasn't. He is history now but not because he was rude - but it helped in me making the decision to get rid of him.

Grassy was always taught not to eat in front of other people when they are not eating. Usually you offer the other person some food and if they decline then its considered acceptable.
At first I misread your question to be - is it wrong for a guest to fix themself a cup of coffee in another person's house. Even then it depends on how well the guest knows the person. People are funny, they need to be felt out first.
Grassy learned his manners in high genteel English style from his mother whom was classically educated. Grassy knows good manners.

Not wrong, I guess. It might be considered mildly rude if you are close to these people and you know they drink coffee. If you're already making some coffee, you might as well make a whole pot. It's just as easy.

huh??????????????????????
You know the answer. Are you or they short on coffee?
If the person is really young, they are stupid and or have no manners. If they are really old they could be senile and forgot you were there.
I missed a segment........if they are of medium age, I would say they were raised in a barn and have totally no manners, or they are trying to ignore you and pretend you are not there, therefore asking you to leave, rude in any case.
If it is you who has not been offered the coffee, it may be that you are a Christmas guest who overstayed his welcome.

They made the coffee? Then they probably made it for them. So you're cutting in line. So that's a little rude, yeah.

Yes, very wrong. Always make enough for whoever is around, plus more in case they want seconds or someone else shows up.

I never make just one cup for myself; I ask about to see if there is sufficient interest in a whole pot

oh yeah. I love coffee and I would be offended. So, if they were not for sure if you liked coffee or not, it would only be appropriated to ask them.
