Reusable Cup Program
Starting Wednesday, September 18th, no need to fret if you forget your reusable mug, but still want to get coffee/ tea/ boba/ fountain drinks without generating disposable cup waste. Similar to checking out a book, you'll be able to "check out" a stainless steel reusable mug (and silicone lid), enjoy your drink wherever you choose, then return it to participating cafes/ restaurants. It's completely free (unless you don't return the mug/ lid in 5 days). Sign up and learn more here:
