It's kind of ironic to use a paper cup that brags about it's
environmentally friendly properties and then stack them two high.

    Does it still close at 10:00PM or stays open till later?

    You know what, I don't get all those cup things at that place. If they want to be so environmentally friendly, they should serve everything in glassware if the customer is not going to take it out. I think they randomly serve some things in paper and some in glass and porcelain ware. I wonder what the logic behind that selection is because I don't think they ever ask me whether it is "to go" or "to stay"...

    They served my cappuccino in a glassware. I think workers at coffee places sometimes use paper because it's less work for them. I think owners would rather use the glassware as it is cheaper for them. As far as double cupping it is very wasteful and they should have sleeves to use instead for those that want them because there precious little fingers might get burned. I can't wait to try one of their panninis.

    I have never worked at one of those places and don't even really ever buy hot drinks. I'm wondering if they don't want to use sleeves because it would be some else you would have to order and then if different cups have different cuts would you have to get different sized ones or would they sit on the cup in a different spot. It could also be that they don't want that starbucks look also? I think doubling the cup might be the easiest way. In terms of the ennviorment if you have a way to recycle the cups then it might be better then washing all of them, over and over again. Yes you do have to do it with the plates. But I bet the paper ones are a lot easier. The other advantage is that if someone wants it to go or stay it is the same cup. The thing I wonder is maybe it is a class thing. See hot Chocalate and Coffee goes in cups with a message and Fancy Stuff goes in glass, again I wasn't there so it is hard to say.
