Why use Borrow and not BYO Cups?Updated 14 days ago

This is a trick question. Do both!!

We encourage any effort of reducing waste generated by single use coffee cups, which includes BYO cups. If your customers prefer to BYO, then encourage them to do that. The key is that they need to remember and do it every time. 

Here are some of the advantages of Borrow for you as a cafe:

• Workflow - Use a standard size and always have a washed cup ready to go. Ensures that cups fit under the grouphead, are familiar, easy to hold, and easy to serve.

• Always available - Reusable option available, even if a customer forgets their BYO. Gives your service the confidence of truly eliminating single use. 

• Hygiene - Cups are commercially washed (either by you, or by us). No more nasty uncleaned BYO cups that might cause concern or ruin your expertly extracted brew.

• Same experience - Instead of ordering disposable cups, simply order reusable cups. They come in boxes just like what you are already used to.

Once your customers know your commitment and get into the habit of reuse, maybe they will prefer a nicer, BYO cup. This is where you can retail cups, and our full range of elegant options comes in.
