When your doctor tells you to drink 64 oz of water a day, they actually mean Conscious Cups bean water. The fact that I ever lived without it is mind blowing. I’ve been trying to go through their menu and try everything but I’m having a difficult time getting through the menu because everything I try; I love!

They take so long to chitchat and greet people that it takes a while to get your order. Today I stood in line for a good 12 minutes and still didn’t get my order on time. I paid and tipped. So yes, I’m salty. The banter and atmosphere would be great anywhere else but at a train station where people are on a schedule. it would be great if they could balance it with a...
