      It's called Royal Drinks! The straws and Plastic bit if you bring your own then it's great! I did notice though that their smoothie cups are fully plastic so might avoid those!

    In the last year I've switched from plastic groceries bags to reusable bags. I got mine at TJ Maxx they were so cheap and really cute I've got one with pugs on it and my mom has one with a gnome on it. They're also huge! Definitely recommend looking there if you're making a switch!
