Boston Tea Party branches across the UK have banned single use cups from Friday June 1 2018.
This means that anyone wanting to takeaway a hot drink from the popular café will need to take their own cup with them.
The firm is selling discounted reusable cups for people who don’t have a takeaway cup, and there’s also a loan cup scheme for people who’ve forgotten their cup.
Boston Tea Party says: ‘We’ll make it easy as possible for you to carry on getting your usual takeaway coffee, but the onus is on all of us to change our habits and make a difference for our planet.
‘We want to demonstrate to other operators that to make a difference, big change is needed. We will make this work and we’ll share details of how we’ve done it with anyone who wants our help to do the same.’
