Look, it’s gotta be hard running a restaurant. There’s all kinds of expenses, city codes to keep up on, staff to train, and on top of all that, you gotta make good food at an affordable price.
So how does a restaurant stand out in a way that won’t break the bank?
Simple: use cups that aren’t cups. That’s what the places these Redditors visited opted to do.
Here are just a few of their creations.
15. A lamp
There had better be a genie in there.
14. A toilet
How is this so gross and so elegant at the same time?
13. A garden pot
…is that even a cocktail of just a flower with a straw in it?
12. An ornament
Somebody’s gonna cut their mouth on glass, bruh.
11. A…planter?
A snowglobe? A science experiment? I really don’t know.
10. An IV bag
To prepare you for your epic hangover.
9. A bag in a box
Just…*sigh*…just put it in a cup, man.
8. A dog bowl
Thanks. Very dignified. So glad I chose this place for a first date.
7. A pouch
It’s dangerous to go alone – take this.
6. A leg
That’s all. Just…a leg.
5. A pumpkin
This spice trend is getting out of hand.
4. A leather bag
Bet that tastes pretty weird.
3. A shoe
No. Gross. Try again.
2. A plastic rock
What, are the real ones too expensive?
1. A sauce bowl
I’m gonna dip my chicken tenders in this wine cooler.
I don’t know what to say to any of that. Just…get cups. They’re cheap. They’re simple. They work. CUPS.
