Honest Sustainability

We take an honest approach to environmental sustainability as we know it is impossible to be perfect. There are some amazing products/solutions out there that allow us to drastically reduce our impact on the environment. If you ever have unique solutions or ideas, please feel free to share them with us!

  • Glass & Ceramics First

    80% of the events we do today are nearly waste free with all reusable cups for drinks service. We work with local ceramist Heather M. Lott for all of our current ceramics. As an example, we have a cafe residency at the Rivian Hub in Venice where we use 100% reusable cups and mugs:) Shoutout to organizations like LACOE , Algalita, & The Plot that support our initiatives for environmentally sustainable service!

  • Plastic Free Coffee

    2 months into starting Anomaly, we very quickly made the conscious decision to switch to reusable aluminum cups for all cold drinks. Customers can take them home, wash them, or recycle them to prolong this cup's lifecycle :) For paper compostables, the best cup we found partners with the National Forest Foundation to plant a tree for every hundred cups that they produce.

  • Creative Reuse

    We are always finding new ways to reuse products that would end up in landfill. The more uses we can get out of one product, the slower the impact to the environment. Early on, we used to recut and join used cardboard we got from the community to make boxes. Take a look below at our early stage recylced boxes :)
