Broiler Bay is a local burger joint that serves juicy burgers, fries, shakes, and more! Despite their use of in-store reusable trays, their in-store and takeout service ware does not really differ. And unfortunately, their use of Styrofoam cups for milkshakes and lack of disposal options other than regular garbage earned them a 1 in all three categories. Here’s the breakdown:

In-Store Service Ware (Score: 1)

• Disposables: plastic utensils, plastic cups/lids/straws, coated paper plates, plastic sauce containers/packets, all burgers wrapped in foil paper

• Styrofoam: YES (milkshake cups)

Take-Out Service Ware (Score: 1)

• Same disposables as In-Store

• Paper bags

Disposal Options & Accessibility

• Only garbage available

Top 3 Next Steps

1. Eliminate Styrofoam use

2. Invest in composable service ware

3. Provide labelled and color-coded compost bins
