‘Let’s Get Sippin’ is another kid pleasing option we tried the following week after school pick up and before a long list of extracurricular activities.

They also have loaded protein smoothies on the menu and loaded nutrition teas in flavours like killer python and nerds that make my mouth tingle just thinking about them.
We will be back if I can tear myself away from some other local favourites long enough including:
