The student's response during CERES' soft opening has been phenomenal, with many praising the Coffee Shop's convenience, quality, and innovative approach.
David Buehrer, a U.S. Barista Championship Finalist, shared his enthusiasm: "As a contributor to CERES, I'm really happy with how tasty and consistent the drinks are from our friendly robot barista!"
"We are proud to serve such a prestigious institution," Cai continued. "Whether it's a late-night study session or a quick caffeine fix between classes, CERES meets the coffee needs of students and faculty anytime, day or night."
Sustainability at the Core
