Starbeans Cafe

The Starbeans Cafe is a shop in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga owned by Professor E. Gadd. It is located in Beanbean Castle Town. The shop's Beanbean Machine utilizes a special StarB System in which customers bring various Beans to expand the menu with freshly-made Bean Juice. Each drink boosts a different stat permanently and requires a certain number of Beans. There are 7 different flavors. If all 7 drinks are made at least once, E. Gadd will put up a picture of himself next to the counter for the rest of the game.

Bean Juice

 * Woohoo Blend – For 25 Woo Beans, this drink boosts a character's HP by 4.
 * Hoohoo Blend – 25 Hoo Beans result in a drink that raises a character's BP by 4.
 * Chuckle Blend – By grinding 25 Chuckle Beans, the Bros. can make a drink that raises Speed by 4.
 * Teehee Blend – If 25 Hee Beans are put in the machine, the result is a drink that boosts Stache by 4.
 * Hoolumbian – By combining 15 Woo Beans and 10 Hoo Beans, this drink can raise POW by 4.
 * Chuckoccino – 15 Woo Beans and 10 Chuckle Beans make a drink that raises DEF by 4.
 * Teeheespresso – The most powerful drink is made with 15 Woo Beans and 10 Hee Beans. It raises a random stat by 6 points.

Special Items
Every time a drink is mixed that hasn't been made before, Professor E. Gadd will come and give Mario and Luigi one of his inventions, usually coupled with a humorous scene. These secret items can be equipped in the extra equipment slot under Clothes and Badges. Like Clothes and Badges, each character can only equip one item.

There are seven types of Bean Juice, and thus, seven items that can be equipped to Mario or Luigi. They are given out in a set order, listed below, regardless of the order the drinks are made. With the exception of the Excite Spring, Power Grip, and Cobalt Necktie, every Accessory takes effect to both characters, as long as the characters are together.
 * Greed Wallet – Double the coins you get from monsters! (Double-Up Coin)
 * Bonus Ring – Don't lose HP in battle for an EXP bonus! (Double-Up EXP)
 * Excite Spring – Hold the button to float on defense! (Floating Jump)
 * Great Force – Double the damage you give AND take! (Rough Battle)
 * Power Grip – Never drop the Hammerhead on defense! (Hammer Grip)
 * Cobalt Necktie – Double your Stache points! (Shining Stache)
 * Game Boy Horror SP – Defeat foes and always get rare items! (Rare Itemizer)

If a drink is made that has already been made before, or if the brothers have received all seven items, they can still continue to make Bean Juice, but only the drink is received.

Trivia

 * The name of the cafe itself is based off the real-life Starbucks. The Prima Games guide even calls the establishment "a" Starbeans, further connecting it to the restaurant franchise. Also, three of the drinks served at the cafe have names based off real varieties of coffee: Hoolumbian, Chuckoccino, and Teeheespresso are named for the Colombian, Cappuccino, and Espresso coffees respectively.
 * Wario, Fox McCloud, Link, Captain Olimar, Samus Aran, and even an Excitebiker were each planned to make appearances and taste drinks, while Professor E. Gadd was only planned to appear once. These cameos were removed to expand E. Gadd's role. Each gift was also renamed (except the Excite Spring) to loosen the connection to each character, and most of the item sprites appear to remain the same.
 * In the Japanese version of the game, icons appear next to drinks Mario and Luigi already made on the drink menu.
 * The music played when the drink menu appears is a cover of Mario's Pad's music from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.
