Starbeans Cafe is a shop in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its 3DS remake. It is located in Beanbean Castle Town. The shop's Beanbean Machine[1] utilizes a special StarB System in which customers bring various beans to expand the menu with freshly-made Bean Juice.[2] Each drink boosts a different stat permanently and requires a certain number of beans. The "cafe's owner"[3] mixes drinks at the cost of the customer's beans, although the actual owner of the establishment is Professor E. Gadd.

There are seven different flavors of Bean Juice to create. Making each one for the first time is accompanied by a cutscene featuring E. Gadd. Wario, Fox McCloud, Link, Captain Olimar, Samus Aran, and an Excitebike Racer were originally planned to appear in these cutscenes as cameo appearances, whereas E. Gadd was only supposed to appear once. If all seven drinks are made at least once, E. Gadd will put up a picture of himself next to the counter for the remainder of the game. In the Japanese version of the game and all versions of its remake, icons appear next to drinks the player has already made on the drink menu.

The name of the cafe itself is based on the real-life Starbucks chain of coffee shops. The Prima Games guide for the game calls the establishment "a" Starbeans, further connecting it to the restaurant franchise.[4] Three of the drinks served at the cafe have names based on real varieties of coffee: the Hoolumbian, Chuckoccino, and Teeheespresso are named for the Colombian, cappuccino, and espresso coffees respectively.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, the number of beans required per blend is lower, but the effect of each blend has also been reduced. In the Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser campaign, it is revealed that E. Gadd created Starbeans as secondary funding for his ghost research. E. Gadd mindlessly admitted this while rambling to Captain Goomba and his soldiers, who had already left.

Special Items

Every time a drink that has not been made before is created, Professor E. Gadd will enter the cafe and give Mario and Luigi one of his inventions, usually coupled with a humorous scene. These items can be equipped in the extra equipment slot under Clothes and Badges. As with Clothes and Badges, each of the brothers can only equip one of these items at a time.

There are seven types of Bean Juice and thus seven items that Mario or Luigi can equip. They are given out in a set order, listed below, regardless of the order the drinks are made in. With the exception of the Excite Spring, Power Grip, and Cobalt Necktie, every Accessory affects both brothers, as long as they are together. 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 they only obtain the drink itself.
