"My" Starbucks
We should all post photos of "our" Starbucks and see if anyone can tell one from another. OK, this customer is wearing a jacket, so it must be in a cold weather climate. That really narrows it down.
Jack, I think that the barista recognizes you and probably knows just what you will order! I usually receive Starbucks gift cards to use but unless I am traveling my coffee comes from the home machine(s).
I patronize a few which all look remarkably different. One is the size of a shoebox, and one is sprawling with space and even has a coffee bar where customers sit and read the paper. Btw, re: GF - yes, it is limiting! Imagine going to the ballpark and not having a hotdog or beer. **sniff**
I don't drink coffee so don't go in to Starbucks much. They just yesterday started converting an old, local bank building to Starbucks - hope it doesn't hurt the indie shops too much.
I haven't been in a Starbucks for years. So, I wouldn't know one from another anyway. I think this shot was taken in Naples, Florida during a cold spell and that's why the guy is wearing a jacket. Am I brilliant or what?
People are still wearing scarves and heavier winter jackets at MY Starbucks. And that guy doesn't work at MY Starbucks and the layout is different and....
I will get a photo of My Starbucks. I visit them everywhere in my travels. I have tried to only buy from local coffee house. But when it comes to coffee I like it my way and I found too often my latte was not the way I like it when I go to local shops. I get consistent latte's at every Starbucks I've visited.
We don't have them here! But i suppose people would look the same if it were the case. It is still quite cold around here! Thanks for sharing your beautiful pic, Jack;o)

They do all look the same!
The only one I ever saw was inside the big Kroger's grocery store. It was never busy. It disappeared one day.
Hmmmm....My Starbucks would be full of people in parkas and toques;)
But yes, looks exactly the same otherwise!

Bises,

I would post a pic of the one near my house, but it closed last year :(
Hehe! I does look familiar. :)
I rarely go to Starbucks. I prefer our local chain, Cups.
But I agree, they all pretty much look the same.

Ha, we don't have them here!
Our nearest Starbucks is down in Northampton. I don't mind because I don't like their coffee - tastes bitter.
We have a few independent coffee places around that we like.
Mixed feelings about Starbucks invading Europe but I go there all the same.
They do rather look the same, but I admit I love a Starbucks macchiato every now and again.

No Starbucks here, Jack! Just good Italian coffee in a bar. I have to say tho when I'm in America I couldn't live without Starbucks.
but...there are no "Starbucks"here in Luxembourg! :(
