It is an adventure of taste. True. It really depends on who is making the coffee. Since I generally only patronize Starbucks when I'm on the road, I'm probably not visiting their best shops. And damn, now I need to go make a good cup of coffee. Mmm. She/Her/Hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. and personal preference too. Like say, I usually choose coffee beans that have lower acidity cos I don't like strong sourness taste at the back of my tongue. But someone else would prefer that instead. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ ᶠʳᵒⁿᵗ ᵗᵒʷᵃʳᵈ ᵉⁿᵉᵐʸ (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this. I’m loyal to Starbucks and there’s a huge difference between stores, with the ones in small towns, in grocery stores, or off major exits usually being the worst. There’s one in downtown Seattle that’s particularly good reality’s tight if the music is right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillieGOAT 5,272 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 This breaks my heart.. that’s a ton of jobs lost. This is further proof that COVID’s economic impact is going to decimate small business if it’s affecting a juggernaut like Starbucks this much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it ultimately comes down to the employees. She/Her/Hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hennies, clearly any of you who said things like that are not avid coffee drinker enough to criticize a coffee shop. Real ones not gonna add sugar in our coffee, we drunk it black. That way we can really taste the brew as it is intended. And if we want sweetness, we had cookies, stroop waffels, or cakes for that. Like, I am sorry, that kind of attitude bothers me so I need to put y'all in your place a bit. Go enjoy your frappe in silence Actually Starbucks is rated one of the worst coffees black according to people who actually give a **** about the taste of bitter bean water emma roberts is an abuser Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't mind it. Coffee is coffee, I went to small to big franchise for my cuppa when I was outside, and when I travels. I certainly don't feel above it at all. All I care is to get my shot of life elixir so I can function, especially in the morning, and midday.
