Starbucks

this starbucks is right around the corner from where i work. they have the same great coffee as all the other starbucks, but the employees make this location worth going to. sometimes there is a line, particularly in the morning around 8ish when everyone is going to work. there isnt really parking so it is best if you walk here.

It's starbucks. And it's a very consistent experience at that. The coffee is no better than it is at any other Starbucks... which is to say that it's comfortable, over-roasted, and not particularly inspiring. But the people at this location are friendly, energetic, and pleasant to deal with when you're looking for your morning joe. So I, as a creature of habit, will be here every once in a while... and can vouch for the Colorado Blvd. Starbucks to say... it's perfectly average.

Service is fine. I really like Coffee Bean better, to em, there drinks are not as sweet and loaded with sugar. This location seems to be very quick at getting orders completed. Still, Starbucks is overrated.

Starbucks is the biggest coffee joke this country has ever fallen victim to.
Absolutely ghastly quality of coffee made drinkable by enough sugary syrup and European sounding names like "Venti" and "frappucino".
All Starbucks being equally bad, this one has a great location - next to Barnes & Nobles book store. I don't know whether it's the proximity of the magazine rack or what, but this place is constantly crowded. Wait for your half-caf, non-fat, soy, no-foam chai latte usually takes just as long as time to say your order.
Unfortunately the place at night crawls with seedy characters and 20-something losers begging for spare change around the entrance. If you enjoy brief encounters with smoky transients on your way to get that caffeine fix - more power to you. I reccomend the Starbucks accross the street - less crowded.
