I will never understand people who get drip coffee at Starbucks... back when I got things from there it would just be the occasional over the top milk shake. Starbucks legitimately has the tools to produce ridiculous drinks with far less hassle then it'd take at home.
I don't like candy bars or milkshakes. If I'm going to a Starbucks its at 3am in an airport, it's the ONLY option, thus I'm willing to tolerate burnt to fuck drip coffee.
Is their coffee much more than $2? Last I remember, it wasn’t THAT expensive considering it isn’t shit coffee like a Burger King/McDonalds or etc.
Or by drip do you mean their like clover machine fancy coffees? I never bothered with those so idk how much that was.
McDonalds coffee is decent, at least in Canada.
Tim Horton's terrible.
2.95 for a default size black coffee at the one closest to me right now
Ok but what is the default size? And where-ish are you? In the Starbucks app, it defaults to Grande for me and that is $3.45.
A Tall is $3.25.
A Short is $3.15.
This is in Northern California.
Grande, northeast Ohio
It's like drinking Bud Light at a bar. The beer isn't the product, the venue is.
Yeah the only Starbucks in my area I'll go into is the reserve but that's because it's just really cool in there. If I want a busy environment that feels like a steampunk world then it's the place to be. Coffee there still sucks tho and even with the cool location I'm still only in there maybe a couple times a year
I avoid Starbucks for all kinds of reasons but can't say it's 100% abstention. Sometimes it's just a little too convenient for that overpriced slop. Sometimes called Charbucks because of how the coffee is always burnt.
