Is Starbucks premium anymore or has it become downscale?

I hate their coffee but love the frapps. I also had the shaken oat cinnamon apple thing for xmas and it was delightful.

I wish we had more choices in the suburbs!

The thing is, I hear great things about McDonald's coffee!

I love McD coffee!

The only thing I buy are the egg bites if I’m pressed for time. My local Starbucks is dated and gross. It’s depressing.
