[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I miss cozy relaxing Starbucks.
I can get an iced coffee at Mickey Ds drive thru for 99 cents.[/quote]

Starbucks recently opened a new one in my neighborhood (Union Market) that, while not "cozy", I'd inviting and relaxing and has tons of seating and good lighting and good customer service. I actually to go there and "hang out" sometimes because it's pleasant inside. And I probably go there a lot more often than I would otherwise because it's nicer inside. There are multiple fancier chains in our neighborhood (a Blue Bottle, Maman, others) but I increasingly like the Starbucks more. The Blue Bottle is actually kind of cold inside, with minimal seating and very bright lighting -- it's fine, but I don't stick around. The Maman is good in theory until you get inside and realize half the tables are sticky, the AC is often out in the summer, and service is really slow. Most of the other options are inside something else, so not necessarily where I go if I'm looking for a "coffee shop" vibe. So surprisingly, I've been going to Starbucks a lot. And it pretty busy so it's not just me.[/quote]
