Starbucks

Huge corner location with big windows and lots of seats. They have the Clover Makers here for that extra shot of a good drip coffee.

Let’s just get this out of the way, it’s Starbucks coffee. It’s what you expect out of Starbucks coffee. Their product is the same at any establishment of theirs you go to BUT with that said, this has to be one of the nicest stores I’ve been to yet. Maybe it’s because it’s a part of the W Hotel or because it’s going to be the busiest one downtown come SXSW time, but they got this store up in a hurry. There’s ample seating, there’s a Starbucks Reserve area with their own Clover brewing system when apparently your mind is blown by the cup of coffee that’s made before your eyes. Atop of that, there’s a cool set up all around from their merchandise area all the way to the other side of the store, haha. This will probably make all the local coffee shops around kind of nervous because it’s a kind of a steal from their pocket of visitors who don’t know there’s a local shop just around the corner but maybe it’ll make other places come up with interesting ways to attract people into their doors. It’s worth a visit and an instagram pic to check it out.
Done.
