Student Union Cafe

Love them– they give me double shots of soy milk and don’t charge me extra. They have an organic coffee choice too. Bonus!

Well, it’s certainly not Starbucks, but when I am running a few minutes late it will do.
You can tell they definitely are giving it their all with all their drink suggestion posters… someone’s creative juices are flowing, but as a Starbucks snob, it’s just not the same. You’ve got the basic syrup flavors, so if you’ve got a hankering for a white mocha or cinnamon dolce latte, they’ve got you covered. Don’t expect to see any Starbucks promotional drinks offered here.
I will say their food offerings rival those of which you’d find at your neighborhood store. From cheesecake to locally crafted cookies, you’ll probably be able to find something to nibble on.
Overall, it will do in a pinch, but I’d rather wake up a couple minutes earlier to visit my favorite baristas at the Greenmount store off of I-​64.

Coffee is hot and fresh. Not truly a Starbucks, but has similar drinks. The ladies here can be quite rude. I had asked about the date on a sandwich, which was dated from the day before. I asked if it was past the selling date, to which they informed me it was not. They have 3 days to sell it from date of sticker. I said okay, fine and proceeded to eat it while waiting for the education office to open up. Well it was stale and nasty. The 2 women commenced to make fun of me as I sat there in the café. I may not speak Pilipino but I know you were making fun of me, since you were pointing and laughing at me. I ate half y sandwich and threw the other half away. The drinks here are okay, but go to Starbucks if you want the real thing. None the less it is convenient.

The one and only Starbucks on base. Otherwise you would have to go to the one on Greenmount which is a bit of a drive, but a good one. The great thing about this is that (we) offer fresh sandwiches and salads everyday. Do not forget to see what we have as the soup of the day.
I am a bit partial to the place since I work there but the manager is very receptive when it comes to recommendations.
There are also a lot of specials that will be coming up.

Same price as Starbucks, not as many choices but it beats me running to O’Fallon for my pumpkin spice latte. They do have desserts and wraps as well. This is located next to the Family Readiness Center and the Post Office. Cute set up for a base coffee shop.
