Starbucks Coffee

Starbucks coffee is not the ideal place to go for a normal cup of coffee. However, this is not a bad thing. I first started going to Starbucks as soon as I became a student, I usually have iced mochas or vanilla fraps. Starbucks isn't the best for sandwiches (although they are trying to improve this, they do listen to customers), as the sandwiches they currently have are quite expensive and don't look very appetizing, the sweet stuff is okay, but not exactly worth the expense. The reason I go to starbucks, is firstly the vast choice of all the different types of drinks you can get. On a freezing cold day you can get a lovely steaming ...  Read the complete review

Starbucks is the market domination coffee shop in the United States, but it doesn't mean it is the best. There are smaller, lesser known chains that are not nationwide, but do provide better coffee. However, in the United States, you can find a Starbucks everywhere you go. They just seem to pop up! They are usually located in shopping malls or shopping centers, where there are a lot of stores around and you can go somewhere to sit and refuel.

I used to go there and my order was "Can I ...  Read the complete review

starbucks coffee house is a really nice place to sit and enjoy a drink whilst you are out shopping. its comfortable and stylish. they offer a wide variety of drinks so its not just coffee which some people may think.you can also buy snacks such as sanwiches and cakes which are of a high standard. the only problem with this shop are that the prices are quite high and in my opinion quite overpriced however the chocolate frapacinos are absolutely gorgeous but you have to get it with extra cream and chocolate sprinkles. they also sell lovely chocolate chip shortcakes which are really nice they melt in your mouth. if you are very fond of the coffee they sell it in packets so ...  Read the complete review

I never got the starbucks crush that everyone else seemed to get, maybe that was because i'm not a great coffee fan but the other half is. So one day whilst out shopping he dragged me in and I had a toffee hot chocolate...YUM!! This was absolutely beautiful, never tasted anything like it and I was finally won over by it, also in the summer the have frappuccinos in different flavours which is nice to go in and have a seat and a nice cold refreshing drink. On top of this you can also buy sandwiches, rolls, biscuits, cakes etc. so you can grab something to eat whilst you chill out. It can be quite pricey though so it's not somewhere I go that often and the queues are always ...  Read the complete review

Many years ago, I heard that American coffee taste terrible hence they need to change the taste and outlook . This is the begining of what it was known as Designer coffee. The days where coffee is enjoyed for its wholesome flavour, the aroma and the romantic stories of its origin is somehow diminishing. Since American coffee outlet like Starbucks have taken the world by storm, starbucks in every corner of the world, ( I saw a starbuck cafe right in front of the Forbidden city in Beijing, the irony of new vs old ). What are designer coffee? To me, its a blend of coffee with other non coffee flavouring like vanilla, cocoa and caramel. Names like ...  Read the complete review
