Starbucks is a huge coffee chain originally started in the USA. Now in the UK and especially in London there are branches every few meters. I am a huge Starbucks fan for a special treat, as a lot of their drinks are full of naughty calories, and also attack my bank balance hugely. There are 3 sizes, tall, grande and venti. Venti is only for the hardcore fans with large stomachs, it really is absolutely massive. Tall is more than adequate to fill your bladder in no time. Drinks cost between £2.10 and £4. You can buy a range of hot or cold drinks, any drink can have syrup added to it, like caramel, chocolate or hazelnut. You can also add ...  Read the complete review

Well what can I say - If you've never been you must! Starbucks is coffee at it's best. Restaurant -------------- The Restaurants are all lovely with mostly comfortable seating generally (some smaller ones can't fit in lots of comfy chairs), our main one is in the upstairs of a New Look Shop. The restaurants are generally clean and well looked after, I always find they have a lovely atmosphere with large pictures on the walls. The counter is full of nice cake and snack goodies that I can't resist. They have a good selection of cakes/pastries and sandwhiches/panini's at reasonable prices. Once you've made your order you move to one side and wait for ...  Read the complete review

I'm definitely a Starbucks girl. On the rare occasion that I go to a different coffee shop, I sit there thinking 'this coffee's not as good as Starbucks' and wishing I was in my favourite haunt. Starbucks offer a vast range of hot drinks- two choices of filter coffee, latte, cappucino, mocha, hot chocolate, caramel macchiato, espresso as well as their legendary range of iced frappucinos. I'm a bit of a coffee tart, my favourite one week will be out of favour the next. My current favourite is a skinny decaf mocha as I'm currently breast feeding. I always go for a Grande (medium) size as you get two shots of coffee in a Grande, which for me is the ...  Read the complete review

Starbucks is an American Coffee chain that has really flourished since opening numerous branches within England. The branch has an American 'feel' to it, with loads of coffee related decorations within each outlet. There are a wide range of coffees to choose from, even ranging from hot or cold drinks. There are regular coffee types availiable, such as Lattes, Americanos, Cappuccinos etc, but there are also some more unorthadox flavours that are run at different times (for example, orange and chocolate, banana and toffee) are a couple of flavours I have seen. But perhaps my favourite type of drink at starbucks are the cold, almost milkshake type ...  Read the complete review

Star bucks is fairly expensive in terms of the price of a basic cup of coffee although they do offer free refills (not many people know this). There is not a massive selection of savoury food but they do have an array of cakes and other sweet backed products. Despite these bad points and the coffee not being out of this world, I really like Star Bucks. Being a chain they are all almost identical inside with a selection of café style table and chairs and soft seating areas with sofas, arm chars and stools. Star Bucks has a very relaxing air about it, there are no bright lights and the atmosphere is cosy. The section of coffees they have on offer is ...  Read the complete review
