The Only Starbucks In The City?

Posted by Columbo
May 16, 2007

I’m no Starbucks hater, but don’t the people who frequent the Starbucks at 11th ST between E & F know there are tons of other coffee shops around? Good for this location that it gets such great business, not sure this blogger would wait in a line that went out the door almost every morning though.

they probably have great baristas…it’s the relationship…i feel like i’m cheating on mine when i don’t go to my regular starbucks.

Overheard; that’s an interesting point, and one I had not considered. I used to feel that way about my barber. Once she moved out of town, I pretty much just stopped getting haircuts.

Had I thought of your point, my post would have probably been less snarky too. Thanks!

I’m there every morning in line on my way to 1001 Penna Ave NW.

I don’t think the baristas at this S’bucks could say much about anyone cheating on them — they’re clearing seeing/involved with a lot of other customers!

I’ve been to that Starbucks and it’s a very shallow store. The distance from the start of the line to the door is about half the distance of what it is at the 7th and H Starbucks.

My guess is that the line is about as many people deep at that time of day at both Starbucks.

the line may always be out the door, but the service is pretty friggin rapid. kudos to that
