I'm not exactly partial to Starbucks either, but rather the concept of leaving the office to get coffee and relax. I usually rotate between a couple of local places. Whether it be Starbucks, Seattle's Best, The Coffee People, Tully's, Diedrich, etc., I think dropping a few bucks a day is money well spent.

As for the "burning the beans" comments above. I agree that their traditional roast coffee is over-roasted. However, they have carried light roast for years now - you just have to ask for it.
