    Do you love or hate Starbucks?

    I like them. Everyone loves to hate them but they offer a decent quality product in a good atmosphere. People love to hate the successful guy.

        You can't hate Starbucks,they have the best coffee ever,unless,you are tired of the trend.
        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

              I like my coffee like I like my men - hot and black.

                I can't say that I love them... But I go there a lot. It seems like the most convenient place to go, even if there is a mile long line.

                Maybe they spike the coffee so even if you hate it you still go because you are addicted to something about it... Kinda like my ex boyfriend... anyway, that's my 2 cents

                    Yeah, I can relate to the "love hate" thing. I can't stand the fact that they are everywhere, and buying up the smaller companies (like Seattle's Best and Torrefazione). But I enjoy their stuff - primarily americanos, coffee and the occasional latte.

                        US forgot a taste of a real good brewed coffee
                        starbacks buys cheapest coffe around and sells it for premiums because they're conviently located everywehere.

                        i just hate their coffee, the success story all good.

                                You know what i think? I think they spike it with caffeine to get you hooked. So even if you don't like it, you still go there! I'm going to the press with this.

                                      I love Starbucks. Often times I'll get updates ready at home before going to bed and then get up in the morning and go to Starbucks, where I'll drink coffee while uploading on the T-Mobile Hotspot. It's a great atmosphere.

                                              I agree the Peet's does rock, but there's only a few around the Portland area. I try to go out of my way to visit whenever possible, but it's hard when there's 10 Starbucks within a 2 mile radius. Tully's is also decent. I was also a fan of Deidrich Coffee from Orange County, CA.

                                              You can't really say that Starbuck's sells crap coffee. I mean they carry high end stuff like Jamaican Blue Mountain, Ethiopian Harrar, etc. The main problem is that their traditional blends are roasted to fuck and back. They tend to be harsh and acidic.

Because they are a large chain the quality of the employees is equal to the minimum wage worker you find at McDonalds or any other fast food chain, only with a bigger attitude problem. They are always messing up my drink and I seldom get what I pay for. The way these kids cheat you on shots of espresso you think they paid the raw material cost out of their own pockets.

                                                                                            Why I go back? Convenience and lack of options. I don't have alot of time in the day to go somewhere and stand in line, Starbucks is the only drive through espresso place around in sunny hot FL. Krispy Creme makes a damn good coffee, but they are too far out of the way.

                                                                                            Makes me realize how spoiled I was in olympia.

                                                                                                I don't go for the weird ass caramel chocolate milkshake stuff they sell though... Just black dark roast, thanks.

                                                                                                I was in California a couple of weeks ago though, and the Starbucks there sucked ass compared to Vancouver. No wonder you guys don't like it, they didn't have any of the roasts they sell up here!

                                                                                                  Good marketing apparently makes people like something they wouldn't care about before.

                                                                                                  I prefer less burnt coffee. And for donuts, Krispy Kreme tastes no different than the kind of donuts you get at the local grocery store. I prefer donuts from real donut shops that taste like they've been made their and not bought from a package of donuts in the grocery store. And the coffee is better at donut shops than at Starbucks too, lol.
