Starbucks has such an interesting look, always enjoy going and being in that aroma. There specialty coffee is pretty expensive but most of them are worth it.

Decent coffee and nice enough staff – you know exactly what you’re going to get with a Starbucks.

So I am strolling along Princes St. with my fiance on a blissful Wintery evening in unarguably one of the most beautiful cities in Britain.
We decide that there would be nothing better to warm us up and enhance our relaxing evening then a beautiful hot drink made lovingly by the hands of one of Starbucks excellent baristas.
The outside appearance of the Edinburgh-Princes St. branch of Starbucks isn't particularly enticing, with it being based on the first floor and having only a small door leading up a set of stairs with minimal advertisement present.
However, the minute you begin ascending these stairs, you are greeted by Starbucks' own divine smell. A mix of; blends of freshly ground coffee, a sweet confectionary smell generated by gorgeous cakes and glistening tray-bakes (and those who insist on overloading their drink with sugar) that cannot be replicated out-with Starbucks and a subtle, though reassuring smell of clean.
Upon entering you will discover that it is actually a very large branch, expanding a length that of a warehouse (or so it seems) and then having further more seating out of view up at the back.
The experience is exactly what I expect from Starbucks:
-The staff (as always) are extremely helpful, skilled and very friendly.
-There is a good proportion of sofa/comfy seats available.
-The tables are cleared very efficiently and quickly, and the toilets are sparkling clean.
-The drinks were made beautifully and I might add, were amazing.
-The music level was just right for audibility without dominating.
-The atmosphere is just right. Relaxing, though functional.
-The customer base is very cosmopolitan; students, tourists, couples, business people.
-The merchandise selection is very good, with most if not all of the starbucks product range, displayed attractively.
-This branch is very lucky in that it has stunning views of the world famous Edinburgh castle!
So we sat, and watched the dramatic red sun silhouette the elegant lit-up castle enjoying our wonderful hot drinks. Granted, some of Starbucks' prices may be rather "up there"...
But you are paying for so much more then just a drink!

I go to Starbucks often, but my favorite was one in Downtown Liverpool. It had a large restraunt area with sofa's and big chairs. You could get a drink and get free refills on it. I have never seen that at a Starbucks before, I couldn't imagine they would do that. The staff who were pretty young were very respectful of me and I enjoyed that.

I have been to Starbucks all over the world, I love their coffee. I find their sandwiches very expensive, but once again they taste fantastic. I do find that if you pay by card they have to be one of the only shops with the slowest card machines in the world, and I wish that they brought into operation the Starbucks top-up cards like they do in America/Canada. They could do with investing in some new furniture in some of the busy Starbucks on the outskirts of London or buy quality furniture rather than what looks best to some extent of course, best thing with Starbucks is that you know what you can have before you get there kind of thing. Although I wish they brought strawberry lemonade out in the UK for those hot summer drives, and a drive through wouldn't go a miss either

I love Starbucks and I love the caramel frappucino, that's the best thing ever. They have really good coffes and drinks and they sell cups. Shirts and the Starbucks in my town it has sofas and chairs and tables and you can study and read and everything, it's good.

I boycot Starbucks when shopping in Hitchin because it was (possibly still is) the coffee shop with the worst loos. Also, the tables and floor are usually littered and sticky.
<br/>
<br/>However, with a choice of 8 coffee shops and several restaurants in and around the market square, who needs Starbucks?
