Yes, I was going to mention that one too. Very tasty.
Yes, Starbucks is ok, but only in small doses. I don't often go in them, but if I do, there is guaranteed to be either a bunch of tweens occupying the sofas, a couple of mothers with screaming kids, the bloke with the widescreen laptop and the person in a suede jacket and a scarf reading a book, who's probably been sitting there for months!

I have been gradually overcoming my Starbucks addiction (prefer Cafe Nero but Starbucks my bus stop for old work was right outside Starbucks). Saying that you don't seem to be able to walk for more than 2 minutes in Manchester without passing a coffee shop!
The staff in my usual one were lovely and used to have my coffee made for me before i even got to the counter sometimes. One of them mentioned to me another customer had told him she must spend about �40.00 in there every month on coffee. I was incredulous until I added it up and reckoned I spent that or more!!!
My boss used to have a venti triple shot everyday, sometimes a few and started having panic attacks and chest pains!!! That put me off and only go in every now and again now.

I detest Starbucks. I'm deeply wary of any organisation that adds to the creeping homogenisation of our high streets. Chains are the pits - they erode difference, variation, surprise, all things that make life that little bit richer, better and more enjoyable, and in their place promote predictability, sameness, lazy choices and lack of discovery.
Those "political" gripes aside, I just don't think Starbucks is very good. Their coffee is at best okay, and the prices are silly. And I'm betting that at least half the people who regularly use it are doing it more as a sort of lifestyle statement rather than actually wanting some overpriced hot brown liquid. These artfully flustered-looking types arriving at their desks, clutching their big cardboard cups and saying twittery melodramatic stuff like "Oooh I need my caffeine injection!" - it's all a big stupid put-on. They could of course easily make their own at home and drink it before leaving the house, but that wouldn't be in line with the silly, false but fashionable "I don't have time for that" attitude that currently prevails.
No - it's cheaper, better, independent coffee houses for me, every time. And there are plenty of them without having to leave the UK to find them.
