I go to a Starbucks that's on the way to work every morning.  It's an awful experience!  I never know what I'm going to get.  To start with, the coffee is not that great, and it's pricey.  The only thing that Starbucks offers is convenience.  It seems like there's a Starbucks at every major street corner.

The service is very inconsistent and unpredictable.  Sometimes I get in line with 2 people, and it takes forever to get to the front of the line.  Sometimes I get in line with 12 people, and it moves very quickly.  It all depends on who's behind the counter.  Starbucks also sells stainless...
