One Starbucks is openning at the 1st floor of my office building,which took the place of a Portugal restaurant.After my roughly count,there's more than 5 Starbucks around my office,say within half mile way.So,how about your place?

Hi, here in UK where I live the nearest Starbucks is about a 20-30 minute drive at The Metro Centre - a large shopping centre (mall). That is why i do not go very often. I go whenever I am at the Metro Centre because it is a treat. It is a good job that there are not any Starbucks closer to me or I would never be out of the place. I have heard a rumour of one coming to my local town but I am not sure if it is true or not.

No because I said I drink coffee just not very often. I said that I go to Starbucks when I have the chance. It is too far away to go very often. Plus I also said that if there was a one nearer I would never be out so Im very confused as to why you would think I do not drink coffe or like Starbucks.

My place is far away from civilization. Heehee. Kidding aside, there's none. I wish there is one near but then it's not that feasible to do...When I get a job I think there will be around 3 around the vicinity, wherever I get my application accepted to.

I live in a small town and we don’t have any Starbucks around us. A new shopping mall with many outlets and cinemas started business on the last day of last month, August. The first Starbucks is located at the left corner of the ground floor of the new building. It’s quite near to my house and it takes me only 7 minutes drive to reach there. When passing by in the car I could see many customers enjoy having coffee and surfing net there in the meantime. I haven’t visited it yet as it’s quite crowded during the first few days. posting and have a nice day.

Well,the news,say Starbucks newly opened near your home,will likely absorb crowd of people just as you mentioned.The situation is the same in my city.I think there're some kinda promotions or some free coupond when opening.It's be reasonale to visit it one or two weeks later.Enjoy everyday here in mylot.Thanks for your reply.

Well since this is a business district there are around 7-10 I mean within half a mile. There is one inside this building. Another on the building next to us. One at the building at the back. Around 4 in the surrounding streets here. I'm not a coffee drinker though.

There is one Starbucks in my hometown that I know of, maybe two of them, I don't know, but I know there is one at the mall. I don't go there because I don't like their coffee. I would much rather go to The Second Cup, for my coffee,. They also have internet access, and I spend my days there drinking coffee, and using their computers.
