This place gets hit hard. I don't even like Starbucks, but the only other reasonable breakfast possibility here is McDonald's, which should come with a disclaimer from the General Surgeon.
To the Express Breakfast deal I went: 1 medium coffee, any pastry and a piece of fruit. $7. In Vegas that feels like a crazy deal. Add a dollar and you can swap the pastry for oatmeal. I've got a box of oatmeal at home, 8 packets for $2, but for Vegas this bfast combo was still pretty extraordinary.
The house always wins, and Starbucks is making a killing. But when I dropped my coffee lid and went to the bar to get another, the kind older guy on the other side offered to top off my decaf. What a sweetie.
