New Starbucks location off of Tyvola Rd where the old Hornets coliseum used to sit. This location has a drive-thru window and ample parking. It's pretty spacious inside with lots of tables and chairs to hang out in.
It is new construction so it's hard to get away from the whole "box" feeling and there aren't any unique nooks or old fireplaces to hang around by, but it's definitely got a nice feel with large artwork on the right and high/airy ceilings. The drive thru window is behind the main counter... feels almost like a galley kitchen but it allows the line to from from the back and moves forward toward the front of the store. It's a nice set up since the pickup is near the door anyway for online orders and whatnot.
Looks like they've revamped their snack menu as well....I didn't partake in food this go around, but the breakfast sandwiches look more enticing instead of what they used to be.
Staff was friendly, it wasn't slammed when we came on a Sunday afternoon so it was pretty relaxed.
There's a small outdoor patio with tables and umbrellas... ready for some spring weather.
