i go by this starbucks 5-6 days a week mornings and i am always saddened and angered by the amount of filth this place generates. every morning 95% of the time there is garbage strewn on the curbs and sidewalks especially cigarette butts from the 3 or 4 habitual non stop smokers who inhabit the place and don't care about the litter they create.
i get that there is garbage from other restaurants too because people pick up their dominos from across the road and then grab a latte and sit on the bench provided by starbucks. but then they leave it all to rot on the spot.not a single garbage can around so just drop and go.
there are times when staff sweep. but as the attached pictures show they disgrace themselves pushing their garbage onto the street. shameful. and if like the other day when there were 3-4 pizza boxes in the gutter and maybe they aren't starbucks garbage perse it would be a good corporate neighbour thing to do to make nice for your customers anyhow.
i have called starbucks, i text the local manager pictures almost daily and once in a while there is a blitz but still the place is a crap can. i have called the city and have complained to the local councilor. now yelp.
starbucks needs to take responsibility. clean up after your clientele, put some garbage cans out, ask the smokers to respect the grounds and most of all don't foist your store generated crud on the city.
