| - Located across the street from UNLV, there's this Starbucks. Located within UNLV, there's another Starbucks. A couple more blocks down the road, there's another Starbucks. They're not too hard to find. Their coffee is exactly what you'd get at any other location.
I am reviewing this place as a means of a place to study. Say what you must about Starbucks coffee, but when I need to study, I'm not too picky on flavor or quality. I just want my caffeine, a somewhat relaxed ambiance, and music mellow enough for me to drown out, yet enjoy. This Starbucks tends to pull that off. I tried studying at the nearby Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, but their choice of music is too upbeat for me to focus, like a mainstream radio station.
This Starbucks is a quaint little place. There are 4 tables inside that can seat 2 people, 1 table that can seat 4, and one large table that can seat around 6. There are a few lounging chairs about, if that's what you're looking for. Outside are many more tables, which are practically unusable during the summer because of the heat. Each table should have an outlet somewhere nearby if you have a laptop that needs juice. Plus, you do get free Wi-Fi here nowadays.
Be aware, that this place does fill up during peak hours. You might not be able to get a table at this time. I tend to go to this place whenever I'm tired of sitting in the Lied Library to study. I practically live in that library during a heavy semester, so I do need an occasional change of scenery.
Staff is friendly, caffeine is present, and the music is good. I can't complain about this place. I'm a fan.
