I wanted a pastry for breakfast (it's a European thing) so Starbucks was out of the question. Perhaps because it was during slow season (summer semester) or after 10 am, the pastries in the window looked a bit sad, but I was desperate. I got a strudel (I had a bad case of nostalgia), and was in for a rude awakening (that works just like coffee, but without the caffeine jitters): Toto, we're not in Kansas, I mean Europe, any more. Moral of the story: when in America, eat pie. Or donuts. With that said, the coffee shop is across from CSN West Charleston and has a drive thru, so I can understand why the quality of their strudel may not be much of a concern.
