All Starbucks are the same. Their drinks are overpriced and their coffees are dreadful, having been brewed from over roasted beans. Essentially, Starbucks coffee beans are burned. Starbucks' coffees contains rancid oils and are therefore toxic. Some people can tolerate this because they are young, healthy and their organs (bowel, liver and kidneys for instance) are good at eliminating toxins. Regardless, I'm pleased so many people enjoy Starbucks, because it keeps them from crowding other coffee establishments. Starbucks is primarily about lifestyle; not coffee. People will, it seems, pay dearly for a lifestyle. Smokers are among this group.
P.S. In fairness to Starbucks, there are other establishments having equally bad, unhealthy, coffee. That would now include McDonalds and anyone selling Seattle's Best. They have simply copied what they noticed has worked for Starbucks; burned beans. Vendome Cafe, would be one more example. There are more.
