First, let me just say that I like Starbucks and that I'm amazed how they manage to create good quality product consistently across thousands of stores. This store is no exception: Their barristas know how make a good drink.
However, Starbucks is more than a coffee shop. To me, it has become my boardroom and my office. And for a coffee shop to fulfill this function, they need to have a decent Internet connection.
Alas, here, WIFI Internet hardly ever works. On a few occasions I'd come and get my drink and a scone, sit at a table and pop my laptop open only to realize that I wouldn't be able to do much work that day. So after a while I started checking the WiFi connection BEFORE ordering the drink. If it was down, out the door I would go and drive 200 meters to a Country Style just south of there. And now, when I'm in the area, I don't even go to this Starbucks anymore.
