Apparently someone just had a big bowl of stupid for breakfast at Starbucks. Starbucks have now become public lounges and "warming centers" for street people. Nice way to stick up for your employees....turn the frigging place into a Greyhound Bus Depot. And guess who gets to clean the toilets and pick up all the needles in the bathroom....the local starbucks workers or the geniuses at Headquarters in Seattle? Starbucks continues on with the tradition of bringing a little bit of Seattle to your neighborhood. And those patio areas are a great place to set up your tent. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/new-starbucks-policy-no-purchase-needed-sit-cafes-n875736

Kidding, right? Here, they just walk up and take people's orders. Police won't get involved. With this new policy what is Starbucks going to do? Nothing, other than replace the order. They've now gotten themselves in a crimp, because now they're not going to keep them out. I'm done with Starbucks. Used to buy in bulk at Costco since I don't like a lot of the crap they brew at the stores. Moved on to: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com And feel a bit better about drinking it.
It got to be complicated. If you go through the drive through and say "I would like a grande black." They say "who you callin black." Can't win.
Coffee made by Vets. They've got some funny vids on youtube as well. My nephew told me about them awhile back. Don't drink much coffee these days. Can't tolerate the caffeine .
