bustero Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 quickly they know how to serve expresso based coffee drinks consistently in multiple locations Quote Link to comment
jimithing Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 i'd rather drink coffe in figaro or seattle's, the coffee in starbucks doesnt have consistency, sometimes it's good somestimes it tastes like plastic Quote Link to comment
kinetskiboy Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 i prefer seattle's or san fran coffee than starbucks Quote Link to comment
colwyn99 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Personally, I prefer Seattle's Best. However, I think Starbucks is a hit because of the following: a) offers an alternative to smokey bars & dark places to meet up with friends they're almost everywhere! c) offers an alternative to beer / alcoholic drinks that is "cool" d) you can read, work or study there without being disturbed by the staff Just my thoughts... :cool: Quote Link to comment
Emile Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 i like starbucks not because of their coffee.. their coffee's good but not that good for me to prefer it over the others... what i like about starbucks is the place itself... especially when i'm cramming for my exams... i can stay there and really have a quality time studying... yes, the place is noisy but the noise is at a decent level where you can still concentrate on whatever you're doin... at the same time, i can enjoy good music.. and have a nice cup of coffee...

Mike Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 A secret ingredient that makes you forget you're spending a hundred bucks for a cup of coffee. Quote Link to comment
LovenFaith Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 ts the place that makes you ignore the figures in your bill. Quote Link to comment
freedom99 Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Eh mahilig kasi ang pinoy maki-uso kahit mahal basta in siya, ayos lang sa kanya. Pero i love coffee...kahit 3 in 1 pa yan or instant or barako o sa starbucks o san pa. Quote Link to comment
propaganda Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Nothing really. It just so happens there's a Starbucks at every corner. I'd go for San Fran's Mo Mocha anytime. Quote Link to comment

diskette Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 i dont like starbucks. i feel, it's a waste of money. Quote Link to comment
Zerreit Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Like any franchise from the U.S., it's popular because pinoys think it's cool and would make them cool if they hang out there. Starbucks cater to the preppier, younger market here. Other coffee places cater to different markets. Quote Link to comment
Guest gorgeous_23 Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 naks.... i dont drink coffee but if its starbucks... putcha, ansarap.... Quote Link to comment
skitz Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 What's so special about Starbucks? NOTHING! Except that you get to spend 5 times more than what those cups of coffee are really worth. But hey, it's a free country... spend your money the way you want... Quote Link to comment
