What's So Special About Starbucks?

[Mike Chester]

Parang ang binabayaran mo sa starbucks kasi is the feeling that you are somehow part of those upper class in our society.

[manrick04]

totally agree with you bro.

 

but really... what's so special about starbucks is not starbucks. it's the chicks who hang around in starbucks!

 

NAXS!

 

 

Tama ka dyan pre!! kaya kahit expensive, ok lang kasi busog naman mata ko!!

whats the difference between a jeepney and a BMW?

 

they both serve a niche purpose. One costs a lot and the other not? ask people their opinion and your answers will vary and accordingly to social class. Similar to Starbucks. Yes it is not for everyone but it serves a niche and does it well.

Well it's definitely NOT the coffee... Their brewed coffee tastes like last night's used coffee grounds and all that blended frou-frou crap with cream is just plain ridiculous.

 

Really, what can be a gayer sight than a buffed-up guy sipping a 'mocha frap' (god i hate those shortcuts) with whipped cream?

 

Me? Give me "forty-five-choice-co-ffee-beans-in-a-cup-of-blend-forty-five!" - remember to get your syLLAbles correct when you sing.

ABSULUTELY NOTHING>>>> we drink the brand. starbucks beans are all dark roasted and dry, for commercial purposes and long shelf life. good coffee should be medium roasted. double dosed atleast for me. on my personal opinion, if you want good coffee go to ucc or coffee beanery

Because of its location, :upside: ,pagkatapos uminom sa may Adriatico, deretso na sa may harap ng Robinsons Ermita para makapag cape,sakto lang...malapit pa sa TGI fridays.

Sakto, sana i-endorse rin nila yung adobong aso sa ibang bansa noh? yayaman tayo diyan,o kaya gin pomelo..

Starbuks pasyalan kasi ng mga sosyal at mga nagpapanggap na sosyal. Eh sa States nga isang maliit na booth lang dun s NY. wala pang upuan nakatayo lang at may table. Ewan ko ba bakit d2 pinas mga pauso. buti pa ang figaro may originality filipino owned.

coffee aside Starbucks in my opinion overall does a better job at most everything else compared to the other coffee shops. Locations, service, quality, promotions, their employees etc. To say otherwise you would have to be pretty naive or not very observant.

[evo9]

true

 

with starbucks its not just the product but the overall experience of drinking coffee there

[mesu]

nothing

[taz31]

people go to strabucks, not for the coffee, but to be seen there drinking their coffee.

[Don Carleone]

i dnt knw either.. coffee is cofee..

[chocoboy83]

the environment

[Chinelas1]

I agree....ambiance, finest picked beans, selections, and wi-fi. The funniest thing is that I was recently in Seattle and people hardly go to Starbucks and they go to other up coming joints! LOL
