What's So Special About Starbucks?

[Observer08]

I'll tell you guys what's special about Starbucks: its genius marketing. Period.

 

Nice one, I'll agree to this. Don't have much of a craving for coffee, the price alone could buy you a decent lunch or dinner.

nice thread. correct observations among the crowd in starbucks.

 

let me just add a lil observation of mine. cafe latte, cafe mocha at mocha frap ang iniinum kadalasan ng mga tao sa starbucks.

 

id prefer decaf at baang over starbucks. and house blend of ucc.

Nothing. Ambiance and crowd lang

[snoopy/woodstock]

nothing special, really. i usually go there early in the morning after dropping off the kids to school, enjoy the quiet surrounding, freshly brewed coffee and the time to read the morning paper, that's it.

i used to loathe starbucks. ive always been a coffe drinker but i prefer my coffee the way i make it. always thought starbucks (et al) was over priced. but nowadays,im a frequent tambay of starbucks. i dont like drinkin and stuff. so me goin to starbucks is liek any other person goin out to bars. its a haven,. somewhere to sit, talk, smoke or hours on end. it is a bit pricy but then again youre not just paying for the coffee.

good hangout place

good coffee.. but i seldom go there. hindi ako mahilig sa kape. i'd rather eat someplace else than stay in starbucks and drink coffee.

add the sugar content and calories your consuming in your system for those fraps. just because its a coffee shop doesnt mean they care about you being consuming your daily needs of coffee and helping you to get stay awake with the kick of caffeine in your system.

 

try asking youll be shock how much your consuming. and yes . .. like all busineses especially international franchise stuff it doesnt go eventually the same or the control of it, remember mostly a business when ran in another country usually change due to a lot of reasons like raw mats, costing, etc etc etc.

 

you just got the label . . .

ambiance is what starbucks really have...

[Mango Man]

IMHO, there's nothing that great about Starbucks. It's just a nice place to tambay for a long time.

may nakapag sabi na ba sa inyo na "tara starbucks tayo, masarap ang kami doon"? siguro ang madalas nyo narinig eh "tara starbucks tayo, masarap tumambay doon".

Some people love coffee and are willing to pay; some need a place to lounge in and overstay. What I don't get is how can people study/work in such a crowded place, and hold a table for HOURS (wala sigurong quiet place sa kanila?). And the planner thing! Kinakarir! I have friends who have it because they are regulars, others really go all ends just because the planner is supposed to be sosyal.
