There needs to be a nationwide outcry. Demand they continue to operate these free pee stations. Just raise prices. Or, better yet, get taxpayer monies to subsidize their burnt coffee.

What will this do to homeless families?

Where are parents to bathe their children now?

I want video of the first child unable to get clean, all tears and whining included.

Has Nancy Pelosi been notified of this?

Can’t the SPLC get an injunction?

One word: Rent

The rents are killing the restaurant trade.

Starbucks announced Tuesday it plans to close 150
underperforming stores in the 2019 fiscal year.

***********

Not bad considering at the end of 2017 they had in the USA
8,222 company operated stores and 5,708 licensed stores.

Hard to believe. There are still some blocks in DC that only have two.

I certainly hope they don't close the Starbucks right across from the street from the other Starbucks near me.

It would be really inconvenient if I were headed in the wrong direction and had to make a U-Turn.

Go in with your MAGA hat. Don’t buy anything. Just sit there. Use the bathroom, more than once. See how long it takes to get thrown out. Get the whole thing on video (discreetly.) post the video.

That double-talk marketing speak from the CEO is really creepy.

I bought a cup of Starbuck’s coffee ONCE. I still can’t figure why any sane person would spend five bucks for such a vile brew. It’s hard for me to understand why they aren’t forced to close all of them.

Never understood Coffee, let alone overpriced Starbucks Coffee...

If I wanted to wake up every morning putting a bitter taste in my mouth, I’d just become a liberal.

The one closest to the Eglin AFB Main Gate went out of business..............
