i agree... their coffee is not terrible... i like strong coffee too... i would rather err on the side of too strong than too weak... but their coffee is wwaayyy overpriced... i think most of those here on FR who dislike Starbucks like coffee without all the added fluff like foam and steamed milk and flavors... now that you have stated you like Starbucks coffee, be prepared to hear that you must not know what good coffee is... whatever...
when i go to Starbucks, usually it is because i am meeting a friend there, or i have a meeting taking place there... i order a skinny latte or a plain black iced tea... sometimes i go because i have a gift card...
Their regular tall coffee isn’t expensive, under 1.50. I like them because they’re very convenient and the coffee is fresh. I put their card on my phone, my wife’s, my kids and grandkids. That way, if they want a beverage, it’s on me.
