Brand New

One of our favorite Starbucks locations had been closed for renovations. It reopened this week. We were certainly surprised to see that they removed most of the tables

[Diana]

How very unusual, are they doing more coffee to go then? It seems like such a big place, nicely captured.

[Bill Davidson]

A very large open space.

[Babs]

How odd. Where are people going to sit.

[JackieR]

They want you to pick and go! But what a waste of space.

Fab lighting effects you captured

[haskar]

Fast takeaway service. In our country it is a war between owners and people working in the cafe on laptops. They sit for a few hours drinking one cup of coffee.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Beautiful clean and spacious but not very inviting for the enjoyment of a relaxing cuppa !!

[Joan Robillard]

Lovely

[Monica]

They don't want people to spend hours using their wifi, after buying just a cup of espresso.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

It does look new. Very nice.

[LManning (Laura)]

I like the way you've captured the lighting.

[Bucktree]

Great capture and POV. I guess they prefer their customers to not lounge around. Get your cup and go.

[Carole Sandford]

That’ll be coffee to go then!

[carol white]

Looks like a waste of space there

[Christine Sztukowski]

Nice

[Michelle]

Nicely renovated shame they hadn’t put come comfy chairs in

[Tunia McClure]

People hang out for hours over one cup of coffee.

[gloria jones]

It does look new.

[Nick]

As you say, the lack of tables is amazing. Hopefully they will fix this.

[Heather]

A great open space with wonderful floor-to-ceiling windows, but I echo others who have commented on the lack of seating. You have captured this well, Brian!

[Kathy]

They don't seem to need the space they've got without tables. You'll find a coffee shop you like just as well and one that appreciates coffee and conversation.

[Rick]

Nice capture. Strange that they don't have tables in there. Guess they don't wont' people staying and using their wi-fi.

[Diane]

Nice shot. It doesn't seem very welcoming, though, with so few tables.

[bkb in the city]

@rickster549 Rick that is exactly it

[bkb in the city]

@eudora It is different

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I guess they are expecting more take-out than "sip" in!

[Steve Chappell]

definitely a different look

[bkb in the city]

@olivetreeann Ann l am thinking that is their aim

[bkb in the city]

@swchappell definitely
