There weren't no way in @#$% ya could a fit yer big behind in there anyhow! Whenever ya tried doin' that in the past ya knocked over ev'ry other guest inside the dang place! That's prob'ly the reason they went an got rid a the tables an' chairs ta begin with! (Sounds of smashings and crashings followed by a deadly calm....)

I was quiet happy when Starbucks opened at DLP, because finally it was possible to get good coffee compared to Nescafe. Now DLP serves Segafredo, an Italian brand, but it's only a slight improvement. Hopefully one day Starbucks will be inside DLP as well. Starbucks doesn't have the best coffee, but they do have good coffee and it is fair trade. And I like the fact that I can get everywhere the Pike Place Roast and it tastes everywhere the same.

Certainly a lot better than the mass branded approach that Starbucks takes

I really like these coffee houses and they do offer many wonderful specialities. I just think it is good to have alternatives and in my opinion Starbucks is a good alternative for younger costumers. Our traditional coffee houses are mostly attended by older people, which is totally fine, but Starbucks has a modern charme and I like that as well. I guess since Starbucks is still something new over here, it is ineteresting for people. When Starbucks first opened over here, they had huge problems and had to close many locations shortly afterwards. When I see a Starbucks I have great memories about my time studyng in the US. I went to Starbucks nearly everyday.
