I do like Starbucks though I am a Pete's girl (very similar). I don't like those types of drinks though, just give me a cup of coffee. I don't like all that sweet stuff as I am sweet enough, LOL!

Ive only been to Starbucks to buy gift cards in the past. I dont drink coffe and the teas and other drinks are not sugar free ( at least the last time i looked). Nothing there for me to enjoy and i cojldnt afford it anyway now.

I have a Starbucks nonfat latte every morning. I am holding it in my left hand as I respond to your post. It is the only coffee that does not trigger my acid reflux. I anticipate my morning latte every day. The remainder of the day I drink water since sodas, lemonade, fruit drinks, and you name it aggravate my reflux.

I'm sorry, but I don't. I rarely drink coffee, but will go out of my way to find a Dunkin or McDonald's before stepping into a Starbucks store.

@LindaSal I prefer a hot cup (or cups) of coffee in the morning..Starbucks whether home (cappocino) or in the mall. I've never gotten into cold drinks of any kind, especially sweet ones. I think some Starbucks may now have sugar free syrups.

I only like my coffee in the mornings. I never order it after dinner in a restaurant and enjoy herbal teas during the day.

Many find Starbucks a very strong coffee especially the bold ones like espresso and French Roast.

When we went to Paris many years ago, I got used to a cup of espresso, so strong coffee is my preference. At home, we have a giant jar next to our coffee maker (the type with with the rubber seal and click top) and we fill it with a bag of caff. and 1/2 bag of decaff.

I've read that caffiene is really good for you.

Have one about a mile away and have never been there. I have one cup a day and use my Kuerig. I don't think I would like that though, as I don't like sweetner in coffee. Just a bit of creamer.

Ive never been to one. We do have one now in the Kroger store near here. But I dont plan to get anything there.

Starbucks is too expensive. I only get coffee from there if they are selling Gingerbread Lattes at Christmas or if I have a gift card. Dunkin' and McDonald's have excellent and cheaper iced coffee.

I don't drink coffee, so I've only been into a Starbucks once while on travel and wanted to use their wifi since it was before the time when hotels provided it. That's how long ago it was. I think I bought a tea since I am a hot tea drinker, but I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to buy tea when I'm home, and I take bags with me when I travel now.

I MIGHT like the sweetened drinks if they don't have too much coffee flavor. I really like a mocha, so Arby's Jamocha shake is my go-to. I don't even get those very often. Trying to keep my somewhat girlish figure.

I do DISLIKE the closest Starbucks because they cause traffic issues with people making the U-turn to get to it. You can't tell if someone is going to make a left turn or a U-turn and some don't realize U-turns have the ROW over right-on-red turns. Plus they back up in the right lane on a major thoroughfare which also causes problems for the people trying to make a right turn at that light.

I like Starbucks, but don't go there often since I make a pot of coffee everyday.

I wish they would list their selections for the customer to see, but perhaps there are too many choices that I'm unaware of ... hmm.

I've never had a frappuccino, but the drink you pictured looks yum @catlover7777

We have Starbucks inside Target and Harris Teerter. I can't remember ever having coffee there, but have purchased bags when on sale.

DH drinks decaf. all day at work and enjoy a cup after dinner. He has a Kurig that he keeps on the laundry room counter and has his Starbuck K Kups close by.

I like Starbucks, but my go to is McDonald's Premium Roast.

I drink coffee black. I love to really taste the coffee.

FranandZoe — Sat, 15 Jul 2023 14:04:23 GMT

No I never liked their coffee - it always tasted burned to me and I've tried it many times over the last 30 years. I've never tried their cold drinks.

I like McDonald's coffee. But my favorite is Original Donut Shop in the Keurig with International Delight Caramel Macchiato creamer.

Never been in there, never had a cup of coffee in my life.

Yes I do! I can drink coffee all day long. I love the cold brew nitro. My favorite!
