starbucks isnt good coffee. its commoditized. Even in Seattle which as a ludicrous amount of starbucks and is the HQ for it, there are so many better places, for instance cafe ladro on pine and 7th, 3rd and union, and 15th up on the hill.
their coffee beans and blends are just too plain and bland and arent robust enough to wake me up."I hope I get to punch you in the face one day" - MRT144, Imran Siddiqui

Tim Horton's accepts credit cards in Ohio. Case closed.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

The Italians would be appalled at anybody drinking cafe au lait and calling it latte.Originally posted by Dauphin
Northerners may say milky coffee, but I've always known it as latté.

If you asked me the difference, I would say one is milky, the other has a dash of milk or cream. Call the drinks what you like though, as I still don't drink 'em.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

Have you ever had a latte? It seems ironic that a faceless American megacorp is going to educate you Brits on the joys of espresso-based drinks.
I wouldn't feel bad, though. It's impossible to find a proper latte in most of Europe.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Not to my recollection. I probably have at some point. I've had coffees before, but never had them enough to try and discern the difference in names, brands and styles. I am in a minority though.Originally posted by DanS

Rather, that's cafe au lait, not cafe au latte, JM.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

It's pretty insane, but where I work in downtown DC, there's is more than 1 Starbucks per city block. Then there are other coffee/bagel chains, such as Cosi and Au Bon Pain.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

I would estimate I have 4 Starbucks in 1 block or less walking distance. The nearest Tims is about 3 blocks awayOriginally posted by DanS

How can debit be faster than cash at a drive through-- The smart cashiers have the change part to the nearest dollar out and ready while the smart customers have exact changeOriginally posted by snoopy369
How is debit slow? It's faster than cash... it's more expensive to the store, than cash, but that 1-2% doesn't really make a dent compared to the 90% profit they're making...
I'm not saying debit is that slow but cash can be incredibly fast.You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment
