Default Starbucks

What is your general opinion of Starbucks? I know that there are those who absolutely love it and those who hate it. I am on the side that loves it. It may be expensive coffee, but I figure that if you have the money and want that quality, then you should go for it.

If you like Starbucks, what is your favorite drink?

I haven't had much from Starbucks, but I wouldn't say I love it. I'm not a huge coffee-type drink person, so I'm probably not the best judge. But, I will say that I refuse to go much at all because I just can't justify $4 or more for a small cup of hot chocolate, basically.

I am not a huge coffee drinker. However, I do like Starbucks Caramel Frapaccinos. Also like their Chai Teas. I don't go their everyday since the cost is high. However, I will treat myself maybe every two weeks or so.

I love starbucks! I don't go there as much as I'd like too but I like it. It is expensive but compared to the Bahamas it's cheaper in the states. It was $5.00 for a grande

I love Starbucks!

I don't go there as often because I'm trying to save some money. But whenever I go there I buy Caramel Frappuccino or Cafe Latte.

I like Starbucks, and I like that they use Fair Trade products.

I love the Hazelnut hot chocolate in the winter, and the new Banana Java Chip Frapuccino is lovely.

I tried this and I didn't like it that much. It tastes a little weird. I just gave the frap to my brother and I ordered another one.

I LOVE Starbucks!!!! I get a Tall no fat, no whip, 2 pump White Mocha. The funny thing is I don't drink coffee unless I go there (which is 4 times a week)! I wish I would have thought up this concept because I would be rich by now. Who would have thought SO many people would pay that much for coffee?!

I love Starbucks for the occasional treat. I don't really drink coffee, though, so I go for chai tea or green tea latte (hot or frappuccino).

Everything I've had at Starbucks is just "okay". Sadly, I think I can get about the same quality at a QT - for much MUCH less.

I've tried both the coffee and cream based ones and I have to say the cream one is a little icky...but the coffee one is much nicer!

I have never understood how these coffee shops have become so popular. I am not much of a coffee drinker, but if I were, I don't know that I would pay all that much for a cup of coffee! I do love the smell of coffee, though.

I'll take a Bucks if it's the only thing around. I don't otherwise like them because their coffee is too strong and makes me sick as does the sweet drinks.

I hardly ever go to Starbucks but I love it when I do. That said I can only order like one thing on the menu b/c I don't do caffeine and don't do sugary/carb stuff. Here they have finally all started with the sugar-free syrups. So now I can get a sugar-free cinnamon low-fat latte.

I love starbucks and it's never too expensive for me because I get 50% off all their drinks so it's equivalent to dunkin donuts for me in price :-D but I love the strawberry lemonades and the java chip fraps...

How do you do that??? I want 50% off their drinks!!

I love Starbucks. Not their plain coffee (too strong and bitter) but I love their lattes and cafe americanos.

I really love that they have soy milk and organic milk available too.
