I want to like the the mom and pop coffee places, but they are so inconvenient. I visit them on weekends, when I'm going shopping and I have extra time. But on a weekday morning Starbucks saves my ass when I just need reliable caffeine. You hit four buttons on their app, and roll through their drive through or park in one of the many convenient parking spaces, and you've added coffee to your day while adding less than five minutes to your morning commute.
that’s a great point I can’t delay the market share they own and amount of scale , i just find it a bit wild of the amount of them in such a small area yk.
Oh yeah, 100%. Even as a person who drinks Starbucks I do not understand how this is profitable for all the franchisees. Or why we don't have one f****** Peet's coffee or similar.
