Whether you like Starbucks coffee or not, this is a personal choice. ![]()
It is more about a new element that started to integrate into the Czech culture.
Malostranske Namesti, as the first location of Starbucks Cafe opened to public this morning (22 January, 2008).
Here are the first observations:
-
Opened yesterday for VIP and the press
-
9:00 am today, opened for public and press was there too
-
at first a longer q however it was not overcrowded inside
-
prices for latte: tall 75, grande 85, XL 95
-
no extra for soy milk
-
coffee taste is average (normal Starbucks coffee)
-
seating ok, split on two levels including basement
-
everyone speaks English (staff and customers)
-
it’s non-smoking
-
free WiFi (tested on the spot by journalists)
-
iTunes Store wireless access via iPhone/iPod to be implemented within 12 months
-
next store to be opened in Palladium in February, more to come soon..
Rating is 8/10 two points down, one for prices, second for the taste.
Everything else was satisfying, we even got to taste muffins for free
