I don't understand why people like Starbucks so much. Their coffee is nasty and so is their food. But people are addicted to it. All my relatives have the app and spend like $50+ a week there.
Only reason I ever go is because I'm roadtripping at 6am and it's the only place open that early. The indie coffee shops don't open until 8am.
Where are you that indie coffee shops aren't open at 6am? I just looked at all the coffee shops near me and they all open 6:30 or earlier except for one located inside a mall.
Boston. Indies open at 8am and close at 2pm. Starbucks is open like 6am-9pm. If I want a coffee at 3pm I am stuck with Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. Indies can't afford to be open an extra 7 hours where they are doing very little business.
