What can I say? One Starbucks is like every other? No, not actually. While the general branding is the same, the layout of most Starbucks locations seems to vary - and the one at the heart of Yaletown is simply great.
Yaletown is host to a number of Starbucks shops, and they are very, very good. Not because the coffee necessarily tastes better or because the décor is more attractive. The people who staff the places are terrific- if a little aloof. Here, unlike many rural locations, one can order his grande no-whip Tazo Chai Blended Crème Frappucino caramel affogado style and no one will bat an eyelash. Elsewhere, there will be confusion, there will be panic, there will be the occasional tear and perhaps a free gift certificate because of the wait. Not here. So order away, be complex, give these ultra-professional folks a run for their money. They can handle it.
Note: The current skytrain construction around Davie and Hamilton has rendered the patio a construction zone. Stay inside.

Corner of Davie and Hamilton
