Starbucks in Kansas City



PUT DOWN THE PLASTIC



PLEASE NOTE
The stores pictured below are labeled with information that comes directly from the official Starbucks web site. The only alterations I have made are to remove certain punctuation marks. Please report any naming errors directly to Starbucks. Once they fix the error on their end, my database will pick it up. However, if you know any of the opening/closing dates I am missing, please send them to me.

If you're lucky, you might see some beauties sunbathing outside this store. At least until they read this caption and decide to move elsewhere.

119th & Glenwood, Overland Park

This is a huge store. It is also the only other store I have seen with the partitions that I described in my caption for the Newport, KY, store, only this store has four of them, and rather than being blank, they are covered with the corporate murals

This generally ordinary store had one cool feature, a private little nook in the back of the store. Oh, there was also a small stone fountain atop the condiment bar. I liked the Christmas stockings for each partner, but they will surely be gone by the time I get around to writing this.

This was the first store I visited in Kansas, while on the way to my cousin's wedding in Virginia back in June of '99. Back then, the Kansas City (both KS and MO) market had only a few stores, but since then KC has definitely come into its own, Starbucks-wise, with a respectable 20+ stores.


75th & Quivira, Shawnee

After seeing so many stores, I'm noticing that the wooden decks are not all that common. Too bad, because they are great for just hanging out and relaxing on a pretty day.
