Starbucks in Washington, D.C.



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 do not report any errors in the names or spellings of streets or cities to me, but rather to Starbucks. Once they fix the error on their end, my database will pick it up. I will fill missing photograph dates as I have time, and I will continue to try and obtain store opening dates.

If this store manages to overcome the city's objections and install outdoor seating, customers will have a good view of the White House.

Aaaw yeeeeah! Besides the absolutely lovely architecture of the building Starbucks selected for this location, this store is truly charming. Downstairs the seating in that circular thing at the front of the store (WHAT is it called) looks mighty cozy. And the store has an upstairs, where the serious students hide with their textbooks.

A display on the wall shows a montage of photographs of examples of Starbucks serving the local community.


22nd & K Street

Upon entering this store, follow the brick-colored brick road down to the main floor and the registers, but take care not to be thrown off track by the mirrored columns scattered throughout the structure.

Brick interior gives this newer store a bit of atmosphere, and the patio has obviously become popular fairly quickly.

This is the only store in the country with an exterior sign in another language--according to a barista, it reads "Gourmet Coffee", but I'm also told it translates into "Starbucks Coffee" (xing-ba-ke ka-fei, a transliteration of the two words).

Capital Gallery

I'm told Capital Gallery is a government building, which would make this the first such Starbucks in DC. Regardless, the metal sign is pretty cool.

It seems appropriate that this store should have been built in the former Kenny Coffee Co. dating back to the turn of the century.

This neat little store, with its lovely façade and interior brick wall for additional atmosphere, has a partnership with the zoo. They have adopted an ape, and display photos of interesting animals on the wall. And I'm not sure what this means, but I jotted down a note--"Lori not a blonde".

Don't try anything funny here, as Amtrak police has a booth right across from the Starbucks here. I don't know if they are as bad as the DC Metro Police, but I tried to be on my best behaviour nonetheless.

This store is dedicated to Michelle Marcoccia.
