Starbucks

This Starbucks is situated on the corner of woodroffe and carling ave. This is a pretty spacious location with lots of outdoor seating. I don’t know about you guys, but I really like having the option between staying in and sitting out. I really like their outdoor area because there is a good amount of background street noise, call me weird, but this is a great place (for me, anyways) to read or study. I just can’t do it when it’s too quiet. Other than that, this place has all the same great Starbucks-​ness that you can find at other locations, so come on down!

This lovely Starbucks just happens to by my neighbourhood location and I’m oh-​so-​thankful! The staff are superb, there’s a great patio (mind you the view of Carling is less that thrilling… but still!), and they’ve never screwed up my order. There’s lots of great seating here and of course, the added plus of speedy WiFi. Comfy chairs, lots of windows and a few work tables make it a great place to get some work done and daydream.
I’m only giving them five stars because I still don’t love their coffee, though I suppose it’s just my taste buds and no fault of Starbucks. I do however, absolutely LOVE their shaken iced tea (I always get black and sometimes with lemonade), skinny vanilla lattes and ginger molasses cookies. Try their scones with raspberry jam as well — simply divine!

In Ottawa for Canada Day weekend and to visit my cousin and this is the first place I stop into. I needed caffeine in whatever form I could get it in once that craving came in, this was the first place I saw. The place was clean, had a lot of lounge chairs, they were quick and efficient with my girlfriends ordering (also, she is Korean and there is a language barrier and the server was super helpful and keeping calm, taking his time to understand her despite there being 4 other customers behind her). Honestly, as far as Starbucks goes, this was a pretty nice place. ⁴⁄₅ because the bathroom was a tad gross. Starbucks washrooms are usually clutch places to do my business on the run… TMI… my bad.

Really awesome comer to get a cup of your favorite Java… they are not the busiest so it is great for a quick in and out coffee run. staff is accurate with their orders, although watch out their coffee is very very hot… hotter than other Starbucks…

Feeling the heat we stopped in while cruising town for the weekend for the Rammstein concert. Oh so tasty coffee frappé with an espresso shot. ;) super helpful peeps who waited before lidding to offer not-​included whipped cream-​just in case I wanted it. Wow
