According to Starbucks, it's three hours!
Today, Feb. 26th, from 5:30 to 8:30 pm, every single Starbucks location in the U.S. (nearly 7,100) will be closed. They will be re-training their employees on how to brew the perfect shot of espresso, steam milk to order and finally get our customized drinks correct! (Yes, I said soy milk, NOT skim milk!!!) Standards have been slipping for several years now and I'm glad to hear that the company is finally doing something about it.
The big question on everyone's mind is..."Where will I go for coffee between 5:30 and 8:30 pm?"
My obvious suggestions are:
Dunkin' Donuts (can't beat 99 cent espressos, cappuccinos and lattes), Seattle's Best, Chock Full o' Nuts, your local mom and pop coffee shops...
I don't know. Home? If I was out of work and could go anywhere, I'd just go home and sip some tea or coffee from the comfort of my couch.
For those in need of Internet access, here are some of my suggestions on where you can score free wi-fi (well, in Manhattan at least):
All of midtown Manhattan, Bryant Park, Chelsea Market and more.
