So I went to starbucks today..

[mafia]

I asked them for some coffee and they didn't have a clue what that was.... ???

They started asking me for specifications, as if I was engineering this coffee or something.

I left and went to McDonalds.

And why don't they have a English menu. That place is so wierd.

Uhm... I don't beleive you.

You can go into a Starbucks and order "a coffee". They'll ask you what size. The might ask what variation you want (out of a few choices), but usually they just give you the default coffee.

My experiences with starbucks has been:
"I'd like a coffee, grande"
"ok, that'll be x.xx"

No but they are asking me for which type of coffee, frapuchina.. crapuchinno, whether its grande or some other crap,, I didn't understand. I just wanted coffee. Medium sized coffee.

i hope its like that now, the first and last time i was in starbucks was in 2001 at 620 am, i asked for a large black coffee and was told "we don't have large black coffee"

to this day im still amazed i didn't end up killing him

 

[slayer202]

eh, weak rant and probably not complete truth. though starbucks is crazily overpriced

edit: ok looking at the website now

looks like for regular coffee, they have a daily choice, and then they have clover or pike


so you are complaining that they give you a choice, and don't just give you whatever shit they want

yep. I go to Starbucks sometimes before work because they have a drive thru. Its normally when its shitty out and I don't want to get out of my car. Here's my order:

Can I get a large coffee with lots of cream please?

I've never had any problem.

It sounds like you might be stupid. Not that I would ever go to starbucks, but if i did I'm pretty sure I could figure out how to order. McDonalds clearly caters to your kind.

I went to a starbucks about 10 years ago.
Coffee at the shell gas station for $4 less is fine for me.

 

[Ika]

sounds like user fail to me.

 

[lxskllr]

I never had issues at Starbucks. I usually just get regular coffee, and if I do, I ask for a "large regular coffee", and that's exactly what I get. The flavor's good, and the price isn't bad. I don't order "premium" drinks there, so it's competitive with all the other quick coffee choices, and better than most.

And if I want some fancy drip coffee, I'll at least hit up one of the dozen local companies whose corporate spending is all local.

 

[marvdmartian]

When I've ordered plain coffee from a Starbucks in the past, the only tough thing they had to deal with is remembering where the darn Mr Coffee was, amongst all the other crap!!

Oh, and Starbucks coffee is awful. I make better coffee at home with a drip coffee maker and Folgers.

 

[Ns1]

shens

i see and hear people buying straight coffee no problems all the time

 

[TecHNooB]

if you told them you wanted medium coffee you would have gotten a 'grande' sized container with whatever they were brewing at the time (usually it's more than 1 type so they might ask).

I got much the same thing the last time I went into a UpChucks...

"WTF? Are you retarded? I don't fucking care what foofy name you call it...I want a large coffee to go...black."

I got my coffee...with some seriously silly looks from the servers...I mean "baristas."

 

[logo908]

"medium coffee, black"

is all I ever need to say...

 

[JS80]

Small iced coffee never fails me

 

[Chaotic42]

I've ordered regular coffee from there plenty of times with only one problem. Usually it's:

Me: "I'd like a medium black coffee"
Coffee slave: "Ok, $x"
Me: "Thanks"

One time:

Me: "I'd like a medium black coffee"
Coffee slave: "What? It's.... it's after 12:00"
Me: D:

 

[schneiderguy]

I take my coffee black. Just like my men.

amdhunter will be sad to hear this...

And they have coffee, obviously you were speaking dumbass, a language they couldn't understand.

Did you even look on the menu b/c it's listed there?
