Fuck You Starbucks
Back when I worked in L.A., I drank mochas from the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. I would also buy their beans and make the occasional giant cup of coffee for the twenty-minute commute to work. There was a Starbucks downstairs at work, but I never drank the coffee there. I'd walk the block to the CB&TL. Their mochas were sweeter and the coffee didn't taste burnt. If I liked the taste of Starbucks, I wouldn't have any problem with their methods. As it is, I'm moderately troubled by them.
Now I can't have caffeine, so it doesn't really matter. I occasionally have a cup of decaf from a local chain near the office. This depends solely on whether they have half-and-half and Splenda, as I don't like black coffee.
My money is on str8 to be a CB&TL guy, as that is the preferred choice of celebs in LA. They do write screenplays at several Starbucks in LA, but I don't want to get into a coffee/culture/LA discussion.
