BECAUSE IT TASTES GOOD! And 4 dollars for some awesome coffee is a lot better than spending 10 times that amount on something like, say...cocaine. Not that I do drugs. Just Starbucks. Maybe you should try it. I can guarantee that you'll fall in love :)

Nice atmosphere, combined with a caffeine buzz, served with a dose of hype.
I actually like Starbucks because they serve a yummy lemon cake. For coffee, I tend to like mom and pop diners. Not that you asked.....

It's because they're running the small coffee shops out of business, so if you want the coffee shop atmosphere and like to try different coffee flavours, you're stuck with them.

It's very good coffee, but that's not what gets me, it's the exceptionally fine service and the attitude of the servers. I've never been treated better anywhere else. It's the Ritz-Carlton of coffeehouses.

I am a huge starbucks fan. People know the great taste of it and the atmosphere. Plus it gets addicting.
