Restaurants that used to be

I get my Starbucks decaf coffee every morning on my way to work.  However, when I am on vacation, I prefer the local coffee that is there.  When I am at DW, I live on Kona coffee.  I would never get Starbucks while at DW.  There are too many other options.  I would like to see it disappear too.  McDonald's?  I wouldn't even eat that at home, no less at DW.  I do miss the Soundstage Restaurant that was in MGM Studios, now Hollywood Studios.  We had buffet breakfasts there and saw the characters from Aladdin and Pocahontas.  It was great!  The food was good and there was ample access to the characters.  Jafar was awesome...Meeko was too adorable.

Everyone is entitled to their personal opinion.  To me, Starbucks is over-priced bitter-tasting coffee.  The reason everyone adds all that other stuff to their Starbucks coffee is because they have to do something to make it taste better because their plain coffee taste nasty.  As for my wife, she has drink decaf and to her their decaf isn't half bad but she is unwilling to pay that price for a simple cup of coffee.  I think Starbucks is more of an ego thing anyhow.  For as much as Starbucks coffee costs, it is for the yuppies, well-to-do's, rich-and-famous and those that want to think they are in the previously mentioned groups.

People always complain about how much a trip to WDW costs but at the same time, they drink their Starbucks.  If they drink regular good coffee like Dunkin' Donuts or coffee from home, then they could save enough to make a dent in the cost of a Disney trip.  Example: Venti (24 oz) coffee costs close to $5.00 including tax.  If you plan your Disney trip 6 months in advance and stop at Starbucks everyday on your way to work, Starbucks would cost you $650.00  but it could be more if you stop on the weekends or order their muffins and what-have-you.  In comparison, if you by K-cups in the 12 pack that costs about $6.00 a box and have coffee everyday for the same 6 months, it would only cost you about $90.00.

Another reason I don't like Starbucks....they bought Teavana.  I used to by their tea to make at home but since they sold to Starbucks, I haven't contributed to Starbucks' pockets.

Like I said at the beginning, everyone is entitled to their opinion and this post is just our opinion.

I completely agree

I love Starbucks decaf coffee...I just want to try something different when I'm on vacation. My stomach does not like Dunkin' Donuts coffee, donuts, etc. You're right...if you get a specialty coffee, be ready to pay up.

Wow, I drink way more coffee than that. I think we spend about $35 @ month on coffee. just at home. not counting coffee bought at WaWa or other places. I should probably research this more for missed savings.
