I've worked here in the past as well - quite possibly the best corporate environment experience I've ever had.
Everyone here keeps the line flowing despite how busy it can get. This place takes the morning rush hour (due to the trade parade) with grace.

You really can’t give me ice water? I honestly find that to be a health and safety hazard. Personally, I will never patronize the Starbucks ever again, no matter the...

When I got to my car, I noticed that written on the rim of my cup was, "Have a nice day, Dina :)" What a nice little touch that put a smile on my face! Looks like I found my...
