I don’t hate it Amy, I go there nearly daily even during this pandemic and I live in a suburb of Seattle. Everyone knows me in the frequent stores that I patronize and they show it. Unfortunately we live in a world where we build things up just to tear them down. Celebrities, Apple, Amazon, and on and on.

Most of these mom and pops have copied their formula from Starbucks and offer a similar experience with WiFi and seating and their prices aren’t cheaper but thats never mentioned. In many cases they are more expensive for smaller sizes and whether anything taste better or worse is subjective.
