I was on a mission to secure a gift card for a good friend to Starbucks and ended up here. The location is central on Niagara Falls Blvd in Amherst it is right off the 290 heading south. It is located next to Applebees and Tim Hortons and in the same "plaza" as Target, Kmart, Barnes & Noble, Babies R Us, as well as loads of other great restaurants and shopping venues.
Since it had been a long day and I had 3 little boys in tow, I did not get to sit down and basque in the ambience of the quaint setting. Though at quick glance seating was convenient and intimate.
The cashier was super friendly. I requested the gift card and she warned me, apologetically, ahead of time that they had run out of the small envelopes for the gift cards which I thought was good of her. No problem for me though and I went ahead with my purchase. I couldn't resist a drink for the road. My friend swears by the Chai tea. She says Starbucks has the best so I had to try it. My friend is right, the chai tea hit the spot. It was super yummy.
Though only a quick trip into Starbucks, it was definitely a success and I shall return.
