much better than the watered down DD coffee. ALso I find that they are more consistent in terms of quality of coffee (I've never had to return a cup of coffee at Starbucks) One thing they need help on is decent (if not edible) pastries. Lost in the woods - I'd take acorns before a starbucks bagel.
Pros: quality, freshness, "chic"
Cons: never parking, not on every corner, bad bagels
