This place used to be the Federal Cigar store, and is long, deep, but not very wide. Therein lies the problem with the layout. There are some comfy chairs near the front of the restaurant, and people who land in them tend to stay there. It's a friendlier place than some of the neighboring competitors, and the coffee is very good and changes through the years. 60 percent of the time I go here, 15 percent to Dunkin Donuts, 20 percent to the other Starbucks in Portsmouth, and 5 percent to BNG. The food at BNG is made on premises, but the coffee is inconsistent there.\r
I like this Starbucks. They go out of their way to know the customers.
Pros: Good consitent product, friendly staff, good selection
Cons: Parking, limited comfy chairs
