Is there a particular drink that you like at Starbucks?
Mineral water; smoothies, double espresso - either in its purist form, or, as a macchiato.
Now, I cannot say that I "like" any of the drinks, but, you know, needs must.
In common with
@mobilehaathi, I, too, like to sit in corners with a back to a wall.
Today, I was time constrained; the guy I was to meet - a former academic colleague I rate highly (we had cancelled a coffee scheduled for later - he attended one of the meetings I attended), wears glasses and usually runs late.
Thus, I sat facing the window - very unusual for me - as this business of two of us wearing spectacles and blundering about while I was pressed for time, and wished to discuss (what else? current affairs, thoughts, ideas) stuff in a compressed 40 minutes would not have appealed, and facing the window, I was able to signal him as he came through the door.

It doesn't make up for poor coffee, but ubercool hipster places set my teeth on edge, whereas Starbuck's merely has me rolling my eyes.
