Only in a pinch
I am sick and tired of them. It doesn't even smell like coffee when you go in to their stores, and they really are McCoffees, with grossly inflated price tags. In my personal rebellion I refuse to order a venti by name. I ask for a large coffee, and the barrista (yuck, pretentious there too), invariably stares blankly for a second and then asks hesitantly if I mean a venti. Plus, I think there regular coffee brews have been watered down increasingly over the past 5-6 years. They do have a great selection of coffee beans though for making your own.
Yes, I still buy coffee there at freeway rest stops. Like if I even could buy any other coffee at a rest stop. From the looks of it, they have a monopoly at least between Virginia and New Jersey.
