Starbucks (450 Washington St.)
About
This Starbucks sits inside the downtown Macy’s department store, next to the entrance at the corner of Washington Street and Temple Place in Downtown Crossing. The Downtown Boston Alliance pitches it as the perfect accompaniment to a shopping trip at Macy’s. It serves Starbucks coffee and espresso drinks along with baked goods and sweets, and it is set up for casual, takeout-friendly visits.
Starbucks began in 1971 as a single store at Seattle’s Pike Place Market and grew into one of the world’s largest coffeehouse chains, known for brewed coffee, Italian-style espresso beverages and Frappuccino blended drinks. Because this counter is located inside the department store, shoppers can pick up a coffee or snack without leaving Macy’s. Drinks can typically be customized with a choice of milk, syrups and extra espresso shots.
