The Starbucks next to the HSBC in Langford on Jacklin Rd across from the Westshore Mall is a real good spot. Very comfortable inside with decent parking and attractive people working inside.
Starbucks definetely outfoxed the competition on scouting better locations and providing parking and drive-throughs.

For the record, although I prefer independent joints, I commend Starbucks for virtually re-inventing cafe culture and adding sidewalk vitality to streets in Victoria and around the world. Recall that before Starbucks arrived in Victoria, going for coffee consisted of sitting on a stool at a diner counter--there was no outdoor seating.

*cough*La Boheme*cough*Fine, but put it a mixed use building. Is that going to be office space on the 2nd floor, or just empty 'architectural' space?

In my memory the seating spilled out all the way into Market Square at times.

I posted it in the Coffee discussion back on April 12th.So when did they open that Starbucks on Shelbourne in deepest Gordon Head?
If you like shiny new coffee houses, check out the refurnished Starbucks on the corner of Fort and Foul Bay with it's sexy new interior. I would expect it to be finished and re-opened by the end of the week.

They refinished the one in Cook St. Village about a year ago and I honestly couldn't tell the difference between before and after.
Me neither.

The Douglas and Yates one was closed for renos a couple of days ago. I'll have to check it out to see what's not new!

I wonder where was the first Victoria Starbucks?
What cafes existed before then? I can only think of La Boheme/Java.
