If you happen to be a fan of Starbucks, you might want to travel to Chicago as it is now the home of the biggest Starbucks outlet in the world.
The giant coffee location opened just a few days ago and Starbucks has officially named it the biggest in their entire chain.
The coffee shop has five floors laced with everything you want from a coffee shop, starting from coffee cocktails to delicious pastries and a seasonal rooftop to make the new location different from the older ones.
The enormous 35,000 square feet building is located on the corner of Erie Street and Michigan Avenue.
This huge coffee shop has its own dedicated Roastery and it is the sixth one of the chain to get one. Previously, the Shanghai, Seattle, Tokyo, New York, and Milan outlets had this provision.
The building the coffee shop is set up in was previously a furniture store. It has a spiral escalator in the center that revolves around the Roastery, the centerpiece of the whole décor.
The Roastery is a 56 ft. steel vessel where the coffee beans are brewed.
Going up the escalator, you won’t only get a 360-degree tour of the place but also a classic view of the city of Chicago.
The gigantic coffee shop is obviously set up to serve coffee to people but the Roastery is also a tourist attraction in itself. Starbucks makes Roasteries in a way to highlight the cultural aspects of the cities they are located in.
Now, this is not just a Starbucks, it is the largest Starbucks, and having a coffee there will include the price for that.
At this outlet, you won’t find any cup of coffee under $5 and a single cocktail off the bar will cost you around $16.
The Arriviamo Bar at the new Starbucks location sells Chicago-themed cocktails and a dessert designed to be served with coffee known as the liquid nitrogen gelato.
This specialty is only available at the new location and the Starbucks shop in Milan.
Starbucks made sure to include everything they offer in this new coffee location, which means they’ve also got a Princi – Starbucks signature bakery that serves baked treats as well as full meals like Pizza.
The third floor has the Experiential Coffee Bar where you can get your coffee in any way you can imagine. They serve espresso, French press, pour-over, Clover, Chemex, cold brew and siphon.
You can also buy Starbucks’ hand-painted denim jackets there, which cost around $650 per piece.
