To the couple on the other side of the study table in the study room at Starbucks

[pat]

Guys? get a room. Seriously. There have got to be better places to neck than Starbucks. I know you're young, and you think the world revolves around you, and that this is *twue wove*, but really, take it somewhere else. I'd get up and leave, except I was here first, and I'm stubborn that way.

And again, I'm an equal opportunity prude. I'd be telling you the same thing if you were a straight couple.

A study room in Starbucks!

How many rooms do your Starbuckses have?

I don't like necking in very public places either (either seeing it or doing it). Occasionally, I've surprised myself by doing it. I think I would have been grateful if someone had tactfully said something when it has happened, so that my companion and I would have moved somewhere more private.

Most Starbucks have a standard Starbucks layout. This one, however, has a separate room with a couple of long reading tables (with reading lamps), and all the rest of the tables are the larger round size, good for studying or writing at. People study or read in here -- it is quiet.

This particular Starbucks also has a drive-through, and is open to 1 a.m., longer than any other in the area.

Maybe it's due to differences in local architecture (they do certainly remodel when they open up in a new location, but are still constrained by the space and the spaces chosen aren't all that similar to start with, or something), but among the several Starbucks I've been to in the Boston area (which is far fewer than the Starbucks which exist in the Boston area), the layout is not really all that similar.

Actually, this Starbucks is unique in our area, too -- it's larger than the rest, and has the two rooms. I haven't seen any other like it -- I think it has to do with the particular layout of the building it is in, which used to be a bank branch office.
