Starbucks Las Vegas

You can't take coffee into an art museum. So this Starbucks decided to bring the art museum to the coffee. Every Starbucks has unique art on one wall. This one has detailed pen-and-ink drawings of the original Pike Place marketplace where the first Starbucks store opened. They are not Louvre quality, but they are certainly art gallery quality. It's interesting to get a taste of the company's history in black and white. I loved the fact that this Starbucks offers FREE masks if you somehow walked in without one. A super nice touch. There's plenty of parking since this Starbucks is in a quiet corner of a major shopping center. The patio faces a crowded parking lot. But at least it's covered, sheltering patrons from the punishing Las Vegas heat. Before the pandemic, the store was always crowded. Locals love to gather there. That sometimes made for longer than usual wait times for your order. During the pandemic I was in and out. The store is right off the 215 so it's easily accessible. It's a great place to stop for a beverage after a shopping spree. I must admit I spent way too much at the specialty lighting store nearby on the chandelier over my new dining room table....
