Panera is a better meeting place and their food is good. I make better coffee at home than Starbucks does. |

I think McDonald's entry into the coffee category really hurt Starbucks...badge value isn't there w/McD's, but the price/quality value is. |

I live in the UK - so I love Dunkin Donuts in the US, but they're gone from this market. We have Caffe Nero, great coffee if you're ever over here! |

Local coffee shops are favored when I'm "out for coffee". ഊ ഊTim Horton's is reliable when I'm on the road and want coffee in a hurry. |

Biggby's, right around the corner from our house, or Caribou, just down the street from my 'standard' Starbucks, and also offering outdoor seating. |

In Louisville, that's Heine Bros. and Java Brewing. But hey, White Castle has a great "traditional" coffee that rivals McDonalds. So does Krispy Kreme! |

My niece & her husband have a coffee plantation in Africa, she has a roasting business & coffee shop in S. Carolina. I get all my coffee from her so I prefer my "homemade" brew because of the quality of coffee I use. |

I don't really have one. Most of the chains listed above provide a very different experience and product than Starbucks. Not necessarily better or worse - just different. |

I'd switch to Caribou in a minute if there was one in my neighborhood. Its not that they offer a better ambiance, but I have always liked their offering better when I've encountered their shops on vacation or in airports. |

consistency of specialty drinks is not as good from one Starbucks to another than it used to be. The baristas need more training. |

with local coffee shop a close second but I can't afford to hang at coffee shops more than 1-2 times per month. Homemade is best. |

Surprisingly - McDonalds has captured my morning coffee dollars. An associate at work kept showing up with coffee and brought me one. It was really good - and so much more for only $2.50! |

McDonald's is getting much better at producing a reasonably robust coffee. And Tim Hortons coffee if weak and rather than raise price they shrank the size of everything. They've lost me to McD's. |
