Starbucks

This is by far the best Starbucks I have ever been to in spite of an issue or two. I believe Starbucks has a slightly burnt coffee taste to their roast and of course when you get it, it is too hot to drink right away. This store was not the norm for sure. The ladies that waited on us during our stay were great, they knew my order by the second day. Of course I was at a 3 visit minimum this particular week. The caramel lattes were so smooth that I was surprised they were the usual burnt taste. Our party has contributed this to the use of Canadian water so who truly knows what the secret was but they were awesome. Now the prices are a whole nother subject. They prices seem very close the US prices up until they add on the three separate taxes at Niagara Fall. Some local tax and two hotel taxes. So your drink ends up being about $10 CAD. So paying USD will be a little cheaper but you will get change in CAD. The tip is to pay with your credit card so even though they ring you up in CAD your card company will only charge you the best daily conversion rate to USD when you get your bill. Of course we were on vacation so we splurged a little because I could not have afforded that $30 habit for long.
