Are there any Starbucks Coffee in Dominican Republic?
In the 80's there was a real sugar shortage in DR. All you could find was brown sugar. Maybe some beige sugar. My family hated it ! It was such a big deal for them. I was a kid so I didn't really understand.
why some of you think there won't ever be a starbucks here is beyond me.
like i said near the beginning of this thread.
there is a starbucks in the DR.
it is near the marina/cinema in casa de campo.
it has been there for some time.
it hardly ever has any customers.
it is over-priced and crap.
similar to most other starbucks around the world.

Is it a true StarBucks? or a Knockoff. there have been many of those there, starting with McDowels(looked just like McDonalds), then Hooters that I am aware of.
This mentions Mexico and Puerto Rico as the only latin america sites so far with plans for chile an peru

bienamor .... yes it is real.
if you google 'starbucks casa de campo' you will see a lot of links starting from around 2008.
Casa de Campo Living Starbuck Coffee now available at the Marina!
the link you give, if you don't mind me saying so, is dated 2003.
boch
.....oh yes.....and one good thing going for it is that it does have free internet.

This is the reason why if it they do build it it in Santo Domingo... they will come.
Sorry, but they serve Starbucks coffee (that you can get in US grocery stores) but they are NOT a Starbucks Coffee Shop.
At least according to their January 20, 2010 disclosure statement:
Starbucks Corporation: International Partnership Summary 1/20/2010
sounds just like hooters, they had all the stuff but when you wanted to take pictures the stopped us. my link may have been from 2003 but they are not real. does not claim to be one. thats better than the hooters we had in the capital, they claimed to be the real deal
from the prior link
That’s right! Starbuck’s brand coffee is now being served at the Coconut Mall at the Casa de Campo Marina. In fact, they happen to also represent a few other interesting brands, like the Cheesecake Factory! And the best part… FREE WIFI!! It’s almost like being in Seattle… but with better weather.
says nothing about being a starbucks, just their coffee and cheesecake factory's cheesecake.
Hmm, ok if I would have read the forecast page first I would have seen that es already mentioned 2 years ago....
Starbucks is the nastiest brown water served up to mankind.
Why not support local business with a tastier cup of coffee?
now there is a stroke of genius. a foreign coffe shop selling swill in a country which produces excellent coffee.
if it does open, Dominicans will flock to it in the beginning, to say that they are part of the in crowd. then they will go right back to their espresso sized cups with a half pound of sugar.
