They've been putting major effort into improving their coffee. BK as
well. Neither has what one would describe as "great coffee" but it's
a lot better than it was and I no longer have to disguise the foulness

Well, actually Starbucks is pretty good coffee flavored milkshakes.
Where you get in trouble is when you mistake the flavoring for coffee
and try to drink it straight.

Actually as restaurant coffee goes theirs is quite highly regarded by
