I have never had Seattle's Best but I have tried local coffee houses. Most cannot be compared to Starbucks. I find that when I go to other coffee houses, you never know what you are going to get. I like going to Starbucks because they are consistent. No matter what town I go to, a Non-fat Vanilla Latte from the taste exactly the same.

Don't know what Settle's Best is, but I personally feel that Starbucks is killing a lot of local businesses and they have a single corporate theme. Going to individual coffee shops is much better because each of these places have a character about them and thus a different customer base, there aren't enough individual cafes around London anymore.

I got a caramel macchiato from Starbucks today. I don't drink plain coffee at all and I really need the caramel in it to really enjoy it. This is the only coffee I ever buy and I just might be addicted. lol Oh, if Starbucks is closed we go to Dunkin Donuts and get their coffee lite and sweet. It is pretty good for plain jane coffee. Anyways, I've only tried Seattle once but wasn't impressed with their drink selections.

Starbucks! I love their coffee and the service. I find the people who frequent Seattle's Best a bit snooty/snobbish =/

funny coz i also happen to have starbucks below our office. another funny thing is that i find myself drinking crappy coffee in our office since i got no money. a moron gave me a GC for starbucks coffee for a christmas gift and i end up selling it coz i'm in desperate need for freakin cash. bottom line is, if it really goes down to it you might find yourself drinkin crap just to satisfy yourself. just a thought.

I've never tasted Seattle's Best, but I won't judge something until I've tasted it. I can't stand Starbucks coffee, because it tastes burnt and bitter. The best coffee for me is at The Second Cup, right here in Guelph Ontario. The Second Cup is all over Canada, but the one here in Guelph is extra special.

Starbucks gets my vote! There is a drive-through Starbucks right across the street from my new job, so I'm sure I'll be there frequently. I've only had Seattle's est a few times in airports, and I recall it being rather strong and bitter.
