Moliners who want to get their coffee fix from a global conglomerate with over 8,500 outlets worldwide will finally get their chance as a Starbucks debuted it's first store in Moline today. The store is running a special with free coffee and pastry samples until 6 p.m. The new coffee shop is located opposite Wal-Mart on the north side of 41st Avenue. The article reports that their hours are from 6 a.m. until 11 p.m. Monday through Sunday, which I guess is pretty much every day there is, unless I've missed something. The store will also be unique in that it has a drive through window.
That does it. Moline is now officially on the map.
The do got's some good coffee. No doubt about it. And every now and then, The Dope can handle a double espresso when I feel like taking a rocket ride. But it tends to make my heart beat sound like the opening to Van Halen's "Hot For Teacher".
