Hi guys, I was wondering if there is a starbucks on campus? If not is there one near by? :smile:

No, but there is a Costa on campus as well as a place called Curiositea which has a variety of interesting hot drinks. Many of the other cafes on campus sell hot drinks as well.

Nearby, there's a starbucks in Coventry, Leamington and Kenilworth.

To get to Kenilworth from campus it takes roughly 15 minutes and the bus goes every half hour. For Coventry or Leamington I would expect that it would take a bit longer although the bus would go more frequently. You can look up the exact locations of Starbucks cafes on Google maps as well.

I was wondering about that too, there's plenty of places to get ripped off for your coffee on campus :lol:

First year's alright as you can go back to your kitchen to make coffee. When you get to second year and you have to buy it, it gets more expensive :tongue:

I'm guessing from your previous posts about step that you're doing maths. If you do a fourth year then you'll have access to the kitchen in the common room and can use that to make coffee.

I fear you'll find the Starbucks in the UK to be unrecognisable, then. Since it is **** and costly.

Tons of costa machines on campus, and 'grumpy mule' is 1.90 a cup - though my theory is that warwick students love the image of holding a coffee and pretending to work much more than actually drinking it.

Yeah, that is true :lol:

To anyone who wants to buy coffee in the library etc.-use both an Eating at Warwick card and a Grumpy Mule loyalty card to bring the price down as much as possible.
