The original Starbucks near Pike Place Market is a popular tourist attraction in Seattle. It's something people visiting always want to see and as a result I've taken a bunch of friends and family there. After living in Seattle for three years I've been into that Starbucks maybe 20 times or so. Say what you will about Starbucks coffee, visiting the original site is a fun experience considering the breadth of what the Starbucks empire has become.
