It's finally here! After years of anticipation, Starbucks' sixth Reserve Roastery and third in the U.S. opened its doors in Chicago on Friday, November 15. Located in the massive former Crate and Barrel building (it covers 35,000 square feet!), the coffee playground takes over an entire corner on Magnificent Mile and houses five stories of coffee, pastries, pizza, sandwiches, cocktails, tasting flights, merchandise, and more. We got to take a sneak peek and let me tell you—it did not disappoint. Below, everything you can expect to find inside the world's biggest Starbucks.
FLOOR FIVE
The only floor we didn’t visit was the very top—it’s home to a rooftop terrace that will be open seasonally; naturally, during Chicago’s winter, it’s closed. During spring and summer, it’ll surely be a popular spot to sip on a drink and ‘gram your stuffed cornetti.
