We stopped in at the Chicago Roastery on Michigan Ave, which is the worlds largest Starbucks and what a place. The last time I was in Chicago, and we walked past this place, there was a literal line out the door and along the sidewalk just waiting to get inside but not this time. There was no line, so we were able to walk in and took our own walking tour up and around each floor, each with a different offering. A very cool place that was actually quite busy and bustling.
Since it was late morning we reluctantly passed on partaking in and sampling martini flights on the fourth floor but it is definitely on the list to do for my next visit!!
This wall was created using different Starbucks empty coffee bag, showing their labels, to spell out "Chicago", very neat and a popular spot for folks to take pics in front of.
We grab a couple coffees, hung out for a bit and watched the baristas in action and the endless flow of peeps. A worthwhile take and one I'm looking forward to visiting again!

Fun times!
