Title: McD taking on Starbucks in 14,000 locations
Post by: 240 is Back on January 07, 2008, 03:30:34 AM
They're putting in Coffee Bars in 14 thousand McDonalds to take on starbucks.

While I prefer Starbucks lattes, it's hard to argue with a sausage/egg/chz McGriddle in the morning...

Coffee bars on top of the new premium McDonalds coffee? Their new coffee is quite good imo.

now that starbucks has an automated expresso machine, it's taken the magic out of their name brand, and McD's can grab some of those profits.

They took all the pizza ovens out in Canada. Do they still have pizza at McD's in the USA?
