Any Starbucks Coffee without a drive-thru or on a list of possible unionized locations is a location under threat of closure. And so it goes for the long standing Starbucks location at Tuxedo Park Shopping Centre. A note in the door announced their closure.
As one of the only places you could sit outside, it will be missed. Some have said it was because the location was about to unionize. There is no indication that was about to happen. This was a mall with vitality but has had more than a year of building a condo that just opened. The parking lot has been chaos. But now that it has opened, it seems an even better reason to stay open.
No, the likely reason is that Starbucks wants drive-thrus wherever possible. This doesn't bode well for Charleswood down the road. It has been overwhelmed with Tuxedo refugees. It doesn't have a drive-thru either.
