The 5 Coolest Starbucks Locations in the World

By Caroline Knight at Syracuse University

Live, love, and chug coffee. Your bucket list is about to get much more interesting with these five unique Starbucks locations all around the world. They are outstandingly more innovative, more modern, and more distinct than a typical roadside Starbucks.

1. Amsterdam, Netherlands

This Starbucks location occupies what used to act as a vault for an old bank in Amsterdam. The wooden blocks on the interior ceiling look like blocks of pure gold. Walk in desperate for caffeine, walk out feeling like a million bucks.

2. Train from Geneva Airport to St. Gallen, Switzerland

As if trains these days are not luxurious enough, Switzerland added a Starbucks to up their train game. This train allows passengers to order Starbucks while traveling from the Geneva Airport to St. Gallen, Switzerland.

3. Tukwila, WA

Not only is this Starbucks American, but it’s sustainable too. Crafted out of shipping containers, this Starbucks will leave you feeling good about the environment. It’s a perfect place to enjoy a Green Tea Latte while watching the sunrise.

4. Dazaifu, Japan

This modernly designed Starbucks practices the idea of recycling. It can be deconstructed and rebuilt in an easy fashion while still representing a Japanese garden. It would be hard not to enjoy a cool iced tea at this Zen location.

5. Prague Castle, Czech Republic

Feel free to sip your Venti coffee next to Prague Castle and act like you’re royalty. This Starbucks has magnificent views of the surrounding area. It’s high society made tangible, thanks to Starbucks.
