Starbucks is trying out locally designed franchises in stores. The stores are non-Starbucks branded in order to recapture the feel of a local coffee shop, which would otherwise be threatened by the existence of Starbucks in its vicinity.

Starbucks in Dortmund, Germany



Starbucks in East Grinstead, England
