- Los Angeles, California – This location is unique because it used to operate as the Gilmore gasoline service station. Located at the corner of Highland and Willoughby Avenue in Los Angeles, it shut down 20-years ago but has since been restored as a drive-thru keeping its 1950s nostalgia.
- Seattle, Washington – The Starbucks located at 1912 Pike Place has the appearance of the flagship store, which opened in 1971. After moving in 1976 to the Pike Place Market spot, this replica was designed using the same floors, fixtures, and counters as the original.
- Chicago, Illinois – This is a Starbucks Reserve Roastery—a shrine to coffee and one of many found all over the globe. It is also the largest Starbucks in the world with five floors, all featuring different menu options!

Africa

Asia

- Kyoto, Japan – Built as part of a renovated 100-year-old traditional wooden Japanese townhouse, this Starbucks blends the coffee company’s experience with traditions of the Kyoto culture. Designed to feel like a traditional townhouse, visitors can see multiple Japanese gardens on the first floor and sit in one of three tatami rooms, complete with floor cushions. Just take off your shoes and enjoy!

- Kuwait City, Kuwait – This is the first Reserve location in the Middle East so, just like the one in Chicago, it has extra-special amenities. It was built in The Avenues—an extremely fancy shopping mall—under a glass ceiling, so you can enjoy patio seating no matter the weather. The interior was inspired by the art nouveau movement of the early 20th century and also showcases the history of Arabic coffee.
- Hanoi, Vietnam – The Duy Tan store is a renovated former residence providing a “homey” feel inside the city. The store blends the original brickwork alongside modern chevron wood cladding to create this fun and eclectic vibe.

Recently, Starbucks has opened a subsection of stores they refer to as signing stores. “Dedicated to people united by sign language and Deaf culture,” they are not limited to American Sign Language, as these stores can be found all across the globe.
The first signing store opened in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2016. Building on their initial success, a second location opened in Penang 3 years later. Since that time, several more have opened, promoting global accessibility for the deaf community in cities like Washington DC, Tokyo, and Beijing.
