Starbucks Rant

Over the last year or so, I have become a big Starbucks fan (in the UK) as they seem to have really improved on the flavours of their coffee to the point where they became my favourite.

Of course I was pleased to learn that there is almost a Starbucks at every major hotel in the whole Las Vegas area.

Sadly Starbucks of Vegas is very disappointing 

1) Its too expensive. I was expecting lower prices than the UK (as most things in the US are cheaper than in the UK)

2) Service is painfully slow (5minutes plus per drink) to make EACH and every drink. I don't know what is so different between the way they make the drinks in the UK and the USA.

3)  Inconsistency - I've now tried 5 different Starbucks venues in Las Vegas, each and every one of them manages to make the same drink taste different. Surely they should be following guidelines/rules, set by head office, to make them all taste the same.
