      It’s not the only one but it’s by far the most pervasive. So if you live in a small town there’s a good chance it will be your only option for espresso drinks.

        Yep, it’s easily the most dominant chain in a lot of areas. Roughly half the coffee shops in my neighborhood are Starbucks.

      The other big one is Dunkin Donuts, but they’re even worse. The coffee tastes like dishwater and the donuts taste like plastic.
