Starbucks serving wine and beer at new Vancouver Reserve Coffee Bar

May 30 2017, 12:51 am

After months…years…of speculation, it’s finally happening: Starbucks will be serving wine and beer, along with a special menu of eats.

The catch is, it’s just at one Starbucks: The menu debuts June 1, 2017 at their newly-opened Reserve Coffee Bar location in Vancouver’s Mount Pleasant.

The Main Street cafe recently revealed their spectacular transformation from a standard Starbucks to the elegant and specialized Reserve Coffee Bar, where patrons can not only fine their favourite coffee and tea drinks and snacks, but also a bar dedicated to serving up carefully selected roasts brewed with special methods, like siphon and pour-over.

Now Starbucks Canada will be offering an expanded menu at this location, including wine and beer and food, available during limited hours of operation.

Starting June 1, the Starbucks Reserve Coffee Bar will offer a menu of warm savoury foods and wine, beer, and cider. This menu will be available Monday to Friday from 2 pm to close, and noon to close on weekends.
