Starbucks locations are starting to pop up in Paris, but there are so many other better coffee options that they are mainly frequented by tourists who don't know any better. I had some US colleagues over for work a few months ago and they took a taxi 3 miles to the Champs Elysees just to buy Starbucks coffees before our morning meeting. When I arrived in the conference room everyone had their Starbucks lined up on the table. I couldn't believe my eyes.
