Has Starbucks taken over the UK?? I swear I’ve never seen so many Starbucks as in London!! For lovers of good, strong brewed coffee, this was a lifesaver for us!!

I was in London three weeks ago and my wife and I said the exact same thing. We stayed on Piccadilly (Le Meridien) and we could not turn our heads or walk a single block without seeing a Starbucks. Or a Pret a Manger or Cafe Nero, for that matter.
