If there is, I didn't know about it

Only Starbucks I can think of is definitely not within walking distance.
EDIT: Welllll, at the very least it's a 30-40 minute walk from where I'm living.

I think once I saw a place that on campus that "proudly serves Starbucks coffee" but that's about it. If you really really need your Starbucks fix you can bus it to Locke Street, if I don't have anything to do I sometimes go.

I'm pretty sure there are 2 Starbucks on campus. One under ITB and one under CNH. Both places most people don't go.
Maybe they're other cafes though, my memory does not serve me well here :O

Who needs fancy coffee? Real coffee drinkers drink black, none of this milk and sugar nonsense.

As of this upcoming year there will be no starbucks on campus :(
The two places that sold starbucks products were the lounge in ITB and the basement cafe of CNH. Those two places are closed and being renovated with new products.

This sucks. I like an overpriced coffee in the morning, especially when I have to trek to ITB for morning classes. I guess William's will have to do.

Pssssh, who needs coffee? Truely hardcore tired people (i.e. every engineer ever) drink energy drinks (i.e. Rockstar).

For some reason those things never seem to work for me.
The two times I drank rockstar, ever, I was still sleepy less than an hour later
(Coffee doesn't work for me either, actually)

I've found I've built up a tolerance to Rockstar in the normal sized cans. It works if it's the 710 mL one.
Other than that, I've found that NOZ is most effective out of all of them. Only problem is, it tastes like cancer.
Red Bull is the worst. Has zero effect on me.
