One of the greatest debates in coffee right now is Starbucks versus the local coffee shop.
Starbucks has changed the game when it comes to coffee. The global chain is on seemingly every street corner and has forever changed how people buy their coffee thanks to mobile ordering through its addicting mobile app, which accounts for roughly a quarter of the company’s orders.
Starbucks is convenient and ubiquitous, but the neighborhood coffee shop still has a lot of pull with consumers who want to support their community and get a cup of Joe that they can’t get anywhere else.
This week’s Task of the Week pits the two coffee rivals against each other. In other words — Which has the better cup of coffee? Starbucks or a local coffee shop?
