I’ve been in Atmore for years and they just want to die as a town, nothing new in years. It’s like they want the town to be a historic monument and never advance. Sorry no profits in that, advance or die, I’m all for the Indians doing it up in a big way at least I can go actually eat somewhere decent and take my daughter to multiple movies of our choice. I can even go bowling afterwards.

This WOULD be great, however, this wouldn’t have happened if not built on Wind Creek land so they can get a percentage of the profit. In order for them to get a cut, they are having to locate it across from the Smoke Shop. Currently, there are valet parking spots where the new Starbucks will be, and that means that my husband (who works in Valet) is going to receive less tips! Of course PCI doesn’t care about their employee’s; they’d much rather ANY DAY to benefit their own pockets because they’re not getting enough as is.

When people can’t park, the valet runners can’t retrieve their vehicles. With less retrievals comes less tips to support the families of valet. This is greatly going to effect our household income. THANK YOU SO MUCH, PCI.

Although, I’m not a Starbucks “regular”, I do hope this will be a great place for someone to work. Just because it might not be your scene doesn’t mean it’s bad for our town. As long as The Coffee House in Atmore continues to serve well, this shouldn’t hurt what they have going. The Atmore locals are loyal people.

Man. Everyone is really down on a new company in town that will make some jobs. Not to mention that Starbucks does a lot more for their people (pay, insurance, etc.) than a lot of other places.

Well I hope they dont go out of business………..

But I do hope a bunch of homeless folks find it a warm place to hang out for days on end..
Dont care for their politics and just dont care for that nasty burnt bean water they sell..
Circle K and McDs have the best on the road coffee…

@Jimmy
Now we all know the majority of people that dine here are going to be the same right-wingers that drive their children through the drive-through in their huge suburbans to get the babies a coffee. Then heading to Chick-Fil-A for a twenty dollar kids meal.
I dont know of anyone else that thinks this is a “liberals spot”, everybody knows Starbucks is a rich white thing. (This is coming from a white guy)
