Today, only a very small number of people know this information. Information that only Starbucks enthusiasts know is that things are completely free at Starbucks.

Firstlydon’t be alarmed.

This is Starbucks itself. What this means is that according to the regulations, anyone can use Starbucks anywhere in the country for free. it’s possible. Currently, there are 68 Starbucks stores in Gangnam-gu and 458 in downtown Seoul.

“If you get hot on the road, take a break!!” ​

You don’t even have to place an order. I actually checked with the customer service center and they said that I can now stay without having to order anything at the store. Is this tyranny at a directly managed store? lol ​ Even if you go into Starbucks and just sit in an empty seat, an employee will never come and tell you to order or leave. But they said that this actually happened because of this incident that happened 6 years ago. A Starbucks employee in the United States reported a black man to the police for sitting without ordering. This incident led to widespread protests and even a boycott against Starbucks, accusing it of racial discrimination. In the end, Starbucks headquarters closed more than 8,000 stores and provided racial discrimination prevention training to 170,000 employees. And they created a rule that anyone who enters a Starbucks store is considered a customer even if they do not place an order. This applies equally to Korea. When it’s really hot like these days, you can just sit down and rest.

The second is the bathroom

You can also use this for free without placing an order. Even if the door is locked, if you ask the staff for the password, they will kindly give it to you. Really, ever since I found out about this, I can’t be that happy when I see Starbucks on the street at an emergency light. ​ “When you feel like pooping, go to the clean and close Starbucks near the station!!” ​

 

The third is the coffee bean grinding service.

Even if it’s a brand other than Starbucks, just bring it to Starbucks and ask for it to be ground, and they’ll grind it for free. ​ Any coffee beans can be used as long as they are not products that have already been opened, have no expiration date, or have a very strong scent. Grind them like this.

They even put them in a neat paper bag, so if you don’t have a coffee bean grinder at home, from now on you can just go to the nearest Starbucks.
