You would think Buddy Holly would have broke the news sooner!
Dunns Bros. Coffee is now closed. I was just there on Wednesday and went there again tonight and they had signs up.
It was a bad location and with 5 Starbucks in a 5 mile radius, I don't see how it could have survived.
So I went to Starbucks instead...

. Starbucks sounds really good right now.
No, he only posts the good stuff happening. He doesn't want to admit businesses in San Antonio are capable of failure.
San Antonio:
1 coffee place(Starbucks)
1 grocery store(HEB)
1 pro sports team
Starbucks really needs to add a shot of Baileys in Coffee to its menu.
Dunn Brothers has that Raw Sewage taste that I look for in my coffee which Starbucks has failed to provide.
Agree'd.
I was about to respond (not really) until I realized that this was Mouse, as well as like five other posters in this thread.
Black Iced Tea is fricking awesome at Starbucks. I'm addicted.

But that's too bad about Dunn Bros. I kept meaning to go try it out, but never made it. My son's friend worked there, so that's kind of a shame for her, but she's a cute college girl who will find something else. You would think with all the Bandera traffic that they might have had a fighting chance.
Well, I like "Seattle’s Best" better than other places. I normally get a large Mexican Mocha with Caramel added, and have it as a four shot. I have to tone it down to a three shot with Seattle Best, because they make some kick ass coffee!
Starbucks has been buying compe ion here. They are trying to become a monopoly! I avoid them because of the anticompe ive nature.
Charbucks just isn't that good unless you are into those thousand calorie sundaes that you try to pass off as coffee in your diet.
You want some real coffee, go to Whataburger or Dunkin' Donuts if you've got one close.
Starbucks makes a good cup of joe. I don't really give a about subsidizing mom and pop's coffee house so whatever.
It's just in a weird place for a strip mall. Most of the major shopping is over at 1604/Bandera where you can find 4 Starbucks (including the one in Helotes). I just thought it was an odd location to be opening their first store in SA ever there. They should have opened a store closer to 410 since there aren't really in coffee shops down that way.
I ended up at the SB on Guilbeau. I was telling the girl they closed and she said that every morning, a Dunns employee would come in wearing her uniform and buy Starbucks
I thought they were good.
People know that I drink the Joe, so I usually get a SB gift card or three during the holidays, but other than that, I make mine at home. Yes, I actually use my cappuccino machine. I priced it out a few years ago, and I think it was like 45-50 cents per Grande sized 2-3 shot drink. It's probably more now, with dairy going up, but I also pay less for coffee, $7.99 for 2.5 lbs of really good Costa Rican French roast arabica whole bean at Costco.
Have some 18 year old girls wearing short shorts serving the Joe and they would still be in business.
You should not have to respond you should have made the topic Mr.I know everything that goes on In San Antonio.
Your off base that person is not mouse!(not really) until I realized that this was Mouse,

The E.S.E pods are great because there isn't any cleaning up the coffee it's easy and neat.
Illy is highly addictive![]()
P.S. My brain switches itself on only after the first morning coffee, without it I'm a zombie![]()
There's actually one of those drive-thru ice houses like that near SAC.

That's what we (and millions of italians) use at home.
Seriously try this http://www.illyusa.com/AB1666000/sho...ctGroup_ID=266 in it. Lavazza is pretty good but I guarantee you'll like my suggestion.
Never had it. I'll give it a whirl over the holidays.
Of course, a touch of this as well.
