Always part of the neighborhood where we operate in, local Starbucks Coffee stores strive to build meaningful connections with the local community.

One good example is Starbucks Coffee Uptown 2, which recently held the first Community Connections activity by organising a Card & Board Games Day.

Regular customers who are professionals in the rather novel games namely El Grande, Bang, Munchkins, Risk and Settler of Catans provided coaching to interested customers in the store.

Amidst soothing music, cosy environment and great coffee, new friendships formed among partners and customers. The event truly saw how Starbucks could become an ideal place to spend time with family and friends.
