Starbucks is finally in Belgium!
2008 August 20
Thanks to Luc Van Braekel who gave me the heads up that Brussels has finally opened its first Starbucks! Tracking back to his website, I saw a reference to the Moodie Report which gives the details and location of the first ever Starbucks at the Brussels Airport as being at the landside Departures lounge. Autogrill, the local Starbucks partner, (link will open to the French version of the announcement of the Starbucks opening) is hoping to open additional branches.
After our visit there in December 2007, one of the most popular posts which has elicited quite a number of comments (mostly unsigned, though =( ..) was that one about there being no Starbucks in Belgium. Finally everyone (including Alan) can rejoice as they can now have their favorite brew in Brussels. Looking forward to getting a mug from this one!
They just had to do it some three years AFTER my visit! What great news…if only I knew when I would be back in Brussels again. HeHe!
