Pike Place Starbucks

Original Starbucks

The Very First Starbucks



Address: Phone:
1912 Pike Pl
Seattle, WA 98101
+1 206 448 8762

Description

The world's very first Starbucks store opened here in 1971 as a coffee bean roasting house. It began selling retail coffee in 1983, after marketing genius Howard Shulz joined the company and traveled to Italy, where he fell in love with delicious espresso and cappuccino. He envisioned a new era of coffee culture and soon brought (and quickly expanded) the tradition of the neighborhood coffee house. Today, you can still get your favorite Starbucks drink at the Pike Place Market location.
