I had already noted that we got a Starbucks here in Gloucester. Bizarrely enough, the Newport News newspaper picked up on this.
Congratulations, Gloucester, you're on the map.Maybe it still says something about how small town we are that they stop on their way by - "usually every weekend". Folks, this county has only one major road running through it. You have to pass this store to get to any retail classier than Walmart. And you usually come past here weekly?
The Starbucks map.
Starbucks is open and doling out coffee, Frappuccino and lattes in the newly expanded and refurbished Farm Fresh on Route 17. Customer Courtney Childress couldn't be happier Starbucks landed in Gloucester.
"I was surprised because we don't have a lot of stuff in Gloucester," she said.
Childress, 14, used to have to wait to go to Newport News for her beloved caramel Frappuccino. Now she bugs her mom to stop in on their way by, usually every weekend.

Umm. . .why the hell does a 14 yr old need a freaking Frapp?
Now Gloucester can get on the map with kids drinking those and gaining weight due to the ton of pointless calories in the bloody things.
