Just a heads up, most of the Starbucks in Manhattan have removed all their power outlets (last month, or the month before) to prevent people from spending time there working.

I guess having people say "my company started from humble beginning in the local Starbucks" is no longer valuable to them.



I don't blame Starbucks for that at all. I saw far too many people sat there with an empty coffee cup they probably purchased three hours beforehand- they're a coffee shop, not a co-working space.


Starbucks on Delancey still has outlets. Sometimes someone will bring a power supply strip, however one time they shut down the bathroom.
