Downtown Starbucks on West Gray

Here's what you do: Take your wallet out of your purse before walking into this Midtown corporate coffee haven. Once inside, order your drink and dig through your purse. "I think I forgot my wallet," you cry, a damsel in distress. Most likely one of the many good-looking, suited types who frequent the location morning and afternoon will come to your rescue.

I am a 20 something, African American female and can honestly say�This is very true. I can�t do anything but smile when I read this post. I am a frequent at this Starbucks location and have had my share of "Let me buy you a cup of coffee's". Let it be known that I�ve often wished I had more time to sit there for hours with my laptop just to watch the options roll in. GREAT PICK! How ironic!!! So far, I�ve sipped my favorite latte with an attorney and pre-med student, and lets not forget the local Metro bus driver!...not bad!
