Starbucks Substitutes in Albuquerque, New Mexico

On Tuesday, February 26th, at 8:30pm EST, according to a report by MSNBC, 7,100 Starbucks stores nationwide will be closing their doors, in an attempt to use that time to train and retrain baristas to prepare drinks the appropriate Starbucks way.

If you think that you are going to be having coffee or Starbucks withdrawals during the three hours in which Starbucks will be closed to the public, then in this article you will be guided to a place where you can still get your coffee fix.

This is a small coffee house, located near the Albuquerque airport. It is a very cozy place to have a cup of coffee, and the staff is just delightful. Compared to Starbucks however you won't find the modern-design theme; instead you will find a comfortable, home-like environment.

Saxbys Coffee

This coffee shop is a lot like a Starbucks. It actually offers much better drinks, in my opinion. When at Saxby's you will not even notice the difference in taste, service, or in the environment. The only difference is the logo, the colors, and the location. To view their menu, you can visit their website. You can also find different Albuquerque locations there.
