McTaggart, I'm pretty sure there's not! I've had it elsewhere.

I spend most of my free time in a cafe in my town. So yes.
IronOxide:
I like non-chain places largely because I don't know any chains that make bubble tea. However, this means that when I go to one of our local non-chain coffee shops, I just end up getting the bubble tea instead of the other great beverages they make.

I don't think anyone was saying that they were a bad company. The ones I've been in have very nice employees, they make decent chai, and I really like their baked goods. But honestly, the only time I ever go there is when my mom gives me a gift card someone gave her because they thought she drinks coffee. (She hates coffee more than I do.) The only thing that really bothers me is how many stores there are. Having 10+ stores in a mile radius is ridiculous.
And Lalaladida is right - their tea (that isn't chai) is not good. Even honey or milk and sugar does not make it taste better. It always has a slight burnt taste and I know it's not because I'm letting the bag seep for too long, as I take it out once it's been in long enough.

Decent chai from a Starbucks? The only ones I've had were really watered down.
