(7,396 posts)....to provide restrooms to all. Having to make a purchase is irrelevant. Maybe that is incorrect, but I think it has been law for many years.

(32,886 posts)wonderful. Before this finding a bathroom to use when you were out and about was not a simple task.

(89,246 posts)Maybe it wasn't official policy but starbucks has always been the place people saw as a place to use the restroom if they couldn't find anything else.
And so many people go to starbucks that even if people may not but something that time there are many others where they have and will.
I'm not much of a coffee drinker but i do like the smell and can see how it could help business also.
People will see things that they will come back to buy again.
