The newest full-service Starbucks on the University of Calgary campus is now open and ready to serve you.

“Based on the popularity of our two current Starbucks coffee shops, we’re excited to open a third on campus,” says Voula Cocolakis, director, Ancillary Services.

The new Starbucks, located at Crowsnest Hall, features indoor seating and outdoor patio and offers the same selection of coffee, espresso, beverages and food available at the MacEwan Student Centre and Yamnuska Hall stores. People working, living, learning or visiting the University of Calgary will now have a new spot to gather.

The three Starbucks outlets on campus employ more than 90 students.
