Starbucks With Amazon Go

Post by Alpha8472 »

There is a combination Starbucks and Amazon Go store in New York. It looks like a Starbucks with an Amazon Go store inside. You order on the Starbucks app for drinks and you gain entrance to the inside of the gates with the Amazon app. It is listed as a Starbucks store on the Starbucks website, but it also has an Amazon store inside. Is this a restaurant or a retail store?

It blurs the line as to who actually owns this place. The Starbucks is more of a pickup location but there are dining pods and work spaces. There is Starbucks wifi as well. You can order all of the food and drink items of a standard Starbucks. There is just less Starbucks merchandise. The store itself is a real Amazon Go store. Are the employees Starbucks employees or Amazon employees? It looks like the baristas will have to be Starbucks employees. Amazon employees do not know how to make drinks.
