Sound.
If you’ve ever been absolutely dashing to work and didn’t have time to stop for some sweet, sweet caffeine, you know the true meaning of utter hell.
You’re wrecked, you’re in a bad mood, and your organs eventually start to shut down.
Harrowing stuff.
This particular scenario might soon be no more though – at least for people who live in and around Co Clare – because Ireland’s first drive-thru Starbucks has opened up and getting your morning fix is about to get a whole lot easier.
The store opened its doors today at the Shannon Free Zone adjacent to Shannon Airport.
The new drive-thru includes outdoor seating, indoor seating and a coffee dock and meeting hub area that will service the entire zone.
Ray O’Driscoll, managing director of Shannon Commercial Properties, said:
“We are currently working on the biggest investment programme of the millennium years in the Shannon Free Zone.
“We’re developing world-class property solutions and providing facilities for amenities such as Starbucks is a key part of our redevelopment strategy.”
The store will employ 15 people.
