Starbucks proposed outside of Regency Mall

A Starbucks with driveup may be going in near Regency Mall at 2805 S. Green Bay Road. Dave Herbeck, of Clubhouse on Wisconsin, is applying for a conditional use permit to operate the coffee house chain. It would replace the Joe To Go, which operated at the same address.

If approved, it would be the third Starbucks, and fourth coffee shop, between Durand Avenue and Washington Avenue. There's a Starbucks near Washington Ave and S. Green Bay Road, the Barnes & Noble at S. Green Bay Road and Durand Avenue sells Starbucks and across the intersection there's a Caribou Coffee with a drive up.

  1. Is this going in place of Joe to Go? It looks like the same spot. Hope not, I'd take Joe to Go anyday over Starbucks.

  2. Sorry, I just re-read the story. Sad to see that it is for sure taking the place of Joe to Go. I like Seattle's Best much better. Guess I'll have to go downtown to Java Vino for Altera.

  3. This was approved by the city plan commission at yesterday's meeting.
