Hastings HardBack Cafe

Their coffees actually taste better than Starbucks, and I own stock in Starbucks. They also have a better variety of cold beverages, and not all of them are coffee, which is great. They have some highly tempting kids drinks as well. I think another area they beat Starbucks in is with their flavored syrups you can have added to your beverages. Their Orange Cream Dream is fabulous.

I like the Hastings cafe because I like the store a lot and it is convenient. I always end up spending more time there that I plan browsing dvds, magazines, etc...so I get a coffee. The drinks are great and the punch card is really nice. But the service is really slow. You always have to ring the bell, and your order takes several minutes.
