Starbucks finally listened to reason and confirmed they are opening a location in Brussels. It took way too long to get them to see the obvious demand but we forced their hand. Enjoy your coffee because you earned this victory.

Paris, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Vienna,... all those cities have got a Starbucks Coffee, why not Brussels Sure, it sounds like a futile petition but Brussels is the capital of Europe, a very important city where businessmen, worker and young people are going. A Starbucks Coffee shop would be very useful because people would gain a lot of time and you know that, time is money. Imagine that you\'re a businessman, in Brussels, you just woke up and you\'re in a hurry. You need a coffee to be less \"zombie\" but they\'re just some coffeeshop where people are going when they want spend some time with their friends...Yes, you can go drinking a McDonald coffee but it don\'t taste like a real coffee...So that\'s why a Starbucks Coffee would be very useful in Brussels. But no, Starbucks is not just for businessmen or boss, it\'s for young people too. I like going outside with some friends but the coffee in the coffeeshop or restaurant are sometimes too expensive or just no good. And those coffeeshop don\'t sell any \"Frapuccino Banane Java Chip\" or a good Sumatra coffee. And there is an environment that is very \"joyful\" (I forgot the right word) in the Starbucks Coffee For all those reasons, I think it would be very useful, practical and cool to got at least one Starbucks Coffee shop in Brussels. Let\'s sign now! ------------------------------- Paris, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Vienne... Toutes ces villes ont un Starbucks Coffee, pourquoi pas Bruxelles A premiere vue, on dirait une petition inutile mais Bruxelles est la capitale de l\'Europe o

Starbucks keeps ignoring Brussels while other major capitals get all the perks. I am sick of settling for terrible local coffee when we deserve global standards. We are not letting them get away with this silence.

The momentum is building and the suits at headquarters are finally starting to notice that Brussels is being left behind. We are exposing their neglect and they cannot keep ignoring this massive demand for a real coffee experience in our city.

Finally! I am so tired of having to hunt for a decent latte. Brussels needs this so bad.

YES PLEASE. I need my frapuccino fix when I am out with friends. The current options are just not the same.

Always have to wait forever in normal cafes. Would be nice to just grab a quick coffee on the way to work.
