    @chicagopescetarian is taking us inside the world’s largest Starbucks and it’s right on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile. ☕️ 💡 What to Know: 1️⃣ The Starbucks Reserve Roastery Chicago spans five stories and around 35,000 square feet, making it the largest Starbucks in the world. 2️⃣ Inside, you’ll find multiple coffee bars, an Italian Princi bakery, an experiential coffee floor, cocktails, and a seasonal rooftop terrace. 3️⃣ The centerpiece is a towering 56-foot steel coffee cask, with roasted beans moving through tubes around the building. 4️⃣ There’s even a spiral escalator wrapping around the central cask, one of the most recognizable features inside the Roastery. Would you stop here for coffee in Chicago? 👀 📍 Starbucks Reserve Roastery Chicago, 646 N Michigan Ave

    Did you know Chicago is home to the world’s largest Starbucks? — and it’s not just coffee, it’s five floors of pure experience. From rare Reserve drinks to rooftop views on Michigan Ave… this one feels like a tourist stop and a local flex at the same time. Have you actually explored all five floors? 👀☕️ #starbucks #starbucksreserveroastery #chicagocoffeeshops #coffeeislife #chicagogram

    🍁 If you’re coming to Chicago this autumn and are a fellow espresso martini fan, you’ll likely enjoy the rotating selection of espresso based cocktails (+a full bar) at @starbuckschicagoreserve on Michigan Ave. 🥃 The classic espresso martini is still my favorite! 🍸 If you’ll be on the #magmile this holiday season, this might be a spot to pop into to warm up. Check for their winter specials soon! ❄️ #starbucks #starbucksreserveroastery #espressomartinis #tinitime #psl #cocktailhour #chicagococktails

    📍 STARBUCKS RESERVE ROASTERY // Mag Mile, River North, Chicago I love a good glow up and seeing the ol’ Crate & Barrel sit empty was sad. @starbuckschicagoreserve moved in and made it feel like it was their home all along. There’s something for everyone: gift shopping, coffee stock to peruse, hot drinks, cold drinks, boozy drinks, pastries, a rooftop, and more. I enjoy going there for their espresso martinis. They seem to have a rotating seasonal one which was hot honey a few weeks ago! A little spicy for me but if you can handle the heat you’ll love it! They’re now offering a pumpkin spice espresso martini, yum! I also really like their flight: Orange Cacao, Molé Spice and Cherry Limone. They have a full bar with lots of creative and well-crafted cocktails. Cheers! 🍸 🥃 🍒 🍊 🎃 ☕️ #pumpkinspice #psl #espressomartini #cocktailschicago #starbuckscoffee #starbucks #magmile #rivernorthchicago

    When I talk to locals about the world's largest @starbuckschicagoreserve on @themagmile in Chicago, they often refer to it as overrated... However, I gotta say that I enjoy coming to the Chicago Roastery for various reasons! 1. I love their little rooftop. Beautiful flowers and perfect Magnificent Mile views in a relaxed atmosphere. 2. You get to try coffee specialties and homemade foods that you can't get at the "regular" Starbucks. 3. It's an experience that matches different moods. Want to try coffee specialties? Have one of the flights! In the mood for an Espresso Martini? Head to the fourth floor and enjoy bar vibes. There's something for everyone! Does it get crowded? Absolutely - if you go on a weekend, you'll see long lines. But if you head over there after a nice beach yoga season with your friends on a weekday, you should be fine ☕!

    decent experience but overall not quite worth the price. you only actually make one drink which was the lone highlight, however the other areas of issue drag the experience in the red. there's quite a bit of ambient noise so hard to hear everything. There is also a lack of choice or customization with the experience - you can only make the standard espresso drink, the 2nd drink is the standard espresso sampler flight (no choice on flavors and you do not get to make it; they make it for you) and the food item was not very food in our experience and no choice in food item (they gave us olive bread which poorly pairs with espresso martinis)

    Jackie and the other guy (I want to say his name was George?) were incredible, I would book another class just for them two! They were incredible and Jackie was incredibly genuine and made the class so much fun! Best experience I had in Chicago! Please provide them the recognition they deserve!!

    The Espresso Martini masterclass at the Starbucks Reserve was incredible from start to finish. The 4-story roastery has an amazing atmosphere, and the bar setup for the class was top-tier. Making the drinks ourselves made all the difference. The classic version was the best Espresso Martini I’ve ever tasted, and the global takes, especially Spain (orange bitters) and Mexico (with a nice spicy touch), were delicious and creative. Special thanks to George and Artemis, who were fantastic teachers! They shared great history, techniques, and coffee facts while keeping the vibe fun and engaging. (Side note: the Tiramisu Iced Latte, croissant, and pistachio cookie at the bakery are also must-tries!) It’s a premium experience, but 100% worth the investment. I did this solo and had an unforgettable time. Highly recommended!
