Starbucks Reserve Store Set to Open in the Empire State Building

Starbucks will be opening a new Reserve location in the Empire State Building on November 16. According to the company, it is “like nothing you’ve seen before.”

The new location will take up 23,000 square feet and three floors of the Empire State Building, Foodgressing reported. 

If you are not super familiar with the coffee chain, you may be wondering “What is Starbucks Reserve?” According to the company’s website, “Starbucks Reserve is a selection of the rarest, most extraordinary coffees Starbucks has to offer. It’s where we push our own boundaries of craft, developing a unique roast for each individual lot before experimenting with coffee as an art form—brewing, aging, infusing and blending it into imaginative and often surprising creations. Through our Roasteries and bars, we share our discoveries and the enjoyment of exceptional coffee with the world.”

The Starbucks Reserve Empire State Building location will be the only store that offers Cold Pressed Espresso. In addition, customer favorites and seasonal favorites will also be on the menu. 

This unique location also offers food options exclusive to the Reserve, a full cocktail and mixology menu and “small group classes that provide hands-on learning grounded in coffee, beverage, and mixology craft,” according to Foodgressing.
