We’re not blessed with much variety when it comes to chain restaurants in Stoke-on-Trent. There’s plenty of them, but they all belong to the Big 4: McD’s, Burger King, Pizza Hut and KFC. Having such little choice, I’m depressingly familiar with all of them and visit Kentucky Fried Chicken a couple of times a month.
What I Want from a Chain Restaurant:

I've visited many other coffee shops too, of course, and had many good cups of coffee, but no other place makes me feel as good, as comforted, as satisfied and as well served as Starbucks ...
