My oh my...people were upset about a Dollar Store in JT and now a Starbucks in Yosemite. In neither case did they detracr from what already was there. If someone wanted to put an adult store in the Louvre you might have a legitimate complaint.

I want a Starbucks back in Baker on the way to Vegas. I've biked through a few times on desert tours, and it was great to get a quick fix. Closed a few years ago, which really surprised me because of the massive traffic on I 15. NBD for a little outlet in the Lodge. Valley blows anyway. It's all choss.

Is it a full fledged Starbucks or just the coffee, like they give away on planes?
It will be StarBucks in the 25th century, automated by Kwiki ...

the addition of Starbucks is part of Aramark’s renovation project of the food court that will be renamed Basecamp Eatery. The new space is expected to open this spring and will offer sandwiches, salads, soups and specialty coffee drinks.

Got a climbing association with Peets - remember first trip eons ago with an old yose vet, he pulls a small bag of Major Dickensons out at 5AM. It was like religion back then and Starbucks is garbage in contrast. But yes both are big coffee these days - Peet's got bought out a few years ago by some german company.
Anyway, the food has mostly sucked forever in the valley, but at least it's expensive.
Bring back the pasta loft.

Why won't Aramark dump OE800, and make Pilsner Urquell the cheapest liquid in the Valley? If they're going upscale with coffee, they should go upscale across the entire beverage spectrum.
And, whatever happened to the Chongo Smorgasbord of cream cheese, jelly, Grey Poupon and other condiment packs at Degnan's Deli? I guess all that "free food" came at the cost of Yosemite's trademarked names.

I poked around the Village and it's not going to be a big deal. In Degnan's now they have 2 large coffee pots with PEETS on them. The word I picked up is that in the "Base Camp Eatery," it will be similar. But we shall see.
Hersey is a multinational company and the park sells them.
BTY, the new remodel of Degnan's is great. 2 free wifi areas and the Loft is redone into a nice environment.

I was kidding about the pea milk.
//I see it in a grocery I shop but I'm a cow's milk 1/2 and 1/s feller all the way.//
I'm just testing google to see if I start getting pea milk ads.
NOBODY would milk a pea. They have no teats.[Click to View YouTube Video]

Cant believe someone didn't want to put a real brewery or restaraunt there
There's an Applebee's at Fisherman's Wharf, despite San Francisco being one of the top culinary destinations in the U.S. if not the world.
