New Starbucks opens this week

November 26th, 2007 at 02:46pm Deborah Austin

Another Starbucks is coming to Rockford — at 7474 E. State St., near the corner of East State and Bell School Road.  That’s in addition to the other Starbucks on East State, near the Mulford Road intersection. 

The new Starbucks Coffee Co. — with a drive-through window, outdoor patio and indoor seating area — is scheduled for official opening this Friday, Nov. 30 at 5 a.m., but the store is hosting a special event the evening before, with free samples of beverages and pastries.  The “friends and family” event, open to the public, is from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thurs., Nov. 29.

This particular Starbucks store will be donating coffee and pastries twice weekly to The Carpenter’s Place Outreach Center, 1149 Railroad Ave., Rockford, a ministry for homeless persons.
