First-ever West Seattle Starbucks getting a face lift, and then some

From the just-in-case-you-were-wondering-too files: After a few notes asking if we know what Starbucks is doing with the remodel of its original West Seattle store, we stopped by for a photo today and e-mailed Starbucks PR, which answered our questions as follows:

Our store at 4101 SW Admiral Way is getting both an interior and external refresh. When work is finished, customers will see an expanded patio area with bench and table seating, as well as a new modern awning to replace the previous canvas version.

The interior of the store will also be updated and will feature a wood-paneled espresso bar, new furniture, a remodeled restroom and a new mural on the North wall. We think it’s going to be gorgeous and can’t wait for West Seattle to see the finished product when work is complete at the end of the month.

Remodeling is standard course of business for Starbucks stores and typically done on a regular basis in order to provide the best experience to customers. There are no other remodels in the West Seattle area to announce at this time.

    Nice! As long as the ‘expanded patio area’ doesn’t take up parking space – the lot’s packed more than half the time I go there!

    I wonder if they will be adding a Clover coffeemaker to their store. WSB, did they mention anything about it? I go out of my way to pickup Clover coffees at other Starbucks. Its so addicting.

Sorry, comment time is over.
