One Starbucks nearer to where I used to live transitioned to this mobile pickup model removing all the indoor seating. I have been there a couple of times since the remodel and it is just weird to walk into knowing it used to be a meeting place for people to talk and spend some time.

Now, if I go out to work, maybe once a week, I try to limit my time there to an hour or two tops. I also try to go to places that are likely to be more empty at the moment and not preventing any person from finding a seat if they walk in.
