Starbucks is Coming to Damascus

When KFC/Taco Bell closed permanently in Damascus (26141 Ridge Rd.) rumors swirled about what may replace it.

This morning we received multiple reports that Damascus will get its first stand-alone Starbucks location (there’s currently a Starbucks located in Safeway).

We’re also told this location will have a drive-thru.

Damascus residents have already shared concerns about the impact the new Starbucks might have on traffic. It looks like we’ll find out soon, as the location is expected to open by the end of 2019.
