FAQ About Starbucks
Is it OK to sit in Starbucks without buying anything?
Technically, Starbucks policy states that you should make a purchase in order to use the seating areas or Wi-Fi. However, whether or not it's okay to sit in Starbucks without buying anything may depend on the location, the time of day, and how busy the store is.
If the store is relatively empty and you're not taking up a seat that someone else might need, you may be able to get away with sitting for a short time without making a purchase. However, if the store is busy and customers are looking for seats, it's best to purchase something to show that you're using the space as intended and not taking advantage of the store's hospitality.
In general, it's important to be respectful of the store's policies and customers, and to use your best judgment when deciding whether or not to make a purchase.
