Starbucks Stores in Canada Selling Beer and Wine

Yes, it's true. Select Starbucks store locations in Canadian cities are going to start selling beer and wine by the end of the year. The changes are going to take place in some locations in Toronto and other large cities across the country. This new concept for Starbucks has had a successful run in the United States already and now they're bringing it up to us!

I'm really looking forward to this change, myself. Personally, I like going to places like Remedy or Sorrentino's in Edmonton because you can go with a group of people, some of whom want a hot beverage and others who want a glass of wine or beer, and everyone gets what they want. It comes down to the more options a customer has, the more likely they'll find something they want off your menu.

I'm not sure which Edmonton Starbucks locations will make the change, but I'm going to keep a look out!
