Coffee is one of my favorite things, so I thought this was a good time to let readers know that one of our local coffee places may be closing in the next six months or so. Coffee drinkers, it doesn’t matter if you like one sugar or two, more creamer, no creamer, or iced coffee, most people enjoy a their coffee cup each morning. And it’s great to find a local hang out to share the love of coffee with others.
The Lockport US and J has an article today about the local Starbucks in Lockport closing. The article refered to economic hardships for the company that owns Starbucks. There are about 600 stores that are closing. The article written by Joe Olenick also listed 2 other stores on the closing list, one in Cheektowaga and one in East Aurora.
There are some local community members that are starting petitions to try and keep the South Tranist Store open. If you would like to get more information, please go to www.saveourstarbucks.com
