Seattle is known for its great coffee, but living in or around Mountlake Terrace has its perks!!!! 

I have had lots of coffee around Seattle and my very favorite is still Chad & Vicky's Espresso in Mountlake Terrace, WA.  Mountlake Terrace and Brier residents have a real treat in this coffee shop located in the most unlikely spot!  Chad & Vicky's Espresso is located on the corner of 228th St SW and Cedar Way INSIDE the Chevron!  They also have an amazing Drive-thru on the south side of the Chevron which I am not ashamed to say I frequent at least once a day!

Chad & Vicky's Espresso is a small town and big service operation and it seems big brother has taken note! 

Starbucks has decided to move in RIGHT next door.  Chad literally stands in the shadow of the giant Starbucks sign as he serves up his delightful coffee complete with charm.  But he should not worry because his secret weapon is the friends and followers he has developed for over a decade in the coffee business- I call them the "Chad Die Hards" and they are very loyal!  I guess I am one, too.

What does Starbucks have to do with your housing value?

Apparently it is quite a validation of a community's worthiness!  I am pleased for the residents in this part of Mountlake Terrace and its housing values now that Starbucks has finally decided to grace us with its presence, but do we really need one on every corner gobbling up the local mom and pops?????  Just my two cents....
