  • McDonald's could be cutting into Starbucks' sales,

    "The cold brew frappe is literally everything I’ve ever wanted in a coffee... straight up tastes like tiramisu."

    Aside from the cold beverage being half the price, it has around 290 calories, which many loyal McD's customers are satisfied with.

  • Restaurants that focus on morning coffee are being hurt by McDonald's
    Because McDonald's does breakfast and lunch, by introducing specialty coffee drinks with their already full menu, it is an easier shift than for coffee companies to start offering food and entice people to come for later eating.

    At Starbucks, customers expect consistent, innovative, high-quality coffee or blended drinks. While McDonald's caters to a different customer who might not necessarily be interested in coffee. It's just a convenient option on the menu to accompany breakfast, or as a quick, cheap caffeine fix."]]>     2020-06-05 00:22:56 UTC https://padlet.com/wallacea17/ni0vcb31fvbrva46/wish/612108392     Who Are Starbucks’ Main Competitors? nxlai https://padlet.com/wallacea17/ni0vcb31fvbrva46/wish/612117200 Starbucks has been fighting its competitors – Dunkin' Donuts and McDonald's – for the top position as coffee king for several years.

    "Ignoring its coffee in favor of baked goods, there may be more painful lessons yet to learn."

    Ultimately, it is causing for its coffee to lose its central role, leaving behind its core customer.  McDonald’s is taking advantage of this opportunity by attracting Starbuck’s price sensitive customers with their reasonable priced cappuccinos, macchiatos, and other popular McCafe beverages.
