It was reported over this past weekend that another Starbucks is opening a shop on the Third Street Promenade. That makes it one for every block. There’s a Starbucks on Wilshire, another at Center Court and now one’s going in between Santa Monica Boulevard and Broadway. Its location is within feet of two businesses that serve coffee and pastries.

In fact, there are more than a dozen coffee houses on the Third Street Promenade. It appears that Santa Monicans can’t get enough java.
