New Elliott cafe to offer Starbucks

The Timothy and Marsha Healy Café featuring Starbucks Coffee will be officially opening at the end of February on the main floor of Elliott Hall.

According to Shannon Bayliss, Chartwells’ Retail Director, the café is scheduled to open Feb. 28, but the date is still tentative.

The café will be similar to the Kresge Library Café and Café O’Bears in the Oakland Center. Students can expect to find a variety of Outtakes pastry and food items on the menu.

An online survey being conducted by Chartwells shows that students are most looking forward to purchasing Starbucks Frappucinos at the café.

“I am psyched that there is going to be a Starbucks on campus.  I would be willing to pay the extra money because it is absolutely amazing.  It is a nice alternative to Caribou,” sophomore Katie Fulks said.
