Starbucks in LaVale to open Sept. 16

The store is located at 1263 National Highway, just off Interstate 68, beside a Taco Bell and Ledo Pizza. Construction of the store was slowed by the recent supply chain issues that impacted building materials.
"This location will employ 25 partners (employees) and feature a drive thru and café," the spokesperson said via email.
Starbucks Corp., the world's largest chain of coffee houses, is an American multinational retailer and roaster headquartered in Seattle.
