The coffee chain opened a new store this week at 415 South Main St., featuring a drive-thru. The store opens daily at 5 a.m.
Starbucks already operates locations in West Hartford on LaSalle Road, Kane Street, Albany Avenue, and New Britain Avenue.
The expansion comes during a tumultuous time for the coffee giant.
Earlier this month, the company announced it is streamlining its menu and discontinuing some of its most popular drinks, including several Frappuccino options, the royal English breakfast latte, and white hot chocolate.
Starbucks leaders said the move aims to reduce wait times and improve consistency. However, the decision has sparked mixed reactions from Frappuccino devotees.
The company also announced last month it would shed 1,100 jobs to refocus efforts on the company’s core values.
