EXPASA Ashigara Service Area (EXPASA足柄サービスエリア(上り線)店)

This is the Ashigara service area on the other side of the freeway,
the one that heads back towards Tokyo.
And yes, we stopped here, too.

This Starbucks store was a lot smaller
and also located inside the service area building.
It was also very crowded.

This is the Soy Card we get when ordering a soy drink.
We give this to the barista handing out the drinks,
so they can double check to make sure you have soy.

EXPASA Ashigara Service Area (EXPASA足柄サービスエリア(下り線)店)

This is the Ashigara service area on the Tomei freeway.
It's a big service area with a huge food court and shops,
which is why it's always packed with people.

We stopped here on our way to Mt. Fuji
because it also has a Starbucks store.


I love how this Starbucks store uses bricks.

Starbucks Cold Cup Tumblers

Starbucks stores in service areas along freeways
have Danish Rusk on their menus for a limited time.

It was good and we ate it all in a matter of seconds.
I think we need them in a bigger cup.

Harajuku (原宿店)

This popular and often quite packed Starbucks store in Harajuku
reopened after its renovation this spring.

It's another store with the new Siren logo out front.
(which I forgot to take a photo of...)


My sweet friend from grade school was visiting
so we stopped by here to grab a drink while walking around.
We got drinks they currently don't have in NY.

Lime and Mint Green Tea Frappuccino

Coffee Soy Frappuccino + Jelly

I think he liked it. lol.
(notice the new Siren logo near the window)
