Verdict: Ideal location for a quick Starbucks fix at Duisburg Hauptbahnhof train station, but better order your coffee to go because it's quite dark inside. Service could be friendlier and quicker. On the upside, the coffee is excellent as always, there is free wi-fi and the couches provided are comfortable. On a Friday morning in February of 2013, I walked into this Starbucks at Duisburg Hauptbahnhof. Beside the two baristas, the shop was totally empty. Five minutes after I had ordered my drink, another employee asked me again what I had ordered, and just then started preparing my coffee. Staff in general could have been friendlier - and quicker, of course. Free wi-fi and comfortable couches brightened my mood again, but this location is still not what you would call a cozy place to hang out. Instead, you wonder why locals seem to avoid this place on a busy day! The coffee itself was excellent as always from Starbucks, and a fully stocked condiment bar was available. Another positive was the short way to the railroad platforms. But overall, this location is not the premium experience that the Starbucks brand promises. read more
