While I agree with you that I would prefer to see a Settlement Co here, I believe Starbucks is set to start serving alcohol this year in Canada.
the thing about Starbucks is that it really is a pedestrian traffic driver. It is a 'destination' for a lot of people - meaning they would go out of their way just to go to Starbucks. It really activates any sidewalk with pedestrian flow.
