I stopped by one of Starbucks’ mobile-focused pickup-only locations in Seattle this week after the company announced that it was sunsetting the small-format stores.

The coffee giant is walking away from a format it once bet big on: the mobile-order-only store, dubbed “Starbucks Pick Up.” Around 80 to 90 of these stripped-down locations — places with no seats, no counter, and barely a presence — are being shut down through 2026.

Approximately 80 to 90 Starbucks "Pick Up" stores across more than 20 states will be impacted. Some locations are facing permanent closure while others will be converted into traditional coffeehouses at a later date, according to Niccol and the chain's website.
