Starbucks is tightening its policies by restricting access to its facilities for non-customers. The coffee giant announced on Monday that only paying customers will be allowed to use its spaces.
The company also introduced a new code of conduct for its North American stores, outlining prohibited behaviors such as discrimination, harassment, smoking, vaping, outside alcohol consumption, drug use, and panhandling. According to SFGate, the updated guidelines will be prominently displayed in all company-owned locations across the region.
