Officially opened in October, 2019, this stand-alone outlet is located in the heart of Grand Turk's Cruise Port area.
From the website:
Although situated on a cruise port, Starbucks will be the first café of its kind to call Grand Turk “home,” giving locals and tourists a feel of the true Starbucks experience through a unique customer service and Starbucks range of signature beverages and food offerings. These offerings include exquisite coffees from around the world, such as the Asia-Pacific and Latin America regions.
The stunning pink exterior keeps the authentic Caribbean feel of the café, where the indoor palette was kept light to keep the tropical theme. The back of the store features a mural, hand-painted by artist Maria Camila Bernal Toro of Remedios Art, showing the Siren — a Starbucks icon — with her double-tail bent underwater. The artist recreated the Siren to evoke the same tranquility and pleasure so many travelers in the past were rumored to search for among the Sea. Using a chromatic composition which was inspired by the natural coral and mystic of the island, the Siren inspires peace and warmth — recreating the history of Starbucks in a contemporary and tropical language."
