Here's when you can get your Starbucks fix in Mandurah
Starbucks' latest WA offering is set to open in Mandurah this Thursday and is offering a freebie for the first 200 customers.
This will be the coffee chain's fifth WA location after coffee lovers lined up around the block to get a sip when its first store opened in Piara Waters in October last year.
Mandurah coffee lovers can get their fix from June 5 with the Pinjarra Road store opening Monday to Friday from 5am to 10pm and Saturday to Sunday from 6am to 8pm.
The new café offers a stylish and welcoming 250sqm space where customers can relax, recharge, and reconnect over their favourite handcrafted beverages.
On offer will be the classic flat white or Starbucks' famous sweet seasonal treats.
To celebrate the launch, the first 200 customers through the doors from 5am will receive a free 16oz reusable Cold Cup.
The store also features a convenient drive-thru, allowing customers to enjoy their favourite drinks and snacks on the go. Starbucks Mandurah has a convenient drive through but there have been concerns online about the traffic. Credit: Supplied
'We're thrilled to bring the Starbucks experience to Mandurah,' said Mandurah Store Manager Dan Hambly.
'Starbucks Mandurah is a space where the community can gather, connect and enjoy the little things, one cup at a time.'
However, some social media users have expressed worries about the traffic as the new Mandurah store is close to the Mandurah Forum and two sets of traffic lights.
Opening day of the Piara Waters store saw cars queued up around the block from 4.30am and blocked traffic in the area.
Starbucks said the Piara Waters opening surpassed Hong Kong Disneyland as the largest Starbucks store opening ever in the Asia Pacific region.
Starbucks Mandurah is one of two new WA stores opening this June, following launches in Piara Waters, Murdoch, Clarkson, and Ellenbrook.

‘Kidding': Starbucks worker shocked she was dress coded at work
A shocked worker thought her boss was 'kidding' when she got 'dress-coded' for having 'too much chest showing'. Elyssa Marie works at the coffee giant Starbucks in the US and is going viral for posting a very demure outfit that still got her in trouble at work. The clip amassed 2 million views, and Ms Marie argued it was ridiculous that she got dress-coded because the only thing showing were her collarbones, and she was 'confused' about how that could be considered inappropriate. 'God forbid I get a job at Starbucks with huge tits,' she joked on social media. Online, people were quick to support the worker. One said it sounded 'unfair,' and another said they were 'confused' because they couldn't see any problem with her outfit. 'What they want a damn turtle neck?' One asked. Another reassured the worker that she looked 'completely fine,' and someone else inquired if this was just 'rage bait.' Ms Marie said it wasn't. 'I've never visited Starbucks and thought wow, these baristas show too much neck,' someone else argued. Ms Marie then shared another video where she wore a blank button-up shirt and claimed she was told she needed to button it all the way up. She called being dress-coded of her outfit 'ridiculous' and argued she could wear these outfits to church because they are conservative. In a follow-up post the young worker said she'd never had a 'problem following rules' and is always reasonable. But she didn't think this clothing violation was fair. 'I never had a problem with the dress code. The problem is I thought I was in dress code, and I was in dress code, and I felt like I was being targeted because of my assets,' she said. Ms Marie's dress code saga comes after Starbucks announced the chain released a statement that said, 'Starting May 12, we're evolving our dress code in all stores to focus on simplified colour options that allow our iconic green apron to shine and create a sense of familiarity for our customers. 'The more defined colour palette includes any solid black short and long-sleeved crew neck, collared, or button-up shirts and any shade of khaki, black or blue denim bottoms.' They also revealed that all partners would be receiving two new company branded T-shirts, free of charge. It's been seen as quite a controversial policy by staff with a video going viral on X of Starbucks union workers protesting in response to the new dress code.

Cult chain Starbucks sparks fury among Gen Z with new change
Cult US coffee chain Starbucks has sparked uproar among Gen Z workers after drastically changing their uniform. In a video posted to X, Starbucks union workers in Seattle can be seen marching on management in response to the new dress code. The clip was captioned, 'Starbucks workers across the country are facing understaffing, inaccessible benefits, discrimination, and low wages. 'Instead of fixing these issues, Starbucks decided to introduce an unpopular, more conservative dress code.' A barista wearing a bandana and a party hat can be seen addressing management, saying, 'I don't understand how [the dress code] is in good faith of letting us express ourselves.' Another worker then says, 'We're just expected to lay down and accept it,' as union members clap and cheer. Early last month, Starbucks confirmed they were updating their dress code for a 'more consistent coffeehouse experience.' In a statement released by the chain they said, 'Starting May 12, we're evolving our dress code in all stores to focus on simplified colour options that allow our iconic green apron to shine and create a sense of familiarity for our customers. 'The more defined colour palette includes any solid black short and long-sleeved crew neck, collared, or button-up shirts and any shade of khaki, black or blue denim bottoms.' They also revealed that all partners would be receiving two new company branded T-shirts, free of charge. The clip, which has been shared across social media countless times, left viewers divided. 'Flare inspires workers … it's science,' said one viewer. 'Dress code equals great service. If barista is happy, my coffee will likely taste better,' agreed another. 'I don't want to buy coffee from people that can't dress to express,' said a third. Others were quick to slam the clip as 'entitled' and 'snowflake behaviour.' 'No one is paying these people to 'express themselves,' said one. 'Get back to basics and serve the customers,' said another person. Starbucks Workers United, is a labour group that has unionised workers at 570 of Starbucks' 10,000 company-owned US stores. In a post on their official Instagram, union organisers outlined why the changing dress code is unpopular among workers. 'It's regressive. They already tried to get rid of pride flags in 2022. This is a freedom being taken away,' it said. 'It will likely result in out-of-pocket costs of buying new pants to match the colour scheme.' 'Queer people have a hard enough time styling clothing to their needs as is.' 'This is a problem trying to a fix an unrelated problem. [Starbucks] should be focusing on hour cuts, understaffing and turnover,' it followed. The American chain first entered the Australian market in 2000 and expanded to nearly 90 locations by 2008, before closing more than 70 per cent of its stores that year due to poor sales. The dress code uproar is just the latest in a seemingly controversial year for Starbucks. Just earlier this year, the chain introduced a new initiative aimed at 'fostering customer connection.' The new policy requires store employees to write personalised notes on customers' cups. The directive, which went into effect in February, encourages workers to add a note such as customer's name, a drawing, a simple affirmation, or a well wish. 'We don't have time for this,' declared unhappy workers.
