Lucky for people who love "Star Dad", Starbucks, a coffee shop chain, is planning to build a four-story boutique flagship store (Roastery flagship) on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago, which will be the company's largest store in the world.

Howard Schultz, chief executive of Starbucks, said the company plans to open its boutique in Zhicheng in 2019, replacing the existing home decoration store "Crate & Barrel" on Michigan & Erie on Michigan Avenue. This is not only a coffee shop, but also a romantic experience center and theater, where customers can not only see rare coffee varieties, but also witness the whole process of roasting and packaging.

As the first person to propose a Starbucks boutique, Schutz wrote down the idea of making the Willy Wonka of coffee in 2009 and announced the chain project in a magazine. Chicago, as one of the most important sites for the Starbucks boutique project 30 years after its establishment, is expected to cover an area of 40, 3000 square feet. It is not only the third boutique after Seattle and New York in 2014 (planned for 2018), but also successfully set a record for building the world's largest storefront of 30,000 square feet in China. Schultz said he would spend millions of yuan to build the boutique. "it's a big bet, but what we're seeing is development over the next 50 years," he said. "

Jill Assad, a spokesman for Crate & Barrel, said the store on Michigan Avenue, 27 years old, is still open to customers and is expected to close in early 2018, while another store on North Avenue Street will remain open.
