The world's first Starbucks. Opened in 1971 in Seattle's Pike Place Market. If you have ever wondered why the logo is a mermaid, this coffee shop sits along side the wares of the local fisherman.
Though though have decided to save the mermaids blushes and cover her up these days....
The original
The modern day logo
