Dublin Starbucks Stores Give Free Coffee To Front-Line Workers

DUBLIN, CA — Front-line workers can get free coffee throughout December from Starbucks locations throughout the United States, including the eight in Dublin.

Starbucks has locations in Dublin at: 7197 Village Parkway; 7499 Dublin Blvd.; 7200 Amador Plaza Road; 5138 Dublin Blvd.; 7904 Dublin Blvd.; 4440 Tassajara Road; 2800 Dublin Blvd.; and 2710 Dublin Blvd.

In a statement, Starbucks said it will offer front-line workers a free tall brewed coffee, hot or iced, throughout the month as a way “to recognize the significant efforts of the front-line responder and health care community” during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It has been an extraordinarily difficult year, especially for the front-line responders who are serving our communities,” Starbucks Vice President Virginia Tenpenny said in a news release. “We want to show our deep gratitude for those who support and protect us every day with a small gesture of kindness and a cup of coffee.”

Those eligible for the offer include doctors, nurses, public health workers, pharmacists, dispatchers, firefighters, paramedics, police officers, dentists and dental hygienists, mental health workers (therapists, psychologists, social workers, counselors, etc.), hospital staff such as janitors, housekeeping/security and active-duty military, according to Starbucks.

Customers will need to identify themselves as one of those workers in order to receive the free coffee.
