Guess what whiny babies - chains that are in or connected to a casino generally cost more than the usual. Just like it is at the airport. Sucks, but just don't buy it if you don't like the prices. I wish you luck finding a cheaper latte on the strip. \n\nIt's a typical starbucks and yes slightly more expensive than the usual, but you're overpaying regardless, so what's a little more right? Employees were funny and friendly, place was clean. And strip locations are usually exempt from cheap deals, but yay for half off frapps during happy hour 3-5pm thru May 10th.
