I think between you and Michelle you'd have a strong basis for a shop. You should think about it. Differentiation in the market would be key.
I love the coffee shop culture. As I say, if I had $40k sitting around...
Re: starbucks, I don't much care for their house brew, though I don't do brewed coffee so much any more. My principal complaint about their coffee - in my case, cappuchino - is the inconsistency of the product. As a rule, the beans are over-roasted. It's "fast food" coffee drinks, and except in cases of dire need, I've about given up on them.
Should I ever open a shop of my own, I will roast beans on site. I've only been to one shop that did that, and the smell was intoxicating.
