Starbucks Delivers Is Coming To Boston

BOSTON, MA — This is a grande deal. Starbucks is launching a partnership with Uber Eats that will allow for delivery service to customers - and Boston has been chosen as one of six cities where it will expand into.

The company announced Tuesday that it's expanding its Starbucks Delivers pilot to Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Washington, D.C. It launched in Miami and will begin Tuesday in San Francisco. When the system is fully rolled out, it will be available in about one-third of its U.S. locations.

Customers will be able to order drink and food items to be delivered to them. A special "packaging solution" will keep the coffee hot for deliver, which will be set in a 30-minute window.

The Uber Eats booking fee with be $2.49.

It's unknown how far outside the actual city limits - if at all - the service will be available.
