The free refills will be served in coffee mugs, glasses, or a clean personal cup brought from home and are only available on the same visit at one store. The refills excludes Cold Brew and Nitro Cold Brew, Iced Tea Lemonade, flavored Iced Tea and Starbucks Refreshers® base. Initial purchase must be made in a reusable cup or “for-here” serveware.

Starbucks has taken a page from its past − offering free refills and bringing names on cups and a condiment bar. Beginning on Monday, the coffee chain has brought back some familiar aspects that were trademarks of Starbucks from its roots in Seattle.

Starbucks' policy requiring purchases in order to use restrooms or hang out at the coffee shops began today. The chain's free refills era also starts.
