Starbucks Shuts Dozens of Southern California Cafes Today Amid Nationwide Restructuring

Dozens of Starbucks cafes across Southern California are closing their doors today, September 28, as the coffee giant implements a significant $1 billion nationwide restructuring plan. At least 69 locations are confirmed or anticipated to cease operations, impacting communities from Orange County to Los Angeles and the Inland Empire.

Notices posted at affected stores indicated these closures would take effect by Sunday, September 28. While a crowd-shared Google sheet has identified numerous impacted sites, some closures are still awaiting official verification.

This widespread shutdown is part of an aggressive overhaul spearheaded by Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol, the former CEO of Chipotle. The restructuring aims to streamline operations and is impacting hundreds of stores nationwide.

Specific areas experiencing closures include multiple locations in Orange County (such as Orange, Brea, Fullerton, and Huntington Beach), the Inland Empire (including Barstow, Corona, and Hemet), and a substantial number across Los Angeles County, stretching from Beverly Hills and Culver City to Santa Monica and various parts of Los Angeles itself.
