Within the building complex houses one of the biggest Starbucks flagship store known as Starbucks Reserve Roastery Shanghai with around 2700 square metres of roastery floor space. It is like having an entire coffee factory. There are two floors, namely floor 1 and floor 2. On floor 1, there are six sections, namely section 1 to section 6. Section 1 is the Roasting Area where one can watch how the master roasters unlock the unique flavour nuances. Section 2 is the Symphony Pipes and Bean Silos. Here, one can observe how the roasted beans are delivered to the five copper pipes known as Symphony. Section 3 is the Main Bar where coffee meets craft! Section 4 is the Pairing Bar where one can elevate one's coffee experience and then take home a freshly scooped bag. Section 5 is Handpicked at the Roastery and finally on Section 6, one can indulge on pastries, pizzas and breads. On floor 2, there are 4 sections, Section 7 to Section 10, which is a continuation from Section 6. Section 7 is the Coffee Library. Section 8 is for tea lovers, Teavana. Section 9 is the Cold Brew Tower and Section 10 is the Long Bar. This Starbucks is packed with people but there are personnel which help with the traffic within Starbucks. For users travelling on wheelchairs and strollers, to get from one floor to another, there is no ramp and the only way is to use the elevator. Anyway, the address for Starbucks Reserve Roastery is 789, West Nanjing Road (Near No.1 Shimen Road), Shanghai.
