SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Zoo is getting a Starbucks. The coffee chain is coming to Brackenridge Park and will replace the Train Cafe across from the entrance to the zoo.
"This Starbucks location, located across the street from the zoo, will be a fully operational Starbucks serving not only zoo visitors, but park visitors, the local business community, and area students," said Tim Morrow, president & CEO of San Antonio Zoological Society.
