2 new coffee shops: Starbucks is expanding in Dayton’s suburbs

Starbucks has added two new Dayton-area coffee shops in highly visible and well-traveled locations.

Both new stores are located in Dayton’s south suburbs, and their recent openings continue a recent trend of the nation’s largest retail coffee chain targeting suburban communities surrounding Dayton for expansion.

A Starbucks opened in February at 860 W. Central Ave. (Ohio 73) just east of the I-75 interchange in Springboro, a store employee told this news outlet Monday.

That Springboro opening follows by a few weeks the opening of one of the largest Starbucks shops in the Miami Valley, at 919 Lyons Road at Miamisburg-Centerville Road (Ohio 725) in Washington Twp. The 3,400-square-foot structure previously housed a KeyBank branch.
