To usher in the summer season, Starbucks has dropped a new cafe menu that includes the new Crispy Grilled Cheese sandwich.
Starbucks' summer 2019 cafe menu features two new standout vegetarian options. The first is mouth-watering Crispy Grilled Cheese sandwich, which is made from a three-cheese combo of mozzarella, parmesan, and cheddar. The whole thing is seasoned with a little bit of garlic and butter, and served on sourdough bread.
Of course, if you're looking to get your veggie fix, there's also the new Baja Black Bean Veggie Wrap, which combines quinoa with seasoned black beans, salsa slaw, spinach, carrots, jalapeno cream-cheese spread, and pepper jack cheese.
While Starbucks still has plenty of meaty cafe options, it's summer 2019 offerings made the chain a bit more accessible to vegetarians looking for a quick bite.
