No, they don't suck less in Seattle. However, they do make a relatively consistent product regardless of location, so no matter where you are, you can find a cup of coffee. Personally, while I'm not a huge fan, I appreciate Starbucks; they are the one place in my parents' town in Bumfuck, WA where you can get a decent cup.

If anything, I think Starbucks sucks more in Seattle, mostly because there are so many other, better coffeeshops that just beat the pants off of them in terms of quality of product.
