About the weather, it’s rather exceptional the way it is now, due to strong south winds. Normally it would be much colder. It can also change rather unexpectedly, from one minute to the other, that’s why you see Cretans all wrapped up, they know this.
There are actually 3 Starbucks in Iraklio (but only since a year or so). Apart from the one on 25th August Ave. which you photographed, there is another one on Demokratias Ave., one on Androgeou Str., and a big one in the newly-built Talos center (about 1.5 km along the sea going west from 25th August Ave). The only other single Starbucks on Crete is in Chania.
Enjoy your holidays!
