How much caffeine is in Starbucks Pike Place (Grande)?
A Grande Pike Place packs around 310 mg of caffeine, the punch of roughly three home-brewed cups poured into one 16 oz cup. Starbucks brews unusually strong per ounce, so this 'regular coffee' hits harder than its plain name suggests.
| Serving | Caffeine | Sugar |
|---|---|---|
| 16 oz | 310 mg | 0 g |
Starbucks brewed coffee is unusually strong per ounce.
Will Starbucks Pike Place (Grande) affect your sleep?
Starting at 310 mg, it takes close to fifteen hours to drift under the 50 mg mark, meaning a Grande at noon can still nudge your sleep that night. An early-morning one is fine; an afternoon Pike Place is a common reason for a restless evening.
Heads up
At 310 mg, a second Starbucks Pike Place (Grande) in a day pushes you toward the FDA’s 400 mg ceiling — and that’s before any coffee or tea. Log everything in the calculator to see your real daily total.
