In an effort to keep customers and employees safe during COVID-19, Starbucks is requiring all customers to wear masks at company-owned locations in the United States. The policy starts Tuesday, according to the company website.

Even in locations where a local government mandate is not in place, customers may not enter a store unmasked and will have "various options to order their Starbucks, including ordering at the drive-thru, curbside pickup through the Starbucks app or placing an order for delivery through Starbucks Delivers."

The company said it was committed to playing a constructive role in supporting health and government officials as they work to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
