Every figure below is calculated from the same 100-post public sample as the panel above, observed Oct 5, 2026, 2:33 PM PDT, with the report’s current formulas. Publication dates are UTC calendar days. The sample records no time of day, so it shows no posting hours.
The quick answer
Across the 99 posts @starbucks authored in this 100-post sample, it averages 81,645 likes and 1,118 comments per post. These are values recorded at observation, not live account metrics. The 8 ranked rows below link to their source posts.
This is a retained sample. The observation time marks when its public posts were read; it is not a separate observation time for every field. Public posts and their counts may change or become unavailable.

Posting cadence
The retained posts span Mar 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026 (UTC publication dates). This sample does not prove continuous collection or a steady publishing rhythm.
Inspect the dates and gaps directly. A count averaged over a window can conceal bursts, pinned posts or missing coverage, and does not show how often a viewer saw the account.

FAQ
Is this an official Starbucks analytics report?
No. Instaseer is independent and not affiliated with Starbucks or Instagram. Every number here is derived from Starbucks's public posts, and each row links to the original post so you can check it yourself. Private metrics such as reach, impressions, saves, and ad spend are not public and do not appear anywhere in this report.
How many posts does the report read?
This sample reads 100 recent public posts. When you run a report on your own competitor you choose the post count, and the report covers posts and Reels together.
Can I run this on any Instagram account?
Research requires an available public Instagram account. A public account may still be unavailable to the source or return a limited window. Private accounts are outside the supported scope.
