I have to say, when I am in China, I mainly rely on Starbucks. It's not easy to get a decent cup elsewhere. There was one other place... the name is failing me, but they are much less common than Starbucks. Of course, there are some local places, but they are hit or miss.
I swear that some places serve up Nescafe. :( Ah yes, it's Costa Coffee. They aren't half-bad.

I've actually been to those. One thing I like a lot about most coffee houses in China is that they are often full blown restaurants.

It might be weird, but I don't generally like that aspect. It kind of diminishes the cozy coffee house feel for me.
An exception for me is a place called the I-55 cafe in Dalian. It has good American fare that is hard to get elsewhere, and it has good coffee drinks too.

Not weird at all. Some folks like the small coffee house atmosphere. I like it because sometimes I can get carried away with work or a book and enjoy the convenience of enjoying a nice meal and then continue with what it is that I was doing without ever having go from here to there.

When I am in Chengdu, I enjoy my coffee @ 良木缘咖啡.
