I think the browser would launch but it would never get to where I could supply the required credentials.
Starbucks used to be serviced by AT&T and Amazon had an arrangement with AT&T so that Kindles would be magically authorized at their hotspots without having to go through a web page. And that was my experience last time I was in range of a Starbucks a few months ago. However, I think Google recently got the Starbucks contract so that may have changed things.
McDonalds and FedEx are still serviced by AT&T and my Kindle can connect there without accepting user agreement. But other wifi devices still require that.

First connect to Wi-fi. If the browser doesn't launch automatically, then you can open the browser manually. Type something like google.com and then it usually reroutes you to an authentication website.
