Starbucks

Great location with friendly staffs, delicious coffee and relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend them!

Plenty of places to sit down and enjoy a drink with friends. Waitstaff is very friendly as well. My drink was made perfectly even with all my odd requests and modifications. Of the three Starbucks in this three mile radius, this is the best.

There are 3 starbucks locations on this corner. This is the standalone location. There is also one inside the Target next door, and there is one adjoining a Barnes & Noble across the street.
The staff here was friendly and the drive-​thru is convenient, though the location in a shopping plaza makes access slightly difficult.

No wonder Scott is a little confused! The drive thru location is in the Bel Air Shopping Plaza, literally around the corner from the Target location and two blocks from the Barnes and Noble store on Marketplace Dr. The address is something like 600 Baltimore Pike (aka Route 1).
What sets this apart, aside from the drive thru, is that this Starbucks has a Clover machine! Very few stores have this coffee brewer, which allows you to choose from a number of special roasts. The beans are ground and brewed for each individual order. It makes an amazing cup of coffee!

I was completely confused when I tried checking into this Starbucks. Three different location, all within 2/​10ths of a mile, came up. It could be a Unilocal error, I thought, but knowing Starbucks, there could very well be 3 locations in that proximity. Because I’m such a Unilocal nerd, and I had nothing better to do while my wife and her parents shopped for (blech) books, I did a little investigating and figured it out.
Yes, there are indeed three different Starbucks in that small radius. The free-​standing location with the drive-​thru is across the street. That is not this location. (Sorry Suzy Q). This location is the one attached to the Barnes and Noble. (Hence my «shopping for books» line). There is also a Starbucks in the Target across the street from the Barnes and Noble, and in the same large shopping center as the free-​standing Starbucks.
Now that we’ve taken care of the logistical stuff, here’s my review;
It was a Starbucks. Just like the other 10 Million Starbucks. Decent latte with over-​roasted coffee. I give this location a bump from my standard «Starbucks 3-​stars» because they occupied my time with this little mind-​bender, had comfy seats to kill time while the wife was shopping, and the cuteness level of the baristas was extremely high.

Convenient location with a drive-​thru. Only saw two outlets with two plugs each for charging devices. Large table in the middle with stools make up most of the seating. Not conducive to long stays for studying, etc.

Really beautiful starbucks! Located in a shopping mall but has it’s own independent store. Quick, reliable, and courteous. A bonus is the the drive thru!

What else would expect from a Starbucks besides a trendy expensive cup of coffee? It’s all the same everywhere I go. I always get the same thing when I go there. If it is Spring or Summer it’s an Tall iced soy raspberry mocha with no whip and if it is Winter or Fall, it’s not iced but the same thing. I don’t drink coffee that often but when I do get the urge to blow $ 5 or more I head to Starbucks and get my mocha.
