I really love Starbucks, but the other day I placed an order then went to pay and got turned away because they didn’t have change for 100 dollar bill. It’s not just this particular Starbucks, it’s quite a few that have done this to me. For such a big company with lots of customers through the day, you would think that they would be prepared for this. It’s not really a big deal but it’s just an inconvenience to drive around from Starbucks to Starbucks hoping that they I don’t get turned away again

Super friendly staff at this location. It’s not too busy. It’s consistent. They have a really cool lounge area or a bar up next to the baristas to sit it and watch them make your drinks. Got the flat white; Venti w 3 extra shots. So good:) figured I may as well they out there latest drink.

This Starbucks is awesome! Came here two times and both times using the drive-thru. The service is always superb and friendly. They really know how to take care of their customers. We came by trying to get the BOGO free deal for the holiday season drinks. We were not sure which drinks were on the holiday list so we asked the barista. She listed a bunch, including Pumpkin Spice latte, which is one of my favorite during the fall season. However, after punching in the order, the barista noticed that the Pumpkin Spice was actually not on the BOGO list, but she said she would take care of us anyway because she already told us the information. So we got 1 venti Chestnut Praline and 1 venti Pumpkin spice for the price of one! Totally a steal.

Probably one of my favorite Starbucks’ just because it’s spacious and it has different seating options. There’s plenty of space for studying(in a group or alone) or of you want to just sit and read. The baristas are always so friendly! Downside, sometimes when I place an order for an iced green tea they’ll forget to sweeten it but they’re always nice to accommodate. Sometimes the music is a bit loud so it’s hard to have conversations with people or to concentrate on studying/reading

Terrible drive thru service! I spent 10 minutes in line only to be overcharged. I won’t be visiting this Starbucks again not recommending it.

This review is specifically for Kristina who is a barista. Her service on 6−11−15 was truly above and beyond and deserves recognition. I was unfamiliar with the area and I came in to get directions. She was so clear and helpful. She even wrote the directions down on a pastry bag. She also didn’t even expect me to make a purchase, but I did of course. The other workers also mentioned that she is really nice and have been helpful to many other customers like myself with directions. The best decision made by Starbucks was hiring her! :)

This is the biggest Starbucks I have ever seen and I visit at least 3 – 5 different ones a week. Go here. If you have work to do and are within 15 miles, go out of your way and go here. Skip the one near your house. Go here. The parking lot stinks but I would park a block away and walk in the rain to be able to easily find a spot to open my laptop like this one. Go here.

It’s very true that one review for a Starbucks is pretty much a review for them all… But, this being my first time at this new store, I thought a review was in order. I frequented the one that used to be down in the business complex, as my boyfriend works in this area and I usually stop by to visit him. Seeing that this one was open, I decided that it would have to work! I’ll start with the positives: the décor and the first barista that I came into interaction with. Mike, who was ringing, was incredibly nice. So personable and so fun and just so adorable. I only talked to him for like 2 minutes and he made the beginning of my first time here so great! The décor is really modern and updated(as to be expected, seeing how it’s new) and I loved all the wooden panels throughout the store. There’s one wall that’s covered in the«full roasting spectrum» of coffee beans which I thought was a really cool, rustic touch. On top of all of that, this location has LOTS of seating which is awesome because it’s usually such a hassle to find a nice spot when going to a Starbucks to do homework or catch up with somebody. Now… The negatives. Let me start off by saying that I’m a Starbucks barista so I’m pretty observant when I go to other stores. The barista that was on bar, making everybody’s drinks, was burnt out. Extremely. Because of this, he was snappy with customers. A girl misheard him call out a drink and she goes, «Was that the caramel macchiato?» His reply was, «Uhh no. I’m working on it,» super short like. The only customer that he was KIND of nice to was a guy that he already knew. Thennn, I noticed that there was a guy there that was interviewing for a job with Starbucks — instead of putting his drink in line as it was received, as it’s supposed to happen, the barista dropped what he was doing to make that guy’s drink first, ahead of other customers. I got my iced coffee and was still waiting like five minutes for my berry hibiscus. That specific drink is supposed to be shaken in a tea shaker. I watched it being made — the barista didn’t shake it at all. Just poured it into the shaker, but then poured it right into the cup. What? I probably waited 10 minutes altogether… And there was no long line or anything. If you go to this Starbucks, do yourself a favor and go through the drive-thru and pray that you get Mike, because he’s the only good part about this store!

All starbucks are not created equal, at least not when it comes to staff and management, this one has great staff, one of the few starbucks I can get my drinks exactly as I ordered. The added convenience of drive-thru and fast free wifi makes this sbux an excellent choice. And Now use your IPhone or android Sbux app to order and pay for your drinks, they will be waiting for you by the time you arrive.(aprox. time shown at time of order) On business days traffic backs up at peak hours on 180th going eastbound, might be hard to get out of parking lot, same if you try to turn into if you are going west bound, there are only couple of dozen parking spaces, though there are more spaces in the back near Staples.
