Starbucks

Nice, large Starbucks. There’s a long counter in front to order from. And two rows of long wooden benches that are very comfortable (one is backed by wooden slat on the wall and the other by glass panels.)
It feels very relaxed in here. They offer everything a typical Starbucks offers. There’s also Starbucks Reserve coffees.

Worse starbucks EVER!!! Staff is so incredibly rude, clueless & disorganized. I waited 18 minutes for a Peach Green tea lemonade. They don’t use the name system.

I would give this place a 0 if I could. I used to be a regular here coming here at least twice a week. I liked the atmosphere and that this place is relatively clean comparing to many other Starbuckses. I’m a starbucks gold member and had a free drink offered that I wanted to use today here. In addition I wanted to buy a bantam bagel and a cookie dough cake pop.
From the moment I said hi the barista was very unfriendly. I showed her my reward and asked her for the two additional items. The total came out to be over $ 7. So I assumed that she accidentally added something to the bill. Naively, I asked her how much the bantam bagel is (for those who don’t know it’s a mini bagel, basically it’s a bite). I thought that asking for the price of an item is a good way to point out that something is wrong with the bill. She said it’s $ 4.75!!! I was very shocked and said that’s expensive for only one tiny bagel. However, I really wanted to have that bagel, therefore I didn’t complain much but I sensed that something is wrong. So my cookie dough cake pop was around $ 1.50 and the mini bagel that’s about the same size was costing me 3x more! Later, I checked in an other starbucks and the individual bantam bagels are supposed to be under $ 2. So that girl just lied into my face!!! I think she should be fired for being malicious and unprofessional! I don’t care much about those few dollars but I care about deliberate wrong doing and cheating on customers. I will make sure to warn everyone I know about this place!

Experience in this establishment gets 2 stars
Why? I received my order in 15 mins, where I observed other customers placing their orders after me, receiving it in a timely fashion.
Outcome: Was 5 mins late to work as a result
Advice: Show employee how deliver purchased items on time. Apologized when their is delay.
I am a daily customer of Starbucks, but I support the smaller companies also. So my review will focus in different topics of Starbucks. I can say my Starbucks experience is near perfect (for certain stores I visit), except for the music. I would give Starbucks 5 Stars, but their music in the morning gives them only a 3 stars.
Starbucks should stop trying to sell music and forcing music on us via app that detracts from an otherwise positive experience. I strongly recommend them to leave the music digital marketing for music for Apple Music or Google Music to handle. (Their latest attempt at this their ridiculous Spotify.) Furthermore, they should give each store a variety of choices instead of one-​size fits all. No music is better than what they’re trying to cross market. Whoever is in charge of the music at corporate is way overpaid. Sorry about the rant about the app, but I am getting annoyed with 38 notifications I find in my app daily.
Let talk about new awards program. Starbucks is making a «huge» mistake when they introduced their new April 2016 policy change. Customers including myself are not supporting this change. Starbucks will be losing valuable customers like myself who has been a Gold Card Member for a few years. I go to Starbucks 3 to 4 times a week. Mostly for their tea drinks and earn stars (Teavana and Starbucks); 12 stars for a free drink «now» that is changing from 12 stars to 125 stars for a free drink. Also another bummer is to be a «Gold Card» member it was 30 stars now it is 300 stars. Who are they kidding! The other coffee companies are loving it… they will be getting Starbucks customers. Their marketing team have not research the app called CUPS, where soon it will become very popular after new program take place. Starbucks is not caring about their customers if they impose this outrageous plan. At least I will stop in to say Hello to the great staff at the nearest Starbucks store while holding a different brand of coffee in hand.

I have been to this place at least 3 times. Today, I managed to check in using my Unilocal app on my phone. The place is a welcome change from the other Starbucks I have been too here in Manhattan. It is huge ceilinged and you get the vibes that the place can be exciting. Service is quick and not so personal (I mean, the staff tries to help out). It has that industrial look, which I think is great, considering that other nearby Starbucks don’t really look great and spacious as this one. I can only wish most public places can be high ceiling as this one, considering that this is a coffeeshop… lol

I come to this Starbucks location 5 times a week (M-​F) since it is right next to my office building. Obviously, they offer all the standard Starbucks products but what made me give this location 5 stars is the employees, specifically Sarah and Yenis (sorry if i spelled this wrong) They are always friendly, attentive, and quick with my orders. Great job guys!

the best sb ever been so far. opened not that long time, quite spacious, not packed as sb normally be. So u def can get ur drink and seat to chill there.

What a day!
This place is OK… i guess… when it comes to space wise… other then that… im not a big fan of this location…
Starbucks…yet slow service at 2:00 pm on a weekday? Geez… There were 3 people in line total… including me… Ended up waiting for over 20 minutes! never again!

I almost never go to Starbucks given a) what it is/​represents and b) it’s absolute chaos at any given moment, but occasionally I make an exception for the newly-​opened location across the street from Penn Station. And I mean across 7^th Ave, not across 31^st. Because there is a Starbucks there too. Because clearly we needed yet another Starbucks to open in this one-​block radius.
When this Starbucks opened, my singular thought was: WTF. It still kind of is. Off the top of my head, there are six different Starbucks locations within the radius that I mentioned. None of them are good. All of them are hectic. All of them make me want to get the hell out of Manhattan. This Starbucks, however, is different.
If I reviewed every Starbucks in the city, God knows how many reviews I’d have. It’s kind of a cop out. But I feel the need to review this particular location, because of one quality: it is PLEASANT. How many Starbucks’s (awkward plural) can you say that about?
Because this spot just opened up, it is still CLEAN. The interior is also strikingly beautiful (this statement is ***strictly relative to other locations***). High ceilings, incredibly spacious, plenty of tables, some interesting design elements (marble, exposed brick, iron/​metal accents, all that fun industrial stuff) — definitely unlike any Starbucks I’ve ever been to.
What they offer here is obviously standard, but what I will mention is that this particular location has a Clover. I’m no coffee connoisseur, but what I can tell you is that the Clover machine can make some damn good coffee. It works on some sort of vacuum mechanism, the goal of which being to extract the purest of flavors… whatever that means. Typically the Clover coffees that Starbucks offer are more expensive and more rare. I’m highlighting this because in my experience, Clover coffee is definitely better than Pike Place, etc. I typically like a bit of milk in my coffee, and I will happily drink Clover coffee black, to give you an idea.
My point: if I run out of my own coffee/​forget to restock in time for the next workday, I come here. So there’s something to be said for that.

Love this new Starbucks location despite it being directly across the newly developed pedestrian plaza, which is home to many strange characters. The interior is nicely decorated and fairly spacious with ample seating. There’s 4 long, «bar» tables, several smaller tables paired with benches against the wall and cushioned seating near the back. The counter and waiting area are also roomy enough for a crowded, hot summer day that can potentially piss off New Yorkers and tourists alike. I can’t complain. I’m sitting here with my hot cappuccino with cinnamon on a gorgeous afternoon and listening to some cool jams.

Nice and spacious. Pretty clean compared to the ones on 6^th, 7^th, and 8^th. Strong wifi, several large tables that could seat 6 people, very good air circulation throughout. Baristas are actually friendly and efficient.

Another Starbucks in the city.
Morning commuters dream since (1) it’s step away from Penn Station and (2) the Starbucks in Penn Station is hectic all the time. The interior of this place looks pretty big.
Star for being extremely clean since the place just opened up.
No recommendation on drinks since this is a coffee chain and once you’ve tried a drink from somewhere else, you’ve tried them all
