This is my local Starbucks. It’s the usual haunt for meetings with business partners and friends. Big patio outside but often the tables inside are full. No leather chairs for relaxing — it’s all wooden chairs. There is a bar area overlooking the parking lot and a giant shared picnic style table. Service here is quick and efficient. Drinks are good. The cream/sugar area can be a bit untidy but in general it’s fairly clean. Parking is generally easy but Friday and Saturday evenings can be challenging when the Hart’s Kitchen starts to fill up.

Love Starbucks. Hate this location. Staff always unfriendly and or too busy talking to each other to acknowledge the customers. I was so so happy when the Windermere location opened means I don’t have to get my coffee from the unfriendly staff at this location anymore

I usually enjoy starbucks a lot. That is if they are made as its supposed to. This location always seem to have the least friendly and the drinks always taste very weak. It is some what frustrating when I drive through the Starbucks to get my favorite drink to help me start the day. and the ladies are not friendly and drinks are not just meeting the expectation.. . not a ideal way to start the day. I will be taking extra time and trip to avoid this location and go try other location.

I like to come here on my days off when I am not in a rush. Their staff is very pleasant and can spell my name right… haha. Their drive thru is very slow sometimes even when it is not a super long line, not sure why?!

My boyfriend and I stopped by this Starbucks location on Saturday evening. It was pretty busy, but we found a table near the door we could sit at. I ordered a chamomille tea, whie he ordered a Passion Tea Lemonade. We sat down and waited patiently for our drinks to arrive. After over 5 minutes of waiting, I decided to go up to the barista counter to see if our drinks were there. Nothing. So I walked back up to the girl who took our order and she said pointed at three paper bags with pastries in them and said my order was there. I was confused but she was busy with a customer. So I waited until she was done with the customer and asked her where our order was. She snapped back that they’d be waiting at the barista counter. SO I walked back to the counter again to make sure I didn’t miss it and still nothing was there. I was getting annoyed by now. Meanwhile, both girls working the barista machine couldn’t be bothered to even look up to see why I was walking back and forth looking frustrated. I walked back to the girl at the register and told her our drinks were there nor were they called out. She asked me what we ordered again, rolled her eyes and yelled at another girl behind the counter to make the passion tea lemonade. So I walked back to the barista side and waited for the drinks. The passion tea lemonade wasn’t even shaken like it was supposed to be. All she did was pour the pre-made mix from the carton over a glass of ice and roughly put it on the counter. So I took it, annoyed, and brought it over to my boyfriend. No sooner had I sat down that I heard the girl at the register call out that my chamomille tea was ready, so I walked back again, and shehad placed it on the higher ledge(vs. the lower one where the barista girls put them). As I brought it down, I ended up spilling the tea all over my hand since it was so high. I was sooooo mad. Why did she put it up there in the first place? I was able to finally put a lid on it and walk back to the table where my boyfriend immediately asked me what happened. He felt so bad he used his cold iced drink to relieve the pain and throbbing from my hand. This incidence was the second Starbucks in the city I’ve had horrible service from. I am beyond done with this chain. Their sister chain, Teavana is WAY better in terms of customer service and product quality. I will never visit this store again,
