Starbucks in Courtenay

“I stopped into Starbucks for a quick coffee and left questioning if Jordan the barista might actually be some kind of caffeine wizard.

I ordered something simple… or so I thought. Somehow it turned into a custom masterpiece that tasted like it was handcrafted by someone who truly understands my life choices better than I do. Jordan didn’t just make the drink—they connected with it. I’m pretty sure there was eye contact and a silent agreement between them and the espresso machine.

Also, I blinked and my drink was ready. I’ve waited longer for my own microwave.

10/10 service, elite-level coffee skills, and just the right amount of friendly banter to make me feel like a regular even though I panic every time it’s my turn to order. If Jordan’s working, you’re in good hands. If not… maybe wait.“

“It a decent Starbucks with an amazing (manager?) she (medium height with short slicked back hair) behaved like a manager was on top of everything and doing the jobs of three people while the girl in glasses leaned on the counter staring at people and when asked to do something moved so slowly I thought she might be broken or on the spectrum. Kudos to the younger short haired woman you rocked it!! Fab coffee by the way 🥰“
