Your typical Starbucks. Don't listen to people who say the service is terrible, I have never experienced it there. The staff has always been kind and reasonable to me. I would love to see them take over the closed Subway next door to add space for people to sit.

Typical overhyped & overpriced busy starbucks store. It takes a constant flow of online orders which considerably slows down your order. Even if alone in the store, you need to wait for the staff to get to your order. A simple espresso, which the machine automatically makes in seconds, takes 15 minutes or so to get. You cannot sit outside and wait expecting the staff to serve it to you. You must wait standing up inside where there are no tables or chairs (anymore).

Starbucks took away the self-serve counter during the plandemic and it never came back. Now you have to ask and wait extra for the busy-with-online-orders staff to pass you a bag of sugar or a stirrer, which they usually forget to offer.

Pastries are way overpriced but not fresh as one would expect. The staff may only preheat them for you where applicable. Pastry is made off-site and delivered packed in cellophane bags, just like in Safeway where you can buy a dozen for similar price.

The whole starbucks business is rushed and sterile. One can tell it's designed strictly after profit generation. One's experience with respect to hanging out, relaxing, and enjoying your drink is not really important. Unless one is really stuck with their fancy sugary drinks with foreign names, a small local cafe delivers far better experience.

The most unhospitable, uncomfortable Starbucks anywhere. Zero, right—zero indoor furniture. Tables outside in cold shade with construction noise bonus. I had to ask to place an order after a long wait where employees wrre making web orders mon-stop. Where is the indoor furniture? “We’re a grab-and go location.” Who’s heard of this?? Unmarked in any way, and the experience feels more like “grab and go away.” I will drive anywhere to avoid this place.

Starbucks? We all know what we go there for -- coffee! LOL. Me, on the other hand, after a quick soccer pitch at Carlmont HS field, I went for one of their a nice cold drink. Hit the spot. A nice place to chill for a bit to recuperate from all that #serioussoccer running (obviously not showing a house at the moment! LOL #TheBrokerWithAHeart).

Absolutely no seating inside, so I guess they've designed it with "We don't want you here" in mind. Happy to oblige.
UPDATE: uh...why ask me to share with your own Care Team. You do that.

This town always closes before 7, I got there at 6:35 and they couldn't make me a coffee and they told me that they are already cleaning. They are supposed to close at 7pm

Don't get the caramel creme brulee unless you like burnt caramel flavor. It was undrinkable.Otherwise the service at this location is wonderful and it's not their fault the flavor is horrible.

This is your average run-of-the-mill Starbucks. Very small. Perhaps 3 tables inside the store. There are a few outdoor seats additional. Gets super crowded with the folks waiting for drinks literally standing over the seats inside.I do not recommend for any type of reading books or working on a laptop. It is near a hole-in-the-window type of joint. Fortunately, there's a lot of places to squat and chat in the strip mall - especially next to the Waterdog Tavern.

Parking: Plenty of parking in the strip mall.
