Absolutely the slowest Starbucks drive through I’ve ever been to. Spent 17 minutes in the drive through for one drink. The line had about 3 cars in front of me but there was a lot of sitting and waiting for each person to order.

I was here at least five days a week while living in Monterey, and I must say I miss this place. It was always a welcoming atmosphere where I looked forward to getting work done every time. Employees are fantastic, will return if ever in the area again!

We had not been back to this Starbucks for years. It was just as we remembered it. It was like stepping back into time when Starbucks were large, clean, not overcrowded, and unfettered by the mentally ill, drug addicts, and grifters who now plague most Starbucks and similar type businesses across the country and particularly nanny states like CA. There were no key pads on the bathroom doors, which were men's and women's. The friendly multicultural staff who took our order was efficient and very nice. They got our drink order right on the first try. They were out of a few items we wanted, but kindly suggested suitable substitutes. They had good drive through and some inside business, but our drinks were prepared in a reasonable amount of time. Although there were some customers, we still had a choice of tables and were able to get a good seat, unlike other locations where every table is full nearly from open till close. The background music was not up too high and the conversations near us were not too loud. We were able to sit in peace for an hour or two and feel relatively safe and unmolested from panhandlers and other customers asking for our table until we decided it was time to leave. Overall, it was a great 5 star experience and we will be back again sometime when we are in the area.Tip: They have a small to medium sized lot which likely will hold enough cars per the tables inside, but it is easier to access from the back small side street rather than from the front on the main street.

They don’t open on time. Went at 5:45 which was within operating hours according to their signage and staff was present but the doors were locked. I got a sour face when I tried to come in and a gesture to wait. Darling, you’re 45 minutes past opening time. Don’t make faces at me for thinking the door should be

Edward, please stir the shots into the syrup I got a white mocha and the drink on top of a latte til you can drink it down far enough to mix the syrup and remainder of the drink. At that point it's just way too sweet.

This is, by far, THE BEST Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso I have had! Used the drive through, it was quick and painless. Staff were pleasant and courteous. Looked through the pick up window and the inside looks spacious and modern. I hope to come back and stay next time.

The baristas at this location are always very friendly and it's clean inside. This past Monday, I stopped in to pick up my mobile order, but I'd accidentally ordered from the Alvarado location. The baristas here made my order and had it ready in less than 5 mins (2 drinks and 3 food items). They didn't know it, but I was heading to SJC, and couldn't wait around for long. I was extremely grateful and appreciative that they were so willing to fit my order in when it was my mistake to begin with.

Pretty disappointed they werent opened at the hours they were supposed to be on Saturday. Showed up at 5:45am and no one inside, drive thru wasnt opened, but their hours stated they are opened at 5am. Also, I went in there on a few days prior and they were also out of cold brew. Probably just bad luck.

Its one of a few Starbucks that keeps open in the evening. This is a small place but clean and nice.Dietary restrictions: They have soy and almond milk, plus sugar-free syrup. Some of their food is gluten free.Parking: There is a small parking lot adjacent to the building.Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible
