Starbucks in San Jose

“Nothing out if the ordinary, it's a typical Starbucks. It's pretty spacious, has outdoor seating, and the staff are friendly. I stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and the line wasn't long.Th parking directly in front of the store is a little tight.“

“I just have to say that I had the most wonderful service at Starbucks this morning. I have been coming in consistently to get my iced vanilla latte and breakfast sandwiches this past week and between yesterday and today, I had to replace my debit card due to suspicious activity. I was issued a temporary card which doesn’t include the chip and upon ordering my usual order, my card was not being accepted. I didn’t realize that it didn’t have a chip until it was too late, and we tried other options to accept it, but it wouldn’t work.

My barista was Blair, and he had consistently seen me coming in over the course of the past week as well. He was so sweet and kind, and as I’m scrambling to figure out what else I can do, he actually covered my coffee and sandwiches. I was absolutely shocked and replied to him, “Seriously? Omg, are you sure?” it was so unexpected and it was incredibly gracious of him to do that for someone.

I really enjoy coming to this particular Starbucks because it is all inclusive and filled with diverse people who really do care and pay attention to their customers. I always see regulars coming in with big smiles and the social interactions are always positive. I know this isn’t relative for every location , and there are Starbucks on every corner in the city, but this is certainly one that takes the cake for me and will always appreciate the team who works there.“

“Its a Starbucks, you're not going to be getting gourmet coffee and pastries here but it does the job. The customer service is good but the selection of food is often limited compared to other Starbucks locations and the inside is slightly run down and not the most clean. Still a decent work and study spot though.

Update: I went again today and there was a homeless individual sleeping in the middle of the patio which is not too surprising knowing this area but its still a big issue“

“It's a nice place to have coffee, chitchat with friends in the open, work from there while having coffee/snacks. I enjoyed sitting there in a pollution free environment till the order was ready.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to move.“

“New drinks to try all the time! Staff super friendly and FAST! PLENTY of seating inside and outside. Handicap friendly. There is little limited parking in front but plenty on the side.

Wheelchair accessibility: Multiple handicap with wheelchair space right in front. Well maintained ramps and smooth surfaces for easy access. Heavy glass double doors so wheelchair might have a slight issue but not that bad.“

“Bathroom code: 2014#

I made a mobile order and it was ready within 7 mins of my arrival. Very nice and friendly staff. The tables are clean and this is a generally quiet location.

It’s also located right next to a planet fitness, McDonalds, and a bunch of other restaurants. Good location“

“I have never provided Starbucks a 4 in these two categories. Service and Atmosphere. The Head person there is Amazing at her craft of leadership and genuine in how she knows the customers that walk in. I enjoy the return to this particular Starbucks. Unfortunately, this Manager / Starbucks Leader is departing soon. I believe from observation once she leaves Welcome to the Family will go with her.“

“Newer, clean, spacious, well-designed layout. Open path to get in, wait, and get out. Lots of bench seating along windows with lots of outlets. A bunch of table seating outside.Parking is easy, in large lot. Easily, one of the better locations.“

“I used to work at Starbucks and loved it. I loved connecting with customers and remembering regulars’ names. Unfortunately, my Starbucks journey came to an end, but the memories remain in my heart. This location has an amazing team; they’re fast, and friendly, and the store is really clean. Big shoutout to Joe. He remembers my name and he’s always very polite. He’s a great asset to the team.“

“Great service at this Starbucks! The staff was super friendly, quick with my order, and made my drink perfectly. Max was amazing—so kind and welcoming—and he made delicious simple drinks that hit the spot. The whole team has such a positive vibe. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“This small Starbucks near River Oaks parkway in North San Jose has a small seating area both inside and outside. The store is well lit. The service is speedy and the staff are friendly. It is a good place to grab a drink or a snacks and work on something. There are tables for that. Parking is available in the parking lot adjacent to it. Recommended.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian items are available.

Parking: Free parking lot nearby.“

“This Starbucks shines as a neighborhood gem, particularly after a vigorous Lagree class. The staff here exude warmth and genuine hospitality, making each visit feel personalized. Their friendly reminders to use the Starbucks app ensure I always snag my rewards, a thoughtful touch I greatly appreciate.The ambiance is inviting—a perfect spot to unwind or get some work done, complemented by swift, engaging service.“

“I love San Jose. I just found my new happy place at this location in the south. The service, drink and food was amazing. The strawberry green tea infusion and their roasted ham and swiss was too good. I don’t give five stars much but this place I will!!!“

“I just left happy!! I went in and the girls working both had smiles and were so sweet and helpful! I got my vanilla sweet cream cold brew and bacon Gouda sandwich super fast and they tasted delicious. The girls definitely made my day, can’t wait to come back to this location!“

“This Starbucks stands out for its exceptional service and welcoming atmosphere. The baristas have a unique ability to make you feel important, regardless of their current circumstances. They even make it a priority of remembering your name, a personal touch I’ve never seen at other locations (hopefully, they’ll remember mine soon!). The team handles the area’s challenges with professionalism and care. Special shoutout to Stephanie (hope I got the spelling right) for her fantastic leadership, which sets the tone for this amazing store. I'm confident that if you value experience, this will be your new default Starbucks!“

“Love this smaller neighborhood Starbucks. Staff is always friendly and smiling while they deliver my timely and much-needed caffeine. I've never had a poorly crafted or sloppy drink or food item. The store is cozy and tidy.

Kid-friendliness: I love seeing all the kids eating snacks alongside parents in this safe and friendly location.

Parking: Plentiful and free. I've never seen the lot anywhere near full.“

“It is so rare to find Starbucks baristas who put in extra effort, and the baristas here have made this my favorite location! I messed up my order and they got me a new one, they saw I was working and brought my sandwich to me, remembered my name when I was leaving, just great all around! Not sure of his name- with an “Mo”? Such a refreshing experience :)“

“This Starbucks is conveniently located on our way to work. Mornings can be busy, but the staff quickly handles orders. We often use the app to save time, and they add cute stickers to our drinks that brighten our day. The interior is nice, and the service is excellent with friendly staff. We love coming here.“

“It's a Starbucks. The staff was friendly and the drink was satisfying.

Parking: The parking lot is not huge and filled up on my visit. It's also somewhat narrow so watch out when you drive your Porsche or McLaren.

Kid-friendliness: It's fine. It's a starbucks

Wheelchair accessibility: ADA compliant“

“I've been enjoying coming here for my usual cold brew and double smoke bacon sandwich. So far it's been on point with how I like it. Really good and friendly staff here but Andrew is at the top of the list for me. Very friendly, welcoming, efficient and makes my Cold Brew the best out of any other Starbucks.“

“Semi regular stop on the way home from riding Calero or Santa Theresa. A trenta refresher hits the spot after a hot ride.Stopped in this afternoon after a ride about ten minutes before closing. Staff were clearly getting ready to close up but were happy to serve us anyway and even dealt with my son’s customizations. Thanks team, those drinks were really needed.“

“Just about what you'd expect from a Starbucks, whether you like them or hate or anywhere in between -- this location is like every other Starbucks you know what you're going to get and they consistently deliver it. Really nothing else to add positive or negative.“

“Starbucks coffee has no match in taste flavour and aroma. Combine this with friendly staff who are conversant with what they sell and are conversational. Ambience is not upto the Starbucks standards. Entry is marked well and for the first timers it took time to locate it.“

“Recently moved into the neighborhood and I’m trying to figure out my go to Starbucks and this one seems to be the winner.

I try to leave my place around 5:00am and this Starbucks is open bright and early!!! Seems like they are open earlier than most Starbucks in San Jose. That’s great!!!

I’ve never used mobile pick up through drive thru until this week and decided to try it since it’s more convenient than getting out of the car. It has been great!!! The employees who I’ve encountered here bright and early have been wonderful too!!! Thank you!!!

I think I found my go to Starbucks!!!!“

“5 Stars – Exceptional Service!
I can’t say enough good things about this Starbucks location. Every single employee here is incredibly welcoming, helpful, and truly makes you feel at home the moment you walk in. Their outstanding service is unmatched so much so that I travel miles out of my way just to visit this specific store. You won’t find this level of kindness, professionalism, and warmth at other Starbucks locations. Hands down, kudos to the entire hardworking team. You all make a real difference!“

“* They always warm up my heart’s, wishing y’all having a wonderful holiday season as well!
Another warning day from staff , thank you so much all!
Morning usual hot or ice coffee, staff here are friendly and nice . Specially supervisor or manager she always remember my side hot water. Thank you so much!“

“This Starbucks has great employees. They're always more than happy to greet you and take your order. I especially love going to this one in particular because line's are short which means quick service.

Parking: Lots of parking spaces, free public parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Drinks customizable to your kids liking.“

“Apparently this is the only location serving cascara toppings and foam options in or near the San Jose district. I arrived after 4pm on a weekday during COVID and the store was closed. I hope to return to try the add-ons unavailable in other Bay Area stores. (November 2020)“

“The Starbucks at River View is my go-to spot for coffee. As a regular, I appreciate the consistently well-made drinks and the clean, spacious environment. There’s plenty of room to sit, both indoors and outdoors, making it a great place to relax or work. Highly recommend this location for its reliability and welcoming atmosphere!“

“Most of the downtown Starbucks seem to be closed in San Jose which is not a loss as they all look like bummed out buildings more likely to be found in Fallujah than South of San Francisco that said this one is here and doing well thanks to awesome staff like Alex to go out of their way to help and are examples of enthusiasm and energy unbelievably so even at the most odd and tiring of times.

For What it's worth the new pistachio latte kind of socks and the bacon and egg gouda sandwiches has gone downhill

“Coffee ☕ is not always to my order staff should pay better attention.also my beverage sits at the counter not notifying when it's ready.waited a few times after it was ready !!!

Kid-friendliness: Many school kids go after school but they're behaves though sometimes no place to sit.“

“Great location! very spacious with tables great for working. Workers are also incredibly nice! I mobile ordered a matcha latte, i meant to order iced, but i forgot to put iced. The ladies were so sweet enough to remake the drink iced for me!!! 10/10 service.“

“Starbucks had an awesome experience with the staff this morning especially thanks to our barista Rosa, who made our visit a welcoming one. She noticed our order was for here and went the extra mile by serving our hot Americanos and tasty bagels with cream cheese right at our table. Such thoughtful service made our morning even better. Thank you ❤“

“On Tuesday, February 27th, I visited Store Location for coffee. I was assisted by a blonde employee whose name I regrettably did not obtain, but her service was exceptional. She was incredibly kind, and I truly appreciate all the assistance she provided during my visit.“

“Alright so firstly, this place has good food and pretty decent drinks (fave one being the pink drink or mocha cookie crumble frappe). Secondly, the customer service is decent to say the least. Theres this one employee who I think should not work in customer service because she is pretty rude and annoying. Other than that, customer service is pretty much good. Lastly, the line can be long but it moves rather quickly. There was this one time where some random guy cut in front of me but that’s not Starbuck’s fault, that is that guy’s fault. In conclusion, this Starbucks is pretty good minus that one lady from customer service.“

“Super nice, clean and perfection! I don't say this lightly, because I usually have to send my drink back. Thank you so much to the person that was doing dishes, that stopped to come help and make my daughters drink and mine, along with a "Pup Cup." You made her 100 lb. Newfoundland so happy. ?“

“The barista was excellent. Even though she had about three orders going at once she stayed focused and was polite and efficient at her job. This is the Starbucks located on king and story road inside the target store. I didn't catch her name though. She's a tall blond. Working at 9:00 am on Tuesday.“

“I had a truly wonderful experience at this Starbucks. The customer service was top-notch—the workers were so kind, patient, and helpful as we made our coffee and food choices. It's so nice to have such a positive start to the day. The store was also incredibly clean and had a great vibe.

Parking: Always plenty of parking, just don't come here after 8 AM. As it is very busy and there's a lot of seniors that hang out here and read the paper. Believe it or not, they still do very impressed by. They're friendliness and always willing to engage. Anybody that's willing to have a conversation. You might learn something from these seniors

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“To whom it may concern: I am a coffee freak mildly put and I was at thus store this afternoon and got the best made Carmel maciatto I've ever had in my 15 + years drinking starbucks. ALEXA was my server, she was kind, and knows hiw to make a good maciatto. I appreciate this kind of service 10 all the way around. Please give her a paid off day. I will pay her wages if I could just let me know. She is so deserving of something special. ? Thank you soo much Alexa ? & staff ~

Parking: Enough parking for lots of customers . No worries •“

“This store is grab and go only. They don't have any seating or a drive through. There isn't even outside seating. They do have merchandise inside and they make all the drinks. Parking is okay. We ate in the park in the parking lot because there's nowhere to eat inside. They do have a bathroom.

Parking: Limited parking close out front.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room inside, but there is nowhere to sit.“

“Everyone here rocks! I had some big work events this past week and needed travelers ready early in the morning. Everyone was so kind and had the orders ready when I needed them. I really appreciate you all helping to make this a smooth week!“

“I've been to this Starbucks many many times, and not once has my order been wrong or significantly delayed. I place my order on the app, stop by ~5 minutes later and it's ready to go every. single. time. 5/5 stars for fast and accurate service!“

“Baristas were friendly and fast. I had my drink ready by the time I finished paying. Can get busy, but still, the baristas stayed on top of their game. I go almost everyday. Never had a problem. Putitupmike is full of himself and way wrong bout those girls. They work hard. No ones EVER had to wait 15 min for coffee!“

“It's a typical Starbucks. This one is a bit smaller so not easy to camp out and work or study out of. There is also no drive through, so you have to order via mobile or order in store and pickup in store.

Parking: Lots of spots, pickup spots available, handicap available“

“Giving 5 stars for the service! The baristas were very nice. It was the middle of the day, and they had a very positive attitude! They went out of their way to write this message on my cup, and it definitely helped me have a wonderful day. It’s the little things!“

“I had Angie take my order and I love getting her. She is the nicest ever and very sweet! She knows what she is doing. She always has a smile and such a amazing person to have and see when I need my coffee fix as she is the only one who seems to always be smile and never get annoyed at someone who may take a minute or two to order. I hope they do not lose her as she is the only reason I still go to this location as I've had nothing but disrespectful attitudes and more happen. So if you see this Angie you are amazing and thank you for being a amazing human and your customer service is the best!“

“I enjoyed the Starbucks I went to on Coleman in san Jose. The people that worked there were the best. The Lowes I worked at has closed so now I have to find a new Starbucks to go to. So if you are ever by the airport off of Coleman stop by Starbucks and have a cup.“
