This is on management. Tried to get a coffee at 8:20am and there was a sign that they were on break and would be back at 10am. Not the best managerial scheduling decision. (Likely someone called out though)

I must give a shout out to Charles who works here at the Starbucks located inside the Safeway on Mission west side!I watched him take his time to help a younger boy help him figure out the balance on his gift card and also take special care with his younger sister.When I stepped up to order my brew, he was so helpful and polite with a great sense of humor!It’s so nice to see people like Charles after getting coffee at 11th hour on the west side where the barista and the very watered down coffee there left me with a very different impression.Shout out to Charles at Starbucks in Safeway!!Not only did he make me a nice cup of joe but he was kind, helpful and obviously cares about the patrons:)

This used to be my home location when I lived on this side of town. Now I only stop when I’m passing through on the way back home.Happy Thanksgiving! I’m on this side of town, so I stopped in for a cinnamon dulce latte, which is my favorite hot drink at Starbucks. I like that it’s mellow and not overpowering in flavor.This is a newer Starbucks, so it’s pretty modern. It’s close to UCSC campus, so you’ll often find a lot of students here studying or people here working on their laptops.Nice location and friendly staff. They also make good drinks! Mission and Dufour Starbucks, I’ll be back!

This is not the worst Starbucks ever it's not the best one ever.Just a basic Starbucks.Parking: This parking lot is always full of people w/ children. There are multiple businesses surrounding this location.Pay attention to your surroundings! There's always people walking in & out of cars w/ children. Very few people look around, almost everybody is on their phone.Lock your vehicle. :)

Waited 15 minutes in line to find out that they don't do Nitro brews. Then I asked if they had Vanilla cold brews which was on their menu but nobody had brewed it the night before. The workers were stressed out... it's not their fault. It's like nobody is managing it and Starbucks has gotten so big that their quality has diminished. I just need to use my gift card but after that I don't really want to support Starbucks anymore. You can't even pour your own cream or anything.

Love Starbucks. Like any other Starbucks locations, the coffee is great but the food is meh. Service is fantastic. Usual Starbucks atmosphere - chill, and relaxing. Wifi available.
