Coffee Shops near Ellenton

“I just want to take a moment to recognize the staff at this location, and particularly, one of the managers who I believe is named Nick. I’ve been coming to this Starbucks for a couple years now with my dog (drive-thru) almost every morning, and though the staff has gone through some changes in that time, the vast majority of the employees working that line have been super friendly and hard working. Nick always has a big smile on his face, hustles, and takes the time to acknowledge and engage me and my pup. Although these interactions are brief, they always set such a great tone for my day. I wish I knew the names of some of the other employees who share these same qualities, but overall, just wanted to make sure their hard work and kindness are recognized.“

“Walked in the day before the store opened wanting to buy a morning coffee! And was approached by the manager I think he’s name was Nicholas if I’m not mistaken he felt bad and said they are opening tomorrow but he will make me a coffee I offered to pay and they said it’s on Starbucks! They have a great team and provide amazing service thank you Starbucks Ellenton ❤️“

“Best iced coffee in town!“

“I had the pleasure of being served by Jay at McDonald’s, and her exceptional customer service truly stood out. From the moment I walked in, Jay greeted me with a warm and friendly attitude that immediately made my experience better. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her customers, and that made all the difference during my visit.

What made my experience even more memorable was Jay going above and beyond with something special—she didn’t just get me one McDonald’s Croc; she surprised me with three! This kind of attention to detail and kindness is rare to find. Jay’s effort to accommodate my request so generously shows that she takes pride in creating a positive and personal connection with customers.

Throughout my visit, Jay maintained a high level of professionalism while still being approachable and fun to talk to. She was quick to handle my order, ensuring everything was correct and fresh. The entire time, she kept a great attitude, which is not easy in such a fast-paced environment, but Jay made it seem effortless.

What impressed me the most was how thoughtful and proactive she was. Jay anticipated my needs before I even voiced them, and the experience felt smooth from start to finish. Small gestures, like this, create lasting impressions and make people want to come back. It’s clear that she takes pride in her job and genuinely enjoys interacting with people.

Overall, Jay’s service was outstanding, and I can’t thank her enough for going the extra mile. She’s not just a great employee; she represents what customer service should be. Her kindness and generosity with the McDonald’s Crocs made my day, and I’ll definitely be returning because of the experience she provided. Thank you, Jay!

“More so.. Dunkin Donuts.. Ethan is a breath of fresh air w/ his dry humor. Reminded me of Comedian Steven Wright. He had me laughing the whole time w/ his upselling tactics. Also made my latte exactly as ordered and how I like it. After 45yrs within Customer Service, I can only see him as a valued asset! Ty!“

“Very welcoming and relaxing environment. Great spot to hang. Outdoors, but they have heaters and full service restrooms. Professional staff and good beverage selection.“

“Best coffee shop in Bradenton. Nice central location, close to the water and downtown if you want to go for a stroll before or after your coffee. Excellent quality coffee with some nice takes on speciality drinks. Kind and attentive staff. Some decent snacks if you want to grab a light bite as well. Parking can be a bear, but it’s worth it. One of my favorite places in town to work on my laptop if I need a change of scenery.

Parking: Parking can be difficult here with all the tourists, especially during high times. Bring your patience.“
