As other reviews have noted, this Starbucks may be the slowest on Earth—fitting, considering that the drive-thru loops around a giant globe, as if mocking our futile attempts at a quick caffeine fix. We spent 45 minutes inching around it, not so much grabbing a morning coffee as embarking on Around the World in 80 Lattes.
The coffee? No complaints. The wait? If Phileas Fogg had traveled at this speed, he’d still be somewhere over the Atlantic, wondering if he should’ve just stayed home. The best part? There’s no escape. The concrete medians and well-placed landscaping ensure that once you’ve joined the queue, you’re committed to the journey—whether you like it or not.
By the time we finally reached the window, I half expected a congratulatory telegram from Jules Verne himself. Good coffee, but bring a map, a rations kit, and a sense of adventure. You may be here longer than you think.
Parking: You cannot get out of the drive thru once you enter.

So, I stopped by this location for the first time. Walked in and was greeted but there was a little bit of a wait. As I placed my order, the young lady then proceeds to inform me that they didn’t have any vanilla syrup which is one of the main ingredients in the coffee I had chosen. Completely disappointed and surprised by this because it’s Starbucks you know. It’s like pulling up to your favorite steakhouse prepared to order their biggest and most popular steak on the menu, only to be told that they’re completely out of steaks! Yep, that’s how I felt! No need to say that I will not return to this new establishment of Starbucks.

I would give this Starbucks a zero if I could. The girls that work here are RUDE! I used to tip $5 every time I came in but stopped a while back because of the rudeness but today was WAY OVER THE TOP.

Me I have been to several Starbucks but this place is terrible. They gave me sugar-free drinks, I complained and they told me that's how they sell them and they didn't want to change the drinks. Bad service. I will not buy from Starbucks again, I do not recommend it.gusta I had to go and put sugar in my house, this place is a disaster.

This Starbucks is consistently awful. Staff ignores customers at the drive thru. The line piles up. You sit and wait a while for your order. They don’t care to tell you it’s going to be a while. Horrible. I hate this location.

This is one of the slowest starbucks I Have ever been to everyday. They are lined up into the parking all day long they take so long to make drinksls. I have never seen any other location move thid slow have been sitting here for 30 minutes. And when your in lime you can't get out of the line your stuck here. They need better people to run more smoothly and better service. Noone wants to wait in line for 1 drink for an hour when noone is moving.

I love Starbucks. I love the food. I love the services. I love the atmosphere, five stars out of five
Avoid this location!!!! This is the slowest Starbucks I’ve ever been to. It’s my third and final time coming to this one, no more chances. I entered the drive through line when there were only 2 cars in front of me. There’s no reason I should be waiting 20 minutes just to place my order let alone waiting 40 minutes to leave with my coffee. Once you’re in line you can’t leave. Go to the location around the corner on Abercorne and White Bluff.

My daughter and I came into this Starbucks and ordered at 9:04am. We ordered 2 drinks and a bagel. I don’t have a problem with the bagel. The lady behind the counter was continuously making drinks as we sat down and talked for a little over 10 minutes. That’s when 2 men who appeared to be a part of the military walked in and ordered 7 drinks. The barista ended up putting their order on higher priority than mine and others’ drinks, as well. It wasn’t until she was done with 6 of their drinks, at 9:21am, that I decided to talk to her. She stated she “can not skip orders” but I had placed mine first? He told the barista “it’s okay, you can go ahead and make her drinks first. We can wait.” The barista thanked him for his kindness, when I was supposed to have my items before this time anyway. I understand that they’re busy, and I would understand if there was military priority, but that was not advertised anywhere. Food establishments are supposed to be first come, first serve. I don’t understand why myself and several others had to wait for their large purchase, especially when they had come in way later than all of us customers did.

Literally in line for an hr. There's no way to leave the line once you are in it because the way it's blocked.... There was no apology nor communication... i get to the window.. there 4 people standing around and 1 person making drinks.. that makes no sense... i won't be back to this location.

DO NOT GO TO THIS LOCATION. sat in the drive thru for an hour trapped because there was no way to leave, I have never seen a slower Starbucks it’s actually difficult to believe anyone was in there making drinks. After incidents like this happening multiple times with insanely slow service I’m never coming back

Currently sitting in the drive thru, after placing a mobile order for pickup. I’m at 45 minutes and counting. Will not return, terrible experience to grab a couple coffees.
