Was standard Starbucks. Nothing to write home about. Service was pretty good. You'll get the typical Starbucks stuff. Can be tough to find a seag. Lot's of people using computers at tables.

The barista Alex, he is very rude and mean. My friend ordered two drinks for us on the app ahead, when we got to the store to pick up the drinks, one of the drink was ready and the other one was not. Since she ordered ahead and the status showing the order is completed, she checked with the barista to confirm it is not ready yet(we have no problem to wait couple more minutes, just want to confirm no one else took it by mistake and the barista is aware of the drink is not ready). The barista Alex, he looked my friends up and down, said “no it is not ready, if it is ready then it is here”. We were so confused about his mean and unfriendly attitude, but we still said “ok sure” and wait. Then we watched him laughing with his other co-worker, talking about something, then pick up a cup asking his co-worker “hey is this with the xxx tea?” While he was working on that drink we felt the micro aggressive atmosphere that he intended to show and teach us “don’t ask and you have to wait”. We are not sure if he is a part time who is really young and lack of work experience so he don’t know how to work in retail or he is just simply intend to do so because he is not a nice person. Either way he is THE MEANEST PERSON I have ever met in a Starbucks. To the store manager, if you want to keep the location’s good reputation, employee training is essential, I guess especially for Alex.

I ordered my coffee, the barista was polite and friendly. I sat down to drink it and watched the two baristas speak respectfully to each other about improving the cafe, resolving scheduling snags, all the while serving customers kindly and efficiently. I don't really like Starbucks coffee...but whenever I'm in the neighborhood, I'll be back.

Does this place ever open on time?They see us standing outside.
I am generally easy going and really don’t like to leave reviews like this- baristas take a lot of abuse on the chin and deal with irritated and obnoxious customers all day long - I’ve been there and believe that they’re often doing their best and deserve better treatment across the board - from both Starbucks as an organization and the general public they wait on; unfortunately today’s visit was a truly terrible experience.I walked in maybe 3 minutes after ordering, it’s mid morning and they’re busy so I expect to wait 5-10 mins, surprisingly there weren’t many people in the store - kale and mushroom egg bites were already sitting on the counter (okay wow +1, that was very quick!) - 15 minutes later I’m still waiting on two drip coffees. They finally show up and I walk back to my office. I just opened up my egg bites and am greeted by two dark brown shriveled hockey pucks that were lost in the back of the oven last month and were just discovered this morning - unfortunately not worth walking back 10 minutes to wait in line and request a replacement but hopefully this review is seen by management and used to train staff on what’s acceptable to serve.I can handle food being well-done / “crispy” but these are inedible and completely unrecognizable from the product I ordered - if they were donuts or pastries I could have at least reconstituted them by dunking them in my coffee - to quote a well known Scottish chef, “What A SHAME!”

Sophia is superstar friendly as well as Spencer and Taylor but Sophie is too friendly humble respectful
They do not have cupholders for all glass sizes. They don't have sugar on hand, you have to ask for it and they give it to you in a dropper, just like milk when it burns too much and napkins. Taking into account the price (expensive) it does not respond to the usual Starbucks service (at least in other countries).
