About Starbucks

Starbucks Coffee Company is a well-known national chain that offers a consistent and familiar experience for customers. The store features a spacious and airy interior with a nice view of Alewife Brook Parkway, sharing the building with the nearby hotel, which provides access to clean, comfortable bathrooms and a larger lounge area. This makes it a good spot for working or studying, especially since there are study tables, booths, and free Wi-Fi with decent speed. Parking is ample, and the location is generally not too busy, providing a relaxing environment to sit and recover from activities or meetings.

The menu includes a variety of drinks, with some reviews highlighting the quality of lattes, such as Desna’s great iced latte, while others mention that certain drinks like the holiday Sugar Cookie Latte can taste off—more burnt cookie than sweet treat. The store also offers popular holiday treats like Snowman Cookie and Polar Bear Cake Pop, which are both cute and delicious. Customers appreciate the friendly service from baristas and the pleasant atmosphere, even if some feel the store has become less culturally unique and more uniform in design.

Additional amenities include study tables, booths, counter seating, and the possibility to use the hotel lounge area for extra seating during busy times. The location is praised for its friendly staff, good Wi-Fi, and good parking. Some customers wish for later opening hours and higher tables for standing desks. Overall, it’s seen as a reliable, comfortable place to relax, work, or enjoy a quick coffee, with many customers returning regularly.
