“Exceptional Ethiopian cuisine. The best that we’ve had so far. The sampled platter for two was exceptional. There’s two choices of protein, one beef and one chicken and I a delicious sauce and for vegetables to choose from. Vegetables are vegan. Ambience is really cute, clean. The owner is exceptional, friendly and does all the cooking. This is a very special little gem. We highly recommend.“

“The partners at this location are awesome. The team clearly gets along and works well together and it shows. It creates a rest experience for the customer. Extra points to them for doing a Komodo Dragon coffee tasting for me. As a past partner, this has always been one of my favorites and I haven’t had it in years. Such a kind action“

“Friendly owners and great Burmese foods.“

“I go to this scooters coffee everyday and sometimes twice a day. I easily spend 15,000 a year at this establishment. The staff is always accommodating to my drink needs. I am rarely seen without scooters coffee in my hand. Recently I ordered my drink inside the restaurant, I recived a sad drink with light whipped cream. Charlie, an employee I have known to do good things noticed my frown, and filled my whipped cream to the top. This goes above my expectations. I was waiting for the line to empty to ask for more, Charlie stopped filled it up and sent me on my way. As I said they are accommodating. There are new employees at times that may not realize the happiness a beautiful drink can make. Don’t be angry when I ask for a new one or a change because I expect what I’m paying for to meet expectations your store promises to deliver. This is why I go everyday. For coffee happiness. Thanks to an amazing team always willing to serve and be very friendly while doing it. I would also like to spotlight a girl with a septum and cool jewelry in drive through in the mornings and the girl in the afternoon with leather stands in her hair. They are always doing the window with such an amazing attitude. Keep making coffee drink art.“

“Before heading back to STL I drove thru Starbucks for my morning coffee. I prefer one of my STL favorite's, Kaldi's Coffee, yet Starbuck's won out do to it's location and drive-thru convenience. The Drive Thru line was extremely long, but moved fast. My Iced Latte hit the spot.“

“This store, located inside the Gerbes supermarket, is perhaps my favorite Starbucks location. It's very convenient if you're grocery shopping, but I often order ahead on the app and stop here, when I'm just in the area. I've always thought their drinks taste better than actual stand-alone Starbucks locations.

FYI: Google Maps currently indicates this location has a drive-thru. They do NOT have a a drive-thru here, but if you need one, there is a DT location two stoplights to the west at Broadway and Fairview.“

“Absolutely love this place“

“Came in already annoyed because I didn’t realize this Starbucks was inside Target (no outside sign 😅).

But the two ladies working there completely turned my mood around, super friendly, great energy, smiling, and genuinely welcoming.

What a great duo. If I lived nearby, I’d come back just for their positive vibe.

@Starbucks — put a sign outside!“

“waiting on June Leigh to come talk..but seems she is stalling or just not going to admit any faults ...“

“Starbucks is always great! I visit Starbucks about 4 or 5 times a week--I know, I might have a caffeine addiction. Nevertheless, the coffee is always great; even the small sandwiches are really yummy and rather filling. The texture of their bubblegum--after a short while of chewing--is not the best. But one doesn't go to Starbucks for gum--mostly coffee, right! For the coffee- or tea-lover, starbucks will always be a great option with a large variety to choose from. There is something for everyone; that's for sure!“

“The salmon and tuna nigiri were delicious. Absolutely loved the rainbow roll too. Can’t wait to go back!!“

“Food always slaps and great service“

“the nitro cold brew is amazing. the people are friendly and very helpful“
