If you’re in Goldsboro, North Carolina and need a caffeine fix that comes with lightning-fast service and a smile, Starbucks is the place to be! The baristas here operate like a finely tuned espresso machine—efficient, cheerful, and always on point. Whether you’re ordering a classic caramel macchiato or a triple-shot “I’m-not-human-yet” espresso, they’ve got it down to an art form.
The drive-thru moves quicker than a morning commute playlist, and the coffee is consistently hot, smooth, and perfectly crafted. Even during the morning rush, the team keeps things upbeat—like they secretly sprinkle good vibes into every cup.
Big thanks to the amazing crew at Starbucks Goldsboro! Your speed, professionalism, and friendly service keep us all energized and smiling as we make our rounds through Eastern North Carolina

I usually get a pink drink lite ice extra sweetener I went in this morning and ordered it and got something that was not good at all , the young lady said she didn’t know what I meant by extra sweetener so she had fixed something that had whipped cream or some floating it and she said she didn’t use coconut milk , there was a line of people so I paid for it but couldn’t drink it . Disappointed, love my pink drink

Barista was very rude, told customers she was closing soon so if we wanted to go to a different Starbucks we could. The drinks were made incorrectly (we watched).

Barista was rude to customers, and didn’t make the drinks correct added no caramel to a caramel macchiato.

Despite the Starbucks being inside a very busy Target, I was incredibly impressed by how fast, attentive, and polite the staff were. The line was long, but it moved quickly thanks to their efficiency and teamwork. Everyone behind the counter was friendly and focused, and my drink came out perfectly. Great service under pressure—huge kudos to the team working that shift! Definitely one of the better-run Starbucks locations I’ve visited.

Came here to pick up a DoorDash. I’m a struggling mom of a toddler and pregnant again. Today I went doordashing but had no money to pay a sitter to watch my son. So I waited in the drive thru I told the guy if it was okay I picked up a DoorDash, I would go inside but I had to bring my son today. His response was “I’m sorry you can’t pick up a DoorDash here it’s against store policy, I would but the store manager is here today and I would get in trouble” so if your a mom who has to bring her kids doordashing and can’t bring them inside or their too little to be left in the car do not come pick up a order here. The line for the drive thru is crazy long and crazy busy inside. I have no help and no family trying to pay my bills and all because I couldn’t carry my baby inside and grab DoorDash drinks at the same time or have help to watch my son. I could either park, come inside for the order or just forget about the order all together. If you’d risk breaking store policy ” when your store manager isn’t there with you then the least you could do is just ask her if it’s a possibility. Oh how I’d love to have a job to avoid this but no one hires pregnant women. Thought maybe Starbucks could make a exception for me since their supposed to be so friendly but I guess they only make exceptions for their customers when their store manager isn’t there.Side note/ a couple of months ago I was allowed to pick up a DoorDash from the window here and was told next time to try and come inside for their order. Which is why I didn’t think it would be a problem this time.

Young Lady seemed like she did not want to be there and had an attitude towards me (I was nice didnt make a complaint or anything). I was also looking at what they had on the display before ordering (i wasnt holding up a line nobody was behind me) and she said "HELLO" with an attitude as well. Other guy there was very nice it was just that Girl working (02/09/2024 @ 9am) . She also didnt fold the bag like the other starbucks does so when i walked out the sandwhich fell out the bag . ?

Always out of stuff. I end up always having to go down the street to the other Starbucks near the mall, or across town to Wayne memorial. Do better.
Excellent place is within target, attention to the adequate fast service

Service was good as usual. I support and appreciate the companies move towards sustainability of half its current use by 2030. I purchased my reusable cup.The disappointment I did have was in the past (it has been a good bit since going to Target and therefore not gotten my Starbucks fix at these locations) a refill of you coffee while at store location was possible upon request. I enjoyed getting my refill usually before I left it was a nice additional perk. On my latest visit of course using my reusable cup I was informed they no longer were offering this benefit. To be honest and completely fair if I remember correctly she said no to my coffee and I didn't really here anything else that I was told because it wasn't what I enjoy which is a hot white chocolate mocha no whip, but I think she did say they still do for some other drinks but sorry I don't remember what. So, it is worth still asking if you drink of choice is different. I also don't recall if that is for only Target or other locations such Barn's and Nobles or free standing sit in locations.

Ordered from them multiple times. Different people behind the counter. Playing on their phone then took my order. Handled money then made my coffee. Never once washed her hands. Both times they were very nice but they should be washing their hands after playing on their phones and handling money. No gloves either while reaching into the ice machine.

Had a bit of a wait but order was correct and service friendly so no complaints.
