“Just stopped in after being away for a while and was so incredibly sadly disappointed that you no longer have French Broad chocolate available for your mochas. 😞 I used to tell everyone that you had the best mochas in the state (No exaggeration!!). Ghirardelli is so common, way too sweet, and just meh. Love the Drip vibe! Please bring it back.“

“Best cold dirty chai ever! Service was fantastic and quick. I wish I knew about this place sooner!“

“I was cruising through the local ingles drifting my buggy a little bit though the turns here in Hendersonville. The plan was to just grab a few things for work and some coffee. I will be honest and admit I am usually a Folgers kind of guy. I mean they say it is the best part of waking up, and who am I to argue. I decided to try something new, that’s when I noticed some bags sitting on a shelf towards the front of the store. Dynamite Coffee! I gave it a quick google and it turns out it is made local. I noticed one of the bags had a cannon on it. I thought it looked pretty cool, which all the bags had good looking designs. “Dynamite Expresso” was the name. I said, I am sure that it has plenty of caffeine. I poured it in the coffee maker, and when I say it smelled like heaven, I mean it. Finally, after much anticipation it finished brewing, the room was filled with the smell of happiness. As I poured it into my cup, my mouth was watering like Niagara Falls. Then, I took a sip. I would compare the taste to warm sunshine on a cold snowy day or putting on a jacket you haven’t worn in a while, and you find a $20 dollar bill in one of the pockets. It was truly amazing. Then the caffeine started to do its job. Not jittery, just a smooth ramp up of motivation and alertness. Like a plane taking off. I want to say thank you! I am sure my job would thank you too.“

“Fantastic coffee! Better than any Starbucks I’ve ever been to!“

“Their donuts are absolutely the best I have ever tasted, better than any I have ever tasted in my life, wish I lived closer 😋 ❤️🙌“

“I am here from out of town as part of the Hurricane Helene recovery effort & this Starbucks is open currently. They can’t use the espresso machine because of the water quality currently in the city but the young woman who was working yesterday and the young woman working this morning went above and beyond brewing coffee with gallon waters & making the drinks as close to “normal” as possible.
A hot cup of Starbucks coffee has been a luxury I have been looking forward to for a couple weeks and these two cups have hit the spot this week.“

“Today’s holiday cup with holiday drink is awesome!!! My niece-in-law & I communicated about these awesome cups just before I purchased mine. My nephew is stationed in Alabama and they are almost daily attendees of the local Starbucks there. I love Starbucks as a whole... utilizing for brunch greatly; & coffee very regularly... Especially most Wednesday’s, where my mother & I buy breakfast for us and our publisher; for our weekly meetings, working on our books. We alternate which location we stop at in the Asheville area, depending on our schedules otherwise, but it’s always Starbucks! 😎🤙“

“Oh, heavenly brew, so divine and fine,
Best drink of my life, a taste sublime.
Rich flavors danced on my eager tongue,
A symphony of joy, never wrong.

The barista's craft, a work of art,
Elevated coffee to a loving heart.
I'll return again, and again, and more,
To savor the bliss that this shop stores.“

“Thanks to Starbucks in Ingles for accommodating our Red Cross group's large order for coffee right at opening! You set us up and made some Red Crossers ready for a big day of smoke alarm installations!“

“We came in from out of town to relax and have a drink. I ordered coffee and my wife ordered a martini. We didn’t know that you weren’t able to have alcohol outside (although someone at another table had a martini as well). We had our dogs with us and we apologized profusely when the bar manager Victoria came outside and mentioned it. As we were gathering our things, we could hear her inside talking about how she’s tired of this “sh*t” , telling patrons at the bar. Initially we ignored it since we were trying to have a relaxing time in a new town. She kept on so I went in and asked if she was talking about us loud enough to where we can hear her outside! She apologized and said there are signs on the tables. First of all, there was one sign on a table that was written on what looked like a piece of paper and you could barely read the words. There was NO sign on our table and she said people take them off. I don’t like people insinuating that I’m doing something I didn’t do. We paid a 30 percent gratuity for the service we received and this is the treatment your customers receive?! Unbelievable! I told her it’s probably not in her best interest to insult and berate customers that are spending their hard earned money in your town.“

“Just went through with my fiancé to get some refreshers after work. We haven’t tried this location before but since we had to come out this way, we gave it a shot. First off, the drinks are absolutely amazing. I haven’t had one made this great in a while. The staff were very kind and trying their best. It took a while to get through their drive thru but ONLY because they’re short staffed and that’s not the employees fault. They were kind and compensated us for having to wait (very unexpected, we didn’t mind waiting since they explained what was happening; but we appreciated them going above and beyond!) They were kind, hard working and had smiles on their faces. All I can say is Starbucks, get them some more staff when you can! I’ve worked in food service before and it’s not for the faint of heart, especially when you’re short staffed and busy. I admire them keeping a positive attitude even when, I’m sure, they were worn out. Thanks guys!“
