Starbucks in Brooklyn

“Good place I came here every day back when I lived there but customer service could be better. This nice disabled boy comes in often. Nobody helps him. Sad to know he’s been sleeping on floors at strangers apartments 6 years now. Someone needs to give him a house of his ow. When I lived in Brookyn I let him stay on my floor for a year until I moved and now I’m doing better with a higher paying job in Ohio. He doesn’t ask for anything just to sleep on floor at night then goes during day. I wanted to take him with me here but he said he can’t go so far away. but someone needs to do more to help this guy!“

“This is more of a rant about the company itself not really the location that I picked.
it's a real damn shame that the company changed their policy on giving free ice water to customers on a really hot day. That's what you guys were known for and everyone loved it. Now you change the policy stating that you must buy something before you could get free water it's a ridiculous move on your part Your billion dollar company and you can't even give free water to people that can't afford to pay for Starbucks? You should be ashamed of yourself while you're sitting there and your AC and money all around you You take away a little opportunity that made you guys great away congratulations for being another money hungry company that does not give a shit about people but yourself.“

“This is the best Starbucks in all of NYC. I absolutely love the crew here. Sean, Kevin, Adanna, (sorry if I misspelled) & crew are geniunely the BEST to ever do it. They truly make my day better. I'm a creature of habit and they are just so consistent, kind, attentive, fun and just incredible. I love this store! The people make such a difference.“

“I love how the staff becomes one with the customers to the point, we family now!! Hey sis, hey bro...... always professional and kind 😇. Did I forget to say, they make the hell out of my chai latte ( Victor is amazing too)🤔 yuppp😍 the way they smile and greet me when I come through the doors hunny!! I'll see y'all at 6am okkkuuurrrr and my eyes roll to the back of my head when I take my first sip👌🏿☕️“

“This is one of the best Starbucks I’ve been to. All the people here are so genuinely nice, it’s become a lovely place to relax and work, and chat with them. When my bracelet broke (a gift from my mother) Gianna worked with her manager and coworkers to help me find the missing beads - it broke just as they were closing but they had the beads there for me in the morning.“

“Reliable, Comfortable, and Consistently Good

Starbucks continues to be one of the most reliable spots for a quick coffee, a comfortable place to work, or a casual meetup. The drinks are consistent—exactly what you expect every time—and the menu offers something for everyone, from classic brewed coffee to seasonal specialties that keep things fun“

“Can I just say I've been going to starbucks for over a decade off and on throughout the states. This location is absolutely peak. I was going their while visiting bay ridge for a few months. The barista Elizabeth is one of the best people I have ever met in my entire life. She is always greeting people as they come in. Also has a great sense of awareness. For a manager she works like its her first day. Also I cant forget about everyone else that works their. They always have a smile on. Always on point with the blonde roast. I love that spot and I cant wait to come back!!“

“I came on Red Cup Day 2025 to get my holiday drink and the red cup. The store was busier than usual but the team did an amazing job. They worked quickly and efficiently making drinks quickly and serving the customers. They were also very friendly despite how busy the store was. They definitely deserve a raise“

“I recently moved to the area, not too far from the Starbucks location. The service is GREAT and I’ve been a customer for quite sometime and I’ve seen some shitty stores. Everyone is exceptional here and this is NO JOKE! Clora is amazing truly a great personality. To the store manager KEEP IT UP! There aren’t too many Starbucks in east brooklyn and this is one I try to go to every time“

“❤️✨️Best coffee shop in Brooklyn!✨️❤️
This beautiful little location has the most amazing and friendly baristas. They interact with each other, and their guests, with genuine kindness and appreciation and definitely go above and beyond in cultivating a welcoming and safe environment for their guests. Additionally, they are super knowledgeable about everything Starbucks!

They all communicate with excellence and ensure to acknowledge everyone by name, whenever possible. They are all fabulous about explaining all menu options in detail to anyone who asks. They are incredible about making recommendations based on their conversations and interactions with their guests.

Definitely a 5 star plus Starbucks location for brewing and crafting coffees, espresso drinks, blended drinks, and shaken drinks.“

“Employees are lovely and efficient. This location is big, light filled and kept clean. Would visit again. Like any coffee shop, there are packed times and things may move slower than you’d like. Have patience and simply place your order ahead of time. It’s that simple.“

“Perfect spot for morning coffee and reading a book. Employees were happy friendly and there was one who knew customer names are they must of established a relationship giving the area is full of families. I had a nice visit and the coffee was perfect“

“Yesterday I came into Starbucks and had the best service. From the outstanding customer service experience from Raheem making sure that my tik tok frappé order was exactly how I wanted it. His customer service has added a new loyal and to the manager and store owner you hired a great worker“

“I bought summer berry and matcha frappccino, which taste good. It's not very sweet! It's the standard I want! That's right, the matcha is a little too bitter and the taste is too strong. There is also a male waiter. He is very patient and enthusiastic when I order!!! And there are also many positions.“

“The food was great. I got a burrito and a Mango Dragon Refresher and a cappuccino, but they messed up my drink by forgetting the whipped cream, and it took them quite a while to make me my drink. The atmosphere was nice, but im the morning, and after when people get out of work and school, it is mostly crowded but not that busy, and it goes by fast if you are just ordering to do takeout.“

“I recently visited Starbucks and had the pleasure of being served by Nelson, who made me the most delicious caramel frappe I've ever tasted. From the moment I walked in, Nelson's warm and friendly demeanor set a positive tone for my visit.

The caramel frappe itself was a masterpiece. The blend was perfectly smooth, with just the right balance of rich coffee flavor and creamy texture. The caramel was not overpowering but added a delightful sweetness that made each sip more enjoyable than the last. Nelson's attention to detail was evident, from the beautifully whipped cream on top to the drizzle of caramel sauce that added a perfect finishing touch.

It's clear that Nelson takes great pride in his craft, and it made my experience at Starbucks truly exceptional. I highly recommend visiting and hoping you're lucky enough to have Nelson prepare your drink. You won't be disappointed!“

“I finally tried the iced pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks for the very first time, and wow—I totally get why it’s such a fall staple! 🎃☕ It’s sweet, creamy, and has just the right hint of spice without being too strong. The pumpkin flavor blends perfectly with the coffee, making it taste cozy and refreshing at the same time. Honestly, it feels like autumn in a cup. 🍂✨ I’d definitely order it again, especially on those crisp fall days“

“I placed a mobile order through the Starbucks app for a **grande latte with blonde espresso, oat milk, and a triple shot**. I’ve been drinking this coffee for the past six months, so I know exactly how it’s supposed to taste.

However, the drink I received was made with **regular milk, regular espresso, and without the extra shot**. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize this until I was already on the subway and couldn’t return to the store to have it remade.

I’m really disappointed, as this isn’t the drink I ordered.“

“LOVE THE WHOLE STAFF, specially John, Tameka, Chanelle, Brianna and the 2 white girls, lol. I don’t remember their names. Everyone is always polite and fast. I’ve come mornings and evenings and while I’m not familiar with the evening staff, they’re polite and always a warm greeting as well. Some of the regulars, Tameka, Chanelle are no longer there but even the new staff are pleasant. Love them.“

“Lowkey my only go to Starbucks place! I love this Starbucks every time I go the workers are very nice and have good manners and no matter how busy they are I always receive my order pretty fast. This place is tuff i recommend 100% although it’s kinda far from my house i still come to this Starbucks over the one near my house :)“

“We came in around 2 pm today on a busy Tuesday. There were only 2 people working and it was packed. We were told ahead of time there would be a wait but ordered anyways. The two working a guy and girl were still attentive to us when taking our order and answering our questions when waiting and even so kindly packed our drinks. A lot of impatient but drinks were still being handed out efficiently. The customer service will definitely be bringing me back. Thanks for the warm smiles and message !“

“Just wanted to highlight wonderful employees. The customer service that I received today from 2 employee here turned around my morning.
The location for my mobile order was wrong after walking to 2 locations they were able to help here. Her name was shenel (I didn’t get the other persons name) and you can expect great service with every visit.“

“This is a great location. The decor is nice and comfortable and the food and drinks are great. Theres also a bathroom. One complaint though, got a refresher at this location and they didn’t put the dried pieces of fruit in it. Please understand that this is integral to the drink, so if you’re out of these fruit pieces note it in the app and I’ll order something else. Thank you!“

“I wanted the iced cinnamon dolce drink but on the app it was saying “sold out”. Went in, and Amanda confirmed they have it in stock. I was so happy. I was like a kid in a candy store. I thanked her so much. Such a cool person. And the other gentleman, I forgot his name I think it was Kevin he has tattoos. We interacted, engaged in conversation about tattoos. Great customer service. Cleanliness up to par. The atmosphere is great as well. Definitely recommend this location. Boycott where lol“

“The staff here are fantastic. I asked for a new kind of drink to try and I was walked through what ingredients are in it. Everything was delicious. My order was finished in a timely manner considering how busy it was when I wanted Starbucks. I recently moved to this area so I am excited to make this my go to Starbucks stop.“

“I visit this location pretty often and never experienced a bad service. All baristas are always polite and nice, ordering online was no problem either. Yes, during rush hour, ofc, your coffee won't be prepared right away, but in most cases, while I walked 7 minutes from home to the coffee shop, my coffee was already waiting for me at the counter.“

“The staff are really friendly and makes you feel welcome . The store is also very clean and well-maintained, which makes it a nice place to relax or get work done. Out of all the different locations, their service leaves a good impression on me.“

“Every visit to this Starbucks location feels like a warm welcome, a small pause in a busy day that I always look forward to. From the moment you push open the door, the aroma of roasted beans and vanilla notes lifts your mood, and the friendly baristas greet you with genuine enthusiasm. The bar is fast without feeling rushed, and the team seems to handle the rush hours with practiced calm, which makes a big difference during mornings.

My go-to order is a caramel macchiato, crafted with precision and served at just the right temperature. The balance between espresso, milk, and that ribbon of caramel is consistently delightful, never overly sweet. I also appreciate the rotating five-star seasonal drinks that keep things exciting without straying from the reliable quality you expect from a long-standing brand.

The pastry case is tempting, but I’m most impressed by the consistency of the core menu: smooth cappuccinos, rich lattes, and teas that bloom with aroma. Cleanliness is evident in the dining area and restrooms, and the Wi-Fi is dependable for remote work or study sessions.

What truly stands out here is the sense of community. The staff remembers regulars, asks for preferences, and makes recommendations that feel thoughtful rather than promotional. For me, this Starbucks is a dependable oasis—friendly, tasty, and consistently excellent overall.“

“You have one of the cleanest and nicest Starbucks locations I’ve been to. I asked for a small favor at the order desk — an iced Americano with ice to the top, the shot over the ice, then water to fill — and while waiting, I watched Mel prepare it. She read the order sheet perfectly and made the drink with such care and precision. I honestly thought, “She must be the manager, or at least someone who would make an excellent one.” Great job, Mel.“

“I had such a great experience at Starbucks! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home as soon as I walked in. The environment was clean, tidy, and comfortable perfect for relaxing with a coffee or getting some work done. Everything was well-organized, and you can tell they take pride in keeping the space inviting. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“There is a very big parking lot next to this place and easily you can reach there in and out for the highway. There are other shops and restaurants next to it like best buy, target kohls, five guys and .. they are very fast in providing the service. The only thing is that during covid you cant sit inside the place and you can not sit outside as there are not places available. In the morning you can smell the bacon being prepared in the area but not an important thing. It is a quick grab anywys“

“This Starbucks location is hit or miss. The last time I went there they were really nice and gave us free cake pops because they were closing. But, the other time I went there, it took half an hour for two simple drinks that were messed up. The staff was very unprofessional. But I am glad they fixed themselves.“

“I don’t live nearby but have been there twice in the last month with my granddaughters aged 6 and 9. We stop for a snack after shopping before heading home. On both occasions the young women at the register were super friendly and kind. Just hoping the management will see this!“

“I went to a Starbucks down the block and they made my drink the wrong way. I was on my way to the bank and came across this Starbucks and explained the situation. The Barista Johnathan offered to remake my drink. His excellent customer service, attention to detail and great attitude will be one of the reasons I return. Great workers really make a difference and I loved seeing his leadership.“

“Usually the place is just ok but I wanted to leave a compliment for the lady who was working at 8:40am on 12/1/2023. For some reason during this rush hour she was all by herself making drinks, food, and at the cashier. Of course the wait was long but she was the most efficient, hardworking and friendliest Starbucks barista i have ever met in NY.“

“Nice location.The baristas are nice, tables are clean, and food and drinks are ready fast. The music is a little loud at this location, but it’s still pretty comfortable and there’s a bathroom unlike other locations in the city. They also fill up cups properly and always add chunks of dried fruit in refreshers unlike other locations that sometimes skip that step. If they make a mistake with your drink they fix it without an attitude. There’s a nice mural on the wall too. I’ve frequented this location a lot and it’s really great. Shoutout to the team there! Please bring back the blackberry sage refresher and the pineapple dragonfruit one. They were so good. Mango dragonfruit is mid and strawberry açaí has been here forever. Not really a fan of these pop-in-mouth pearls in the summer drink. Looking forward to the next refresher.“

“Yes, there are rude and unkind baristas there - I will not deny that. HOWEVER, there are amazing ones. Mia and Josh are both INCREDIBLE. So sweet and kind and polite and RESPECTFUL. Always smiling, doing their job quickly and efficiently, kind to their customers, etc. If you don't like something, they will make sure to make it right for you. They always try their best. They treat you like people. I have become very good friends with them. It's always a pleasure seeing them. I am grateful for them. I honestly think they deserve a promotion and/or raise. I love these two! If you guys are reading this, see you soon, Josh and Mia :)“

“IT'S STARBUCKS..so if u know U know pricier every 6 months atmosphere controlled chaos but u know when u need yo fix ... what can u do...AM I RIGHT { MY STARBEES}.. lol I hope this cute name I thought of catches on.. hahaha STAR-BEES

Parking: Take a friend so u can jump out... or hope theres an empty spot close to it“

“So...I got the falafel wrap.... honestly I thought it might be double the size...so it wasn't really worth it for me. I also ordered the pecan crunch latte, which was really yummy. The service was nice. When I ordered, I don't think the cashier heard me say iced pecan crunch latte and the barista immediately remade the order for me, when I told him I wanted an iced one. Hopefully one of them drank it or gave it to someone who wanted it, I was going to take it and would have hated if it was just poured out.
Thank you for the nice customer service.“

“I visited this Starbucks and my barista’s name was Dominique. She greeted me with a big smile and gave me the full Starbucks experience. The store was really clean and her team was really professional. 5 stars for great service & accuracy with a delicious beverage. Well done !“

“I had a great experience at this Starbucks. The staff was friendly, my drink was made quickly, and the atmosphere was cozy and clean. The coffee tasted fresh, and I appreciated the ability to customize my order just the way I like it. A perfect spot to grab a drink or get some work done. Highly recommend!“

“Your team member name Gabby took my order and had lot of patience with me due to this being my first time trying Starbucks I didn’t know what to drink so she recommended a couple of drinks and my drink was made with love great customer service if you need any recommendations ask gabby“
