“It's my first time visiting this location and I like the design of the space when I first walked in. And then I was welcomed by friendly staff, and even got a special treat because they were closing early. I also noticed that the store was pretty clean. Will definitely come to visit again!“
“Unlike any Starbucks, I've ever been in, this seemed like
An expensive shop. They weren't as friendly as the ones i've been to in the south, but they were making a lot of effort to be efficient.And quick. This location had a large number of food.Items that looked yummy and ones.I've never seen another starbucks! We just had a drink and it was great.“
“I recently moved away for a few months but came to this Starbucks all year last year. The customer service here is always above and beyond, management is top-notch and seems to care about the customer experience. I can’t tell you the countless times they went out of their way to make sure I was taken care of.“
“This Starbucks has consistently impressed me with its exceptional customer service. As a regular, I've never had a bad experience. The store is always clean and well-organized. The drinks are fresh and the staff is incredibly friendly. It's the best Starbucks I've been to.“
“"Was roaming NYC and desperately needed a bathroom. Stumbled into Starbucks, not planning to buy anything, but The crew was super cool about it, no hassle to buy anything to use the restroom. Ended up grabbing a drink anyway, plus they threw in a spring coffee cup for free! ?☕️ Major kudos to this Starbucks for being so chill and friendly. #CityLifeSavior #StarbucksKindness #UnexpectedJoy #ReviewAroundWorld“
“This is my favorite Starbucks. The staff here are always competent, always in a good mood, and they always make great drinks. I really love this place. It’s wonderful that this is the only coffee shop on our island and at the same time the very best. Many thanks to the Starbucks team!“
“I love this place! It was my first time coming to this location and I was greeted energetically upon entering. I received my iced lavender oat milk matcha and ham and Swiss croissant in a timely manner. The drink even had a sweet message on it! And when I was leaving, I was bid a sincere farewell. AMAZING customer service here at this Starbucks location!“
“I almost didn’t go because of these dramatic reviews. It’s completely fine, there’s plenty of tables, I visited at 3pm on a Saturday and had no issue finding a seat for two. No, your family of 6 can’t sit down in this restaurant. If you’re travelling solo or in a pair you’re fine.“
“Good service. Nice seating options. The seating area is rectangle making this location less cozy and more appropriate for grab and go. Mix of high chairs and sofas. Restroom present. I had a pistachio latte. It was tasty, The flavors certainly reminded me of pistachio but there is a slight artificial aftertaste. For the most part, one can ignore it. This is the inherent taste of the product and not the fault of the barista.“
“I recently stopped by Starbucks for a hot latte, as it was freezing outside and I needed something to perk me up. The store was beautifully decorated for the holidays, which gave it a cozy and festive vibe. It was quite busy, with lots of other customers enjoying their drinks and snacks, but the atmosphere felt lively rather than hectic.
While waiting for my coffee, I sat on one of the bench seats, which was a comfortable touch. My latte arrived just in time, piping hot and perfect for the chilly weather. The entire experience was delightful, from the welcoming holiday ambiance to the satisfying coffee that lifted my spirits. I’ll definitely be back for more!“
“Today, I told myself I needed to take a moment to leave a review. As always, I can count on this Starbucks location for fast, friendly, and consistently excellent service.
But today was different. Due to personal issues, I wasn’t quite myself. Jodi immediately noticed and, without missing a beat, lightened the mood with a joke as she rang up my usual order. She even took the extra step to write an additional kind note on my cup.
I wish I had taken a photo before throwing it away.
This type of customer service doesn’t come naturally to most, but it's obviously second nature for Jodi, and I am so appreciative of my overall experience, especially on a day like today.
I hope this message reaches her. Thank you, Jodi, for simply being you!“
“This Starbucks is always such a great stop! The staff are friendly and welcoming, and I really appreciate how first responder friendly they are. The location is kept clean and comfortable, and my drinks are always made just right. Definitely one of the better Starbucks around!“
“Loved my experience here!!! Gorgeous store, but I didn't know it was there until I bumped into their manager at another store. Signage outside doesn't let people know this gem of an experience is waiting! Loved the delicious food and the comfy sofa I relaxed on after a long morning of rubbing around. If I could give it more stars I would.“
“I had one of the best experiences I’ve had at a starbucks at this location. Katie as my cashier and she was so nice and lovely while taking my order. I was having trouble pulling up a coupon from my app and she helped me place my order with such ease and kindness. The inside space is very cozy, clean, and relaxing. My drink came out so quickly and was delicious as well( iced lavender oat matcha). Convenient spot since it’s close to the Q too. This made my day! Thank you again.“
“I work relatively close to this Starbucks and have been on many occasions. Shoutout to the amazing staff who ALWAYS greets you when you walk in the door, and are always in such a good mood despite how busy it may be. Probably my favorite Starbucks in NYC. I usually order on the App beforehand. It’s always ready and waiting for me as soon as I arrive. This team deserves recognition for what they’re doing here!“
“✨ Regarding Henry ☕💫✨
Shoutout to Henry at the 540 Columbus Ave Starbucks, my Chai hero! 🙌 He didn’t just take my order, he put heart into it. My Gr Vanilla Syrp EX Chai Heavy Cream was crafted with true artistry hunny 💅💗 After two years in India, Masala Chai ruined me for American versions, but Henry brought me comfort in a cup.
Joshua and the whole team deserve love, but Henry… you’re the flavor in life that keeps us sipping! 🌸✨
#RegardingHenry #NYCStarbucks #StarbucksMagic #FlavorfulLife #CreamAndChai #540Columbus #GreatCustomerService“
“Store # 7427- 1917 = 5 STAR rating because Cali was very patient and knowledgeable in explaining the differences between the coffee drinks which demonstrates great customer skills. Cali made sure my drink was to my liking and delicious. Cali is a great representative of this Starbucks ! The place was also clean and the ambience very cozy, spacious and comfortable.“
“I work by this Starbucks and let me tell you they are the best they make the best drinks that I have ever tasted in my life and they never miss so good luis is the man that drink you just made me was sooo good sheee I'm actually coming again to get another one while writing this review 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆“
“Came to Starbucks this afternoon for my birthday drink, and the two baristas were amazing! They made my drink exactly as I requested and even drew a cute birthday greeting on my cup. Such a sweet and thoughtful gesture- - - - - -made my day!“
“This Starbucks café is on a public plaza, Worldwide Plaza. While it is true the indoor café has limited seating and no bathrooms for customers, the outdoor Worldwide Plaza has outdoor facing public restrooms and ample outdoor seating with two other restaurants and a quiet, pleasant atmosphere with the fountain during warm months. To use the single person gender neutral restrooms (two of those) meet a security guard in yellow jacket or shirt and ask to be let in. The bathroom isn’t ideal, but well appreciated.“
“I got an iced matcha latte here. It was really really good, but the sweetest matcha I have ever had. I don't know if you can tell them to adjust the sweetness level but it was good nonetheless. The place was clean and the service was fairly quick but the other person I was with was pretty sure that they messed up her order. She ordered black tea and thought they gave her a fruit tea. The prices were as expected for Starbucks in NYC, $6.25 for a grande. However, both drinks were good and I was honestly pretty impressed with my matcha, I will definitely be ordering the same thing next time I go to a Starbucks.“
“Our greeter was Vanity and our Baristas were Miguel, Sebastian and Ben. As soon as we walked in the door they were so welcoming and Vanity recommended some amazing new drinks/food to try. Im moving in a week, but will make the detour to come to this store due to the phenomenal customer service“
“Went recently on my birthday to claim my birthday drink. I stopped in person to place my order. Kerri the manager of the location was amazing. She mentioned happy birthday and let me choose what I want any size and any preference of the drink. I was impressed by her great team spirit of leading an amazing team. The drink was made within a few seconds. I highly recommend this place for coffee.“
“Waiting on my order and I noticed how friendly the staff is and that they really know their customers and their custimer's children! I have been to Starbucks in over 40 states and this location displayed the highest level of friendliness, caring as well as relationships with the ones they are providing for.
I can't wait to come back!
Kid-friendliness: The staff knew their customers' kids and interacted well with them.. noticing the little things (eg, doll has same outfit as child)“
“Stopped here today to do some work emails and observed this amazing staff as they maneuvered an unexpected NYC crowd. Kenny stood out to me as one of the baristas that will always make you smile , welcomed you as you entered the store and wished everyone a great day. One of the best teams at starbucks!“
“Exceptional Service by Ebonie and Team!
I can't say enough good things about the Starbucks on 95-96 Broadway, thanks to the amazing baristas who work there, especially Ebonie! No matter how far I am, this location will always hold a special place in my heart. Ebonie has a magical touch when it comes to crafting drinks that go beyond the ordinary. From the butterscotch topping to the brown sugar shaken espresso and the lavender cream frappe, she always knows how to surprise and delight me.
What truly stands out about Ebonie is her friendly and approachable demeanor, as well as her remarkable ability to remember her regular customers and their preferences. It's the personalized service that keeps me coming back, knowing that I'll be greeted with a smile and my favorite drink made just the way I like it. Ebonie, thank you for making each visit a special experience. You are the reason I choose this Starbucks location time and time again!“
“Honestly this is one of my favorite Starbucks in Manhattan. The seating is spread out nicely and not too crowded in the earlier mornings. In my experience with the morning staff, I’ve always been greeted with some of the best early morning energy. There is a bathroom in this Starbucks which, well as any public restroom goes, you get what you get.
But overall this is one of my top picks. The morning staff also work FAST I often order while getting off the train at the station right next to the doors here and my drink is ready by the time I’m walking up the stairs. Little things that make the morning better.
While my experience here is mostly exclusive to the mornings I still recommend this location above the 57th and Lex location which does not have seating for example ☺️“
“I sometimes ask for a glass of water at Starbucks especially today that the temperature is so high: 87°F. This location is at Manhattan West. We got there to enjoy the public space and a delicious breeze made the moment pleasant. However, I had to send my water back for ice. They were open and gave me very cold water. The bubble tea was bubbly delicious ?“
“The place is cool and has a lot more options then a regular Starbucks. But there really isn't enough seating in there. The merch is different then a typical Starbucks. Your can purchase things with the Starbucks app but you can not redeem Starbucks rewards here.“
“This is a medium-sized Starbucks with one accessible, gender-neutral restroom. The barista will share a code with your order. We ordered an Iced Green Tea and Cold Brew. There is limited half-booth seating and it wasn’t that busy on a Sunday afternoon in September. Would definitely recommend as a pit stop to refresh on your coffee or tea and use a clean restroom.“
“The people here are just great. Friendly, helpful, and just plan great to work with. When I bought two breakfast items and a latte, the machine stopped working. The staff was immediately friendly about it and told us of the situation. When the machine kept being unavailable, they told us that it was on the house and to enjoy our day. They wouldn't even take cash, which we insisted but they denied regardless. Just good people working to uplift others' day which we have never seen at any other starbucks location. Cheers again to this team.“
“I was visiting NYC from Canada and had one of the best Starbucks experiences thanks to the whole team and especially incredible baristas—Chris and Chariece. From the moment I walked in, they were both so warm, kind, and genuinely attentive. They made sure my drink was just right and even checked in to see if everything was okay.
Chris had such an awesome energy—so upbeat and friendly—and Chariece was equally lovely, thoughtful, and welcoming. They went above and beyond by recommending a few places to visit in the city, which meant a lot since I was travelling from Canada.
Little moments like these make such a difference. Huge shoutout to Chris and Chariece for making me feel so cared for and making my NYC trip even more memorable. Starbucks is lucky to have them!“
“Manhattan boasts numerous Starbucks locations, each offering a consistent and reliable coffee experience for busy New Yorkers and tourists alike. While the ambiance might vary depending on the location, you can always expect friendly service, a comfortable atmosphere to relax or catch up on work, and of course, their signature brews and pastries. For those seeking a more unique coffee experience, Manhattan offers a plethora of independent cafes, but Starbucks remains a convenient and dependable option for a quality caffeinated pick-me-up.“
“Gigi is amazing, I had an accident and dropped my whole drink (almost cried) and she saved my day. Her kindness and customer service is exceptional, she really made my day, my drink was delicious to top it off. Jay did a great job taking my order, didn’t miss a beat. Even the young man cleaning the lobby was very pleasant. Thank you. Great staff and location.“
“I went in on Sunday evening Aug 3rd, and I wanted to say thank you to this young lady Gaby who gave everyone exceptional service. It was only her and another young man, she was very attentive and respectful and made everyone’s drink quickly and perfectly. She was very friendly and made the experience feel personable. I will definitely be back at this location!“
“Great location in Midtown Manhattan by the Lexington Train station. Always crowded and the baristas are very pleasant. Nice place to grab a coffee and watch people walk down 3rd Avenue. They have a bit longer than usual waiting with the hot drinks, but their drinks are very tasty.“
“Big roomy S’bucks with high ceilings and elegant decor on a prize corner near Grand Central. Friendly service and spacious area for picking up drinks. Bustling business types talking shop. Third space galore, but also so gigantic than the app crowd goes in and out. Nice place to grab an espresso before strolling around.“
“Amazing service at the 284 st. Nick location.
I was welcomed at the door by one employee, acknowledged in line by another employee. My cashier complimented & made a suggestion at the register with a smile. My order was made and handed to me with PERFECTION. I felt welcomed and appreciated each step of the way. Thank you for your service to everyone on duty today Aug 4th.“
“The reason I try to find a perfect Starbucks store is because I love to have conversation with the staff while ordering and their kind attitude towards me. Well, finally I did! This location as a separate lounge on the 2nd floor (which was closed when I went) and I saw the seating availability was great. The staff at the counter was really kindhearted when she asked for my order. One thing for ya'll: do say thank you when you get your coffee or a kind word would be even better!“
“The service was excellent, with the staff serving everything with a smile. The café itself is spacious and cozy, offering plenty of comfortable seating where you can relax or work in a calm atmosphere. A great spot for both a quick coffee break or a longer stay!“
“The best barista is Nash, she makes the drinks with a passion. She also knows her customers and remembers each drink, and how they like it. When she isn’t in the shop the quality of the atmosphere of the shop drastically drops. She is a light in this dark “
“This starbucks is amazing the atmosphere is great and the service is also fantastic, the only thing about starbucks that i am conflicted about is the fact that you need to purchase an item to get a cup of water with ice, in which the water is tap water. You might as well charge to get a water cup because of the prices of items at Starbucks. Im not mad, just disappointed.“
“Amazing Improvements & Outstanding Service!
I’ve been coming to the Starbucks at 66th and 3rd regularly, and I have to say—the changes over the past year have been truly impressive. The store feels more organized, the service is quicker, and the overall atmosphere is so much more welcoming and positive.
A huge shoutout goes to Shift Supervisor Kevin his presence alone has made a noticeable impact. Kevin is incredibly hardworking, professional, and genuinely cares about both his team and the customers. He always greets people with a warm smile, makes sure orders are right, and goes the extra mile to ensure everyone has a great experience. You can tell he takes pride in what he does, and it shows every time I stop by.
If you haven’t visited this location in a while, give it another chance you’ll see the difference. Thanks to Kevin and the rest of the team for making it such a pleasant place to start my mornings!“
“I rarely write reviews but I frequent this Starbucks during my morning commute into the office. They are always so busy during this time but they seamlessly & efficiently pump out orders. When I order ahead my drink is almost always waiting for me when I arrive, or very shortly after. It’s honestly impressive, they seem very organized even with the crazy volume at 9am. The staff are always so nice, offering in person greetings as I grab my drink, or writing nice notes right on the cup. The best part, no other location makes my blonde vanilla latte as good as they do. Every single time, it’s the best.“
“I’ve been in NYC for over 10 years and by far this is the best customer service. I’m a new mom, and I’ve had challenges in a select Starbucks locations where I was not given permission to use the bathroom while pregnant. At this starbucks, I felt like I was at a friend’s home. I asked the barista working if there was a diaper changing table I could use, and they went above and beyond to also bring me paper towels and additional things to help me change my baby. I’d like to recognize this starbucks for their inclusive customer service approach to mothers and children, and I hope this can be encouraged across all locations. The barista that gave me this impression and experience is named Christian. I look forward to frequently visiting, making this location my regular.“
“I honestly never thought I’d leave a review at a Starbucks if all places but this little step out of the heat to plan my day was a wonderful and noteworthy experience and that’s all thanks to the MidMorning Manager on staff.
1: it’s obvious their staff likes them just by watching their interpersonal interactions.
2: music was on point
3: it was clean, cool (temp), & entertaining
Whoever that manager with the Midwest, I assume Minnesota accent, is they deserve praise for running a very busy, tight ship with a smile and wonderfully infectious attitude.
Anything negative you read in the news would be flipped by some dung 5 mins here.
Thanks for making my morning.“
“Nichole who runs the online order pickup during weekday morning rush hour is awesome! She has my name memorized and immediately has my drink ready to hand to me when I walk in regardless of how many people are hovering over the pickup counter. I am in and out of there faster than Lando Norris on F1 pit lane! It seems she has several other regulars names memorized too which is incredible given the number of people flowing through that store. Deserves a raise/promotion!“
“This was my first time at this Starbucks and it was at the peak of the morning rush and, oh my goodness, did this location run like a well-oiled machine! It was incredible to watch how they filled orders with an unparalleled efficiency! It was like watching a masterclass in how a business should function. Plus, I just got the sense that all the employees were loving the process. It was like they all love working there and making customers' mornings better. I consider myself a morning person, but these were true morning people who deserve serious kudos! I ordered a Venti Flat White with an extra shot and it was great. Overall, a fantastic experience that did indeed start my day right!“
“I had the pleasure of visiting the Starbucks located at 475 Park Ave, NYC, and I have to say, the experience was exceptional. The staff here is professional, friendly, and attentive, making the visit enjoyable from start to finish.
What truly stood out during this visit was the perfect rendition of the Dubai drink I ordered. It was absolutely delicious—flavorful, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. The barista nailed the preparation, showcasing a keen attention to detail and a genuine passion for their craft.
This location not only offers a consistent Starbucks experience but does so with an elevated level of service. If you’re in the area and craving a top-tier coffee, this Starbucks is definitely worth a visit. You won’t be disappointed!“
“Came here the other day to pick up an order but i had stupidly sent it to another location. I know it’s almost guaranteed that they’ll honor it when you do that, but Chris was so incredibly nice about it and helped me out immediately. I also appreciated that he proactively asked me my name to check on my order after seeing me stand there for a few moments.“
