Starbucks in Athens

“I love this Starbucks. Even though I wish it were open earlier, I know that's not the kind of town we're in so I just go when I can! Everyone is really nice and welcoming. Though I stay and sit at a table and am not standing around waiting, I do notice the attention they all pay to the folks picking up mobile orders, noticing who's been waiting a few seconds longer and reaching out to be sure they know what the folks are waiting for and can update them on the progress. Oh, also, they do better than any other Starbucks I've been to around the country with warming up their bakery and breakfast products. When they do it, it is like they are fresh baked or fresh cooked. I love it. I would only offer one suggestion, that their closing crew be paid for an extra hour to take the time to clean at the end of each day instead of once a week! But that seems to be the norm for the whole town, so it may need to be a cooperative chamber of commerce project!

Wheelchair accessibility: A nice ramp inside. The door could use some work to either cut down on the tension (it takes some effort to pull open) at the least, or install an automatic door with the button.“

“Only Starbucks in Athens. Usually quick at making the drinks even though they're always busy. I'm subtracting one star because they never have any of the specialty drinks. The staff is mostly always polite If your order is simple.“
