This is the first Starbucks in Waterloo I've been to that isn't run-down. It's very clean, bright, and well taken care of. The staff are very pleasant and courteous. Reminds me of Starbucks you find around the world. I found out that it is privately owned which goes to show what a business should be like. Although an hour walk from my home, it will be my go-to Starbucks on my long walks. Bravo Zulu!
Our Barista Johanna was absolutely fantastic, the best recommendations and the most positive and cheerful attitude. She knew exactly what we should try based on the vague criteria we gave her, and suggested further modifications for sweetness preferences. I’ve never felt so welcome in a Starbucks, 11/10 please give her a raise.
As a busy UW student, Starbucks is truly indispensable. I often grab drinks and breakfast from this location, and even though I’m usually rushing to take them to-go, they’re still always pretty good. If I had more time, I’d love to sit and enjoy the atmosphere here, as it’s really quite nice.
