Starbucks in Portland

“Though Starbucks as a corporate entity needs to work on improving wages and labor practices, I do appreciate this Fremont cafe. The staff pay close attention to every customer and consistently make good drinks. There’s absolutely no pretense and overall the space welcomes all types of thirsty humans.“

“The team makes this Starbucks stand out from others. They're welcoming and make an effort to remember your name. Nice!
Side note: I go here on the weekend to write. Love that you can get a real cup and plate. I nerd out with my own knife, fork, and napkin. No waste ?“

“This is one of the nicer locations in downtown. Across the street from Powell's Books and alot of places nearby. The baristas are very nice and they do their job well. I have a favorite one and her name is Allie. She is always polite to me and she does my drinks perfectly. Whenever she's working I specifically ask for her to make my drink.“

“I had the most delightful interaction with Ellie at this location yesterday. Her authentic and kind customer service skills are something that can't be taught. The customer behind me was hard of hearing, and Ellie had to repeat herself multiple times, but she assisted the customer with such grace and a cheerie disposition - it's as if she just walked off the set of Mary Poppins. Little moments like that matter. Thank you, Ellie! Keep shining!“

“I'm not the Starbucks order in this house, but we are glad to have one near Providence hospital and offices for a post visit coffee.

This place seems like it does a lot of online orders and has a big pick up bay for those.

Staff were great when they figured out we wanted an in person order.

A few outside 2 tops.

Some easy street parking nearby despite the busy intersection nearby .“

“The only thing I would change would be the outlet ports. Making them close to the tables for laptop users and so forth. In Oregon the Starbucks changes the password everyday, if your like me my brain is confused by how many numbers I've been remembering everyday. Great Starbucks. I've decided to leave reviews as I go along my journey if I run into complications. None the less, it's still a great place to enjoy the cafe experience.“

“It's kind of weird Google is asking you whether this place has a bar and all this other stuff it's just a drive-thru coffee place for a Starbucks I think they have some small seats out in the very back but yeah it's kind of cool what I really liked best about it is that honestly I just love using the app picking up my coffee and these folks just always do a perfectly so I really like Starbucks a lot if you can tell.. I'm going to miss it a lot when I go overseas but you know I'm sure they have Starbucks all around the world but yeah the ones here in Portland are probably the best not going to lie. Whether you're out of town or you're just right in the neighborhood you're going to love the Starbucks is that are just around here. I mean I've always had a super cool experience“

“Staff is great. Whoever is doing the hiring here needs a raise and so do Wolf and Ty.
They make a mundane task such a getting coffee fun.
Other than the people, the store is exactly what you would expect from a star bucks anywhere in the country with the exception of the ones built into places like Target or an Airport. (Those are always worse)“

“I have a great experience everytime I come to this location, everyone is super friendly and attentave, I have alot of respect for this store in particular for having so much patience with other customers, hoping to spread awareness with this review so that the awesome employees get the patience and respect they deserve, much love!!“

“They’re always so nice at this Starbucks! It’s a great location, too. I only wish the seating inside was cozier — it feels a bit oddly fractured, as seating goes. But overall, it’s a solidly pleasant experience every time we go to this spot :)“

“There's a certain employee that works there that I always notice their car, but I've never learned who it belongs to. Their license plate stays in the mind. I actually look forward to seeing it. Almost like it's agreeing that this is a good place to get coffee every time I leave. Always so happy.

Vegetarian options: So many fruit and nut prepackaged trays.“

“I hadn't been to this location in a few years. The updating/upgrades are quite nice. No indoor seating, but plenty of outdoor tables and, of course, the drive thru. I liked the creation of shade at the order window! My drink was crafted perfectly, too!“

“This is my favorite Starbucks location I’ve been to. The atmosphere is very calm, there is always cozy music playing and the seats are quite comfortable! The service is incredible, in three years of coming here weekly nothing I’ve ever ordered didn’t taste delicious and the baristas always ask people how they’re doing and genuinely care about the answers. 1000/10, would (and absolutely will) come here again!“

“We’re here visiting Portland from Charleston, SC. We really enjoyed that the atmosphere here was so pleasant and friendly. The gentleman that checked us out, Kyle, and as so nice and accommodating. He helped me make a black tea into a southern tasting sweet tea. Very appreciative. Even got to pet a friendly dog while we were here. Overall seems like a great spot.“

“I come here often and always have great service but wanted to give a special shout out to the girl that just helped me. Im terrible at catching names, but she was the only one working at 4:25 today 9/24. I made a mistake with an online order and she was so kind to make the drinks for me the way I intended and was just superb.“

“Excellent customer service! The workers were incredibly fast, knowledgeable, and welcoming. The store is clean and well organized.

Barista Mike is the best. I was looking at merchandise shelves before ordering, he must’ve noticed because he asked if I had any questions about the beans. It was a small gesture that made me feel genuinely valued as a customer. #PromoteMike #MikeforCEO

My drink also came out incredibly fast and was made perfectly. Thank you for the outstanding service!“

“This location is my new favorite spot! I love that there is ample seating in what feels like an inviting environment, and plenty of outlets that I can use to keep my device charged. These are the kinds of things that enhance the Starbucks experience. Every time I've gone, my very customized drink order has been fabulous, and my pastries delicious. The baristas have been great- in particular one young woman who somehow remembered 'my drink' after two visits. Certainly not necessary- but it made me feel great!“

“the staff is so nice! I come in here pretty regularly, i used to come in like almost everyday to study/do school work after school but now its like every week or so, but they always have been so kind & make my orders SO well! I come in with my friends, family, whoever & they def remember their regulars and just great people overall! love this location and i look forward to them everytime i go“

“We've been to this Starbucks maybe 30 times and have had consistently good experiences, but I was inspired to write a review today after watching two of the baristas make drinks. They were amazing! Super fast and super good teamwork. It was like watching pro players playing Overcooked (It's a video game). Keep up the great work!“

“The store was OK. The staff seemed to give a lot of grace to the most likely unhouse patrons loitering in the store. There is limited seating with electrical access, a tight space for four to sit.
This is not a Starbucks to enjoy a working coffee. It is best for a quick stop or drive through.
The staff was very friendly.

Parking: There appeared to be an abandoned vehicle in the parking lot that was filled up like a storage container, including the drivers seat and dashboard. This made the parking lot less appealing and used up valuable customer parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: The interior through ways are tight, there is limited wheelchair seating. The disability parking space is next to an active parking lot driveway and across the parking lot some 30 feet from the building. It does not feel very safe from moving vehicle hazards.“

“It was very quiet when I went in as it was near the end of the day. This is kind of an unusual location and sort of out of the way. Im happy to know it's there when I am working in that area. The employee was helpful and filled my water bottle with ice for me.“

“It's a nice place to be and they make your coffee great.

Vegetarian options: Cakes and coffee.

Parking: It's a parking lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level. Push button.“

“The cashier is RUDE AS HELL, SLOW AS HELL.....I WAS HELL. I can't go n2 a Safeway or Freddy's w/o getting a frap. On top if the rudeness... with a hat on top of brassy , bushy red hair he looks like a cowboy. Bag experience all the way.“

“I was never much of a Starbucks customer until about 1 year ago. Me and my husband started doing the challenges on the app and learned more about other drinks and food options. This location is truly the best location ever. My husband works a blue collar job so there are days we are on the road 3:00 am. This Starbucks is 7 minutes from his works and without a doubt every single time we have EVER BEEN IN the drinks have always been exactly the same. And they are always so fast. Sometimes he will get a Carmel ribbon crunch. I place the order in line and by the time we get to the speaker box it’s already ready!! Yesterday I dropped my husband at work first and ended up going to a Starbucks that was also near by and the drink was different, staff wasn’t the same, etc. it sounds dumb but truly this is our ride or die location and we love it!!!“

“Standard Starbucks good coffee and service but the location has two entrances one off of each side of the lot onto busy one way streets leading to a bottle neck in the parking lot and confusion on the drive thru line. Had a lady who was sitting in her car lose her shit when she got boxed in trying to leave the lot. Fun way to start the day but maybe she crashed the way she sped out of there. Single car of course I’m not a monster.“

“I haven't met a barista at this location that has made me a bad drink. This is my favorite Starbucks to go to for that reason.

Today me and my mom were served by Savannah, who gave us kind and prompt service, and was very accommodating. Our requests were followed perfectly and drinks were out fast!

Thank you Starbucks and team. Thank you Savannah!“

“The employees are very friendly and the service is reasonably prompt. Sometimes the tables could be a bit cleaner. My only complaint is the large pride/trans flag flying in the coffee preparation area. We have a month for gay pride. Just went through it. Not sure why management thinks this is good for business to broadcast a political/cultural posture.“

“Best drinks I've ever had in my entire life love Starbucks so much. I recommend the strawberry acai lemonade with peach juice and no strawberries because the strawberries are yucky. they're really yucky but it's still good and I like Starbucks so yeah, recommend buy now. yummy!“

“This Starbucks is located inside of Fed Myers grocery,so its a little less busy then the other locations downtown.It was clean and efficient and the staff ate friendly.I am sure that lots of people stoo here on the way too work.I would say its ok no kind of wiw factor here.“

“Since I came to the U.S. three years ago, I have visited many Starbucks locations. However, none of them feels like home as much as this one. Both the employees and the atmosphere here are so friendly. Their smiles give me energy even in my darkest times.“

“Ever sense I came back, I’ve realized how wonderful they started to make my drinks! Perfect amount of everything, as well as cool little doodles on the side. And even when they were still about to close they still said it was fine to order. I guess it wasn’t as bad as I thought! Great Starbucks! Thanks!“

“I could already tell that this would be the best drink I've had since working at one myself. I ordered a brown sugar shaken espresso with white mocha and vscf. It was beautifully and completely mixed and came out so quick! Buy your groceries first and get cash back to tip.‼️If you don't have a dollar to tip for a drink you should not be getting a drink‼️ These people run a great kiosk and deserve an up to date oven! Safeway needs to do better for these people. Watched a family order 4 sandwiches I believe, and they were still coming out after the 3rd person was ordering. Corporate stores get taken care of with new equipment and there is no reason kiosks can't have the same. Opportunitys for customers to be upset there isn't a standard at all Starbucks'“

“My youngest daughter loves a Starbucks cake pop. She saw a brand new cake pop she always asked to me can I get a new cake pop? When we were there she saw the bullseye’s cake pop lol and she was happy so much ? crews are kind and generous.“

“Even on early, grumpy mornings, Justice and Maya at Starbucks never fail to brighten my day. Their warm smiles and sweet energy are unmatched. They always greet me with a smile, remember my name and usual drink, and make every visit feel personal and warm. Their kindness truly makes my day! ❤️“

“I thought it was going to a long wait when I arrived and the line was through the parking lot and on to Glisan. I was pleased to be wrong. The total time in the drive thru, including ordering and receiving the order LESS THAN 8 MINUTES, well under 3 from order to window. To keep a line moving like takes true ROCK STARS!- shout out to the morning crew on 11/14/2024. Super friendly staff but not overly perky, coffee was extra yummy!“

“Highly recommend the Starbucks within QFC at Bethany shopping center. Excellent customer service, great drinks. Cathy the barista was the highlight of my visit, super friendly and even asked how I was doing and what I was up to today. Will definitely be visiting again!“

“This Starbucks does really well. They always make the drinks quick and good getting your requests correct every time! They should have the senior coffee like Fred Meyer's does. Old people need a discount because Starbucks is getting pretty expensive!!!“

“I'm not sure witch Starbucks this is, there all very consistent. I love most, however I stopped by the Hood River Starbucks by the bridge, about the same time, i had the worst experience ever.I had to repeat myself about five times to the clerk, and then it got bad, a co worker got mad because I spoke up a. Bit loudly to the cashier.In retaliation she made my order wrong, and when I called her on it she got mad and took a extra long time.I all ways try to say positive comments, but not this time.My compliant is not so much about the cashier as it is about the cashier's helper.I will not be returning to Hood River Bridge Starbucks.“

“Good & fast service! It’s a convenient location on the way to work. I’m one of those annoying people that puts in trenta sized orders with lots of add ons- they’ve always gotten them right and have been very nice when i go to pick up. Never had any issues and will be making this my staple from now on (so sorry to the workers)“

“I had above and beyond service here the other day! Sometimes the Safeway locations aren't as good because the training is different, but the employee that took my order repeated it back and was really quick despite being the only employee there trying to get through a line.“

“It's clean, and neat. The service is great, however they had my name wrong last week, and maybe that's my fault for not speaking loud enough maybe, I don't know, it kinda irritated me a little I suppose that day, but I also get it. People don't always have a name to pronounce so easily. However this starbucks is nice most all the time, I have confidence they will get it right next time perhaps. My daughter loves the matcha there.“

“Lindsey who works the register started remembering my name after my first few days in a row of being there when she was working. I frequent Starbucks as I work all around the city and never had an employee acknowledge me as a regular. Thanks Lindsey!“

“Perfectly fine Starbucks. Parking is a bit tight, especially if the drive-thru is backed up, but I recommend using the walk-up window whenever possible, as it's much faster. The traffic makes everything loud, so not a great place to sit and have a drink or food, but there are tables with umbrellas if you need them.“

“Sweet friendly staff. They made me a sample of the new green matcha lavender drink before I purchased it because it was slow and I asked in detail about the lavender. Ive never had that experience before eithout it being made for a whole dining area. Remember to carry dollars to tip establishments that don't allow or "do" credit card tips. I don't like the prices of the food at Starbucks and I've worked there so it isn't my deal but I do go for new drinks. Know what you like and you'll have a good time. Conveniently located next to their grocery store cafe area so there is a larger seating space than many store Starbucks. My guy liked his quad mocha. Per usual we did breve. It's nice to get special coffee sometimes.

“I love the Starbucks inside my local Safeway on 10th and S.W. Jefferson St. It is great in many ways, but most if all is the friendliness of the start working there. I was surprised on my second trip the girl at the counter said " Hello Laura." She knew my name from my previous visit. I felt very good about going there because she remembered my name and it made me feel welcome and at home with my Local Starbucks.( The third trip she recited my drink as I started to place my order. She said "Large Mocha frapachinno, no whipping cream, and extra shot of espresso, and a puppachino for your puppy?" I thought "wow.....she remembered that after two visits?" Awesome Starbucks in downtown Portland.“

“Starbucks — Portland, Oregon 🌲☕🇺🇸

🌧️🌿🚗
In Portland, Oregon, this Starbucks feels different from the sun-soaked stops of California or the highway rhythm of the Midwest. Here, even coffee comes with a Pacific Northwest mood

🌲☁️☕
Portland has that quiet, thoughtful energy — trees, gray skies, rain on pavement, people moving at their own pace. You feel it immediately. Even a chain café somehow absorbs the city around it

🚙🛣️🧥
This is the kind of place where travelers stop to warm up, locals grab drinks before disappearing into the drizzle, and everyone looks like they know exactly where they’re going

🎧📚✨
Inside, it’s more than coffee. It’s a pause button. A dry place, warm lights, the smell of espresso, and a little reset before stepping back into Oregon weather

🌧️🌉🌲
Portland doesn’t try to impress loudly. It wins quietly — with atmosphere, character, and that calm urban nature vibe. This Starbucks reflects that perfectly

🇺🇸🛻
Some stops are about caffeine. This one feels more like a moment inside the Pacific Northwest itself“

“This Starbucks is quite nice. The place is clean, the staff is generally friendly, and everything works as expected. You can’t really expect too much from a Starbucks, but overall, this location is excellent. It’s a good spot to grab a coffee and spend some time.“

“Strbucks is really great place for meet up get together with friends and for ofcourse the coffee, been a member for long time now and it's awesome, except for most of the baristas failing to pronounce my name even though it's clearly printed in front of the cup and on my strbucks phone app. My Name is MIKAEL AND NOT MICHAEL this frasturates me a lot. But other than that strbucks is a respected and reliable place for coffee.“
