“Starbucks on 85th & Minnesota: A Convenient Stop for Sioux Empire Residents and Real Estate Pros!
As a local real estate agent with the Dave & Co. Real Estate Team, I’m always on the go, showing homes and meeting clients around the Sioux Empire. The Starbucks on 85th and Minnesota Avenue in Sioux Falls, SD, has quickly become one of my favorite coffee spots in the area.
It’s conveniently located near several growing neighborhoods like Harrisburg, Prairie Hills, and the new developments along 85th Street, making it an easy stop during a busy day. The drive-thru is efficient, and the staff is always friendly, which is a big plus when you're grabbing coffee between showings.
Inside, the atmosphere is clean and modern—perfect for a quick meeting or catching up on emails. I’ve even seen a few fellow professionals using it as a mobile office. The drinks are consistent with what you’d expect from Starbucks, and I appreciate the seasonal options they rotate throughout the year.
If I had to point out one thing, it’s that the drive-thru can get a little backed up during peak hours, but that’s just a sign of how popular this location has become.
Whether you're a new Sioux Falls homeowner, house hunting in the area, or just passing through, this Starbucks is a solid choice for your coffee fix.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Great spot, great service, and perfect for busy days in the Sioux Empire!“
“My cat ended up destroying my drink as soon as I got home with it, I went back and told them about it and the ladies here made me a new one free of charge. I will forever choose this location because of the people and the great service I recieve every time I've came here.“
“I got a mint hot chocolate and two puppachinos. When i ordered through the drive thru, the young man asked if i wanted it hot. I was kind of confused. Is there another way that I'm not familiar with?Anyway, it was really good. And the perps loved their cups of whipped cream!“
“Went to the Starbucks at HyVee! Wanted to know if they sold the syrups. After getting my questions answered the lady went to talk to management about buying one. She came back and said yes! Thank you for all the help and answering all my questions! Great experience and will be using them for all my drinks and needs!
Parking: Great parking!“

“Every week I come to work inside the Starbucks. Today I had Caramel Crunch Frappuccino is super delicious. Work and coffee are the best combination. This store I love, it’s clean, nice and calm place to work.
Parking: Easy , easy
Wheelchair accessibility: Close the front door has accessibility table, easy to use restroom too.“
“The fact that this is on-site in this hotel, is a big plus. The location is perfect. I sat outside to people watch and precisely what I needed. It was about 8am, and there was only one person in line. Surprising, for a Starbucks. Like most, fairly calm no rush. My americano was perfect, and those mini breakfast bites were just the fuel I needed. Great and friendly baristas, as well.“
“Been coming to this location for a few years now, never a poor experience. Most notably today, ordered 14 drinks for my team of physicians and Nurses, and within 15 minutes all drinks were out and prepared when I walked in. Wonderful service, great team.“
“5 stars for the 2 ladies working in the Starbucks in the Hyvee. They couldn’t redeem my sister’s birthday drink points (her app froze and when she went back in she couldn’t get her free birthday drink), but they were kind and gave advice, so we ordered from them just because of their kindness.There was also a funny incident where my sister thought my mocha was hers when they asked if we wanted whipped cream, and my sister got so excited about it that they asked her if she wanted it on her drink too lol then she realized but was still happy that they asked just because she was so excited.Thank you ladies! I hope your kindness is rewarded back to you.“
“It is a Starbucks, if you go expecting Starbucks you will be happy. The kids working were nice and I love the brownies. The atmosphere shouldn't be a question on here. There products as with most coffee joints are overpriced, but still taste delicious.“
“Ordered off the Christmas Menu and it didn't disappoint* Sugar Plum Cream Cheese Danish with Caramel Brulee Latte* The coffee was just the right kind of sweet, the preserves on the Danish tasted like Grama's toast and jam. Check it out, it was yummy ?.“
“I felt obligated to share how this Starbucks location really helped me. I was starting to have a panic attack while leaving the Walmart parking lot and pulled in for some relief for a moment and you happen to be giving out new samples of some Watermelon drink that was just fizzy enough and the drive through gal was so calm and nice that all this added together to help calm me enough to drive safely home and I really appreciate this.“
“Compared to other starbucks in the city, I’ve had the best experience at this one. I’ve rarely had a mediocre coffee from this location. Workers are always nice but definitely seem stressed. Be nice to your baristas people! They’re human too, I promise they want your coffee to be good just as much as you do !“
“The day I came, there was a smaller women working, I regret to not remember her name. She was like a breath of fresh air. From the moment I stepped in, to thanking me for coming in…. She had the best energy about her. I stopped there I would say a month ago and I still think about her positive vibes ✨“
“Overall most Starbucks are a great atmosphere and the drinks are good. But can y’all just make the caramel drizzle n toppings free at this point? Every Starbucks in Sioux Falls forgets my toppings nearly every single time n I’m over having to walk back in to have someone fix it. Sounds small but I do pay for it and it’s something I look forward to when I order the drink that I do.“
“I was just at this location and I told the person helping me that I've been awake for to long and needed something to keep me awake for longer and the drink that this lovely human made for me is breathtaking. Thank you so much Sam, I hope managers read this reviews and you get the props you deserve!“
“After receiving some awful news today, I had to get on the road for a very long drive so completely unprepared, I decided to stop and get a coffee on my way out of town. As I sat sobbing in the drive thru, these girls delivered my coffee with a chocolate croissant and a note that said "I hope you feel better💓" Thank you ladies! I cried harder. but it made me feel better! you deserve the 🌎. Thank you!“
“Got myself a really great coffee this morning. They even left a really nice Heart on my coffee. NOT a lot of places at Starbucks does this! So Go get yourself a good blonde Vanilla Latte at this location. The Atmosphere and service have a satisfying“
