Staff does a good job here 5 stars, I wish I could vote separately for the menu, it's pretty tired and blah, shake it up Starbucks! You haven't wowed me in years! Price is above what it should be for the product.
I'll put this out there up front, I don't love Starbucks. As a former barista at a small but very busy shop in Arlington, VA, I usually prefer to frequent mom & pop stores and like their products; HOWEVER, I love the employees at this store. My dad comes in from out of the state every few weeks or months and has made acquaintances with them. They always remember his nickname, say very loud and friendly hellos when he walks in, AND every once in a while I visit with him and they always remember my name. It's the type of relationship you'd hope to have at a smaller business who cares about their regulars, except it's a Starbucks. Starbucks' product quality speaks for itself, you either like it or don't, but you know exactly what to expect and they're everywhere. Despite not caring for Starbucks coffee in general (which is a personal preference unrelated to this store), I'll go to this location simply because of the staff. Part of my love of coffee shops is the atmosphere, and they are better/friendlier than any other Starbucks I've ever visited, and several mom & pop shops to boot.
The Southwest veggie wrap hit the (good) spot! Oh, and the usual caramel macchiato (w/ almond milk) never fails.
They turn the fan on during the winter, talked to the manager to turn the fan down a little so people can stand it... problem solved. But as I’m posting this, that guy just about to leave because it’s cold af lmao
I've been going to this store for about 10 years. The staff has always been great and is run very efficiently. This store also does not have a high turnover of staff. So you actually get to know them if you're a Starbucks regular.
