UPDATE 2: again! The problem is still there and no one seems to care! This is the last time I buy coffee from here and will switch to Dutch bros! I have attached a new picture. If I wanted to get whipped cream, I wouldnt drive to Starbucks!!UPDATE: the problem is still there. They will give you way less coffee than it should be in the cup! Just try other starbucks and youll notice it.I always get my coffee from here, but the last time I got a mocha, it was 1/3 empty!! I have bought mocha from other starbucks and was not like this. so disappointed.

Without a doubt there is a Dream Team that exists at this Starbucks that cannot replicated anywhere else on planet Earth. They are the most attentive staff known to mankind and always seem to operate with poise and patience even under the most stressful situations. Big shoutouts to Breanna, Triscuit, Reece, My favorite (Sarah), and everyone else who makes the world better from behind the counters of this Starbucks. Your jobs are not easy but yall make it happen. ONNA G

I went to Starbucks for the first time. I ordered a cold brew, it was very strong so I was adding sugar to it, but the staff here is very helpful they asked me if I am having any problem with the taste so they suggest me that they can add creamer to it. After that I really enjoyed that coffee. Thanks to the staff here they take care that every customer likes coffee as per their taste.

Great location. Fast drive through if ur skilled enough to avoid the dumpsters. Friendly staff. Nice seating with a big shared table, side bar and outdoor seating. Outlets throughout but none outside. Pretty busy with about enough seating for 20 people inside.

Absolutely the most delious Strawberry Funnel cake drink... Although I suggest to try it I just dont suggest it to be a daily drink because it can stack those calories in u... But its still a definitely something to look forward to if u havent tried it yet and the drive thru staff are beyond the most nicest crew ever..

Jams favorite place at least 4-5 times a week. This location has a fast drive through. Service was friendly and we enjoyed our conversation with the barista. She stated that self confidence is important.-tag

I’ve been to a lot of Starbucks in the country & this one is consistently easily 5 top service. It’s not even the closest one to me & will drive the extra few minutes because the service is always better - huge shout out to Hayden for being especially great!

During the pandemic, this has become an almost daily stop. Rarely do we come here and have not had to wait 10+ minutes in the drive through line. That speaks volume about either their quality, or our habits! My personal favorite is the fresh mozzarella tomato and basil pesto Panini, the flavors are simple, fresh and absolutely delicious! Would be a 5 start review if this stop didnt always take such a large chunk of time.

A few weeks ago I found myself in line, (its pretty long usually) & after I ordered my drink I realized that I forgot my purse, no money! I was trapped in line too (the drive thru). So when I got to the window I told her I had forgot my bag & I apologized for their trouble, I was going home to get $. The cashier gave me the coffee! I havent seen that type of kindness in a while. It was so nice. So the next time I went to Starbucks I paid it forward. I paid for coffee for the person behind me & gave a large tip too! Good job Starbucks!!!

My favorite Starbucks! Have been coming here for years and the staff is always warm and welcoming! If you are in a hurry I would suggest to do a pick up order because this store does get very busy! The drive thru is also very busy during the business week!

The staffs are very kind and friendly, when I asked them for a little extra whip cream, they gave me so much and also added more caramel for me too, they open late until 12am so I can buy my drink and enjoy it whenever Id like. Finally, I can get the limited red cup for whole holiday. I love itttt so bad

Gave me milk instead of half and half for my tea. I don’t understand what was so hard for them to get it right? It’s honestly disgusting drinking 2% in an earl grey tea. Just some food for thought.

The service at this Starbucks is great. Ive always dealt with very friendly people both at the drive through order and at the cashier table. The drinks have been up-to-par too, and they are more than happy to customize drinks for you as needed.Only thing to keep in mind is on weekends around 10 am, and on weekdays around 7, there is going to be a line of cars most likely at the drive through- so plan ahead if you want your coffee. :)

Why do you have mobile ordering as an option if you are going to force people to drive thru? That makes absolutely no sense and makes people late... don’t have it as an option if it’s not available.

Review №52

Everyone there was friendly and courteous. The store was clean and well lit. Its always busy there, especially during lunch time. They use corporate approved contemporary music in order to keep the ambiance as chill and pleasant as possible.Not sure about the process of making their coffee, but would love to see it on their website, so we could tag team the coffee making at home at a fraction of the cost.

Changed their hours and didn’t let anyone know. They don’t open till 5:30 now (we’ll they’re supposed to) bit the snobby girl that opens likes to wait till 2 minutes after and looks like she doesn’t care about her job or anyone else’s.

Great customer service, courtesy water cups, helpful, patient and always attentive. Never a long line, but it is a popular Starbucks because many always present working or studying. Love this Starbucks and wish they could have longer eve hours, especially on weekends.

I WASNT AT STARBUCKS, GOOGLE. I WAS AT THE POTBELLY SANDWICH SHOP. THE POTBELLY SANDWICH SHOP WAS GOOD, BUT I GOT HOT PEPPERS ON MY SANDWICH AND THEY WERE EXTREMELY SPICY, SO I HAD TO DRINK A BUNCH OF MILK. EVEN AFTER THAT MY MOUTH STILL HURTS.THE STARBUCKS NEXTDOOR SEEMED OK THOUGH, SO THREE STARS.

Review №63

Have know idea why I came here, they should call it Seattle-based Milk House instead of coffeehouse, they never got it right as you get more milk in every order I had than a coffee taste. Regarding cold/ iced drinks 98% of the drink is ice as you can finish it with one sip.

Review №64

New workers, make it hard to get in and out. The drinkers dont taste the same. Nasty nasty yuk yuk. I ordered a ice Coco caramel on memorial I paid 5.35 for 1/2 way filled drink. WTH!!!! This place is getting very bad at service and drinks. Im so glad I do not tip at all.

It’s Starbucks. The coffee is very inconsistent, sometimes decent, but usually not very good. Never good, and occasionally not drinkable. I don’t understand why it stays open.

Review №68

Extremely upset with the way I was treated tonight. Drove 45 minutes all the way to Tempe just to be told their hours have changed. The store normally closes at 11:30 p.m., I got there at 11:09 p.m. . The girl tells me they bow close at 11:00pm and when I explained their website still says 11:30 and that I drove 45 minutes to get there she was extremely rude. Used to love going there when the old crew was working. Will not visit nor recommend this Starbucks to anyone. The least they could have done was be polite about it.

Review №69

Closer to my house so I come often. Drip coffee trends to be room temp so I get the pour over. It seems to be busier than I remember, even it being summer. Unless cause the ASU library closes all early. Which is why I am here. The employees are nice some are blah but always chill. Never got any rudeness which is why I come back.

Review №72

I purchase coffee from this store on my way to work on a regular basis. The customer service is good, but they consistently dont fill your cup all the way. Ive had to take my drink back on numerous occasions to get the amount that I paid for. For a company that charges a premium price for their product, they need to be giving their customers the amount of product they pay for. Not sure if this is a sanctioned practice across Starbucks in general, but if you short x number of customers by x amount of product on a consistent basis, and do that across the enterprise, the overall profit margin increases. Im beginning to think this is what is going on since I consistently dont get the amount of coffee I pay for.

You guys are AMAZING!!! Id give you 10 stars if it were an option. Thank you for making the best frappuccino in the valley. Ive tried so many Starbucks and theyre always a let down when it covers top consistancy, flavor, etc.. Can you guys move to East Mesa or atleast teach them the proper way top shop their job?

Review №83

Took thirty minutes to get our two sandwiches because they lost our order after the employee made it. In reality, that employee was just taking her sweet time to organize the sandwiches and not making anything. Going her for drinks is fine but the staff is too incompetent for anything beyond a simple drink order.

Review №85

Great location great service and inconsistent drinks. When I say inconsistent it feels that there is a mix of experienced and novice baristas. Some days the Frappuccinos are great and icy other days they are wet and runny as if not enough ice was used. Some days lattes taste burnt other days they are smooth and delicious. This location would be 5 star if they’re drinks were consistent.

I loved the setup of this starbucks and they had a really cute pumpkin banner that had little facts about the baristas with their names and pictures. It is a small starbucks but feels big, the staff was very nice and even double checked our order when they saw that one of the drinks had a substitute for milk and the other didnt.
