Very organized store with nice staff. Love spending some of my free mornings here.
Great coffee at a high price.
They recently stop taking online orders which is so discouraging. Drinks are not as good as before anymore. New workers seems not to pay so much attention with their customers. It takes the awhile before entertaining them. I hope they can improve their service.
I walked in, and one of the two workers were having a full blown conversation at the counter, so I waited fifteen minutes for them to stop chatting, which I wouldn't have minded uf their coworker hadn't been just standing around literally 3 feet away from the chatting women. Then the chatting woman behind the counter started making a drink, and the other one continued to do nothing. I got my drink but the efficiency could be improved.
Store is nice and clean, staff friendly, unfortunately the lattes are not very good. Perhaps barista in training?
Used the starbucks app at this location and it was hacked by someone at this location so be careful.
Why is this Starbucks cost more than all the other Starbucks in San Diego.
The worst Starbucks service we have ever received. We were just there about 5 minutes ago and we’re completely disturbed by the lack of customer service provided by the employees. The cashier openly stated, “I hate this job.” And the barista clearly had preferred to glare angrily at patrons as though smiling would be a difficult task. Not only is this a Starbucks store which deals with daily social interactions with its community but it is a Starbucks store that interacts daily with our military- which in most cases in my opinion deserve a level of respect or at the very least a smile. We will probably never go to this Starbucks store again, we only hope the employees receive proper coaching regarding quality customer care.
This place likes to charge extra for secret menu items that normally do not get charged at normal Starbucks. I paid almost $9 for a coffee here. This is ridiculous! And they made a little extra, and I asked the lady behind the counter, that since I paid almost $9 for the drink if I could have the little extra that they made. But she said “sorry, no,” as she drank it in front of me. December 9, 2017 (3:37 p.m.)
The worst Starbucks in the California. I wanna give it negative. When I ordered a double shot espresso over ice in a venti cup, the cashier didn’t say anything. But when I got my coffee, the barista told me they can not provide the espresso over ice in a venti cup, only in grande cup. So you charge me venti size and give me a grande size?And I asked ice in a venti cup, she told me need to charge me 50 cents for that. Do I need to pay 50 cents for a venti cup of water? I talked to the manger in the Starbucks, she said that was correct, they are licensed by Starbucks so they are special than the other Starbucks. The most important part is no sign shows they can not provide the normal espresso , they are licensed by Starbucks and they are different! Thanks for your different services to the persons who serve this country! Other than that, most of the time they don’t accept the Starbucks app and told you their system is down. And also waiting time is about 15minutes in morning.
Incorrect service hours posted. In the website is listed as 1900, in the store display has no specified closing hours Mon-Fri, but yet they are quick to close before 1900 as posted in the website.
