Starbucks

I don’t typically review chains because they’re usually consistent. This Starbucks stands out.
It feels a mite bit more refined feeling than the other big green and brown — farmer eating — coffee emitting — conglomerated bean houses in that it serves wine to make you forget the villages you’re taking advantage of. It’s always crowded but there’s almost always a seat available which is odd. They thought ahead. The only comparably nice Starbucks in Charlotte (where I’m more familiar) is the Dilworth one which is in a renovated old house.
This might sound negative because I’m cynical about Starbucks in general but to be fair, I *did* just drop $ 13 and stay for an hour here; and I liked it.
I recommend the Venti Brevé Latte with Nutmeg and Cinnamon swirled in on top.

Anthony is extremely rude, condescending, and slow. It is for this reason I will not be back in this Starbucks. There are plenty of other coffee shops around. This particular Starbucks should pay closer attention to it’s employees. Terrible hiring.

I LOVE THIS STARBUCKS! I’ve been going to this very starbucks since I can remember. You will get the best service here. The atmosphere is amazing. There could be a billion people in the coffee shop and you could still focus on your work or whatever you’re doing because of the atmosphere. The coffee always tastes amazing, and they hardly get orders wrong. If they do mess up on your order they quickly fix it. The nicest people work here. Great management as well!

If you go here just get americano. they do make good americano.

Went here to provide help on a resume edit for a date. The place was pretty packed when we arrived around 2 PM yesterday afternoon. Each time I turned around to see if the coffee line had decreased, there seemed to be a constant stream of people being added. I suppose it’s because this complex had lots of restaurants and the Regal theater nearby. There were mostly young adults here, but there were also the older crowd as well. People dissipated here and there so we were able to find a small table. There were also outdoor seats, but it was a tad chilly to be out there for an hour or two. But that did not deter some kids from throwing a ball around.
Parking wasn’t bad since this Starbucks was located in a huge food complex like I mentioned above. I think there were some other businesses as well, but it was predominately restaurants. Even so, parking was readily available (like always) since it can never be filled unless there were retail stores. The dead middle of this complex is basically huge and empty. Lol.

Amazing seating area for studying (better than any other I’ve frequented) with good power outlets and the best experienced staff. This starbucks is not one that cycles through new staff probably because management is good which is valuable because starbucks is an experience and they make sure of that. I wish Starbucks had better coffee and actually well sourced products like they claim but the atmosphere helps and is a good place to get some free wifi for a college kid!

Love this spot, one of the larger locations and full service too (read wine after 4pm!) Might be tough findings spot during peak hours but love the energy and vibe here. Service is great, lots of space in and out, great for meetings in the area.

Why would anyone leave a review for Starbucks? Aren’t they all the same? NO! I love this Starbucks! I go out of my way to come here. The interior is very well decorated and has a great modern feel to it. Comfortable seating. Great service & staff.

Very good service, Fast coffee. We only did the drive through but they were always spot on. They do get super busy, expect a 10 min wait in the AM.

One of the best starbucks in metro Atlanta area. Huge parking lot, spacious inside space, beautiful interior, secure location, and nice peoples.

I LOVE this Starbucks. I come here ever morning, and occasionally study here. I wouldn’t usually care about leaving a review for Starbucks, but I love the staff at this location. They are very friendly, courteous and well trained at making your drink.

Faaaaaaaancy! They have had a remodel since the last time i was here… holy moly. Another starbucks was able to make a caramel machiato into a frappachino that was SPOT ON so i asked (since they were slow) if they could give it a go. I was explaining it to the register lady, when the barista asked if she could just give it a whirl. I said give it you best! It was tasty… not what i was expecting, but it was pretty good. I love when the baristas are willing to experiment. A while ago they put out the secret menus and ive gone to a couple lcoations and asked for things, and they immediatley say no, but then there are awesome ones like this where they have a sense of adventure! Wohooo!

Staff is always friendly and cheerful. Love the reno that took place at this location. The rustic yet classy design is very nice but I thoroughly miss the bookshelf in the back with rows of books you can read while sipping on your favorite coffee drink. The major perk is this location has a large outside seating area AND they allowed my pup to chill with me at one of the outside seatings! That’s a huge plus since Atlanta lacks more restaurants and café patios that are pet friendly. It was nice that even the workers came out to show some love to my furbaby.
The only downside here or I guess any busy café is that the speed of wifi is horrible. I couldn’t get any work done because the internet kept lagging.

This is the fanciest Starbucks I’ve been in.
It’s huge — no drivethru. Friendly staff. The coffee tastes better because of this. We got a couple drinks and enjoyed them.
I did see wine and beer on the shelves.
It’s huge. A good assortment of seating. You may want to make this place your next hangout.

This is nicer, large Starbucks in an upscale neighborhood. In addition to normal Starbucks stuff (like your Venti half white mocha, half café vanilla, ez ice, with 2 shots pour appigato style-​over the top-​with whipped cream and caramel drizzle frappachino) they serve wine and small plates after 4pm, like my home town ‘bucks in Calabasas.
Lots of parking. Friendly staff. Plenty of seats — tables and chairs, easy chairs, communal farm tables, with some outside seating, too.

This is pretty much the coolest Starbucks ever. So much so that I actually reviewed a chain. They serve real food after 4pm, and alcohol after … at some point in the day. They have little fake candles all over and I love it so much! The shopping center is located in perfect Stepford-​suburbia so you forget that you live a half hour away from a necrotic city full of steel-​plated roads and excellent city drivers who only turn right from the furthest lane to the left.

My biggest complaint about this place is the restroom. Now, everyone that drinks coffee (or any liquid) knows that if you stay here long enough you will need to use the facilities.
This is Starbucks… they can afford to invest in a fan or air freshener (or gasp, both). Every time I go into the restroom I need to hold my breath and hope to everything holy that the toilet paper dispenser won’t fight me. The facilities are very dimly lit as well… which, I am not sure how I feel about that. All I’m saying is clean the restroom, make sure it’s stocked (I’ve had to tell them more than once that they were out of something), and install some sort of Febreeze room spray or something. Stat. I might even bring my own air freshener from here on out, along with a sign that says «I did not make that smell in the restroom just now.»
Oh, if you still want to visit this location bring a hoodie. It’s absolutely freezing in here, which I’m glad they don’t skimp on the A/​C… but I think they could stand to raise the temp a bit. Oh, and good thing I didn’t want a pastry today because the display as pretty barren. I guess my fat cells don’t need more company today after all.

OK, so first off a confession. I’m very happily addicted to Starbucks. I know its a massive chain and I should hate it with all my heart but I don’t. As a matter of fact I’m in love with it.
But as for this particular Starbucks, meh, is the best response I can come up with. The staff is attentive although not the friendliest Starbucks employees in the world. The coffee is universally good and the store well kept. But the people who patronize this place drive me up the wall. Maybe its the fact that I get my break when all the schools get off, or maybe its a fact that its surrounded by really expensive looking houses. But I have never seen so many people unable to decided on what tasty coffee beverage they want to consume. A problem which I’m sure does not effect my fellow Unilocalers.
Its really freaking simple you look at the menu before you get to the counter and choose what you want. But nope people get up to the counter and they can’t decide. Or worse they have to keep changing their elaborate orders. Then they see the pastries and then all hell breaks loose. Do you really need to know if the blueberry, cinnamon and banana bread muffins are sugar free? After you just ordered a cup full of sugar with some caffeine? The staff is ok at eventually taking the order of the person behind blockage of the line. However there have been a couple of times I’ve left after having stood in line for longer then 10 minutes due to one person!
In summary good staff, good coffee, good store and horrible customers.

Its a Starbucks. You know… huge chain. Look for local coffee shops and roasters when you can, but in Alpharetta… well. it aint easy to find that. Nice place… the family goes here when visiting and my mom in law is sincerely addicted.

One of the nicer Starbucks I have been too. Its nice and open, more of a coffee house feel, and its not packed with tables and chairs. Alot of space outside to sit as well and enjoy a nice day with some coffee.
Easy to spend a few hours in there and hang out and play on the computer or read a book, I might have to keep coming back.
