Starbucks

This Starbucks is the best in the area (in my opinion). They are fast, and always get my order right. The staff is personable and remember what many of their regulars order before they even say it. Always impressed by them. Many times I’ve stopped in here before work to grab a hot Chi tea latte with vanilla and two shots of espresso. They make it the best.

My wife and I always go to this Starbucks because it is a Reserve store. I am a big fan of trying out new coffees from different regions. Today they were a little slammed with the post Christmas traffic, but the line moved fast, and we were helped in a matter of minutes. My wife got the Caramel Apple spice, and I chose the Cameroon.
While I was waiting at the hand off i noticed that there was an Ethiopia Cuji reserve that i had missed. I have a soft spot for African/​Arabian coffee ever since Arabia Mocha Sanani. I asked it if was too late to change my order just as my beans were finished grinding. The barista said «Don’t worry about it! I will just give you both since I don’t want the other to go to waste.» I was blown away, (and later very caffeinated). The barista went above and beyond.

As my go-​to Starbucks, I typically use the drive-​thru twice a week for my special coffees. On average, I’m out of the drive thru in ten minutes. Today, I decided to go inside to see if I would be served any quicker. Boy, was I wrong!
I waited thirty minutes for sandwiches that had been forgotten about. From someone who currently works in retail, and has worked in fine dining, I understand miscommunication and accidents, but the fact is I had two other customers that walked in ten minutes after me get their sandwiches. You did not even have bags ready with my name prepared. Needless to say, you then ran out of skinny mocha.
Clearly, you take precedent over your drive thru customers seeing as I usually am in and out. I beg of you, either feed this spot more payroll for two or three more baristas, or review your scheduling grids because that was the worst service I ever received at a Starbucks. As an alumni of the University of Florida, I’ve waited twenty minutes for my favorite beverages at the Hub and main library, and yet I never had poor service.
Get this place together, or you will suffer, and I will take my money to the Starbucks in the mall.

This location is a Great Starbucks! Close off the interstate. Easy to get to. Very clean, newly remodled. Employees are very friendly and drinks are always consistant. Which is a Very good thing:)

Starbucks can go grab me a venti go f¢¥ themselves. This is what’s wrong with America.

Incredibly friendly and helpful staff! I went to the drive through when I had a cold and the barista recommended a Refresh herbal tea and promised it would make me feel better. It did! Such a magical experience, especially for a Starbucks.

Slowww motion. How hard is it to make a decaf iced coffee? Ask these folk. Otherwise, is just 4 bucks.

Somewhat recently updated and remodeled with a Clover machine and revamped seating. Excellent location if you are heading up or down I-​75 or eating dinner in Gainesville. Consistent service and for some reason the drinks seem better here than the Archer location. Outdoor seating and a convenient drive they round off the Starbucks offerings at this location.
Whadda know… They also serve coffee drinks and pastries here. :)

Very busy and very slow… perhaps they were under staffed. Idk. All I know is our quick stop to Starbucks turned into a 30 minute affair. My drink was made right, which makes me a happy camper.

We had a very bad experience here. No parking. Several customers told them the women’s bath needed TP and it was never taken care if even after 30 min. We waited in line for over 30 min and they were out of the drinks we wanted to order. When the woman gave me my drink she slid it down the counter that was filled with spilt ice and I caught it before it fell off to the floor.
The drinks we did order were good as to be expected by Starbucks but we will not be back to this one.

This Starbucks seems pretty decent– they just remodeled the inside which always helps things out oh and they have a clover machine which is really cool!

Haha the guy here is hilarious!
I like this Starbucks specially after they remodeled

Pretty efficient for a mall Starbucks that’s also quite busy too. I’m a Starbucks addict so I’m usually not going to give Starbucks less than 4 stars unless it’s a bad experience. However I did find out recently that although their coffee is generally super sweet and sugary, their «unsweetened green tea» is still sweetened because the green tea powder they use has sugar in it.

This time of the year you can’t beat Starbucks peppermint mocha. I enjoy mine over ice with soy milk. They put whip cream on it if you chose, and new this year peppermint bark. I don’t get either the peppermint bark or the whip, but it’s so delicious!!!

Really odd parking area. It’s small and one way in/out…couldn’t get in because people were trying to drive out.

Really have had a consistently good experience at this Starbucks. They are friendly, speedy, and have free WIFI!

One of my best Starbucks experiences yet. Facilities were neat & clean. Staff were engaging, happy, efficient and even funny. Most Starbucks do a pretty good job meeting corporate standards but this location deserves two thumbs up.

Hey I was in Gainsville Floduh… free wifi. they could do my coffee order even though it was off menu. I could understand what they were saying. Their Google fiber is sick fast. On the bell curve of northern florida it was an epic win.

Yay! Starbucks with a drive thru! What more could you ask for!?!

It used to be great. Then they got a new manager. Her voice is grating, she’s passive-​aggressive, and you can tell by looking at her employees’ faces, makes people feel incredibly uncomfortable.
I ordered an Americano breve with soy milk. I got it, and it was lukewarm if that. I kindly told one of the employees my problem. The manager overheard – apparently she made it, and her pride was on the line! – and said to me, rather disrespectfully, «Oh, well you never said steamed milk.» Answering back, a little less kindly, I said, «I didn’t think I needed to state I wanted my hot coffee hot.»
Also, they lost a host of star employees. I gave them another chance after the Mrs. Monster experience and ordered an Americano breve again. The two girls behind the counter were talking (apparently the one was wasted last night, was a few hours late to work, and got, like, no sleep). My coffee tasted like campfire popcorn and burp. She made it again. Completely wrong (watery, zapped of flavor, and still popcorn-​belchy) and – SURPRISE! – not warm. She said she’d make it a third time, but I didn’t want to try another one of her cup-​o-​poisons. «I’ll just microwave it at home…» I said. «REALLY???» was her response. Yes. Really.
