Starbucks

Efficient service at this Starbucks, free wifi for customers, a lot of electric plugs, clean bathrooms with a changing table for babies, etc.

It’s a standard Starbucks in terms of the service and products. They sell the NYC specific mugs, which is pretty cool. My coffee was fine.
Because of its proximity to Times Square and the Theater District, the crowd here is… interesting. Not a place to do work. Seating is also quite limited, so don’t always expect a place to rest your legs.

I went to this location 2 times during my visit to NYC. The staff was friendly and professional and the store was clean. I was able to recharge my phone using one of their charging stations which is a plus. Its just far enough to be off the beaten path of the square. A nice location to have a drink and relax for a minute.

This is generally my go-​to Starbucks when I am in the city. Always consistent service and always clean.

I don’t know why I had to wait 10 minutes for coffee cream while the guy cleaned the cream station. Bad attitudes.

Starbucks, you’ve got to be kidding.
I went there on Friday 7÷24÷15 at about 9 PM. The chairs were up and a yellow cone was placed in front of the door on the inside, to make it look like they were closed. I double-​checked the store hours sigh. It said that they were supposed to be open till10. I gingerly opened the door, stepped around the yellow cone; noted one guy seated amidst all the subbed floors and upturned tables, noted the staffers moving pastries back to the storage area, and asked a staff member (team member?) who eventually (not quickly) came to the counter to meet me «Are you closing early tonight?» He said «No, we close at 10.» Meanwhile, another customer who walked in behind me blurted out «You mean at 10 you lock the doors and leave.» The Starbucks guy didn’t answer.
This is not the first time I found Starbucks closing shift employees trying to discourage customers from coming in during the final hour of business. Actually, it seems to be an epidemic among the NY area stores (they seem friendlier outside NY). But this was the worst. Check the photos i posted. thew really worked hard to crete among bypasses the impression that they were closed: at 9 PM, one hour before closing.
I don’t know if this is on the employees, on the store manager, a regional manager or all of the above. But I will be communicating this to the Starbucks HQ in Seattle because this hatred-​for-​cnstoemnrs seems very inconsistent with the brand Starbucks seeks to maintain. If they want to stat in the NY market, they need to get serious about story operations and start firing some people.

Never enough seating here. And service is hit or miss. But you’ll get what you expect from Starbucks coffee.

Standard NYC Starbucks. Nice staff & decently clean, however the wifi is agonizingly slow.

The Worldwide Plaza Starbucks has the friendliest staff of all the Hell’s Kitchen Starbucks locations. And there sure are a lot of them.
Wi-Fi’s solid, and the coffee is your typical Starbucks. There’s enough seating for a rugby team, which explains why there’s always folks here with laptops (including me).

I came in here for some hot tea on a cold and rainy afternoon. I typically never go to Starbucks, but I had a gift card and needed a warm seat. Anyway, I wanted decaf tea, but they were out! It’s pretty surprising that a busy Starbucks in Times Square would be out of 4 different types of tea. At least the barista was really nice about it and offered me the tea with the least amount of caffeine.

Worst wifi ever and the entire Starbucks has 2 visible outlets. Not a place to work.

I mean its Starbucks – pretty consistent across the board in my opinion. Nothing spectacular, nothing horrible. It’s just… Starbucks. lol

We’ve been in New York for three days now from California and have had the most pleasant experiences everyone has been so nice and helpful. Until visiting this Starbucks location where this barista Daisy had a rude unpleasant attitude. I asked for a sleeve for my hot latte she said it’s right there I told her the container we was empty she then said you have to go get it over there then. When I think of Starbucks I think of the comfort of home it’s a place I visit in an everyday basis but definitely WILL NOT come back to this one.

I waited in line forever and they got my order all wrong!
They messed up my egg sandwich and forgot my coffee.
:(

Super rude employee said her name was daisy. Was not wearing a name tag. Short fat Latin girl in her 20’s possibly 30s hard to tell long hair in a pony tail thu a hat. Asked for a sleeve to for the hot coffee because they were out. She responded with a very rude answer and smirked when I asked for her name to talk to a manager. Apparently there was no manager in duty which I doubt. I hope corporate sees this review and sends a secret shopper.

It’s starbucks. The coffee will never really taste any differently so if you like starbucks in terms of quality, you should be pleased. I’m not the biggest fan of starbucks, but I’m new to this area and every other coffee shop is too small to fit many people in it… I was looking to sit down with some coffee and do some work on my computer; starbucks it was.
The coffee was fine. Nothing special. It was really busy — to be expected at 8am — and they kept the line moving very quickly. bravo. The wifi sucks. So so so slow — although it did pick up a bit after an hour or so, why? No clue.
I will say, if you want a quiet or semi-​quiet place to work this is not it. Even after the crowd had pretty much left (which is not really the loud part) the baristas were all sorts of noisy. Singing and yelling amongst each other — I’m really glad you’re enjoying your job, I am. But sucks for me. That’s probably my only complaint… other than it’s a starbucks and there are a few really great coffee shops just around the corner that serve coffee eons better quality than starbucks. They don’t however offer much seating space so if you want coffee and a place to sit, this is your spot — just expect the atmosphere to be very rambunctious.

It’s shame the place is run like this. Any Given time places Is disgusting. The freezer where sandwiches and coffee cakes are all disgusting. The bathroom are gross. Counters are never playing. The manager of the places morbidly obese he’s always looks He needs a good shower.
It’s hard to believe somebody can get away with running up and establishment like this! Clearly no district managers ever stop by.

Although I enjoy a good espresso, I love my morning fix from SB «Grand, 5 shot, skim, no wipe, white mocha»
Great staff & love the world plaza setting outside
But if you have a complicated order like mine make sure they get it right

Average Starbucks quality food and drink. Girl forgot to give me my cake pop I ordered, so I asked for it again. No biggie. Wish there was more seating. It always seems to be full of people.

I can order my usual chai tea latte. Staff is friendly. But for such a large location, they do not have enough seats. That should be reconsidered.
