Starbucks

I’ve been coming here for two years, most of the employees seem like permanent faces which is always nice. Most of them learn your name and order and it’s a quick in and out situation if there’s not a line. The only negative is there’s not a lot of seating and it’s a fairly small metered lot (+very unlikely to get street parking on N park ave!) that can make parking a nightmare. p. s. try the clover reserves! I hated coffee until I tried them!)

If you know Rockville Centre– you know that it’s demeanor is that of a modern upscale (rich n’ spoiled) urbane-​suburban mini city.
People are pushy in this town. Parking is impossible. The town is over run with cackling selfie-​taking teenagers. Lots of honking horns and scary traffic filtering off Sunrise Highway.
The staff here is always a *mixed bag*. The newer employees can be nice. Some of the older ones can have that sassy «I can’t believe my rich parents are making me work here» attitude. No employees last here more than 6 months to a year. Why? Well there is a back entrance that feeds out to the parking lot. There is a ²⁴⁄₇ parade of the above mentioned LOUD screaming selfie obsessed teenagers going to and from there– constantly. It’s a big hang-​out. There are not enough seats/​tables at this location. (Are you listening corporate heads ?)
They remodeled this store a few years ago– and viola; LESS SEATS/​TABLES THAN BEFORE!
The clientele in this town is demanding & fussy. I have witnessed this myself when I’m in line there. In general– the store is TOO SMALL for a town of this size and with the HEAVY ANNOYING TEENAGE FOOT TRAFFIC through the doors day and night. The managers must be pulling their hair out over this one – especially when people are always quitting on them.
If you want a nice relaxing Starbucks experience– please go to the beautiful Long Beach location — it’s gigantic and always seats available — even on a Saturday /​Sunday afternoon.

This is a nice coffee shop in Rockville Centre. It is very clean, good service and free Wi-​Fi. However, there is a lack of parking.

I stopped at this Starbucks yesterday morning to grab some coffee and a sandwich. The woman who took my order was extremely friendly and pleasant. However, after receiving my coffee and going to put sugar and cream in it I found that there was no more half and half. When I asked the girl making drinks (Crystal) if I could have some more she simply stated «no, we don’t have any» without looking. I ended up using whole milk and sat down to eat my sandwich. 10 minutes later when I got up to leave I walked past the sugar/​milk area and noticed a brand new container of half and half sitting there. This is probably the worst service I have ever had at a Starbucks, if she did not have it at that moment she could have told me to wait or she could’ve checked with a coworker, I wouldn’t have minded. However lying about not having it and then having the nerve to put it out while I’m sitting 5 feet away is not only rude but completely unacceptable for someone working in a customer service position. Luckily I don’t live in this area and I will not have to visit this location again, but if you do live here you might want to think about going to the Panera or Dunkin Donuts down the street.

Updating my review. In the earlier one I was rating their coffee, but this particular site does not have many tables to sit. They have nice comfortable soft chairs to lounge in the front, but few tables along their long narrow store. Very attentive staff. Just an unfortunate layout. Coffee and service is excellent.

This is, hands down, the best Starbucks ever. I’ve never had a bad experience and over the last few years, this has become my go to Starbucks. The baristas are always friendly, helpful and engaging with the customers. They aren’t just nice, they also never mess up a drink. A barista by the name of Ann made me the most bomb caramel frappucino and I didn’t even have to ask for extra caramel or anything. I recently had my first PSL of the season and it was on point. Their retail shelves are always fully and neatly stocked as well as the pastry case and refrigerated section. They always have what I want and never have to worry about my drink coming out wrong. They recently underwent a renovation and it looks like a million bucks. RVC Starbucks, I love you.

This is the first time I’ve ever given 3 stars to a Starbucks. I’ve broken my 4 – 5 star pattern!
The reason I deducted a star from my usual review is that their bathrooms leave something to be desired — and that would be a good cleaning. Each time I’ve come to this location, I’ve made a quick trip to the little boy’s room, and it’s always… meh. I know now that I can’t use the bathroom before ordering because I’ll be afraid to touch my coffee cup, and I can’t use the bathroom afterwards because I don’t want that to be the last image I see upon leaving the store.
Their staff here is absolutely wonderful and they are always good for a decent amount of laughs; I simply wish they would take some time out of their day to get those bathrooms up to par.

I stop in to this Starbucks at least 3xs a week to get my coffee fix before work.
The staff is always quick, attentive, and very pleasant. Usually I’ll have an order for 4 or more items for myself and my coworkers. I’m always in and out in under 5 minutes– a BIG plus.
Drinks are always delicious and just what I need.

just get a coffee from this store. It was raining outside.

I enjoyed having lunch here with my spouse. It wasn’t too crowded at the time. The staff were very friendly. Plus, I was able to find an outlet for my computer. Great atmosphere!

Friendly staff and no wait!

I’ve been to this Starbucks on numerous occasions. Sometimes to hang out with friends and grab some coffee, sometimes to grab a quick cup if I was leaving on a train from Rockville Centre station and I used to come with my little brother. I liked the place a lot more a few years ago, my recent experiences haven’t been great. The store is clean, it has a modern atmosphere to it, the baristas are friendly or at least curteous but some of the baristas I’ve recently dealt with just don’t know how to make a drink. It does make me afraid to come back because I’m not sure if I’m going to get a good drink or a bad drink. It’s a generally hopping starbucks because it’s right in the middle of Rockville Centre’s bar and restaurant scene.

I’ve reviewed other Starbucks… so why not the one by my job?
There are a few Starbucks within a 5 minute drive from my office, this is by far the best. I typically am in an out in under 3 minutes when I order a handcrafted beverage. If I order more than 1 drink, up that to 5. That’s not a lot of time considering that I once waited 12 minutes (yes I clock watched) at a Starbucks in Westbury when the store was empty of customers.
The baristas are always smiling and engage the customers as well, which is a nice touch.

Fine, for a Starbucks. No complaints. Would probably do well with a Clover machine at this location. The closed-​off glassed-​in room in the back is pretty popular, and unique to this Starbucks. I never used it, but people do.

Staff are very Nice

So, standard Starbucks. 2 stars because they play the radio loudly behind the counter. It competes with the cd playing and they will not turn it off.

This place was the go to hang out place for me and my friends during high school. We would get some high-​calorie super-​sweet foam-​topped beverages, grab some of the plush furniture in the front by the floor to wall window, and chat til closing.
Nowadays whenever I pass this place I think «Meh. I’ve seen/​experienced better Starbucks.» It’s a long sliver of a place with a couple of furniture near the front, some tables on the side, and more tables in the plainer area in the back. There’s nothing special about it, the baristas are OK, and it can get really cramped in there.
As it had before in the past, it attracts a lot of tweens and teens. Ick. No. Moving along.

Its your average Starbucks with a private study room in the back and they always have a bouquet of fresh flowers when you walk in which is a nice touch.

Its your average Starbucks. Pricey drinks, weird yet relaxing music. Great place to Mac out when you need to get out the house for a bit.

It’s odd to see bad reviews of this Starbucks. Maybe I’m an old fart, but this is by far my favorite one. Staff is great. Can we get some cushions on that bench?
