I hope this place isn’t this way always. Everybody in here today Acts like they’re on medication. Two people in front of me, five people working and it took 10 mins. To get my sandwich and three more mins. To get my ice water.

This is one of the smallest Starbucks I’ve seen(other than mall locations), but its well laid out and they sure manage to put in a lot of seating as well as room to stand and wait. There’s large and small tables and a barstool area, as well as outdoor seats, so its good for a wide variety of people. studying, groups, chatting etc. I came on Sunday around 8pm and they had more food/bakery items in stock than most Starbucks do in the early afternoon. To my surprise, the barista even apologized about being out of so much stuff! The barista was super nice! He was very efficient and even chatted with me for a bit about the new menu items. The place was really clean(especially the milk/sugar area) and had a relaxed atmosphere. The seating was ¾ occupied and it was still quiet and mellow in there. Located in Hazard Center, there are lots of businesses, eateries and the movie theatre around, so I can see this place getting super busy during peak times. Parking was free and easy to find in the private lot.

When I go to every starbucks and I they ask me do, I want sweeter or honey. I say honey and they put the honey in it. But for some reason the starbucks in mission valley are to lazy to do it. They are getting paid. When a client ask me for something and they want exactly on point. I give my client what they want because it called customer service and customer always gets what they want. No matter in Sales & marketing, Contruction, life insurance, Dentist, fashion. Overall the professional environment is good. Just don’t throw them honey. If I say I want honey in my tea you put in there. Because you want me to do same if they asked me although I don’t want to do it. I hired to, They should understand that. The woman just through honey packets instead of just putting them. Not professional. I would never done if was her if was working starbucks.

Probably the coldest A/C in San Diego which is nice during these HOT Summer days we’ve been having here in southern CA. I like to come here and enjoy the high speed internet service with Google and work on my laptop. I’ve giving this location 2 stars due to the long lines and the«we’ll be with you when we can» responses. Also one of the managers here with a shaved head who wears glasses always stairs at me and makes me feel uncomfortable. I don’t think he likes the fact that I’m a Starbucks Gold Card member, with FREE Refills on my iced beverages. Which I have enjoyed from time to time. Over-all it’s a nice location with decent parking with all the great Starbucks drinks. Enjoy!

One of the best Starbucks that I have ever been to. Customer service is on point, and the baristas will go out of their way to make sure you feel welcomed inside this inviting location. This is why I go to Starbucks over every other coffee houses out there. Case in point, I went in there today to use the restroom to wash my hands. The male restroom was full, so I went into the empty Ladies Restroom, which was a single service restroom that can be locked. I went in, came out, and a woman customer was waiting with a frown on her face. She yelled, «that’s woman’s restroom, you know, you should be respectful of that!» I thought that she was probably having a bad Monday, and so I apologized and said, «sorry». Everyone in the store overheard our interaction, including the barista, a taller gentleman with dark hair, slim build. He said, «no worries, you’re good.» And when I proceeded to put in my order at the counter, he comped the frappuccinno for me. I was pleasantly surprised. I really felt like he cared about me having a good experience, and did not want that exchange to tint my experience while at Starbucks. I felt like he and Starbucks truly cared. Of course, I called their corporate office to let them know that I will be a customer for life. Thank you to the barista for going above and beyond to provide a one of a kind experience that can only be associated with the Starbucks brand!

Ordered two items on the mobile app and I arrived there 10 – 15 max minutes later. They told me that because they made the frappucinos THIRTY minutes ago they melted and threw them away. Then they remake only one, yet my order clearly indicates I ordered both items at the same time and they said two items melted. 10 minutes later I ask for the other. Batista makes it, then messes up that order. Keep in mind, it was not a busy time. Go to the Starbucks on Mission to spare frustration and wasted time.

bad thing about this location is that they are always locking the doors 20 mins early.

I had Michelle this morning. She listened to me and suggested an alternative to me that was quite pleasing and much better than my anticipated purchase. What’s better than a barista that listens and delivers exceptional service? Five stars and two thumbs up!

I like the quality of the product served at this Starbucks. Not all are the same, even though it’s a chain. The staff here is nice, especially the early morning crew. The only one who was ever unpleasant was the ginger that looked like a golden doodle. He seemed a chip on his shoulder, but he served good coffee. Parking can be a passion during rush hours, but I do enjoy this Starbucks outside of that.

I decided to come a little more this week to see if anything changed or has improved. Sadly that is not the case, only one Barista has truly made an effort to get my simple order right. Rachel I appreciate your willingness to help. This week I have yet to see any super foods bistro boxes. As for the egg muffin, didn’t even ask because I found it easier to make my own and bring it to work then to stress about Starbucks having it or not. I truly hope things are not the same for their other patrons.

Decent Space. Decent Parking. Decent Location. I always wish that all Starbucks can have more tables and more outlets. But can’t fault them for not being clean and friendly!

Great location and always clean. The staff are friendly & the coffee is always ready to go. If you go in on the regular they will begin to call you by name. It’s like the TV show Cheers«Where everybody knows your name» One of the more solid Starbucks I’ve been to!

This location is great! Right on Friars Road and easy to pull into. You can even get wireless from sitting in your car outside, lol. Drink was hot and made fast. Service was kind and patient. I went at an off hour, average crowd.

I work around the corner and I’m always here to order drinks for my coworkers. The staff is very friendly here and they are pretty quick with getting the drinks out. I like how some of the workers know me on a first name basis, it just makes me feel more welcomed. Overall this place is usually busy since it’s in the hazard center of mission valley but they are efficient so it doesn’t feel like you’re waiting forever. If you’re in the area and want coffee, come here!

I live in downtown, but come to this specific Starbucks many times a week for studying. The staff is so kind and funny, they even remember my name and usual order! It’s bigger than the others that are in downtown. It’s so convenient since you can just go buy a book almost right next door at Barnes & Noble, then come back and read here, since it is usually not loud. Today I tried some new«La Boulange» treats, and they are pretty tasty! Warm up that Flourless Chocolate Cookie, and you’ll be in cookie heaven! I know many people don’t consider Starbucks a «real» coffee shop, but I’m not criticizing it by that, I am criticizing based on other Starbucks shops I’ve been to.

My favorite Starbucks in town. Without a doubt one of the only Starbucks that still knows and understand customer service… I read several reviews for this location and laughed that people would mark them down for another customer taking your drink. Umm use your ears and listen for your name. It’s not a baristas job to secure your beverage and if anything the employees at this location would remake one that was taken without hesitation. These employees will make whatever you ask without question and sometimes give a bit of feedback or suggestions for you to try. I have 5 Starbucks within 3 miles of my house easily on the way to this location and all have been 86’d from my list because of rude employees. Instead I drive well over 4 miles past all these others to go to a coffee house that still understands customer service is about the customer. They’ve even tried to make up for others bad service. I studied here for hours, met clients, being people for fun and sometimes just want to chillax. Yeah seating can be tough but duh it’s the best Starbucks! They remember drinks and always provide service with a smile. Love this location!

This Starbucks, in Hazard Center, is a very busy location. I came in to get a Grande iced Americano. Even though there was a a line, the employees kept the orders and line moving. They seemed to have a good system down. My coffee was good but a little on the bitter side. The service was good. The guy making the drinks was a character. He had humorous comments he would make when he would call out your beverage when it was ready.
