My favorite Starbucks. I'm biased because it's down the street from me, but it's never done me wrong! I used to come every single day in high school, and they've only gotten my order wrong, maybe three times. Even for as busy as they get, the baristas are always in top of things. Although high school was quite a while ago, I still enjoy coming to this location. Now, when are they going to renovate like the other ones have in this area ??

Love Starbucks! Always quick when going through drive thru. Tried the mini fraps. A little pricey than I was expecting. Nice friendly staff.

This isn't my everyday Starbucks, but I come here often that they now know me by name, since my work is down the street. The baristas are so welcoming.

It's Starbucks, what can you say. Swanky place full of a mixture of college kids, business men and pompous women. Unfortunately the coffee is good enough to keep me coming back. Tip: everything tastes better with a shot or two of espresso. I'll deal with the terrible crowd every once and a while just to get my fix. Although, if the baristas get any more of a condescending tone, I might just have to make the drive to Crave every day.

Okay, so they renovated. Now they have The Most Uncomfortable Seating Ever. Plus, too many tables and chairs makes navigating the room impossible. Going to look for a new Starbucks. What a shame! All the renovation accomplished was making it less comfortable for the regulars. What's the point? Trying to attract the 20-somethings? Well, guess what? They're all at work. Want to keep (or get back) your regular customers? Bring back the lounge chairs and reduce the number of bar stools.

It is not the best coffee in town, but it sure is consistent. I love the fact that I can walk into any Starbucks in the country and get something that I enjoy. My drink of choice is a tall vanilla bean frappuccino with a shot of espresso, or a grande with two shots if I want a boost. Give it a shot, it is delicious! Anyway, I like this location, check it out!

This is the friendliest Starbucks ever! They had free samples of their peppermint mocha and they were delish. They carried on a conversation with you and didn't just write your name on a cup and forget but actually remembered my name. If I lived on this side of Tucson I would be here daily!

I have been to many Starbucks all over the country and Myra is the friendliest barista I have ever seen. She clearly enjoys her job and brings A positive energy that fills the store. She also is very committed to making consistent drinks for the customer to. The staff as a whole is excellent. This is my favorite Starbucks in Tucson. Ample indoor outdoor seating.

Dear Starbucks , As usual you draw me in on a near daily basis! Never disappointed by my regular cinnamon dolce latte. Always tempted to buy the newest folk rock indie cd , grabbing Ethos bottled water I don't need, chocolate Graham crackers , granola bars , protein platters ... Get me out of here!!!!!! The music piped in must have subliminal messages to influence you to Consume , buy, ....ok, drive through from now on. Oh Starbucks .... Till we meet again! Tomorrow you say? Ok.. See you then!

This is a pretty standard Starbucks, which makes it pretty good in my opinion! The staff is friendly and courteous, and they make the drinks pretty well. We had one issue once where they rang us up wrong, and they gave us a voucher for a free drink (any size), which was super nice because it was a small error on their part. They try to do the very best they can for the customers, and I appreciate that. This location is super convenient for me. It's on the side of the road that I'm always on when I'm going towards my house, so it's easy to pop in and out when I have to have my super sugary coffee craving quenched. Say that three times fast, dare ya! All in all, this is a good Starbucks, and I'll be returning a few times a week!

My favorite Starbucks in Tucson. I love the extended hours, location and layout with a choice of shaded or in the sun seating outdoors. They have always made my selected drinks correctly.

In the interest of full disclosure: I'm from Seattle, and Starbucks WAS my local place, so they really can do no wrong. This is my "home base" Starbuck's. It's like Cheers when I walk in, but without the bitter mailman. The line moves quickly and the baristas are consistent and learn your drink (and your name, apparently). One thing I love about this Starbucks is that they're always having charity drives- either for the Gospel Rescue Mission, the Syann Kindness Project, or a local animal shelter. They are always giving back LOCALLY, even though they're now a worldwide chain. Extra props for that.

There was a memo going around today to women at businesses saying "If Yvett R. happens to walk into your establishment today, be extremely rude. Extra points for creativeness". Wasn't there? (see my Best Buy review for earlier today) We'd been out practically all day and stopped by Starbucks before heading home. Now, I'm here all the time and I'd never seen this barista. I was in the mood for one of those Cap'n Crunch Crunchberry frappuccinos. Now, I know this has been around for years but I'm not daft and fully realize that not every barista will know what this is, since it's not a real menu item. So I don't order it that way. I just ask them for a Strawberries & Creme frappuccino with a shot of hazelnut and a shot of toffee (get two shots of each if you're ordering a Venti). I was ordering in that exact order when the barista looked like she'd been kicked in the gut and interrupted me. "YOU WANT HAZELNUT IN THE STRAWBERRY FRAP?", she asked. I said yes and also asked for a shot of toffee. Again, "MIXED IN WITH THE STRAWBERRIES & CREME?". I said yes and she stared at me for a while before shrugging and saying, "OKaaaayyyyy. . . ". What gives? I mean, it wasn't HER drink and isn't the customer always right? If I wanted the drink that way and I'm paying for it and I'm not asking her to taste it, what difference should it make to her? We were waiting for our drinks while my husband was making fun of how I'd been treated by ladies that day when the guy that makes the drinks called out for me. He read out my drink and asked, "Oh, you like the Cap'n Crunch drink?". A-ha! At least HE knew I wasn't crazy. Take THAT, judgmental drink lady. Yeah, I'm whining about today but I know and you know that I'll be back.

The drinks were good; the baristas friendly. This is the second time recently where a Starbucks employee addressed a customer by first name as they entered the business - that's impressive.

I love the location of the store and the staff is always friendly. Most Starbucks are always pretty much standard and the same, but the ambiance of this Starbucks is more inviting and customer service is also wonderful here!

Standard Starbucks with regards to the interior, albeit slightly larger than most since they have a corner location. Barristers have always been friendly towards me (perhaps because I am friendly to them? How novel!). Plenty of outdoor seating with ceiling water misters to beat the heat. Convenient location too, with plenty of parking & just steps away from Pier 1, Payless and a Gamestop.

Great staff and ultra lively atmosphere. Always crowded with nice people on the weekends. Plus, it's in the perfect spot so I always have a reason to stop in for my favorite beverage. My favorite coffee place in Tucson by far.
