Good size neighborhood Starbucks. Located in the corner of a neighborhood walmart in Avalon park. Never gets really crazy busy like the one at Waterford lakes. Great place to stop by and grab a frap or a latte while you're studying bc it's fairly quiet . Service is fast and friendly. If only this Starbucks had a drive thru and one of those new clover machines but I can't be too greedy =P

I visited this Starbucks location in Avalon with my friend and her newly born daughter to get them out of the house for a bit. This location is so spacious in comparison to some other Starbucks in the area, I absolutely love the open feel and ALL the windows letting sunlight in. I didn't feel like I was in a cave! The staff was friendly and chatted with my friend about her daughter. We sat at a table and enjoyed our beverages and bakery items (all correct as ordered). Random note: I very much like that Starbucks always seems to spell my name correctly - pet peeve is when anyone throws the "H" in there! Other note: I was supposed to receive 4 bonus stars for my coffee cake that haven't been added to my account yet!

They tend to get my order correct the first time (yay!). The facility is clean with plenty of seating options (outdoor and indoor, small 2-person cafe tables, 4-person tables, bar seating, plus couch/chairs, and bench). There are plenty of electrical outlets for those of us electronic users. For Business Folks or People Interviewing for a Job: If you need to conduct telephonic business or participate in teleconferences during the core business hours (Monday-Friday 9 AM to 2 PM), the music is pretty loud so you may want to take that call outside or in your car. Lastly, if your don't like you're beverage, have the barista to remake it for you. So taste your beverage before you leave.

A pretty typical Starbucks as far as atmosphere, beverages, etc. I try to keep my visits here to the earlier morning hours in attempt to avoid "the rush" (or a wait...depending on how you see it). It is hit or miss as to whether I'm first/next in line or have a wait (the longest was just under 15 min). Either way, the employees are generally friendly and I haven't received an incorrect order yet. The times that I've been here it has been fairly quite so it may be a good place to get work done or study -- but again, I usually go before 10 am. Only 3 stars because they don't have wifi (or maybe it wasn't turned on the few times I tried looking for it) and because there isn't a 3.5 star.

I can never complain about the friendliness of the staff but hot damn if this isn't the slowest Starbucks I've ever stepped foot into. I don't make a habit of walking in a store and leaving because the line is too long but it has happened here... twice. Everything about this location is typical otherwise, drinks are always good and the atmosphere is very "Starbucks" like.

Great relaxing atmosphere to meet up with friends. For a really refreshing, not too sweet drink, order the shaken passion iced tea 1/2 sweet. Really refreshing and delicious! I usually order with extra ice.

THIS IS THE SLOWEST EFFFING STARBUCKS IN THE COUNTRY!!! Maybe if they actually drank some of the coffee they were selling they might be able to pick up the pace. The employees have no personality and not a single word is spoken other than to utter the drink or name of the next weary patron. Fail!

I would have given this 5 stars if all the baristas are the same, all are just civil, not really friendly and some don't really know what they're doing but there is one barista there that makes up for everybody else. I don't know his name but it definitely isn't Ivan. He takes forever to make drinks because he continues to chat with people sitting by the bar every single time I was there even when they are very busy. All I know is that he has a beard and he's a regular barista there. He's not overly friendly but he's knowledgeable and makes up with great customer service. If there's something wrong with a drink, he makes a new one and upsizes it. One time, their system was so slow and was taking forever so he just gave the drink for free. We've had about 4 instances that he went out of his way to give awesome customer service. All others will just say no or have me figure it out myself until I prove them otherwise. One thing, though. If you don't like high school kids, don't go there between 2-5 because that's when HS kids hang out there.

I really like having a Starbucks in my neighborhood although I don't come as often as I would like. I came in today to just get away from the crazy holiday bustle. I was greeted warmly by the employees and ordered immediately. I had a caramel apple spiced latte. It was made perfectly. I decided to sit outside because many of the tables were full inside. Today was the best day to sit outside. Wonderful breeze with partly cloudy skies. My only complaint is regarding the lack of cleanliness in the outdoor area. The outdoor trash can looks like it hasn't been emptied for days as it was overflowing. One of the tables had dirty dishes that someone didn't bring back inside. The outdoors area definitely needs some TLC but other than that it was a good visit.

Granted this is the largest SB in a 10 mile radius it has to be the worst one the chain owns. The staff are rude and don't know how to do their simple job they are tasked with; making coffee. One older staff lady is the worst, not only rude but incapable of completing an order properly.

If you're trying to find a great place to study, have a meeting or just grab a delicious drink and run; give this Starbucks a shot. The employees are super nice and relatable. They always are looking to make the customers happy. The only thing that I have noticed that could improve is when they are really busy, there are only like three employees. That makes it kind of slow and you may have to wait a little bit to get your drink. But that occurs very seldom. So it's no where near a reason to snag a star. Just be aware. The environment is awesome! The drinks always come out great. It is definitely clean. Don't be afraid to ask the cashier for a recommendation; I do that every time and so far I have yet to not absolutely love their choice! Go and get addicted to caffeine!

One of the better Starbucks in the Orlando area. Always seems to be a service with a smile and willingness to please from the local baristas. The restaurant is always clean and spacious. Great place for meetings, studying and just to plain relax.

I've never really understood the hatred of Starbucks - but I also don't ever drink any of their special crazy drinks, so I never pay more than about $2 for a coffee or tea. If you hate Starbucks, you'll probably hate this place since, well - it's Starbucks. If you're a fan of Starbucks, or at least neutral to them - this is one of the better locations we've been to. The staff here is super friendly. They recognize us every time and some of them even have my wife's order memorized. If they mess it up, they fix it with no questions asked and no attitude given - but that's a very rare occurrence to begin with. The line can back up on occasion, but it's never because the baristas are slacking off. Seating here is plentiful and comfortable if you want to sit and enjoy your drinks. As mentioned in another review, this location used to close very early for a Starbucks - but that is no longer the case. Sunday through Thursdays, they close at 9pm and 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays.

I am really happy this location updated its hours. The folks running the show here have really stepped up the game. The enews letter is great for keeping me up to date on new stuff happening (like pumpkin spice arriving) and always has a nice hometown feel to it. I like that even though I am not a super regular here they recognize me enough to say "welcome back"! They also have done a great job at keeping their staff at the top of their game. Even during the morning rush the wait is never supper long. Add in the great seating quantity and this place is top notch. So much better now that the hours actually accommodate the commuter community that surrounds the store. Props to the location for sure!

Overall: Service with a smile. Every time I visit this Starbucks I am in and out in less than five minutes with a great drink. Everyone is really friendly for so early in the morning. This morning I ordered a soy latte and after the barista made it he encouraged me to try it before I leave and if I didn't like it he will remake it. Pretty cool deal. Luckily my latte was spot on!
