oh, this place runs so hot and cold! (no drink pun intended) Some days, they are absolutely on top of their game: drink made perfectly and quickly, friendly staff, great atmosphere, all that good stuff. But on other days, the place devolves into utter chaos: wrong drink, surly staff, dirty lobby, long lines. Seriously. The contrast is SO stark that I've tried to figure out if it's a staff thing, or a time of day thing, or a what I'm ordering thing... I can't pinpoint it. So I take my chances with the Coffee Roulette. Also of note: if you're swinging through for a coffee during rush hour, heading into downtown... may the Force be with you, because getting out of that parking lot is enough to make you need an extra shot in your drink.

I was here to have coffee and conference call for team meeting. They have free WIFI for AT&T customers with Smartphone which is big plus. They have external seating which I used for my conference call. There are some traffic noise but that is not Starbucks problem. Conveniently located near in the intersection of highway 2 and 20.

I've been frequenting this location for the past couple of years -- not just because it's the closest to my house, but because the service is fast and accurate and super-friendly. My husband and I know many of the baristas by name, and they know ours. (They'd even know our favorite drinks if we didn't mix it up on them so often.) The atmosphere in this location is cozy, but not crowded. It doesn't have the hectic or sterile feeling of some of the larger stores. I only wish they had a couple more "comfy chairs" and more parking -- there's nothing to be done about the latter, though, since they're located next to a popular cell-phone store.

Is it just me or is Starbucks loosing that special something? The coffee is still great, the staff is still friendly, but they seem to be sliding into that hard to get out of state of 'stability'. Starbucks used to have an edginess about them that seems to be dulling. Maybe I'm just getting accustomed to the SB-style, but 'mundane' is creeping into the picture.

In my experience, this is the least consistent Starbucks in the area. Not unique to this Starbucks, I've found that if I go into the store then my drinks are generally right-on. However, the drive-thru is a whole different story. It's more like 50/50 at this Starbucks. They simply do not double check the modifications or they DO double check but decide to hand the drink off anyways. It's frustrating.
