This branch of Starbucks is located inside Newcastle's large Tesco Extra store on Brunton Lane. It…read moreis in a decent location being in a large Tesco store and it is also the only Starbucks store within a 2.5 mile radius. This store inside is quite large and also nice considering it is in a Tesco Store, Starbucks have managed to add their own personal effects to it. Surprisingly, this isn't the first time I have been to a Starbucks in a supermarket having previously been to the Starbucks at Altrincham Sainsbury's, closer to my home. Despite being in a supermarket this isn't a franchise store and they accept Starbucks cards and rewards. Mobile ordering is possible here also. My drink was served quite quick, however the barista wasn't really friendly, just telling me they had no large straws for my drink, she handed me a spiling and overflowing drink without offering a napkin, despite it being wet and sticky. The layers of my Venti Iced Caramel Macchiato had began to merge, the overall drink quality was okay, average up to what I'm used to at Starbucks. I did however keep getting big lumps of caramel in my drink which wasn't too good. Overall, this is a nice Starbucks store but due to some issue with the drink quality and service, and the fact that going here will pressure you into going into Tesco, through going into their car park (taking more time etc) I sadly feel this store deserves just two stars.
