Unfortunately we di not have a good experience with Starbuck Upholsterers. In fact we were not able to go through with the upholstery work we wanted as they d not respond to correspondence in more than a perfunctory and inconclusive way. Two months after our initial request for a quotation was decided to go with another local company who seem more enthu and responsive. read more

We decided to go for a local shutter supplier and thought Starbuck looked like a good option. Having looked on their website I approached Starbuck for a quote. Robert (who is one of the owners, I believe) contacted me soon after to find out what I needed and quoted for the work. We then organised an on-site appointment to discuss shutter options. All seemed fine at that point. However, Robert messaged me the evening before that appointment to say he couldn't make it so we arranged a different date when Robert was available. Again, the evening before the second appointment Robert contacted me to inform me that he couldn't make that either. This happened a further 3 times (so 5 times in total!). Each appointment was scheduled for first thing in the morning so it was a little inconsiderate to cancel the day before. Each time Robert offered minimal explanation save that he alluded to the fact more important work had come up (i.e, work of a higher value). At one point, I had to call Robert to chase for his response to one appointment after he failed to respond to me. He said the appointment would only take 20 minutes... It is obvious that Starbuck is only interested in large commissions and doesn't think twice about cancelling prearranged appointments if something larger comes up! (worth also pointing out that I visited the Starbuck store one Saturday during Starbuck's extremely restricted opening hours. No one was there and it was closed. I understand from a lady that spoke to a member of staff of Starbuck that it was closed as the shop keeper was making deliveries.... clearly they also have staffing issues). A complete was of time dealing with Robert and Starbuck. read more

I bought some shutters for my living room and the staff at Starbuck was absolutely great, helpful and knowledgeable regarding what would be the best and most affordable solution for my house/budget. Robert was extremely competent as he gave me directions about the options available, and now I am really satisfied with my choice. He came and installed the shutters promptly and now my living room looks stunning!! Totally recommend them for any job . read more

This place has always amused me. Brockley doesn't have a Starbucks (thank God) but it does have Starbuck, its very own upholstery shop. I have actually used their services once, to cover an old rocking chair I bought on eBay, and they were really good - not cheap, but then upholstery rarely is. THey always have an eye-catching selection of furniture in the window, usually chez longues in modern, rich prints. THey also do shutters for windows, and have a selection of these in the windows too. I can't vouch for the quality of the shutters but they do look pretty good. Would recommend the upholstery though. read more
