At the bottom of the "Grapevine" 5 freeway in the outlet mall is a Starbucks among many other choices to stop. I like this spot over others for the clean bathrooms and a pick me up coffee for the rest of the roadtrip. I took a photo of the counter area because everyone knows how long other places take to get coffee. You usually see everyone waiting. Not this Starbucks! They get you in and out quick! Happy Roadtripping! read more

Starbucks - Counter in Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Arvin, California

Just a regular Starbucks and they're definitely busy all the time. They can take their time with your drink but they have a lot of orders. Fine prices. I wish they had more vegan options. They have almost no vegan food options. Inside, it did seem like you could hang out, but since the interior is packed outdoors does seem better. I think they had a table or two outside. read more

When you have to use the bathroom after driving through the grapevine, this is the place to stop at. Bathrooms are for customers only, so be prepared to purchase something. I planned on buying a drink or two and snacks for my little one anyway, so it was no problem for us. I received very friendly customer service during my stop here. The gentleman taking my order had a smile on his face the entire time. The ambiance is quite nice, with a modern decor and decent music playing. There were a few people working on their laptops when I visited here. read more

Review #536 2025-005 Drink Order: EMPEROR'S CLOUDS & MIST TEA aka "yun wu" or 雲霧 in Chinese (green tea cultivated at 3.5K & shrouded in ethereal clouds & mist) Trying to fix my numerical review order... replacing defunct Sub Club Italian Deli in Torrance that was removed. Not the best start for the new year, losing someone near & dear to me, so I traveled with my big brother to pay our respects, say farewell & wish her peace in her afterlife journey. I was getting stiff & groggy on the return trip, & B remembered a Starbucks just before we hit the Grapevine but didn't remember the exit. The app led us to Pieology & we see the Starbucks drive-thru signage; we parked & walked around (to stretch our achy back & legs) in the cold winds to the coffee shop. Brrr!! The coffee shop is attached to Pieology (east side) off the popular Wheeler Ridge rest stop. Since it's a weekday, not much foot traffic on a Tuesday late afternoon. Taking a quick restroom break before ordering; I noticed an unusual set-up & not sure if it's a good thing. There's 2 unisex restrooms with the sinks outside, which means the restroom handles are unsanitary because you're coming out with dirty hands touching the handle. Yuck! I used toilet paper to let myself out. Yes, the sink is right outside, but I've seen people walk out of restrooms with sinks on the inside (not here). The OCD in me doesn't accept this layout. I did like the sink station ingenuity of all-in-one soap, faucet, & hand dryer, though repairs might be challenging. I'm not a coffee drinker (can't stand the smell & taste); refer to Review #s: 16, 798). I had their Refreshers (meh) & Lemonades (moderately better), & tried a bagged tea because I needed some caffeine & something hot to warm my insides. The barista was friendly & helpful... I asked for a green or black tea, but don't understand their tea types so she brought the whole stand for me to select my flavor. Barely a minute & I got my tea, which is essentially adding hot water & throwing in a couple of bags, & waited for B's coffee order -- a latte of some sort. I forgot to ask them to fill it to the top & leave an inch to add some ice so I can actually drink it on the road. I didn't get to it -- yes, it's that hot -- until I was almost descending the Grapevine. It's not the same quality as my loose leaf teas, but for a bagged tea, this was pretty good. It has a tinge of bitter to the smoky, earthy taste with a subtle touch of sweetness in the finish. I'm thinking of searching for this in loose leaf form at my fav tea shops. The break was a quick for the restroom, & our tea & coffee order... 10-mins. & we were on the road. Thx Starbucks for the wake-me-up! Recommended: Emperor's Clouds & Mist Tea. read more

Wow! This place has changed! A remodel and it's so fancy! The bathroom sinks have some high tech system with soap, water and dryer in the same bar about the actual sink! Big, bright space with this gorgeous mural! Staff very welcoming, as before! read more

Whew! This is a busy Starbucks. I decided to try for East side of the 5 instead of the Starbucks on the west side by the TA rest area, thinking maybe this one would be less busy. It was not. Lol. While I stood in the lengthy line for the one bathroom that was working, I placed my one drink order on the mobile app and the app said it would be ready in about 20 min. Yup...20 min. To my surprise it was actually ready in 15 minutes. It was kind of cool to see the handwashing station outside of the bathroom and it's nice that it all was hands free. read more

Worst Starbucks experience ever! I waited 31 minutes for a short Latte and a Pike. Had I known I wouldn't have stopped here at this Starbucks. There was other customers waiting for their drinks just as long who were also very unhappy as well. Who wouldn't be. I won't come back here that's for sure. read more

Starbucks - I kid you not, I waited 31 minutes for this short latte and a Pike. Worst Starbucks experience ever! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Arvin, California

This Starbucks is extremely well run. The baristas were very efficient and the drinks tasted AMAZING. It is getting extremely common to receive a rushed drink these days but these baristas were on it. Extremely well trained staff, so kudos to the staff on 3/25/26 @7am. I am extremely satisfied and look forward to stopping again! read more

Really easy to mobile order ahead of time for this location and go in to pick it up as it can get quite busy. Although they are a large location with plenty of seating and parking in the large lot, it can still get incredibly crowded. The baristas are very welcoming and kind and they definitely keep this location clean and organized. My drink and food orders have always been accurate from here as well. Can't really ask for more! read more

If you're not ready to serve that number of people, why do you take orders? We've been waiting for 40 minutes for our order. Just for coffee!! Service is terrible and inattentive, they don't give you straws or cup holders unless you ask for it. They ignored us for 3 times and then silently gave 6 straws. Chocolate brownie was terrible and completely not edible, too oily Looks like they don't care if people come back here. read more

My quick mobile order pickup at Starbucks was fantastic thanks to Christian! He was efficient, accurate, and such a delight - his energy and kindness were truly appreciated. He greeted me warmly and went above and beyond to make sure my drink was exactly what I wanted. Starbucks was well decorated and clean. Good location next to food options and gas station. read more

Starbucks - Special messages left on my Starbucks drink, love it! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Arvin, California

This place is ridiculous. First a customer told my Wife to go to a different star bucks because she has been waiting a long time. Then an employee announced a wait time between 30-45 minutes? That is down right ridiculous. We left! read more

Great job. Thank you taking our large bus. They are so sweet. The drinks were good. Very clean . Staff was great.

Driving to the Bay, stopped here, hit the drive thru and everyone was super nice, food and coffee was good, I think people just love complaining read more

This visit was a road trip bathroom and coffee stop off. Justin at the register was super sweet! Really made a difference, as many employees these days just phone it in. The coffee was good too. I would stop by again if I was in the area. Thanks Justin!!! read more

Literally the worlds slowest Starbucks in the entire world. They cater to the drive through and ignore the people who go in.

I'm not sure what's worse about this Starbucks the speed of the service or the filth in the dining room and restroom. The place is absolutely disgusting. The urinal even comes with snacks. It's hard to enjoy the food in a restaurant that is so filthy. read more

Food took very long time but they were disorganized. There were many people but when coffee is our foe 10 mins and egg bytes have 20 doos items before them they need to do better read more

Got there around 3 Ordered 4 drinks and 2 cake pops. Waited a while and received 2 drinks. And we waited again for the other 2 drinks by this time the store was getting empty. I let the guy there now I was waiting on 2 more drinks and he kind of brushed me off and said they'd be out shortly. I took my son to use the restroom and came back out they had just gotten started on them. Mind you this is 30 minutes after receiving the initial drinks. The guy made the drinks and left them on their counter where they prep everything and completely walked away. Another guy had to come out and give us our drinks. Terrible service terrible workmanship bathroom was dirty had no seat liners or toilet paper wish I can give no stars do yourself a favor and find a different location read more

Starbucks - Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Arvin, California

This place is unorganized. I've been here 4th times and today is the farthest wait that I had to wait for my 3 drinks. 1 hr is not acceptable to take this long since it's a mobile order. The manager needs to do something about this or the corporate. A lot of customers been waiting longer than expected. Not to happy about read more

Bring your patience. Came the Sunday after Thanksgiving and of course they are busy. Mobile orders take 20+ minutes and if you order in person the line is out the door. When we came only 5 people were working to manage mobile orders, walk-ins and a drive through. Seems understaffed for the highest travel day of the year. However, I will say the staff were busting their chops to pump things out. I hope the people receive a holiday bonus as they are helping people travel safely. read more

Never updates the app when they are out of something, so i end up losing money on something else i order because it's not the same price??

A nice pit stop on the other side of the Grapevine. They recently remodeled and extended the bar the full length of the lobby and took away places to sit except for outside. Probably a good idea to keep people from hanging out there and expanding the worker's space. Good bathrooms and hopefully it stays in good condition as time goes on. 4+ stars! read more

The restrooms were dirty, the tables were dirty. To top it off they messed up my order and I ask for them to remake it and they were all upset. Lol read more

Starbucks - Very nice - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Arvin, California

Out of the two starbucks in the Tejon area, this one is our favorite because it's usually less crowded. The interior is generally clean, but not spotless and sometimes the trash is overflowing. But it isn't usually gross or anything that would make me not come here. It's a good place to stop to grab your morning caffeine and a restroom stop before continuing on your way. Double check your drink before leaving, about 50% of the time our drinks are not made well or are wrong. read more

Absolutely the worst customer service and Starbucks I've ever been to. Rude af staff member was at the drive-through with glasses.. asked for a water cup and I was willing to pay for it . HE RUFUSES, pos I'm scared to drink my order. DEFINITELY SEEMS LIKE THE TYPE TO SPIT IN DRINKS! BE AWARE read more

this was the worst starbucks i've ever been to.

Starbucks - a large group of people in a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Arvin, California

Stopped in quickly and the place was full of people. I thought it was going to be a chaotic nightmare. I ran to the restroom to wash my hands first and by the time I came out, the place had cleared out. I walked up to the counter and placed my order. Wait time was short- Perhaps 3-4 other drinks were made ahead of mine until my order was called. My drink was delivered by a nice smiling barista. It looked and tasted great. I grabbed some napkins and went on my way. read more

Let me talk positives, they have tables and chairs to do some quick work...code less restrooms ! When I was there at 945am on a Monday, the restaurant was clean. I'm not sure this is really a negative...the entire group of baristas was on the phones talking to friends recounting the previous evenings fun...which is fine, but as a customer you better believe you and your order are like 5th level of priority...at least that's how it felt. I got my order pretty quickly...so while the barista didn't look at me or bother to say hello or anything resembling a curtesy, at least my time wasn't wasted ! read more

Their were slow on the order their was this one girl who jst kept giving attitude like for example "she had said whats the name for the order" and we replied unknowingly she wasnt talking to us but then she gave us a a dirty look, Next we got our drinks made wrong and addressed the problem to her and instead of saying she'll fix it she says i know in a rude way then my mother says in the same tone you dont know cause you would have gave us the right drinks, then she takes our drinks back instead of making us a completely new drink which was already given to us but then a kinder person came out gave us the drinks that were make incorrectly and correctly. read more

I always order my drinks 15-20 mins ahead but this Starbucks is too busy for their own good. Keep your cool and be patience, matter of time before someone loses their cool with the staff. Ended up waiting 40 mins for my drink. read more

Stopped by Starbucks to use the restroom and get some coffee for the road. I ordered inside. ***The good: - Great location, especially if leaving LA to go up North on I-5. - Drink tasted as expected. - Male staff who took my order was polite and courteous. ***The bad: - Ladies' room was not clean---middle stall: before even using it, I wiped the seat and flushed to get an empty and fresh bowl (there was tp in there) but the flush handle was not working well, so I went to use the stall closest to the sink area. There was pee on the floor in that stall, an overflowed broken trash can, and one feminine product wrapped in a ball was laying on the floor by the sink. Also, no seat cover left in any of those two stalls. Only one sink, and one hand dryer. - I ordered two drinks. One was a refresher (for my companion) and one a hot white chocolate mocha (mine). The refresher only took a few minutes. The hot drink, about 15. Now that I have read several reviews about the place, I know that a long wait time has been an recurring issue. However, at the time I ordered earlier today, I had no idea that the wait time was uncharacteristically long at that Starbucks. After about 7-8 minutes, (when I started to notice that people after me were getting their drinks), I gently checked with one of the baristas who told me that my drink was "coming." He was a male barista who was going back and forth. A female barista was making the drinks for the inside. I waited some more, and when it was almost 15 minutes, (as people who had ordered way after me continued to get their drinks), I checked again just to make sure they had not missed my drink by accident. This time, the male barista asked for my name and drink I had ordered, he looked for the ticket/order or something, talked to the female barista/drink maker who responded something I could not hear, but the guy made my drink right away and gave it to me. No explanation and no apology. A small explanation would have been welcome (ex: the order receipt fell on the floor/got mixed with the old ones by accident/we placed your drink in the drive through area...?).... if not, a "sorry for the wait," at least, would have been good customer service. I don't think I will go back to this place. read more
