Terrible experience at this Starbucks. I placed my order through the app and 15 minutes later it said my order was ready. When I arrived at the drive-thru they hadn't even started on it. I asked if I should wait in line or park, but no one gave me any answer. Frustrated, I went inside, and the staff simply confirmed my name without giving me any indication of how long I'd be waiting. To make matters worse, the store was practically empty--there were two customers waiting inside and only two cars in the drive-thru. It's clear this location is poorly managed. The lack of communication and efficiency is unacceptable, and I definitely won't be returning. If you value your time, I recommend going elsewhere. read more

Nothing to complain about! The Barista was kind and willing to answer questions! Also brought out sandwiches out to us! I loved the Spinach Egg White Wrap! And always have to grab the Brown Sugar Oat Milk Espresso! My daughter of course needed the epic teen favorite, refresher. No add ins though...cause who likes freeze dried fruit in a drink. read more

Please hire adults that understand orders instead of kids who have attitudes when you inform them they have not made the order as it was requested. read more

If I could rate this particular experience a 0, I absolutely would. *Trigger Warning* If you don't want hair in your food, don't go here! I ordered a drink and a sandwich at the drive thru, and while still in the parking lot I checked my sandwich to re-arrange the bacon (thankfully) and then before I bit into it I noticed a blonde hair in my food. I wasn't upset originally because accidents happen, I just wanted a refund and I wasn't going to eat Starbucks that day. No problem right.....WRONG I showed the cashier my sandwich and explained to her that I just want my money back. She then asks "where is the hair?" So I'm pointing at it telling her that it's right in her face and she then tells me she can't see because she needs glasses. She then proceeds to pick at the sandwich in an attempt to pick up the hair. Now I'm annoyed and grossed out at this point because a simple apology and refund would have ended this situation. But no, she then pulls out what appears to be a long blonde hair, and instead of throwing it and the sandwich away she flings the hair behind the counter. Not ONLY does she do that, but she then proceeds to tell me that no one there had blonde hair and that it could have been Cheese! Cheese!! I had to nicely point out to her the 2 Baristas making sandwiches with long colored hair, and 1 particularly with curly blonde hair which is what she pulled out of my sandwich. She never apologized. She was not empathetic to the fact I almost ate hair from her location. I was disgusted. I was offended and will NOT be returning to that location. The saddest part is that I asked to speak to the manager, and the cashier WAS the manager. She needs some SERIOUS Leadership and Customer service training. ABSOLUTLEY UNNACCEPTABLE. read more

absolutely awful, order is always wrong, coffee tastes burnt. Always dirty. Starbucks is the worst.

I love this place!!! The baristas are super friendly and accommodating. The wait is never too much and I get the drink the way I like it. Thank you!! read more

I don't know what his name is but tall brunette with the glasses was very rude and discriminatory towards me I wouldn't trust him with making your drink. read more

Not a big coffee person, but I was blown away by the strawberry refresher. A really good drink that was full of flavor and not too sweet. Service was fast and easy. Very clean and decorated well. Definitely recommend trying a refresher! read more

This was my first time back at Star Bucks in a long while . My son has grown very addicted to the secret menu items or recipes people has concocted that he now wants to try. He'd tried the cookies and creme frappacino and wanted me to taste the goodness. Let's just say I wasn't as big of a fan as he was. They were out of the cookies to go on top so he settled for some whipped cream. He got a venti size which was waaay too much for him but he wanted the venti from a pricing stand point. Line was short and service was quick which is always a plus for me. read more

Quick stop Christmas Eve. I was worried there would be a super long line in the drive thru. The line wasn't bad, moved quickly, and the staff were super friendly in the holiday spirit. Masks were worn. read more

Amazingly Good coffee. The line is always long but they move pretty quickly. This coffee is a great pick me up for a long day with my Toddler who has zero chill lol. read more

Eh. This Starbucks in the extremely congested parking lot containing a Chipotle, tanning salon, and Pap John's. It has a drive-thru which can cause some of the congestion especially since it isn't a particularly efficient drive-thru. The baristas are typically friendly and will TRY to get your order out as quickly as possible but, unfortunately, it doesn't usually pan out that way. All of your normal drink and food offerings found here, with a couple of outdoor tables in front of the store. read more

Don't order for pick up at this location inside or on the app. They never get the entire order complete. Waited 40 minutes for a basic blond roast and breakfast sandwich. Order shows complete but no coffee. Go to the front and they say they don't have my coffee. Ok well then it needs to be made. They wanted me to coNtinue to wait. This spot is good for drive in only but not if there are more than 5 cars. Managers cannot seem to navigate volume for walk-ins or phone app orders. Usually I don't give reviews like this but this happens every time I order inside or on the app. Hoping the new University City location will hire better managers who know how to staff during peak times and deal with a high volume store. Get it together. read more

I like Starbucks. I frequent often various locations, I like their food, and I own stock in the company (yea, go China expansion!). But they consistently miss the mark on tidiness and cleanliness. No excuses since you have adequate resources. You can do better. read more

Starbucks - 830 Saturday morning and not set up for guests. Dirty, too. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Thank y'all for remaking my coffee to the way I ordered it!!! And that side attitude while doing it was nice of you too!! I won't be returning!!! FYI it still tasted like trash!! And theres where it went!!! read more

Ahhhhh what can i say coffee is life and starbucks is the place to be, love these baristas. Come and enjoy some fresh 24-7!!!

The wait time for this location is always long. They're typically nice & get the order right. It's just an inconvenience to wait 20 plus minutes for an order at all times. read more

This place is trash. Slow as can be. Order my drink on the app in advance showed up a couple mins after the time it said it would be ready. Waited additional 20 mins. Went to counter asked for it said it was being made. Waited another 20 went and asked for a refund was told again it was being made. I never got my money back or the drink I paid for. Fuck this starbucks great way to waste $6 read more

Find another Starbucks. Avoid this one. I ordered one drink and they enthusiastically gave me something different and expected me to take it. When I asked for my next 2 drinks to be on them they declined my request and said they can't just give out free drinks. So they made me another drink which I accepted and threw away for fear someone had spit in it. read more

I would give 0 star if I could that girl Nina at the speaker was rude and got the wrong order and on top of that didn't know the menu. I had to go back in line at the drive through and reorder again big waste of time! And had to mix my own drink in the car read more

Terrible service got my entire order wrong and they wouldn't change it. They gave me my things and closed the window and never came back

The people working there are friendly enough... But this morning - DAMN!!! The drive-thru was moving very slow, so I backed my car up and went inside... BIG mistake... I should have remained in the drive-thru because it took over 10 minutes just to get a small black coffee and a ham and cheese croissant. That is absolutely unacceptable... especially before 7:00 a.m. on a Thursday and especially considering there was no one else inside placing an order... heavy sigh. read more

Whenever I stop at Starbucks I order the same thing, "Caramel Iced Coffee, no cream" and this particular Starbucks added just enough caramel syrup to my drink. It wasn't too sweet nor too bitter. Drive-thru was quick and easy for a Tuesday morning around 8am. read more

This Starbucks location deserves its full-on 4-stars simply for the ease of their drive thru! Speakers were crystal clear, nice menu presentation, orders processed quickly - what's not to like! Got my usual Flat White & it was what I expected - strong coffee flavor but creamy milk - good ratio. Also snagged a slice of gingerbread cake ( tis the season & all ) & it was a huge slice, packed full of ginger pieces to give it an extra layer of chew Would totally come back read more

terrible customer service! i ordered seven drinks, including a plain pike coffee! i was told they needed to brew a fresh pot of pike; 20 minutes later i had six fancy drinks but no cup of coffee! their response - "we need to brew a fresh pot"!! i told the manager "you told me that 20 minutes ago". her response - "look around; can't you see we're busy"! you are in the coffee business!! how do you run out of coffee!! and how do you not make a fresh pot when a customer orders a cup of coffee!! it's coffee, not brain surgery!! terrible leadership and horrible customer service!! read more

Speedy drive through when we popped in for a quick hot chocolate. My wife pronounced it one of the best hot chocolates that she has ever had. read more

I love Starbucks, and this is a great Starbucks because of the location and friendly staff, and there's a drive through now which is awesome. I never actually go inside because it's so busy all the time and the parking is always full. But it seems like every 1 out of 3 times my drink is either incorrect or poorly made. And when you're going through the drive through you're not exactly going to go back to get it fixed. Very frustrating. I love the iced green tea latte but they never make it the proper way and all the matcha powder gets stuck on the bottom or very clumpy. I understand they are so busy all the time, but I am paying for a quality beverage and deserve to get it. read more

The only reason I gave this Starbucks 2 stars as opposed to 1 is because they have a drivethru. I liked this Starbucks before they moved to the new location. The old location would usually be moderately busy. But not like it is now. Every time I visit this Starbucks, it is completely slammed. Being busy isn't the problem, it's the size of the interior. This Starbucks has people squished in like sardines....they have huge tables that almost always have one person sitting at them with their laptop and schoolbooks spread out. I can never find a seat and no one EVER LEAVES. I think they need to have a time limit for people who sit there all day. The employees all look stressed, I assume because this is the busiest Starbucks in Charlotte. They are usually friendly though. I would avoid this Starbucks and hit the one on Mallard Creek or Davis Creek roads. read more

Well, the one good thing about Starbucks is you can get soy milk in your coffee all across the USA (and, they actually pay their employees quite well for food services, and give medical benefits). This Starbucks deserves a shout out since it is right next to Brueggers Bagels, which has free wifi. You can sit at this Starbucks and use the Brueggers FREE wifi rather than paying for T-Mobile through Starbucks. Be sure you buy a bagel or other goodie next door as well (although Brueggers closes around 4:00 in the afternoon. read more

They make you wait at the speaker box in the drive thru instead of taking more orders. I don't know why they do this but it slows down the line. read more

OK, it's close to UNCC and it has outdoor seating. Beyond that, this Starbucks ain't nothin' special! The biggest negative is the lack of seating. There might be 5 of those super small round tables with 2 chairs and one small section of the soft cushion over-sized chairs. The staff is friendly but beware that the line can get very long very quick. The worst that I've experienced is around 7:30 AM on a weekday. I'm thinking many students and professors who have those 8AM classes just have to soak up the caffeine! I really don't visit here unless I have a meeting and even then I try to relocate to the local panera that also has free Wi-Fi or a similar venue. It just cramps my style. read more

Slowest Starbucks drive thru everrrrrr. I come here often because it's the closest to my work. It's like the employee running the window is incapable of multitasking because they only service one person at a time. The car in front of you has ordered, paid, gotten their order and drove away before they even start taking the next order. read more

I love how convenient this location is to my house. But the inconsistency in their expensive drinks drives me insane! Can someone please just email me Jaspers schedule, literally the only person I trust to make my drink correctly with a pleasant personality !!!! Any other time I go there I know my latte is at a 40/60% chance of being correct 40 % correct (just so we are clear) read more

I was really like this Starbucks. Yes they a little longer and I had a mobile order. This is the perfect Starbucks to study, read, surf the web and to take of business. It's large inside with lots and tables and outdoor tables. read more

Always so nice, and most of the time they get the orders right, the only downside is that they take forever.

I just love this new Starbucks location. This is one of the few, maybe the only 1 in the North / University area that have a drive thru. Super convenient for me when I don't want to take my sleeping 2 month old out of the car. Service is always fast and they get heavy traffic because of location (across the street of UNCC), so that's commendable. Always my first choice when I want a coffee fix. read more

Well today I am disappointed at this Starbucks the young lady that takes the order she is very friendly polite very helpful but now the older lady at drive thur pickup really rude. So she had my order in her hand extending out like for me to get it right. So here I come I extend my arm out my car as the same time I am getting my debit card out my wallet. she gave me this dirty look. She was just staring and pulling my order back in the window . Not saying anything to me. I truly was confused In my mind I was like ok what you thought I wasn't gonna pay do I look like criminal. Afterward I I realized what she wanted was my card first. So handed over and said thank you and she didn't say ANYTHING BACK!!!!! Not a you welcome or anything. I was having a good morning until that!!!!!!! If you don't like working with costumers don't work in the public!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I wish I could give it zero stars because that's the service I had. Went there on a Thursday morning like I do every single morning when I go to work, 3 workers inside no one answered the drive thru intercom so I went around to window. 3 workers all stared at me thru the window for 10 mins no one said were closed or anything didn't even talk to me. It's crazy that your customer service is so bad you don't even speak to anyone. I am a first responder as well I am very disappointed as I spend money at this location 5 days a week so I will not return to Starbucks read more

I frequent this location quite a bit based on where it is- not because I really want to. It is a "normal" Starbucks plus it has a drive through which I appreciate. It is in a small plaza and it's attached to a Chipotle, tanning place and Papa Johns. When you go through the drive through you usually see all of Chipotle's trash outside their door which is not an attractive sight. I gave 3 stars because it's just a very inconsistent location. You never know if your drink will be as you really want it- and if you are using the drive through there's usually a reason- you are in a hurry or on your way somewhere! I have had my drink not as I'd like it many times with no time to have it remade, though I know they'd do it if I asked them to. If it was correct the first time- it wouldn't be an issue in the first place. I'm not sure if they are busy, frazzled, or careless- but when I ask for whipped cream and I'm 8 months preggo I expect to get it. :) read more
