The experience was smooth and uncomplicated. The setting was clean, and the staff was polite.

Although this location is convenient to my house, and my commute to work, it is just okay. Yes, the servers are always so nice, and the coffee and snacks are good, the wait is extremely long. So, be prepared to wait or place your order for pickup! read more

Went to this starbucks location since my regular one was closed. I've always tried avoiding coming to this location since it's in a very busy street and in a small shopping center. Decided to bite the bullet and stop by. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the parking lot was not busy at all, plenty of parking spots to choose from. There was no no line when I walked in. As soon as I got to the counter, I ordered my coffee and waited, maybe no more than 5 minutes, and I was on my way to work. This location is on the smaller side. There are a few tables you can sit at and lounge, but if it gets busy, I can see this location being pretty cramped. Overall, I would definitely start coming to this location. It was not as busy and complicated as I thought it would be and def. Closer to my job. Everyone was super friendly and nice and had no hassle at all. read more

Just your typical Starbucks! Ordered ahead on the mobile app very early in the morning and it was ready within minutes! The staff was friendly and the drink was delicious. read more

Inconsistent. I order the same simple latte daily.... Never know what it's going to be like. I order and pickup before 6am when the shop is empty but well-staffed. No wonder people have had enough of Starbucks. read more

Just your neighborhood starbucks here! Consistent, friendly and on your way to work... or at least for me! It's rare for me to pop in without having my order already completed on the app and waiting upon my arrival. It's never been wrong and someone working always greets, helps me find my order or tells me to have a good day, and never without a smile. My order has never been wrong and is always a pleasant start to my day! Like I said I don't spend much time inside ordering or sitting, but I do like to enjoy their cute little patio during the warmer months to car and people watch at that busy little intersection. It's not the quietest option if you're looking to do some studying or reading, well unless you have your noise canceling headphones. I'd say if it's in route to where you're going, give it a try and hopefully it won't disappoint for you, as it never does for me! read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Tiny Starbucks on a busy intersection. Not much for seating inside, but folks are still here to hangout with their laptops, drink coffee and do job interviews. It's the same as any other *$ with coolers of drinks and pastries. Note that they do NOT have a drivethrough. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This location is always out of everything, they take an extremely long time making your orders, and 80% of the time they're wrong! They definitely need to improve in all aspects. read more

This is a smaller location and the majority of their parking is gone due to construction. I overheard staff saying they struggle to find parking. 1st time I had my drink called out before my name. She didnt want to murder it lol. She never made my "lightly sweet chai latte with almond milk" before. She asked her co worker. It tastes different, a little watery. Had no issues using my app to order and pay and go. I'm sure someone was waiting for my parking space. read more

Simply put this Starbucks needs to retrain their baristas! I've had nothing but horribly made drinks from this place. I mean, how can you mess up a simple Carmel iced coffee??? The bathrooms are not the cleanest and the baristas don't really seem all that interested in being at work. Steer clear of this Starbucks! read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Placed the order from the mobile app at home at 9:00am on Sunday. The Pikes Place coffee was hot and filled to the top of the cup. The gouda, bacon and egg breakfast sandwich was warm and while not great was filling and good enough for a Target run. This store location is always busy yet both items were ready within 5 minutes for pickup. read more

I don't normally go to places that aren't local, but my boss gave me a Starbucks gift card for Christmas, so I stopped in on my way home today. It's a warm, cozy, attractive space, as all Starbucks are, with outside tables, as well. I noticed the exchange between the lady in front of me and the barista as I stood waiting. The lady was obviously a regular, as the barista not only used her name but was also very friendly to her. When I got to the counter, he said he was going to get her started and he'd be right with me, which was pretty much immediately. He didn't bat an eye at my weird order, but did make sure that's what I wanted by communicating. My coffee was ready within seconds. Matt was incredibly friendly, and since this Starbucks is right down the street from my house, I can actually see myself becoming a regular here just because of him. Don't call me a sellout, it hasn't happened yet. read more

So I have to update my review. I come here a lot because it's my local coffee stop. I'm also obsessed with the java chip frapp. I 99% of the time order ahead for pickup. For the most part service is okay. There are times I've been in here and it's not been good, where another customer has gotten bad service, very awkward to witness. They also don't always make my drink correctly. However that's about 10% of the time. One day my drink was finished and i waited 2 minutes for them to put it on the counter. I actually said something. I'm hopeful because I really like Star Bucks. I can always count on them when i'm out and about, especially navigating another city, i can always stop in and get what I need, water, bathroom ect. The retail is very limited here also. read more

Hey the coffee is great! If your going to be in and out. If you plan on hanging out, the glare is terrible. You will be blinded by the sun. The need blinds for sure. read more

Starbucks - Snowing! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Lexi and Mike at the location is a great team. Walked in on Sunday with a friendly greeting. As I was trying to decide what I wanted Lexi was so patient( normally they are so ready for the next person) and helpful. She offered to make me pistachio latte to try and if didn't like would make something else. Welp I ended up liking it and Mike add his touch to it :)... Thank you both for excellent service!!! read more

I visited this Starbucks just to have somewhere to use my laptop and do some work for a little while. Parking is a bit of a pain. I usually order cappuccino's but on a hot summer day, I really wanted my favorite - a fizzed strawberry acai refresher. Sadly, the fizz machine was down. Instead, I opted for a strawberry green tea infusion. Never had it before. After one taste, I didn't like it. I'm used to sweet drinks. It literally just sat there with condensation growing on the cup from the ice melting. The associate working at the time saw I hadn't been drinking it and asked if I liked it. I told her no, and she offered to re-make it for me and make it sweeter. I thought that was so helpful and I really appreciated her doing that for me. While I still won't order this drink again, after she re-made it, it was definitely better. I do prefer it sweeter. read more

Starbucks - Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Very unfriendly staff unfortunately. Maybe just having a bad day, but it might be better to stay home instead of taking it out on customers. Ended up not getting anything and went to a coffee shop down the road. read more

Being my neighborhood Starbucks, I'm a bit partial. Parking is not in their favor, but the front patio is great for one looking to be perfectly perched. There is no drive through, and the interior is rather small, nestled between two other businesses. The staff members are always polite and the wait is usually minimal. As one that prefers local coffee, I like that this Starbucks has a great local feel. It's right on the bridge of the old school Charlotte Chantilly and Elizabeth neighborhoods, offering a great neighborly feel that is very walkable. It is also surrounded by the likes of Sunflour Bakery, Bang Bang Burgers, Hero's Aren't Hard To Find Comics, The Crunkelton, The Stanley, Sandwich Max, Caswell Station, and other local spots that make it feel like it's a part of the one of a kind selections of the neighborhood. But anytime there's a coffeeshop within a hop, skip, and jump of your front door, it's hard not to be a fan. read more

Of course, I am addicted to Starbucks...this location I like because it's next door to one of my favorite restaurants, "Crisp." However, like the other reviewers, it is small & parking is a pain. Pros: Original hardwood floors Next door to Crisp Drinks always come out perfect Free wi-fi Cons: Small Not a lot of parking options Baristas aren't too friendly (I've gone on several different days / times & though different baristas, their attitudes are the same No patio / outdoor seating read more

The guys and gals at Starbucks will remember your order if you're a regular. And if you never change, you will have your order almost as soon as you make your way up to the register. The place is just too small for the amount of people who come for a cup of Joe. The bathroom is a bit scary, but what can you expect?! Coffee makes you GO! The new food company they use is 10000000 times better than the stale old crap they used to serve. Watch out, most days there are a million cab drivers just chilling at this location. It makes for difficult parking and long wait times. The parking lot is FULL of pot holes in the ground. So it's best to not drive the smaller or sport cars here. Your tires will bust! They should really invest in a 10 dollar bag of cement and fix the lot! read more

Great place for food, tea, meeting spot in Elizabeth. I think the staff are friendly and efficient and relatively fast in my a.m. commute. The spinach feta wrap is very good. I like their teas. The outside patio is small but has a good view. read more

Overall this is a nice Starbucks. They are letting people sit outside. They have never gotten my drink wrong only it takes a little bit of time which is with any Starbucks. They did stop doing mobile orders to provide a better customer service experience which I think is on point. read more

This location is very hit or miss when it comes to your drinks. Depends on who makes them. AM shift seems to know what they are doing more so than the PM. The old white man who has worked here forever (I think his name is mike) is extremely rude and is never personable. Years of working here has slowly drained the mans soul from his body it seems. I try to go to the Cotswold when I can. read more

The Seventh Street Starbucks in Elizabeth is OK, but not anything spectacular. This Starbucks has far too few seats and tables, and is really drafty and cold sometimes. Plus, it really needs outdoor seating. On many occasions, I've met people at Starbucks for a quick business meeting, we've gotten our drinks, then discovered there is nowhere to sit. Then we usually head over to Philosopher's Stone and sit at their outdoor tables until we get mean looks from PStone employees. So then I just started meeting people at PStone or Jacks instead. One major complaint about Starbucks: You have to pay for wireless. I've only caved in once. I was moving and the Internet was already turned off at my old place and every place with free wireless was already closed. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Need a cup o' joe on the fly and want to go corporate? Hit up this Starbucks. But if you're looking for somewhere to hunker down and get some work done, there are a handful of other choices in the immediate area. And those choices are local. That being said, there's nothing *wrong* with this Starbucks. It's nicely appointed, clean (save rush hour) and the conjure up a tasty beverage. However, the lack of seating will really provide a buzz kill to your day. Plus, parking is an absolute pain the ass, and is only further crowded by the fellow restaurants and shops in the area. If you're simply looking fora grab 'n go, this 'Bucks will do just fine. But if you need a bit more space to work and are seeking a local beverage/snack, try Sunflour Cafe or Central Coffee. read more

I don't often go to Starbucks. I prefer a plain black coffee and don't see the point of paying $4 for it. But this location so very chill and I always meet some really cool people here. Plus its sandwiched between Heroes Aren't Hard To Find Comics and Crisp, which has the best salads. There is great outside sitting and the comic book next door provides something different to read, so if you are killing time this is the perfect place. I'll come here on a nice afternoon before work and enjoy a latte, then grab a salad or wrap from Crisp to give me something to eat on my dinner break. read more

So yeah, it's a Starbucks and that means you've got your expected beverages in all their tall, grade, and venti glory along with the usual selection of pastries and breakfast sandwiches. For my part, I'm hooked on 180 soy mochas with no whip and Starbucks still sets a standard for me. The first step to recovery is to admit you have an addiction- done. All that said, I'll agree with previous reviews that this location has some pretty limited seating and it's done in a "shotgun style" with a door in the front and a door in the back, with a straight shot through to each. To its credit, the store was very recently remodeled to include some additional bar seating and I quite like the fact I can park in the back lot and get into the store- easy access and easy departure are more than can be said for most local Starbucks locations. For all the wi-fi vampires out there, all Starbucks now have free wi-fi wrapped in an entrainment package that offers music, news, and more. I tried it out and it's not too bad for a portal. Plus, after the welcome splash screen you can surf to where ever you like, all to your heart's content- well, at least as much as 2 hours will get you. Busiest times are weekday mornings from about 7:30 till 8:30- the line can snake all over the front end of the store. However, outside that rush you can usually find a table seat or enjoy a couple of comfy high-backed chairs perfect for reading something and enjoying a beverage. Lots of locals stop in, so it's a good place to chat with the neighbors. If you stop by on a Sunday morning, you can usually find the wife and I thumbing thru the local paper. read more

I have to put the most important fact up front: This Starbucks has never gotten my order wrong, even when I order some crazy shit that no one else would want. That being said, I feel a good/bad breakdown is necessary to really give you the picture on this 'Bucks. The good: ~Super comfy orange chairs by the window that are great to plunk down in and, say, write a Yelp review. ~The line can get insane looking but I have never had to wait more than a few minutes. ~Most of the staff are really personable. The bad: ~The parking lot is compartmentalized and really difficult to navigate when full. Also, getting in and out can be a bear & a half. ~Some of the staff are not so personable which is not exactly what I'm looking for when I haven't had my caffeine yet. It's a nice little Starbucks, don't get me wrong. My go-to Starbucks, in fact. But it's not a great Starbucks, and to stand out among a good brand you need to knock it out of the park. read more

Great and speedy service. Just wish there were more seats since I was meeting friends to converse about a party. But the jazz playing made it worth the wait, and we made due with a small table. read more

Starbucks - #whereisPainterSmurf? Really enjoying his Frappuccino. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

It's fine. There is nothing horrendously unpleasant about this Starbucks, but it is missing some of the finer touches. The coffee, tea, cakes, etc are all of your standard Starbucks quality, but the store isn't so good. The seating area is small and uncomfortable, unable to accommodate the demand. If you are lucky enough to find a seat it will likely be pressed against the door or the screaming latte machine. Either one is uncomfortable. Coffee shops tend to generate a lot of trash - cups, straws, sugar packets - and when the store is busy I understand that they may not be cleaned up immediately, but there is no excuse for an overflowing trashcan. It must take a whole day of waste to fill it, but every time that I have visited this store the trashcan has been bursting. I have walked out with empty sugar packets in my pocket because there is no space for them. That really isn't acceptable. That said, the staff have always been pleasant and friendly. That counts for a lot. read more

Yes I am a fan of Starbucks... They are who I always fall back onto, especially being new to the QC and wanting NOT to drive across town to a locally owned store front what with gas so high. I came across this Starbucks as I just had lunch next door at Crisp (which was delightful). I really like the "feel" of this one... it reminds me of the one back home. The staff was pleasant, the locals polite and the area cute! Too bad there isn't a spot outside to sit with your dogs - Crisp has one, but I'd hate to take up their tables. The inside is a bit worn, but that is what I like about this one. AND they have a picture of a Vespa on the wall... how cafe is that. They of course have free wi-fi with tons of outlets to plug into, the downside is the glare. I had to move three times to get a better viewing area. Yes I will come back. read more

Loudest music EVER. WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY do they need to BLAST the music?! This in turn makes this location one of the loudest I have ever been in. As someone who needed a normal coffee shop loudness this was INSANE. The noise is just obscene. The ONLY reason I went here instead of Sunflour is that Sunflour (right next door) is closed Mondays (breaking my heart!). If you can, go to Sunflour and NOT Starbucks!!! read more

My nephews like this place. It is clean and the employees are very nice. The line moves quickly. I do enjoy some of their food choices. As for coffee...go to Dunkin Donuts so you'll have money for retirement.. way way way way overpriced! read more

The front cashier was not friendly and was annoyed with my requests. He stated, " you need to speak a little louder." When it came to having the food preparations, he did not want to hand it off. They left the food there while I waited in the hand of the section. They knew I was waiting for a long time. Not to mention the mess the store had. They excused themselves from the service because they knew it was not good. The wait was too long, and the food was okay. They need improvement. read more

why is this Starbucks so much better than any other one I've ever been to? Is it the awesome baristas that work there? Is it their fast service? Is it the neighborhood feel? Or is it the ample seating that makes getting work done easy? The answer is YES. Also, if you're in a hurry I highly suggest using the order ahead feature on the Starbucks app. I've literally ordered from the parking lot, skipped the line and my drink was ready for me when I walked in. By the way, the crew here is AWESOME!!! read more

Closed again.... As usual the regular afternoon people are t worth staying open for. I guess if I was a high paid banker that was up everyday at 5am I'm more important then those of us who do not have such Privilege and Wealth to make Starbucks want our business as well..... you have lost my business because I am not worth it to you read more

One of the sadder looking Starbucks I've visited. Kind of small and cramped. Staff is on top of things though, handling a long line with ease. The coffee was the same as any other Starbucks. read more

Ditto on most the negative stuff. My server seemed bothered that I requested a plate for my munchies since I was eating there. Yes, music is loud bit I liked the selections. Had a pour-over decaf which was excellent, as was the slice of pumpkin bread. This national chain cannot complete with Charlotte's Not Just Coffee; however, in spite of the awkward parking it's a good compromise. read more
