Of course, Starbucks doesn't disappoint but there were so many people waiting for their orders that it was crazy. I wanted to get my black coffee and pink drink. It just seems like there could be a better way to handle the orders when it is very busy.

A spare of the moment visit to this Starbucks location while driving nearby the Illinois Centennial Memorial Column. Thanks to Yelp for assisting me with identifying it as the nearest location because I just had to have my Starbucks fix, if you know what I mean, hehe. At this location your options for parking are within the neighborhood or along N California Ave which can be a hit-or-miss I imagine depending on the time of the day you visit. Keep in mind that there are other businesses along N California Ave prior to your consideration of this location. What caught my eye while walking up towards this location are its social distancing markers outside of the door, as well as inside. Covid-19 has been a real game changer for places like Starbucks. I have to say it because for the first time ever I entered an empty location with no customer chatter or customers lounging around. Pretty much a shell of what it was, but I can always count on encountering that bubbly barista behind the counter. Not sure if it is just this location or Starbucks locations worldwide, but I admired that the baristas wore masks, as like the customers are required to while visiting. As for my order, I did contemplate ordering a caramel macchiato, but ended up ordering a cinnamon dolce latte which has been my go to drink for years. That taste is always something my taste buds yearn for. Yum! And it keeps me wired up for hours to come. I had the biggest grin on my face after taking a sip of my grande cinnamon dolce latte. Yes indeed my Starbucks fix has been satisfied! I enjoyed the interaction with the baristas prior to ordering and as I waited for my latte. One thing I can always say is that Starbucks hires the right people to work behind their counters. All in all, a pleasant ordering experience at this location. ~Blessings~ Thomas G

First time having this sandwich, and it's absolutely delicious. Bread is soft bacon is good wow so yummy

The first Starbucks I've ever been in with Simplex school clocks. I would really like to get them working again.

For a chain this big, proprietary wifi is the silliest thing. They get two stars and not one because, yes, the patio is nice.

But maybe it was too late in the day. I will try to confirm that on my next visit. Sunny and spacious with high ceilings. One very clean bathroom. And it's right across the street from Bucket o Blood where I can go look at books and DVDs. Which is bad news on a caffeine high!

If one is looking for straight coffee instead of "fru fru" stuff with syrups and all, this is the place to go, they excel at this. On our visit, they had a menu with no less than seven offerings for pourover, with a variety of origins and processing. Using Origami drippers (similar to V60), the baristas will carefully craft your cup to perfection. Our party sampled four of the offerings on our visit, and they were all outstanding. If espresso is your thing, there's only one on offer, Reprise's Space Flower espresso, a more traditional espresso but with a fruity twist, it was satisfying as a straight shot, but if you're looking for a distinctly third wave or highly fruity shot, this isn't it. I'd love for them to pull some of the pourover coffees as espresso, but alas. Bottom line, this was a great visit with some wonderful coffee. Highly recommended if you're in the area, and almost mandatory if you're a big pourover fan.

What made it even better was enjoying it on the back patio on a sunny day. It's a great spot to go study or read while knowing you'll have a great caffeinated drink to pull you through. Cannot recommend enough!

I took a sip. Yuck! I waited a few minutes, thinking, maybe it wasn't THAT bad, and tried another sip. Yuck! On my way out, I brought my drink back to the counter. It was still warm. I told the guy that the drink was terrible, that it tasted like warmed up Hersheys syrup. He took my drink and said, "Oh I'm sorry about that." I paused a second; he had nothing else to say. He didn't offer to make me a new drink. Didn't offer a pastry. Didn't offer a refund. I'm out $6 and I did not get to enjoy a treat. We're urged to support local, but experiences like this remind me why I like to go to the consistent chain that ALWAYS remakes my drink if there's a problem (which their rarely is), no questions asked. Totally disappointing. Would not go back because my drink was terrible and the customer service didn't exist.

I must not have had real Columbian coffee before today. I had a latte at Cal's on Division St…read more it was absolutely delicious. I chose an 8 oz drink, because caffeine and I do not always get along. When I saw the "courtesy cup" size, I thought, "That can't be 8 oz." But, it was, and the cups were on the top of the glass case to show how large they were. It was the right size drink for me. The "courtesy cup" size reminded me of the days in Gahanna, Ohio, whenthere was some kind of privat battle between little BBF fast food place and big McDonald's. I liked BB, and I didn't understand why McDonald's won and BBF went away. They both had courtesy cups for children. Milkshakes were huge. My mother poured some of hers into two courtesy cups, one for my sister, and one for me. Keep your courtesy cup size, Cals. Julie

What a cool spot that's so close to my place! Well branded (interior, packaging, signage, swag for…read moresale...) The bonus here is there is a mini roaster and DJ area with two turntables and speakers. Can't wait to go back for some good vibing. My wife loved the ham and cheese danish. I couldn't get enough of that banana bread muffin with my hot mocha. The barista was pleasant and professional and seemed calm when the line started to grow. Luckily, her "sidekick" showed up soon after and helped to move things along, A dynamic duo. Pics to come soon.
