Customer service is amazing lovely environment. It's cool when you have the baristas know your name and order every time and make the best drinks only if they had the other ice from their other store read more

The girl that greeted me was rude and condescending. The drink was substandard for Starbucks name. I used stars for shot. Asked for a shot in cup and she blatantly just dumped it defiantly and made a new drink which is NOT what I asked for. She doesn't belong in customer service. Wish I had gotten her name. Not the customer service I'm use to at other stores. They definitely won't waste drinks and be that belligerent about it. I won't return to this location!! read more

Only in town a few days. First visit was late morning today. Staff here was excellent and very efficient. Like that they have a lot of inside seating. Location is great with plenty of parking. Admittedly, I had my full PSL fix today along with pumpkin muffin. Now and then it's a good treat. Everything tasted great. read more

Starbucks - Order station. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Coalinga, California

I come to Starbucks daily for my fix of caffeine. I am always....ALWAYS greeted with a smile and energetic hello's. The customer service is more of an experience than just order, pay, and leave. The baristas have recommended drinks to try based upon previous orders. I didn't even know about blonde shots until they introduced to. Today 10/25/22 I was invited to participate in a coffee tasting with my coworkers and it was beyond the coffee experience! Starbucks has detailed was to sample coffee.... Like it was wine! We are all amazed to experience coffee at this level. It was a great environment to be in and took us away from a small quaint town to a coffee house in wonderland. Great great great customer service. I can not express it enough how welcoming everyone is and suggestions make you feel like a valued customer. Stop by and get you jolt of caffeine here! read more

Starbucks - 5 shots of blonde expresso over ice - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Coalinga, California

Ezekiel is a great employee, his customer service is amazing every time I go in he is very nice and as soon as I walk in he greets me! He is a solid employee his drinks are the best and are always good every time I go in. read more

Jaylynn was such a refreshing server. Keep her!! Solid employee!! I just wish my drink would have been a little better.

If my drink hadn't been made correctly it would of been one star. It's early on a Sunday and came in for my usual but instead I had to listen to all the town gossip and bad mouthing their hardest working employe Amanda. I don't care about internal power or who knows who I shouldn't have to wait 5 minutes for a tea because motormouth would rather talk than actually make drinks...her job-the other were busy doing their jobs. One car in drive-thru and just me in the lobby. read more

A Starbucks Oasis in the middle of what I consider a desert, it was 106 degrees outside and I thought maybe it was a mirage. This could qualify to be one of the most remote locations ever for a Starbucks. Not only was it Starbucks it's a great Starbucks staffed by extremely friendly employees who represents the brand well. Quick, efficient, accurate products served with a smile :-) read more

Wow What rude service This is the worst Starbucks I've ever been to in 49 states I've never been accused of stealing coffee because I had the nerve to ask the server to refill my coffee cup for which I was subsequently charged and used my Starbucks gift card to pay for and which was served cold and clearly old. You serve me the bottom of the caraf old cold coffee, which should have been tossed out and RE brewed then you charge me for the refill, and then proceed to accuse me of steeling coffee as if I am undeserving of your would be discarded refuse. The quality of the coffee one expects to receive from a Starbucks should regularly be consistently superior to your competitors. Britt (or so your name tag indicates) you have much to learn about customer service and how to treat people. Your holier than though attitude accusatory tone and language are insulting and a huge turn off. Furthermore, Your personal failure to maintain consistent quality controls clearly convey you are single handedly destroying your brand. Perhaps you should go in to a different career path where you are less likely to turn customers away with you unacceptable behavior. Or alternatively seek counseling to deal with the hate you have in your heart towards others. Perhaps you can learn to channel that negativity and redirect it towards something positive so can contribute to society rather than detracting from it. I will pray for you But I will never return to this Starbucks God bless you And god bless the United States of America I approve this message read more

My coworker and I decided to grab some coffee before we headed out to work Saturday morning. We both agreed on Starbucks and I knew they opened up at 5am. Well we showed up at 5:15 in the morning and saw the lights on. As we walked up to the door, the lights had been on but were suddenly turned off, as if to convey we were not welcome to go in. Kinda pissed me off, because of them not being ready we had to find another place to get food and coffee. Also, the two times I had come before, they ran out of trenta cups and they also ran out of cold brew, on both occasions. So not sure why they're so lax here in Coalinga. Y'all need to step up your game. read more

Worst Starbucks ever!!! I have family that lives in Coalinga, One night as I was headed back to Fresno, I looked at the clock and there is still a half an hour before they closed, so I thought I would get a mocha and head back to Fresno... So I go through the drive-through I place my order and I'm ready to pay the girl hands me My drink, and tells me it's on the house.. it's free.. OK thank you I appreciate it I'd give her the five dollars and I tell her take it is for for tip... So I'm driving down the road and I take my first sip and it's not a mocha it's something they just put together and it taste disgusting!!! So basically they closed up ship and he just gave me something and try to pass it off as a mocha.. REALLY?!? That's messed up cause what if I would've drank it I could've got sick! And yesterday here's a perfect example I'm visiting my relatives again I look at the clock because I haven't been to Coalinga in a few months.. It says they close at 10 through the Starbucks App... 10!!! So I go to the drive-through at 8 and guess what... they are already closed.. That's fine you can close whatever time you want to close but at least let the update the app.. I just wish they had a better staff that work there.. This is probably the worst managed Starbucks I've ever been to and the laziest staff.. Update the app if you want to close early and if you close at a certain time that's the time you close at night and half an hour early! And don't give customers drinks that good possibility get them sick! The People of Coalinga deserve a better Starbucks!!! And better staffed Starbucks!! read more

Doesn't get drinks right and although it's not busy whatsoever they will take forever to get you your drink! Plus expect a shitty attitude. read more

This is the worst Starbucks in California. They can't get the drinks right and They never do. The drinks don't taste the same here. I always end up buying more coffee at another Starbucks on my way home to redeem theirs. Sad that this is the only coffee place around here. read more

Order mine online for chicken caprese sandwich and mango dragon fruit (which I wanted strawberry acai, but the app said its sold out). When I got to the drive thru, they said they ran out of the mango pieces but have the strawberry instead (!!) so, i ordered strawberry acai thru the drive thru. When I picked up my drink, the girl seems to have attitude because she has to make new drink. I left right away because im running late to work. And realized that they never give me my sandwich. Tried calling the store to give me refund for the sandwich they never give me but the number is busy read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Coalinga, California

You know how Starbucks iced coffee / iced latte is made first with like half a cup of ice and then scantily poured liquid? Not here. The liquid goes in first and then the small ice cubes gingerly scooped in to prevent splash and spillage. I can DEFINITELY appreciate that :) ---- wow 2 Bible Studies going on- one high school age and another geriatric age. Wow morning Bible Study before school starts? (Kids just left in pickup trucks.) read more

Starbucks - a person holding a cup of iced lemonade - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Coalinga, California

We were passing through here and we stopped to get coffee. They were not busy except the person ahead of me ordered 5 drinks. The barista making the drinks looked like she would rather be anywhere else doing anything else. It took her forever to make those drinks. I saw her then making my drink and when she set it down I pointed out to her it wasn't what I ordered. She simply looked at me, remade it and handed it back without a word. I get Starbucks daily and this was one of the most unfriendly rude baristas I've ever seen. There is another Starbucks closer to the freeway, don't waste your time at this one. read more

This Starbucks is always a 50/50. You can either have a wonderful experience or have a horrible experience. All depending on which employee is working at the time. Some are wonderful/professional/ overall great, others look like they hate their lives and give attitude. read more

This starbucks always has great service. I come about 1-2 times a week. Service is fast. Drinks are always great. I do come early and do not have to deal with the morning rushes. read more

Starbucks !!!! Oh how I love you.. even while hating myself for being sucked up into the corporate whoredom of big franchise companies. I just can't help myself. I am weakened by the tastiness of their frappuccinos, cappuccinos, and macchiatos. Hot and cold deliciousness. I just can't keep myself away. Over all, one Starbucks is about the same as another. So all you can do is base the review on the friendliness of the staff, the sped of service, and the cleanliness. This place was clean. They satff was friendly. It was 6am on a week-end so the wait was minimal. Nothing bad to say. I was just extremely glad I cold find a Starbucks in the area to fulfill my little soy Hazlitt frappuccino of a heart... read more

This Starbucks is the worst I have ever been to. It was dirty, they got multiple orders wrong, and flys were swarming inside. Then, when I went to change my son in the car (because they didn't have a changing station) I found a bug on him! I was also bit by something while inside. The floor was filthy and the customer service was terrible. I am a Starbucks regular and have never been so disappointed in Starbucks. read more

Very impressed with the Coalinga Starbucks! Neat and clean. Same for restrooms. Great service. Recommended rest stop if you are traveling Hwy 33 read more

I don't know what's going on with the ambiance of this place but how come the service here from the employees are becoming horrible? Since it's the only Starbucks around the area, I'm stuck dealing with the attitudes. So, I bought a tumbler here, and this heavy set woman told me in a rude way to go wash my straw and lid in the bathroom. First of all, very unsanitary, second, I understand that it's a policy not to touch other people's straw but don't you think that it isn't as worst as going to the sink in the bathroom and wash it there? read more

I mean, fuck Starbucks, but when I'm out in the middle of no where (which is what, I think, "Coalinga" means in Esperanto), they're one of the most reliable places for wifi when I need to do a quick hour or so online for a meeting. McDonald's can be a disaster of the whiny, obese child variety, and, even if there were local places in a town like this, the wifi tends to be really iffy at those places. I had to see it too. Not only is there a full (i.e. - not inside Safeway) Starbucks location in this horrible, hot little prison/oil town, but it was possibly the cleanest Starbucks I've ever been inside. Maybe that's how they avoided that massive location closure the company had a few years ago. It certainly isn't because the employees are particularly cheery. The wifi was very slow. I shouldn't have expected anything else, but it was at least able to hold my VPN connection. Seems like this Starbucks still holds some novelty locally, because there were a lot of idiots just sort of hanging around, trying to be seen and heard. Bring headphones. This in opposition to most locations, where people are either there for the relatively clean bathrooms, the free wifi (and buried in their devices) or in line for that horrible coffee but immediately leave when they have it. read more

This is not the most efficient Starbucks I've been to. Today I had really great customer service from a barista named Kristi and even though my order was messed up she had it fixed right away and was a very lovely person. Definitely would come back to this location more often if all the baristas working there had the charisma and efficiency of kristi ! read more

Ah, Starbucks... What can I say? Having moved here from Los Angeles for employment this small, small town has a Starbucks made my life! They do however close at 10 pm which was ridiculous to get used to until I realized the entire town closes up around 9pm, ( most places close all day on Sundays). The staff here is local, so if you are driving thru, they speak 'Starbucks' but this is a small town. Friendly folks, clean place, and I drink blended drinks, so I have NEVER had a problem. WiFi in lobby always easy to connect, but I too suggest headphones if you want to complete your task. A surreal experience for city folk passing thru. read more

The service was fast friendly and courteous. The staff went above and beyond what they needed to complete with our order, especially Katie, and special made a sample of a drink for us to try. The service and quality of the staff are definitely worth going back. read more

Went into the Starbucks in Coalinga, on Polk and there is an awesome new girl working there; her name is Antonette. She's incredibly polite, helpful and although she's new, she wasn't afraid to ask the more seasoned employees for answers. She was very thorough and paid special attention to our order's details (and there were A LOT of details). Thank you Nette, you made our visit to Starbucks everything it is suppose to be. I only gave this 4 stars because on our other trips, before today-- service wasn't 100%. read more

When I used to work in Coalinga, this was one of my regular stops. It also served as an informal meeting place for many people ( district meetings, church meetings, women's groups... well you get the picture!) They were always very friendly and they put out a good product! read more

Worst service ever. Went at 7 aM. Wasn't busy at all. I asked them for 8 oz of milk steamed for my son. They had me four. Ask them again for four more. Lady gives me attitude. All workers seemed miserable and were rude. Such a nice Starbucks needs better people. read more

This location has greatly improved recently. A few gems from the previous staff remain, and the new-hires are fantastic!

Most disgusting coffee, ever. Might as well just get a cup of joe at the gas station. Not to mention the staff was super rude and cold. Boooooo! read more

If I could give this store zero stars I would. Actually no I will leave my one star for the employee named Peter. I entered Starbucks at 3:50pm, not a lunch hour and not even immediately following a busy time. There were two customers on the patio and two customers seated in the store already enjoying their coffee. I walked in and stood at the register and listened to 4 barista's in their late teens, early 20s laugh and giggle and talk behind the counter. Not one of them said hello to me when I came in and not one of them acknowledged by presence at the register. I sat head tilted watching them interact and wondered what was actually working at the store or were they all four on their break? About a minute goes by and suddenly a man emerges from back kitchen and walked straight over to me and offers to take my order. I turned to him and said "Thank you!" in an exasperated tone. I'd been on the road for two hours and needed to use the restroom and walked in and of course it was a disaster with two empty toilet paper rolls staring me in the face so I turned around and asked one of the original four employees if he could please restock the toilet paper in the ladies restroom. Without a word he turned and grabbed two rolls of toilet paper and walked over to the register presumably looking for the key. While he was looking for the key, another customer walked in and wanted to place an order. The employee I was so desperately waiting for with the paper set down the rolls of toilet paper and started to take the other man's order. Peter, the first employee who came to my rescue the first time, must've seen how irritated I was and walked over and grabbed the rolls of toilet paper from the first employee and offered to finish the job. By this time, one of the other four giggly employees finishes my drink and called out my name but I still haven't even had a chance to use the restroom. At that point I was thinking I would've been better off to pull off to the side of the road to pee than to come to this Starbucks and I could've saved $4 in the process. When I finished using the restroom, I retrieved my drink from the counter, went out to my truck and took my first sip and was not the least bit surprised to find that my "no foam chai latte" of course had foam and tasted like an overload of spices. I was so fed up with my experience at the store I didn't even care enough to go back inside and complain nor did I want to see anyone inside that store ever again. If Peter isn't the shift manager then maybe he should be so he could whip some people into shape...and if he IS the manager then he needs to start delegating and get his employees to do something rather than him do all the work. read more

Often runs out of cup holders. Younger staff can be rude, not greeting or even acknowledging customers waiting at the counter. Clean area and I haven't had that much of a problem with the quality of my coffee, just bad customer service! read more

I love starbucks, but today I left the drive thru pretty upset. I stopped on my way to work at 5:30 am and I have in the past got my coffee at that time. I waited for 5 mins waiting for anyone to say something, I said "hello" 3 times and got no response. I pulled up next to the window and saw 2 female workers I don't if they were getting set up or what but it would have been nice if they would have acknowledged me and said "sorry we're not open yet" if that was the case. This is my 2nd time this has happened to me. Can you please work on communication with the customer, a simple acknowledgement is appreciated. Also please update the hours on the web, while waiting for a response I googled the coffee shop hours and it said it was "open" so I was more upset that I couldn't get my coffee at "open" hours! I don't know who's at fault but please fix the issues! read more

I was warmly greeted and the lady who took my order was a really sweet and patient lady. What great service! I was having a very hard day/week, and so her cheerfulness was really what I needed. Their Chair Tea-latte was especially yummy as well, though not hot like I wanted, at least I was able immediately enjoy it!. Will totally come back again simply because of the service!! read more

For the only Starbucks with in a 40 mile radius ( next one is in Lemoore)they have good service and are mostly polite. Occasionally I will run into a barista who is a bit moody but not that often. Give them 4 stars because they close at 9pm. That's Too early but I have a feeling the city did not allow them to do so. read more

Best Starbucks by far. Best customer service. Most consistent drinks. They remember everyone's names, orders and how they want their drink made. They even recognize voices in the drive thru. They create a welcoming environment, it is always clean and they move fast behind the counter to get drinks out quickly! read more

be grateful they have a starbucks here at all, let alone one w/ a drive-thru (which takes forever, even w/o a line). their baristas aren't the best at making drinks but some of them are quite friendly. on one occasion i think i overwhelmed them by ordering six of seven drinks and the whole team looked at me and then back to each other a bit frazzled. but it'll do if u really need ur caff fix. read more
