The original "franchise" store Ervin Magic Johnson purchased, although it appears he no longer owns it - all of his memorabilia is gone - sad face. This location has the new Clover and I had several Sunseras from it over the week I was visiting. I wish my home store had the Clover... read more

Starbucks - The Starbucks! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - East Lansing, Michigan

See all

I Love love this Starbucks Location!!! All the staff here are super friendly and excited to see you when you come in! It gets SUPER Busy here sometimes and the employees hardly break a sweat. They try their best & if they don't get it right they are happy to try again. One of my go to summer drinks is the new nitros and cold brews. There are also new teas and Frappuccinos that are a great afternoon treat! I am always super excited to step into this Starbucks location because I know I will be welcomed and greeted by some of the nicest baristas! I can tell they try their very best every day and that makes me so happy to see! Conveniently located right across from campus this location is perfect to drop in any time I will say parking can be a little bit difficult but if you are in the area id stop in! read more

I don't often go to this Starbucks bc it's a bit farther from my apartment but my mobile order is usually done on time/early and the staff is always really nice! read more

Will definitely update this review with the name of the amazing barista. He does a great job with calling out names. Very entertaining. This location tends to be very busy so it's not the best for hardcore studying, but a great spot while filling out applications or responding to emails. read more

Fuck this Starbucks, line is always insanely long and then you finally pull up to order after waiting 20 minutes and they're out of everything Avoid if you can read more

I love the baristas at Starbucks. They do a fantastic job. The food is awesome. They I was so friendly and upbeat

The cleanest starbucks I have ever seen! Not only are the drinks always on point, but the staff is amazing. Maxine and all the other baristas make this Starbucks so unique, and truly a great experience. read more

I've been to this Starbucks few times and today's visit was the worst.... There was one cashier working, one barista and one guy cleaning he floor behind the cashier... the line was long and the cashier was taking orders, making the coffee, etc., while the barista was more busy talking with her friend on the side then making coffee... Okay, I was there at lunch time and I can understand that it can get busy... but that wasn't the reason why I'm giving two stars.... even when busy, the employees should be busy and not slow things down... funny part... after I got my coffee, it seemed like more employee's arrived.... I just hope I don't experience the same thing when I'm back there again! read more

Ugh. So slow. Not friendly. Ordered a coffee... waited. Asked. Told me they were busy. But apparently the computer jammed. Glad I asked...

Employees are always super nice and give really good suggestions, drinks are almost always made correctly

Normally, I am not a big fan of coffee or Starbucks. However, this Starbucks is one of the best Starbucks I've ever seen. I fell in love with the interior the moment I walked in. I know what most of you guys are thinking, "It's just a freaking Starbucks." I know, I know, but most of the Starbucks around my school/house are janky as pho. This Starbucks has the state of Michigan pins on the wall. How cool is that? The reason why my friends and I stopped by this Starbucks was because we were on a road trip and they wanted to check out the school campus across the street. Also, one of my other friends wanted a Michigan Starbucks mug. This Starbucks is spacious/plenty of tables. Perfect for studying or chatting with friends. This Starbucks does not have a lot, so street parking which can be a problem at time. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - East Lansing, Michigan

Ok so this Starbucks is not the fastest, but I think they seem understaffed at times. I will say that the girls who work here are super nice and friendly though and make me want to come back as frequently as I do. read more

Pros: This Starbucks is the best on campus, it's also the largest sized Starbucks in town. There are well over 60 places to sit and study. The baristas seem to care about their work and it shows. The service is good, fast, and friendly (all I need it to be). People complain of parking, but it's free after 6pm on the street anyways. Cons: This location has aged and needs a facelift badly. The place could be a step up if it were newer. read more

I've been going to this Starbucks for a while. They always get my drink right and the staff is very nice. Even when it's busy, it's a great location and the staff seem to be on top of it. read more

As a former starbucks barista, I can definitely sympathize with how crazy things feel when a rush hits. However, this place kinda has poor time management when it comes to getting mobile orders and café orders out in decent time... For instance, this morning I mobile ordered an iced americano and a scone. My drink was ready within 10 minutes because there were many (like 5) baristas making drinks.... However, my scone took over 15 minutes to be placed at the pick up area because there was only one employee working the food area. The quality of product here is fine, but you shouldn't rely on your order being ready quick if you're in a rush. read more

Kevin one of the employees that was working today was super nice! He greeted me with a smile and helped out the kind gentlemen who was in line in front of me with his order. Kevin was awesome and seemed happy to be here. read more

Both the service and the parking lot are terrible. If you park you cannot get out because the drive thru lane runs right through the parking lot. I've been sitting in the line for 30 minutes. I've waited an hour here before. Do not come here. read more

My favorite Starbucks in East Lansing! It's right across the street from campus on Grand River. It's small, but they have a lot of nice couches and tables. I come here quite often with my friends. Especially during finals week. Last time we went there every couple of hours they came around with free drink and food samples. Recent drink that I tried here which is great is the caramel brulee latte. So delicious! read more

I've been drinking just their plain Pike coffee for a long time but the only reason I continue to go here is because of the friendly staff. They are always welcoming; and I appreciate that. read more

I'm not a huge fan of the coffee taste but love my drinks with 1/2 the normal espresso. I went to get a tall white chocolate mocha for my birthday and the male barista working convinced me to get a grande and personally made it himself with 3/4 shot of espresso. I call that amazing service!!! read more

Compare to the other Starbucks near little Caesar. This one is horrible. Bad taste. Unfriendly staff. The only good thing is its interior decor makes it Look good. All other things are not so good. It's just the location that makes the Starbucks here. read more

The 2 stars are for the drinks and the employees. They are exactly what you expect at any busy Starbucks. However, I will never return to this particular location. Finding a parking spot is next to impossible. After finally accomplishing that, good luck finding a table not occupied by an obnoxious undergrad taking up way too much space! But I love my Starbucks coffee, so I make it work. I walk out of the building happy with my purchase, but by the time I drive away from the building, I'm frustrated and angry because the parking lot is absolutely atrocious. The people going through the drive-through are rude; they block the exit and don't let parked cars leave. This series of frustrating events has happened all three times I've been to this location. It's not worth it. I'll go to the on-campus location before I go back to this one even though I can't use Starbucks cards at the on-campus location. read more

Drinks are good but service was bad. I was told there wasn't money on my card when there was. Had to explain that yes there was money on it and had to scan it 3 times then she said yes. read more

A surprisingly good Starbucks. A notch above the others, featuring a fast drive-thru, a capable staff, and a cozy environment. It's one of the few Starbucks left that really have the comfortable coffee shop feel we've lost over the years. I would highly suggest this Starbucks to friends and coffee lovers. read more

This is the slowest Starbucks ever. I go to Starbucks regularly and am very understanding of when they're busy and training new people. However I am consistently waiting 15-20 minutes for my drinks. This morning I mobile ordered at 10:24 and didn't get my drink until 10:45. It's frustrating when I order on my way to class or work and then end up being late because I didn't order 30 minutes in advance. I love you starbucks, but I'm going to need to find a new location because I'm giving up on this one despite its central location. read more

I'm not really a Starbucks person, but after becoming fed up with Espresso Royale I decided to walk a little out of my way today to Starbucks. I was expecting the corporate Starbucks feel but that is not what I got. This is far and away the best Starbucks I've ever been to. Obviously you're not going to get much other than expected in terms of product but the staff are great and the ambience is warm and comfortable. I know when it's busy it can be a little slow but it's nice to get a friendly greeting after waiting in line. read more

Best Starbucks I've ever worked at. From an employee perspective its nice to work somewhere where human relationships and customer satisfaction are valued more than profits. I can confirm most of the baristas at my store give 110% when it comes to making you a good drink and connecting with you, even for a few seconds. read more

This is my third time to this Starbucks in my travels across the country. Stopped by today before my meeting and they are out of bananas and therefore cannot make my morning smoothie. I am super glad I went out of my way to stop here this morning. read more

Great atmosphere. A perfect place to read and study. It looks much better after the renovation. The coffee is always warm. The service is great and fast. The only uncomfortable thing is that there is no parking lot! read more

The barista who served me had to be the nicest barista I have ever met. He was polite and he asked me about my day and was just overall a good employee that exceeded my expectations. read more

The best Starbucks I've ever been to. The employees are so jolly and nice. One time they accidentally gave me a mocha instead of hazelnut frap. Not only did they give me a new one and upped the size to venti, but also gave me a waiver for a free drink! read more

This is a good college-town themed Starbucks. It is usually very busy and usually very loud. If you have problems working with a lot of people talking around you, then don't go here. It's usually hard to find a seat, as well, especially if you have more than 2 people. Good luck! read more

Best Starbucks in town! Incredibly friendly staff who make the effort to get to know you. I've always been pleased with their service, and the atmosphere is great for studying or meeting up with friends. Also a great selection of coffee and products to purchase. read more
