Joey makes some of the best drinks ever!! it is such a joy to walk in and see someone that seems so happy to be at work and it shows with how he talks to customers read more

I think that coming here is relaxing and enjoyable every time, especially when I see Joey working! I love the drinks they taste good every time and if there is ever a problem they fix it soon. I think all the employees do a great job but Joey does it best! read more

I love cold drinks when it is sooooo hot!! Starbucks never fails! Their smoothies vary. There are ones with fruit and whatever choice of milk you enjoy. There is also Frappuccinos!! Yummmy! Chocolate is my fave. Sorry I can't fathom the lavender taste, it is popular or it would not have returned! Congratulations on a winner! Services are usually very good. Ambiance is ok. The music can be a bit off at times and I just ask if it can be changed. read more

Starbucks - Mocha Light Frappuccino - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

Busy place and can get a little hard to get in line for the drive through. We always park and go inside. I have to say with all the Starbucks we have been to all over the US, this one had the best customer service in November 2025. The reason I dated this is because we have been here over the years when snow-birding in FL and this particular stop was a step above. I wish I had caught the name of the cashier but he was awesome in helping me use a birthday gift and asking if I wanted to use my stars for my husbands coffee which made our two drinks totally free. Nice to have someone more aware of my star availability than myself. Service was friendly and store was inviting with music in the background. And my drink was just how I like it. Some stores make it too weak. read more

Like any other Starbucks. Service is fast, you get what you'd expect. Location is not so great for getting in and out.

I go here all the time! No complaints, and always very kind employees. Foods always fresh and hot!

My favorite Starbucks in this area! Super sweet girl working the drive thru! My teenager got a Starbucks gift card for Christmas & it was shredded in the washer. The barcode was barely visible & luckily it still worked! The sweet worker assured us it wasn't the first time she'd seen a gift card go thru the wash & recommended we save future Gift Cards on their app. Oh & the mocha frap was 5 stars. As always. read more

Absolutely love this place, I place online orders all the time here and my coffee always tastes fresh when I get it. I recently had an online order and contacted them to ask them to make an alteration and the lady that answered was the absolute sweetest. She honestly made my day, love this store they always have great vibes. read more

Starbucks is great I recommend coming here anytime I want a drink I automatically think of Starbucks especially their food and their drinks are delicious the food is wonderful and the drinks are the best they are so nice too I recommend here 100% read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this Starbucks yet since I'm here like every day The staff is always so friendly. There can definitely be a wait though, as peak times get very busy. But I've never had any issue with this location at all. read more

Out of all of the Starbucks in this area, this is the best one--both in terms of service and the overall atmosphere and size. As a student, I like to come here to get work done. The long tables have outlets all over and the store (generally) doesn't get super noisy/busy, unlike the one in Uptown Station. Barista Andrew makes the best coffee btw! Iced coffee is my go-to beverage, and Andrew makes it right every time. You'd be surprise to learn that it IS possible to make iced coffees wrong. read more

We have three Starbucks in the area. This one is busy but I feel I can work productively. There is always a busy vibe here but everyone is doing their own thing. I really love my baristas. Never had a burnt coffee or milk at this location. Plenty of parking out front, side, or in the back. I've only come here for school work during the day so I don't know the at night vibe. Drive-thru is pretty dope with helping you if you cannot decide what to drink or eat. read more

They never ever get my drink order right. I went in twice to correct my order and they made the same mistake twice. Like seriously? Just listen and care about your customers! read more

I have lived in 4 different cities and this Starbucks is the best I've ever been to. At other Starbucks locations, there are typically inconsistencies with how they make your drink. I have never had this issue at this location and I go 2-5 times a month. They are always very fast and the service is always top-notch. Everyone is always very friendly. I only order from this Starbucks in the area, because they are truly the best. read more

This Starbucks was nice, pretty much just like all the other ones.....its conveniently located right off a busy road. I was just in town visiting and was able to find it easily. The had a great poster up of all the different names and types of coffees they have, that was very helpful! Coffee good, and the pastries by La Boulange are excellent!! read more

Starbucks - Helpful! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

I give it two stars because the employees are sweet but someone either doesn't wash their hands or the machines. Two times we have been here and all of us who got coffee had stomach problems, everyone who didn't, completely fine. The other Starbucks in the area we don't have this issue. Have to think someone doesn't clean properly or wash their hands. Definitely won't be back to this one. The drink orders were also messed up. read more

I've been to this location numerous times. I prefer to order via the mobile app, and the app for this location is never updated with the items they have in stock. The drive thru line is a bit unnerving, as normally during lunch hours it takes 30+ minutes to get through the drive thru and get your order. Usually after 2 or 3pm the drive thru is a lot easier to navigate. The baristas are always friendly when ordering and helpful when choosing something different if they are out of stock of any items. I have found sometimes the mobile app does say that items are unavailable but when going through the drive thru they actually ARE available. While I dread the Starbucks drive thru and prefer to mobile order and walk in, I do wish that this Starbucks was more accurate in that aspect. read more

I stopped by this Starbucks today they were super busy. Nigel in the drive through was so sweet and attentive despite how busy they were great location!! read more

Starbucks :) What can I say,I really like Starbucks. Even if I'm not a coffee drinker, I love their Tea and their strawberry refresher's are the greatest. This was the first time I tried their bagels and it's everything a bagel should be crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Top that off with cream cheese and you have a delicious breakfast. Found this location very clean and the staff friendly and professional. The music a little too loud though. It is the best of everything you love about Starbucks. read more

Starbucks - Inside - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

See all

Every time. Every time. The coffees burnt. Every time. Tried asking for non burnt coffee, woman at the drive through wouldn't even let me talk. read more

Alright...I have a problem. A serious problem. I probably go to this Starbucks at least 4-5 times a week, but I can't help it. The baristas there are consistently good at making my drink orders. How good? Really good. AND FAST. It doesn't surprise me that most mornings between the hours of 7-9 this place is very busy... The drive thru does get backed up, but if you're strapped for time, order ahead online or with the Starbucks App and pick it up. Most of the time, if you order ahead, they will have your order ready right when you walk in. The Baristas that work there are also very nice. Especially Cindy! She is awesome and always has a great, positive attitude! I have been to other places around town and the baristas were not as friendly. A smile goes a long way! I will admit that I have been there so many times that whenever they see me they already know what I am going to order, and that is a nice feeling :) read more

This is the best starbucks in the area. They always make my coffee right and ring it up the proper way. The staff is always so friendly especially scarlett and lydia. They do their job properly and their customer service is the best. I refuse to go to any other Starbucks. read more

This has nothing to do with covid just an FYI since yelp feels the need to give a warning before starting your review. I've went to this Starbucks many times and somehow.. every time I go here they manage to mess something up. Every. Time. Not to mention, the people who work here and rude and seem as if they'd rather be doing literally anything else. In comparison to the Starbucks on Mary Esther, this Starbucks is simply just terrible read more

Don't know what was going on today. Ordered a very simple drink. Tall blonde with carmel sauce and pumpkin flavoring. Took me 25 minutes to get the drink. To top it off 4 people that ordered much more complex drinks got their order before me. So much for walking in instead of going through the drive through. read more

Brand is diluted. Workers do not love coffee. Do not love customers. Do not love themselves. I would rather deal with a machine. This mass produced level of service is not what the brand was built on. I guess not enough people care or there's not enough people saying something from what they miss back in the day. You're profiting off the masses & have betrayed the coffee lover. I'm in search of something better. read more

Was ordering at the drive thru and had excellent service. The tall, young man working was super pleasant, very engaging, and had an authentic smile! The coffee was great too - flat white with 2 pumps of caramel!! read more

Before all the closures I did a mobile order. When I went in to get it there was another customer holding a drink waiting. I saw my pastry and stood there for the drink. The barista asked me my name I told her and the other customer said "oh I have your drink" and handed it to me. I looked at the barista and she said " oh she didn't drink it". They both stared at me. So I took the drink and thew it away on my way out. I won't be back. That was unsanitary. read more

Drinks are great as always but I've been waiting at the drive through window for over ten min without any acknowledgement and I can see my drink melting...not happy read more

Super friendly staff, clean eating area, and an inviting environment. I am new to the coffee world and the ladies I've encountered have been phenomenal. They are helping a newbie find what she likes! Thanks!! read more

By far, the best Starbucks in town (and polar-opposite from the one at the mall). The employees are friendly and competent and their product is very consistent. read more

I've been here a few times already and I think this is the nicest Starbucks in the area. The seating is very nice and clean with two leather chairs to relax as you sip your your favorite coffee or tea. Other stores in the area are much smaller and not as clean in my opinion. I would have to say the only drawback to this store is that before you enter the parking lot there is a nasty dip from the street to the parking lot. You'll have to enter the parking lot very slowly if your car sits low like mine does. The same goes for leaving the parking lot. Don't try to cut out of the parking lot too fast or else you'll end up with hot coffee all over you. read more

Just simply not good. Feels like the corporate culture has gone too far...just expensive coffee with a left wing sideshow.

I have frequented this Starbucks several times and on 3 occasions my coffee was not made properly. I went through the drive-thru all 3 times. I always order a doppio espresso with steamed non-fat milk and two sugars. Pretty simple right? On all three occasions my espresso was cold because I am assuming they poured cold milk in instead of steamed milk. Cold espresso is pretty awful. They have gotten right more than they have gotten it wrong, but cold coffee is just horrible! read more

Starbuck is the BEST coffee shop:-) The employees are knowledgable and pleasant. The coffee CAN NOT be beat. A Place to relax and enjoy a drink of Tea or Coffee, other drinks are available. They have great snacks too. All the Starbucks I've patronized are clean, customer service is excellent, the environment relaxing, coffee is consistant superb and clean. I really enjoy the cake Pops and the mini cupcakes Yummy:-) read more

Worst Dirty Chai Tea Latte I have ever had. It tastes like it is burnt. I should have known better than to go to a different location just because my regular one is closed for remodeling right now. Guess I will wait the 2 weeks until my regular one opens back up. read more

This is my favorite Starbucks for studying/wi-fi, because they are never too busy and have nice, comfortable nooks to sit in. The other Starbucks in the area have tiny tables and sometimes there is no place to sit. It always feels nice and laid back in this location. read more

Hands-down, my favorite Starbucks in the area. The staff is spot-on with the drink orders and are friendly. This one has the largest seating area of all local Starbucks, and the Wi-fi is solid, if slow at times. I drive past the other Starbucks to do set up at this one. read more

I've been a drive-thru regular here for months, and every single time I have gotten excellent customer service. Never had a wrong order. The ladies are always very nice and friendly. There was a guy working once and I can't remember his name but he cracked me up. All in all a good experience! read more

This location is excellent. The service has been fast any time I've visited and the staff has been very friendly. They recently remodeled and it looks great! Wonderful environment for any studying or work and there are patio seats available for days the Florida sun isn't too brutal read more

This is the best Starbucks in the area. Staff is very friendly. They get your order right almost always and if they don't, they don't get offended when you ask them to fix it. The drive thru is a bit wonky but, I deal with it because of the fantastic customer service they provide. Thank you for providing awesome customer service that the folks at the Mary Esther location can't seem to provide. They can definitely learn some things from you guys. :) read more
