I noticed this Starbucks by complete surprise upon entering Target to snag a drink. I feel like some sort of sign or something to let people know where it is at would be helpful near Target's entrance, but oh well.
This Starbucks is a bit different from the typical standalone Starbucks that one may encounter, but not very different than your average in store Starbucks. The decor is very practical and is of a bright mixture of oranges, wood tones, browns, and reds, which is a nice switch up from the standard black and brown of most stores in the franchise. One neat feature is that the coffee shop sports a bar around 30 feet long near the windows, so you can chill out and watch the traffic and people if you feel so inclined. My only gripe about the shop's appearance was that the red wall that I was seated against by the employee door could use a rub down as there were some smudges of dirt on them, though that may have been from the morning from some sloppy customer.
The employees were very friendly, courteous, and funny. The cashier was quite funny and had a good chuckle with me when I ordered just a regular black iced coffee because regular coffee wasn't included in her training. My wait was less than a minute, but that may be attributed to my simple order. The quality of the coffee was the same as any other Starbucks.
Overall, since this is my first and probably only visit that I'll make here due to my infrequent trips to the area, let alone the Target that houses this cafe, take my review with a grain of salt once some regulars begin to review or enough one shot reviews accumulate. read more
