    Starbucks
    Aruna K.

    Was in the area so dropped into this Starbucks and got the Iced pumpkin spiced cream chai tea latte - phew a mouthful name !, a bagel and a doppio macchiato The pumpkin latte brought out the autumn feeling quite nice and the weather supported it very well. The dupio macchiato is an espresso, pretty good and the bagel was really nice- fresh and soft. The staff was very friendly, am not sure why the current rating was 1.5 stars... hmm They do have a drive through, but that was making the whole area really crammed and congested otherwise service inside was just fine.

    For those people that are in a hurry, I would definitely NOT recommend this "Starbucks" location. Reason being is because what I thought would only be a 10-minute trip ended up being a 35-minute trip. The location I am focusing on is directly on the corner of Monroe Blvd. and the Gulf Freeway frontage road which runs very close to "William B. Hobby Airport" in south Houston. I came here with my lady on the morning of Friday 8/23/19 around 10:15am. First and foremost, the parking lot and drive-thru here is an absolute disaster. Since the drive-thru had at least 10 cars waiting to order, it snaked into spaces where customers were trying to enter/leave. I was in the middle of this chaotic mess as it became a challenge all in itself just to park as this alone took nearly 5 minutes of our time. It doesn't help one bit as there was several other neighboring business adjacent to this location. Once inside, it wasn't that much better. Even though the interior is nicely laid out and spacious with ample seating and fairly decent Wi-Fi, my lady and I were both confused which line to get into as there was two cashiers, or was it one cashier? It seems as if one of the cashiers that took an order ended up making the drink. Which left us all shaking our heads of who was up next ready to order with two separate lines. Either way, we both waited another 10 minutes just to order and nearly 15 minutes just to get our drinks. Fortunately her Iced Vanilla Latte tasted correct while my Iced Mocha was exactly how I wanted it; 1% milk and no whipped cream. At least that gave us hope that the baristas knew what they were doing even though things moved at a snails' pace. The hours here are very generous as this particular location is opened from 4:30am to 10:30pm seven days a week. But keep in mind that its the only Starbucks within a couple square miles so only come here if you're not in a rush.

    My 4 star review for morning shifts the same. This updated review is for afternoon shift. Spent 30mins in drive thru and there's only 4 cars (I'm the third car)! Those in front of me only ordered one drink per car. Still, they messed up cuz I saw they're returning the drinks. Anyways, I ordered my usual order (triple espresso with 2 pumps WC, 2 pumps vanilla and cold foam) idk how it took them 15mins to make that. I saw in the window staff is running around like they're trainees, don't know what to do. It was chaotic! Finally I received my drink, the foam settled after just 1 light shake!! The worst!!! My drink tasted weird too! I couldn't taste the syrup flavors nor the foam. Bummer! Was a mistake coming here in the afternoon. Should've sticked to the morning shift. Hate to compare or complain but it's true.
