    On Saturday October 14, 2023 at 11:11am. This Starbucks employee, went the extra mile for a Starbucks customer in the drive thru. I was on my way to pickup my favorite Starbucks coffee order, when I saw the Starbucks employee, help a car that was broken down in the drive thru. He even made that the customer received her Starbucks coffee order, while pushing a car to a safe location.

    I've never had an issue with this Starbucks, though I don't visit it often. Today at 11:30am, the drive-through was just about 4 cars long; it moved quickly. However, the cup of coffee she handed me through the window was dripping out from under the lid on all sides and down the sides of the cup. I had to ask her for napkins and a new cup and lid only to have it spilling all over again. Finally, I just asked her to pour some of it out to prevent any more leakage as to avoid coffee all over me and the car. It seems that some proper training could possibly help the young lady at the window.

    I left this location a bit ago with my matcha and two birthday cake pops. I didn't notice it at first, but I just looked at my drink and saw the barista doodled a cute little cat on my cup. I hope this review somehow reaches that barista because I just want to say thank you. I have had one of the worst weeks of my life and this gesture brought me to tears. I happen have a black cat at home and I love him so much. This was so sweet and made me smile. Thank you.

    Staff was friendly and the drink I got was good. However it is a bit pricey. Overall a nice experience and the line moved by quickly.

    I hate Starbucks regular coffee. I think it's bitter. But I love their fat free, sugar free latte.

    Situated perfectly a few doors down from Bear Den Books, Treetop is both a mobile coffee truck…read more(we've seen them out-and-about around town) and this brick and mortar awesomeness. Inside, it has a touch of 70's flair and midcentury pizzazz in a small but serene space. Seating is limited, with a few cozy seating spots and many bar seats and low-top tables. The wi-fi was rockin' and many outlets being put to good, techie use. The barista warmly greeted us and quickly got to work with our creations-a cold brew and a hot latte. There is a $1 upgrade for dairy alternatives and any sugar and sweetener is in a self-serve area, not added into the drink (although the barista asked me if that's okay, thus, I think she would have added if I preferred that). They have sugar and stevia, as an FYI for anyone who wants/needs a different option. They have a few baked treats and a few seasonal coffee flavors and add-in flavors and beyond that, the drink menu is simplistic. My latte was the creamiest, foamiest latte in all the land. The coffee itself was a touch more bitter than we like but we were able to doctor it up nicely with stevia. Cute spot with a lovely view of the surrounding, scenic neighborhood.

    Our order: seasonal latte and cold brew…read more I typically am not one for foam but this latte got me. Beyond its beautiful aesthetics, the milky layer provided a rich and nutty sweetness that complemented the dark and earthy tones of the espresso. The cold brew was quite the adventure, taking in every layer, one at a time. What started out as subtle sweetness quickly turned into a cacao aroma and ended at citrus tartness. Small but mighty brick and mortar shop in a quaint neighborhood across from a church and lined with other local businesses. Bar stools, lounge chair, work bench, they've got it all. Certainly a hidden gem in residential Knoxville. So glad we stopped by!

If I'd had more time, I would have loved hanging out here for a while. I only managed to get here about 45 minutes to close, so their selection was understandably if somewhat disappointingly quite picked over. I wound up with a cranberry oat scone and a blueberry and raspberry hand tart. The employee was very pleasant and warm. I appreciated her eagerness to help and positive attitude despite my late arrival. The baked goods sadly didn't really live up to my expectations. The cranberry oat scone was the much better of the two; it was pleasantly sweet and had the proper scone texture and only a little dry. Unfortunately, the hand tart had several edges that I discovered later had been burnt. This impacted the flavor of the whole item and sadly diminished it greatly. The fruit filling was tasty at least, though I didn't get much raspberry from it -- mostly blueberry. I'd be down to try again in the future, just would come earlier in the day when the selection is a bit larger and the products available are a bit more "choice," let's say. I appreciated the kind service and lovely vibes!

Today I was sitting in there doing studying at eating some food I had with me and drinking water. I was panning on ordering an iced chai after I finished my water I just wanted to get through drinking it first. That's when Leticia Fernandez came up to me and said I had to buy something then and I was being rude (I had literally only been in there for 5 minutes). I told her I had been planning on it and showed her my capybara points that showed I was a semi regular customer. She scoffed at me saying "some people have way more" She then said she saw me eating sushi from Publix once there (let me tell you this was on their patio for 5 minutes max and no one was out there and it's a public space) Being in a college area where UTK students find places to sit and study should be expected and when I've literally spent so much money on their overpriced coffee there I would expect to be treated with respect. Well now I have no respect for this business and lady it was not me being rude it was you. If I you as a customer are not wanting to get berated and called rude by a passive aggressive money hungry lady then do not go here. Do not support Leticia Fernandez's business because she is a greedy owner. I guess I will never get an iced chai from here again, oh well it wasn't even that good anyway there's plenty of coffe stores better than them in Knox.Oh also she said I was taking up space at a table and they have a crowded atmosphere when there were still many tables open and it's not my fault you set up the space the way you did, what's even crazier is that I was going to pay for an expensive coffee from them until she berated me. Don't go here go to k brew Knox! Way better people, atmosphere, and coffee! Or seed coffee, or awaken, or coffee and chocolate!
