Two stars only, because the service for walk-in customers is terrible!!!! They take forever to acknowledge you and you will probably wait 5-10 minutes for a simple order like ice tea. Their focus is on the drive through. This is how restaurants ruin their own business. The patio area is nice. read more

Starbucks - Patio area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

I'm reaching out because I am extremely frustrated and honestly pretty angry about how the holiday bear release was handled here in Knoxville, Tennessee. I waited two months for this drop. I planned for it, woke up early, and made a special trip before work on Thursday expecting the product to actually be available. Instead, here's what I walked into: a parking lot overflowing, a line wrapped around the building, and customers being told the store received two bears total and both were sold directly to employees. Not a single customer had a fair shot. That alone is unacceptable. I then went to the Starbucks inside my local grocery store. They never received any bears at all. On Friday, I tried another Starbucks on my way home, and once again, that store also never received a single bear. At that point, it truly felt like a joke. Knoxville is a major city. The idea that multiple stores didn't receive the item, while others received so few that employees took them before customers even had the chance, is ridiculous and unfair. Whether this was a botched rollout or some kind of "social experiment," it left a lot of customers feeling misled and disrespected. People spent time, gas, and energy chasing a product that wasn't even stocked. There was zero communication, zero transparency, and no accountability for stores where employees bought the items out from under customers. I expect a real explanation for how this happened and what Starbucks plans to do to make this right and prevent it from happening again. Sincerely, Colby Musser read more

Horrible horrible horrible. Will never go back. The employees are incredibly rude. Have gone to Starbucks for years & this is by far the worst location I've ever been to. read more

The crew here is phenomenal been very stressed with schoolwork and the environment here is great to be productive. They keep the store very clean and are very kind when communicating with customers. Very valid. read more

Order a tea with no ice.... they fill it about 60% of the way up. Never seen this before. I've been to hundreds of places and this is the first time I've seen this. Boo to this place read more

Great Starbucks. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The restroom was clean. I learned that a vanilla cappuccino has 3 pumps of vanilla so if you don't t like it that sweet just order with fewer pumps. My drink was delicious. read more

By far the least competent Starbucks I have ever encountered. They had a sign on the door stating that inside service was unavailable, so I could not pick up my previously placed mobile order. Then, upon attempting to go through the drive-through, I found they had made no effort to have the order ready, and had to be reminded what was in the order. I recommend you take your business elsewhere. read more

Best Starbucks in town ! Service was fast and the atmosphere is nice. Very clean. For food I always get the grilled cheese and it's a must if you visit ! Soooo good. read more

Serious question. Does every Starbucks get trained to make drinks a different way? To pay over $5 (for below average coffee- truly it's the convenience of it) why is my order different EVERY time. I order salted caramel cream cold foam. My friend in MD was a regional, so she showed me how it was suppose to be made. THICK creamy salted foam on top with caramel in it. Then a dark colored cold brew underneath. This location has it all wrong. Their "foam" looks like gelled milk. It's unfortunate, I decided to give them one more chance today... but this is a waste of money. Even when I go in to get it remade, same inconsistent drink. I honestly think they've became so focus on the drink take outs, and drive through, the company as a whole lost what it originally stood for. The experience. read more

Starbucks - What I got. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Cold coffee and not the first time. So disappointing. Terrible logistics to enter the drive thru. Last visit to Starbucks for me.

I woke up not feeling very well, so on my way to the doctor I figured I might as well do what makes me feel better. Drink a Skinny Vanilla Latte! It was delicious as always! read more

I don't know if the guy at the register take my order wrong or the other guy make my coffee wrong. I order 2 different drinks, and they make 2 same drinks. I told him and he still making my drink wrong. I end up had to throw away and not drink it because it was way too sweet. Not enough expresso in it and I didn't ask for sweet cream in it. read more

Totally messed up my mobile order, and they were extremely slow, drive thru was empty so that's not an excuse. Gave me a plain croissant instead of the almond one A vanilla Frappuccino instead of a mocha one My macchiato was only 3/4 full They put ice in my refresher when I asked no ice and it was the wrong refresher. Seriously how hard is it to get it right!"? That's why I did the mobile order so I could make the requests and order in detail! read more

This is a great Starbucks. I come here almost daily. The drinks are always made to perfection and the baristas are wonderful! Sometimes they make me laugh so hard my mocha comes out my nose! I love this place so much that I can seriously overlook the thing about the bathroom key. I actually appreciate the key! It makes me feel so special, like I get a key to the (sh)city! I am so glad this Starbucks is here ^__^ Yea for cooperate coffee! It really does taste better! read more

Just moved to Farragut and this is the closest freestanding Starbucks to me. (Don't care much for the in store ones like Target). It's nice inside and the employees are also nice. They have a drive thru which is cool for some people, I prefer to go in though! Not really much else to say! read more

I've been here 5 times in the past two weeks. I come here specifically for their Clover machine, which is the only one on the area. I generally stop by after work, around 9pm each night. Each time I stop by, they tell me their Clover machine is broken. It's not. I recently found out that the staff there is lazy and clean the machine 2 hrs before close and then tell customers it's broken. Secondly, the ALWAYS close early. At least 15 to THIRTY minutes. If your hours online and on the door are listed as 11pm and 12am, that's when I expect the doors to lock. Not 10:30pm and 11:40pm. To top it off, every single staff member here is rude. They need to fire their entire staff and start from scratch. This place SUCKS. read more

This was the absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced. Got treated like I was the dumbest person ever when I asked if the pumpkin bread was back in season. Didn't even order after that because I refuse to give my service to that rude human. Avoid here on Thursday afternoons at least. read more

We frequented this location a lot but our recent experience has made us go elsewhere! Maybe a month or so ago this happened. Our order came to $15 or so, one of our orders was a large hot chocolate. We get home (about 10 minutes) with 2 kids under the age of 4. && my husband takes his first sip to realize it's just MILK!!!! No hot chocolate. For as much as we pay for the damn thing we heard back to get what we paid for. I go to the drive thru again, tell them what happened. I don't even get an "I'm sorry" she takes my cup makes a new one looks annoyed. By this point I'm pissed. I don't even want it anymore, I ask for a refund when she gets back (she rolls her eyes) manager comes gives refund still doesn't apologize. Hands me the drink. Moral of the story sometimes an apology goes along way read more

I stopped into the Turkey Creek Starbucks in Knoxville (11038 Parkside Dr.) for a coffee and needed to use the restroom. A note on the door indicated the men's bathroom was now locked, and I was given a key attached to a long plastic spoon by the barista, just like at a shady gas station in the '80s. It was a disgusting, humiliating experience to be treated like that at a place which I previously considered to be a haven of politeness, professionalism, service, and quality. I was informed this decision was made due to some vandalism and was made in concert with the corporate office. If corporate is aware of this, this is truly appaling, and I will not visit any location knowing the head office feels this was a reasonable decision to make. I do not mind paying a premium for good coffee, and more importantly, a nice environment. This is not an elementary school classroom; it is a business. It is your job to insulate me from whatever previous customers might have done, not rub it in my nose as if I am being punished for others' actions. I do not know, and I do not give a damn who vandalized what. Deal with it and carry on, just like any other respectable business. read more

Since our hotel did not offer good coffee or a breakfast we liked, we ventured to this Starbucks on the way to the office for our coffees and breakfast. I tried the bacon egg and gouda sandwich (mainly for the gouda), which came on a ciabatta roll. My sandwich took the longest out of all of ours, and when they yelled it out, they just said bacon egg sandwich, so I had no idea if it was mine. Wish there was more gouda flavor to it, but unfortunately there isn't. Ample space here though, and great if you need to get some work done. read more

Starbucks is always a great idea. The service here was fast and friendly. The past few times I have been here, they always get my order correct. That's always a definite plus! The location is in a great place and inside is clean. More stars for this review please. read more

My husband enjoyed his coffee. They didn't charge me for a glass full of water and ice (very nice of them). It was clean. The staff was polite and helpful. I would return to this Starbucks coffee again. read more

Starbucks - This was a wonderful Starbucks. Great drinks! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

This happened 15 min ago... Still really annoyed by my experience at this store. I ordered my non fat pumpkin spice latte extra shot medium. I waited and waited and waited. Now people have gotten their coffees and lattes that ordered after me. I go up the barista (who very rude) to ask if any of these that were setting out were what I ordered since they didn't take my name. Rudely she said no!! And went on with her other coffees she was making. I waited some more... I went back up there and asked again if my order was ready. She rolled her eyes and stated no again. Then finally asked what I ordered again... Very rudely. At this point it had been 15-20 min. So I was fed up!!! I told I did not want it any more if had not even been started. She said I had to get back in line to get my money back. I said no I am leaving. She shrugged shoulders and said ok but you paid for the coffee. So I left with no coffee and in a bad mood. Really Starbucks!! I guess I have to go through the drive through to ensure I get my order. Message to the hq sent as well. I doubt anything will ever come it!! read more

Free WiFi. This location is great. They have excellent hot chocolate and a good cappuchino.

I visit this Starbuck's location almost everyday. The baristas and staff are outstanding!!

I am a Starbucks daily user...and today i was "out of my zone" in Turkey Creek. I ordered my usual -Grande cappuccino with 2 raw sugars, which is always subject to "over-milking". I'm used to it and this one was too "wet" so I told the Barrista that it was too wet...she gave it to the Barrista who made it and I think he poured half of it out and it was returned to me. Still too wet for a cappuccino of course. I returned it again and it was remade with attitude -like I'm in N.Y.C. or some snobby "really" place. -Only I'm pretty sure "they" would know how to prepare a cappuccino "there". Anyway, I was not only unimpressed with the product but also with the service. Sad. Have YOU not read "Onward"...pick up a copy...I did. read more

Usually, I use the drive-thru. However, I sometimes go inside. The service has always been friendly, quick, and courteous. It is conveniently located, and they seem to do everything right. I like it. read more

Depends who is working. Slower than average, usually accurate. Better than Cedar Bluff location in all regards.

I come to this location every day! The staff is always friendly and helpful. Most of them have my order memorized! Ha! They work hard, the service is quick and efficient! Love love love this Starbucks. read more

I love Starbucks, especially this one! The employees have my order memorized now. Every time I go through the drive thru I am always told to have a good day and the baristas have conversation with me when they have the time allotted to do so. I appreciate this Starbucks and the service they provide. I highly recommend! read more

They have recently replaced most of the seating with very uncomfortable chairs. Use to go all the time, but don't anymore, because it simply is not a comfortable place to be. read more

Awesome place. (: Feels like a second home. I've been going to this Starbucks since we moved to Tennessee. The cafe is clean and welcoming. It's a great spot to read or study and the employees are so friendly. read more

like many a starbucks this one is located in a very convenient place in Turkey Creek

Our order was taken by your employee Sam while stopping through on a long road trip. He is the kindest Starbucks employee we have ever encountered! We just thought you should know in case raises are in order, and if they aren't, they should be! Also the girl working the coffee counter that made our drinks was super sweet, but I didn't catch her name. Anyways, thanks for the great experience! We will be back. read more

Horrible customer service! Go to the 5 other Starbucks and avoid this one!!! Wrong drink orders, I was told to call 1-800-Starbucks if I had a problem!!! Really?!!!! read more
