Proof of purchase!!
Bob W.

Lots of reasons to like and hate Starbucks. My reason for hate today is for the second time I asked for just water. I drop hundreds of dollars at The Bucks. The first time I was under thirsty duress so I succumbed to this "Karen's" demand that I had to buy something to get a free water. She told me I had to have my receipt from any store for the same day. Then a month later, the same "Karen" demanded to see my receipt to make sure it was from " the same day." "Karen" proceeded to tell me it was their corporate policy that the receipt while it was the same day, "had to be from the same store." Cheap biscuits or sons of fatherless children. Starbucks, why are you so cheap when you are making millions??

This is a great Starbucks. It's in the same parking lot as Gelson's so there's plenty of easy free parking. Huge plus. It has a modern feel. Nice layout. Super nice staff. Hey, it's a Starbucks, so you already know what they have, but this is a good one. There is plenty of seating indoors and out, clean, nice staff. Love it! It closes at 8:00 PM. Wish it were open later.

Pretty stylish warm earthy tones Starbucks with a friendly crew of Baristas, Shift Leads and Managers. This location stays busy in the Gelsons shopping plaza off Van Nuys Blvd and Milbank St, but has tons of room to spread out including high, long and low tables, a lounge area near the front and some outdoor seating as well. If you order online your drink can get buried among the masses so definitely check the labels. Parking is pretty easy in a huge shared lot... Not a Drive Thru location, but great health and safety practices in place not to mention that classic free Wi-Fi.

Peach/green iced tea, meh, had way better at a different location.  Don't know what they're doing here!

Pretty big location, modern decor, not the cleanest and with no outdoor seating. There's a big, buys parking lot near by! This location is a tad too busy for me especially during Covid or maybe I'm not used to Starbucks since we didn't visit a location in about a year or so. We needed to kill some time in this shopping here recently and my husband wanted to get us some refreshing Peach/Green Iced Tea he got in a downtown location a couple of weeks ago that we enjoyed. At the register we were asked if we want syrup in it. Too many questions nowadays, too many decisions! It's a chain, how about making it the same way everywhere? We mentioned we had one recently and they said they changed it and they make it with no syrup. We got it without syrup. Paid, got it, tried it and it was bitter and tasted like green tea too much! We went back and asked for the syrup, they have us a tad in a cup, we mixed it, still it didn't taste nearly as good as the SAME tea we got in downtown at Starbuck! Still bitter, too much green tea, not enough peach. It lacked that nice peach flavor, light and refreshing! I didn't love the customer service either, if you have to DYI then why do I go out and pay for things? This experience will keep me away from this chain for a long time now since they can't get it together to make their tea the same way everywhere!

I recommend to mobile order, it is a pretty busy Starbucks. So always be kind to your barista (:

I absolutely love this location! I went in today to start off my long weekend and Bridgette & Rosaline were so sweet and gave awesome recommendations! I'll definitely be back for the cleanliness, and amazing customer service

Me. What I felt after the incident
Andersson M.

The barista proceeded to put his finger in my drink after I asked a question about the temperature. I was left with no words... I didn't even want a refund just wanted out of the building.

Why do I even pay for a grande if they're giving me tall portions? What if I would've ordered a tall would they give me a shot? This is the only location that does this. It's not an iced shaken espresso it's a latte. I have no problem with my portions at other locations. Will not be coming back. Waste of money.

There was a line out the door when we went. Parking isn't the best. We had to find a spot in one of the residential areas nearby.

I really like the Chagaccino with oatmilk. It was fantastic in flavor and smooth. The first drink was nothing like it. They said someone probably took mine but my receipt was attached to the first drink. Ugh! I'm so glad the offered to remake mine. Since it was my first time here I would know what my drink was supposed to taste like and I have also never ordered a Chagaccino before. I don't think my review would have been as favorable. I like the atmosphere. It is funny and cute. I hope I can come back soon but it is far from my house to make this every day. Street parking. There is also pay for parking lot in back. I don't know if they validate since I stayed on street. Otherwise it is normally $3 every 15 minutes.

The girl at the register asked me if I've had it before- I guess people order it without realizing it's made with coconut water (?)- I said I've had it at a different coffee shop and really liked it. It comes topped with a cloud of matcha cream. I like that it's refreshing without being overly sweet. That being said, a 12oz cup was $8 not including tip. The prices felt pretty steep if I'm being totally honest. The drink was delicious but this isn't a place I'd order from on a regular basis (in this economy?!). Overall, it was a nice, refreshing treat. The ambiance is lovely- they have windows that open up all around the shop and peek over an outdoor seating area. Super cute vibe overall.

"Sunday, Monday, HAPPY DAYS!…read more Tuesday, Wednesday, HAPPY DAYS! Thursday, Friday, HAPPY DAYS! Saturday, what a day..." Don't forget about Sunday! Open 7 days a week in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles on Ventura Blvd between Cedros Avenue and Van Nuys Blvd. You can enjoy a plethora of options including gluten free and vegan ones from their milkshakes to their coffees, teas to ice creams, churros (the star of the show, of course) and everything in-between! For ice cream their Vegan Salted Caramel & Chocolate Ice Cream is incredible, my fav and first choice - but don't sleep on their Vegan Coconut Vanilla Ice Cream or Vegan Coconut Chocolate Ice Cream. Classic dairy flavors include: Cookies & Cream Ice Cream, Dulce De Leche Ice Cream and Vanilla. Ordering inside is easy peasy at the counter, but H.D.C. does use third party apps like UberEats/Postmates for pickup/carryout as well as delivery. I pop in now and then and most recently after dinner I had a nice post meal treat of churros to go. Water at their water and utensils area with beverage enhancers: sugar, stirrers, etc. Churro Ice Cream sandwich is incredible - best if you can enjoy it right away though I have order deliver twice this year just from craving that Vegan Salted Caramel between two of their delicious churro "bun" - best invention ever! Non dairy milkshakes all day! Though I rarely indulge in those extra decadent and rich dessert beverages - highly recommend you do. Seating inside is cool cozy but warm and chic. You can enjoy things outside as well with some seating. Prices are thoughtful, as is Happy Days Cafe. Open to all from PM to AM, see days for specific hours and times. Come out to Happy Days and have yourselves a hopping good time!!

The main thing that stands out here is their 1987 coffee roaster which is the center piece of the cafe. They roast various single origin beans on a daily basis, so you know you can purchase some fresh coffee beans here. If you need your beans grounded, they do grind it for you depending on your brewing method. They have beans of light roast, medium roast and dark roast and sell by various weights for a very reasonable price. They also sell various tea leaves, baked goods (croissant, muffin, scones, bagel, Danish, coffee cake, Dessert Therapy cookies, and merchs. They also have a seasonable menu that changes. When I went, it was the Sakura season menu. Staff were all friendly and were very willing to answer any questions regarding the menu. Please note, the base coffee blend for each day varies and rotates on a daily basis For my visit, I tried ... 1. Buttered Coffee (4.5/5) The base coffee for the day was the Peru single origin, which was well-balanced; slightly sweet with a hint of tartness and nuttiness. They then add a chunk of butter into the coffee, which helps cut some of the acidity, but also is supposed to enhance the caffeine effect and give you additional energy from the fat. It does leave a layer of fat/oiliness so if you are not a fan of that, then this may not be for you. The butter did give it a subtle buttery flavor, which I personally liked. 2. Matcha with Sakura Cold Foam (4/5) The matcha was blended smoothly and was not grassy at all. The Sakura cold foam didn't really taste like Sakura (been to Japan, so know what real Sakura flavor should taste like), but instead, just tasted floral. 3. Columbia Supremo Whole Beans Full body and aromatic. Good for those who like to drink black coffee 4. Guatemala Huehuetenango Whole Beans: Crisp, acidic and a hint of nuttiness Glad I found this local roaster where I'll definitely be coming back to get some more fresh beans.
