This place was so loud! Why was it this busy on a Thursday afternoon? I thought I was able to get some work done on my day off while sipping my pumpkin spice latte but I found it difficult to concentrate. The music was loud. People were loud. Even the barista was loud with her equipment. Sigh. I didn't actually expect a library atmosphere but I didn't think it'd be this bad. And now, 6 hrs after drinking that latte and my stomach is still upset. Not to mention someone hit my car in the parking lot outside when I was leaving. I guess this place is a no go for me. read more

This was by far the worst Starbucks I have ever had the displeasure of visiting. My girlfriend and I stopped in just after opening at 6 a.m. while on a weekend trip to Manchester for breakfast and some large, caffeinated beverages. The only other customer in the restaurant was seated at a table, already served and reading the newspaper. With two employees behind the counter we imagined that we would be back on the road in no time. That was to be a pipe dream. Each of us ordered a food item and a hot drink. My girlfriend went first, ordering her favorite pumpkin spice latte in the largest available size. Not long into our day she ended up dumping out her expensive drink, telling me that it didn't taste anything remotely like something fit for human consumption, let alone like a PSL. I ordered just after she did--a latte and a croissant. The employees seemed far more interested in their conversation than with preparing our order, and after handing me my food, the barista smiled and wished us a good day. "Excuse me," I asked, "but do you have my latte?" Her response: "What latte?" And so, after explaining to her that I had, just minutes ago, paid for a latte, I waited another ten minutes for her to complete my order. Next time, we're going to the Dunkin Donuts down the street. read more

This place is awesome I've been coming here for years now and I'm grateful we even have a Starbucks in Manchester because otherwise it's loaded with weak, watered down Dunkin's. I see a lot of reviews complaining of shortages and long wait times and it's completely annoying. Being a former barista knowing how long it takes to craft these customers' "special drinks" I wish people would realize it takes time to make Frappuccino's, steam milks, pull shots( especially when they're asking for a lot), etc especially when you have large orders and can't be bothered to come inside = naturally a wait time per car. It's CLEAR that shortages are due to Covid AND TikTok so people really need to begin to understand that.. I mean it's been this way everywhere for awhile now. I laugh as I drive around back past the drive thru and as I'm going around the building to park and physically go inside and only have no more than a 10 minute wait on a busy day I can count 15 cars average. Despite the petty and entitled reviews these guys will always have my business read more

I can't tell if the coffee here tasted better than other Starbucks' locations because (a) they actually had dark roast brewing, and I love it when I hit a dark roast day, (b) I was drinking it in Manchester, and was surprised to have coffee I didn't need to dilute with milk and sugar, (c) I hadn't had coffee in the morning and was like a coke head in need of a fix, or (d) everyone being so nice in NH is just putting me into a contented delusional haze. Whatever it was... hooray! read more

Absolutely terrible! I went in to order a drink. I looked at the menu and made my choice. I waited about 5 minutes to be helped. Not too bad in my opinion. I ordered and paid for my drink. After about 10 minutes, I'm then notified they no longer offer what I ordered. That's odd. I just paid for it!! This same situation happened to me at the North Conway store. This tells me Starbucks has NO inventory controls, or perhaps it's something else. I reached out to corporate and never got an answer back or even an acknowledgement of the issue. I go to Aroma Joe's now. Very happy with them. read more

I am traveling around the country and have been visiting a lot of Starbucks. I am not sure if its a regional thing but the customer service was awful. I think a vending machine would have offered better service. There was no eye contact or acknowledgment that the order was heard and as a result the order was incorrect. In addition a customer dropped their xlarge fruit beverage and it covered a significant portion of the floor and customers. No acknowledgment or offers to help clean up the mess were made. read more

The perfect retail experience happens when you hardly need to wait to sip your favorite drink and you hardly notice anything but smiles from those around you. Everything else will just dissolve into memory. The day after hurricane Irene I stopped in to grab some coffee. Where people had been cooped up inside the day before, the staff at this location handled the busy atmosphere so smoothly you hardly noticed the crowd. One star goes to the barista who took my money. She was friendly and attentive and we talked about eyeglasses for three minutes straight. She talked to everyone in much the same way except not about eyewear. Second star goes to the woman who made my frappucino. She knew exactly what affogato style meant (a shot of espresso on top). Since she kept moving, nobody had to wait around. Stars go to the rest of the customers, who were all just happy to be there. read more

Drink was a bit watered down. Not the first I have experienced from a Starbucks before next time I will ask it be redone. Nice friendly service however read more

Consistent product quality over the five years I have been going here. Drive thru service has declined markedly in speed over past year, not sure why. Awkward drive- thru entrance includes on occasion dodging tractor trailers parked to service Papa Ginos next door along back of building. Love the soymilk lattes and spinach wraps. read more

The staff were rude. Drinks were not made correctly and when asked about it was given an attitude. Very slow service.

This location has a drive through and the person in the car in front of me paid for all of our drinks - thank you! Green iced tea lemonade is very good - I would highly recommend :) read more

Waiting for the day another Starbucks opens up in the area because this one is just awful. Their drive thru experience is a disaster; if you're trying to get coffee from 6-8am just avoid it completely or you'll be stuck in line for 20-25 minutes. On top of that- they're always out of things! One time they had no water bottle water. Okay. Another time, the croissants. This morning, I tried to order the breakfast wrap that I get almost everyday... they told me they were out. I asked for a different bfast sandwich but they were out of that too. He said the only breakfast they had available today was the new steak wrap. Seriously?! Unacceptable read more

So no public restroom since March. When I pointed out that other Starbucks have public restrooms open, the woman who was making orders pulled down her mask by pinching the front of it with the fingers of her right hand to reply that, "There's a lot of inconsistency but we're trying to follow policy." She then put her mask back up and continued to use those same hands to prepare someone's order, including putting whipped cream on the order. I'm pretty sure that's not policy. I would rather the employees honor policy while making beverages. There is actually no good reason to not allow patrons to use your restroom. read more

I am here on a Saturday morning and the cashier was so helpful! She recommended the new egg white protein duo and the iced blonde americano with vanilla. Both so good, and she was so nice to deal with me as I was taking a while to figure out what to get. Bigger space and good for doing some work. read more

The lines here have been super crazy as of late. Despite that, the staff is always friendly and clearly working as fast and efficiently as they can under crazy pressure. I'm willing to wait because my order is always right and the service is always awesome. read more

Super nice workers that were very patient and helpful since it was my first time ordering. Highly recommend !!

As a former Starbucks partner I was disappointed to see the lack of customer engagement at this particular store (which is something Starbucks prides themselves on and strives for). I am lactose-intolerant so I get soy and one time they made my drink with 2% instead. No big deal. I had originally gone through their drive-thru but parked my car and went inside to see if they would remake it for me. They did but they girl who remade my drink was more annoyed than happy to remake my simple iced soy chai (a drink that literally takes 10 seconds to make)...I didn't appreciate the attitude and the lack of an apology for getting it wrong the first time. The service is moderate, I've been stuck at the drive-thru window for long waits before. It's disappointing because this store being the only one in Manchester has great potential, they just need to put some passion into their work. Yes I know its Starbucks and it's "just coffee" but the employees need to be models for what their company is striving for. People pay the extra price for Starbucks for the full experience.... read more

Very disappointed today. I always only get either a tall or grande but today since it opened back up after their construction I decided to get a vente which I never finish and I had received my coffee with spoiled milk... read more

Terrible, terrible experience! In the drive through, as the tray was being handed it broke spilling on me and my car! Not even an apology. Called their customer service line and more than a week later, I have not heard back. Unbelievable how poorly this was handled. No follow through, and no one is accountable or empowered to solve anything. read more

Bedford is the better location people wise however I find this locations coffee hotter and tastier. This location though, I find, other than 2-3 people max who work at this location are downright impolite. Today, was no different on that front. Don't be upset with us because the half and half is out by the self serve area. That's on the Starbucks. Not even a thank you for bringing it over to the barista and then taking it back to the self service area. A thank you goes a long way. Try it sometime! read more

This Starbucks is a joke. Slow and out of stuff all the time (I'm not talking specialty items, I'm talking iced coffee). Order ahead is usually off and when it is on I've come in to no drink. Get your act together! read more

This is by far the worst..the slowest starbucks in the world

Very very poor service today. 15 mins for a coffee while I watched everyone who was behind me get theirs. The barista was rude and clearly overwhelmed. They felt understaffed to handle anything for than one customer. I come to this Starbucks often because it's the only one by my house. They have gone downhill over the years. read more

I don't normally write reviews unless the establishment is abysmal. Today I stopped to get a black iced coffee. I asked for it black, no sweetener or creamer. The drive through worker even confirmed it. After waiting longer than we should have to get through the drive through line. They give me the coffee, my girlfriend who's driving pulls away. I take a sip and it's sweetened. This wouldn't normally drive me to write a review, but this is the THIRD time this has happened at this particular location. This maybe happens 1/50 times at other Starbucks locations. So the question I'm stuck asking myself is 'what breeds such incompetence at this particular location?' It could be poor education in the Manchester area, it could be poor training among management, it could be all the chemicals Obama put in the water to dumb people down so they don't realize he's colluding with the cloud people for total world domination. Eat mushrooms and open up your mind. 9/11 was an inside job. But seriously, fuck this place. Will never return to this location again. read more

This is a fantastic Starbucks! People are friendly and energetic and seem to genuinely enjoy what they do. Usually has good jazz playing in the mornings. The parking situation can be abysmal at times but it's worth searching for a spot or parking by Aldi's. It's fun to people watch here too. Between the laptop hobbits and business people cutting deals over lattes the clientele can get interesting. Order a coffee, pull up a chair and enjoy the show! read more

I love Starbucks however this location needs some work. There are always 6 or more employees working when I stop in on my way to work at least 2-3 times a week and there is always a wait. I'm not sure why but you need to allow yourself extra time or you will be late to work . The drive through line always has at least 10 cars waiting and there is a line inside as well. None of the employees seem to have any urgency to move quickly. It's very frustrating! read more

Love Starbucks coffee, good and strong. The staff here is great too! A great place to relax with a book or do a little work away from home.

Typical Starbucks - clean, fast, orderly. Asked about room for cream when I ordered, which not all Starbucks do, so that's a plus. Got a dark roast though, which tasted a little on the light side. Not the end of the world. read more

Just left here and it took 25 minutes to get my drink and I was only the 3rd person in line. Speed is not their strong suit and the sense of urgency didn't pick up once the line got longer and wrapped around the island divider. I ordered my drink specifically saying what I wanted and I still ended up with it being wrong. After 25 minutes! This one needs to do better especially with it having a drive thru and being on a main road. Won't be back to this location. read more

This is a very average Starbucks location. The drive thru entrance is inaccessible when you enter the main parking lot. Having a drive thru at all is a bonus, but the service was on the slow side. I have gone inside once for my coffee. The employee was friendly and took a reasonable amount of time to make my order. Both times my iced coffee with caramel was delicious. read more

I had a craving for a specialty drink I like from Starbucks & had to stop by while I was in the area. Was as good as I remember them being (haven't had Starbucks coffee of any kind since moving from Ca.). The only thing is there was to much foam for my liking (I preffer no foam for the price of the drink's-but thats just me). read more

We go here several times per week and always receive great service. The staff is always happy, they know who we are and how we like our drinks, they always start conversations with us and they seem very cheery and happy. The coffee is always perfect and the pastries are yummy. read more

Overpriced - Check Slow service - check Pretentious staff and customers - check Half decent coffee - check I don't get it. Much better alternatives! read more

I go to Starbucks frequently and this location is by far the worst. The drinks are usually wrong and they are unbelievably slow. Definitely try to find another location. read more

So I go to Starbucks often, and normally its great but today, it was deplorable. We ordered two Frappuccino's, and both were incredibly watered down, and the Smores Frappe was with just a small layer of whipped cream. The barista also unapologetically didn't take our 'free reward', as she had scanned the order already, causing it to be an unpredicted price. read more

I love Starbucks dark roast coffee. It's actually strong. A small coffee costs $2 and trust me they are a good size; much bigger and better than Dunks. I love this Starbucks for it's drive-thru. It's fast and everyone is always super nice. read more

Music blasted too loud for cafe, almost felt like dance club atmosphere. Music in cafe supposed to be background music to facilitate discussions and Not the focal point of overall experience. read more

This is my favorite Starbucks. It's currently their only store in Manchester. I wish they had more locations in this city. If they ever opened other stores in Manchester I would still patronize this store, because I like their staff. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The service is fast. I appreciate how they take the time to know my name and get to know me and other regular customers. It's little things like that that make me feel more welcome there than at other coffee shops around town. The coffee and food are both great. The free Wi-Fi service is excellent. It's fast and doesn't drop your connection. The store is larger than most Starbucks I've visited. There are enough tables and seating to accommodate individuals or small groups. Sometimes I work from there for several hours at a time, and the staff has always made me feel welcome. read more

Stopped in last night,served by a girl named Lauren, her service was fantastic,such a sweetheart, would love to see her serve me again!

Across from work ... East fast and exceptional ... They know my name and if I was more consistent with my ordering they would have it ready for me when I walked in. ...And they know there coffee read more
