Starbucks - This is me drinking a drink from Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McHenry, Illinois

The Starbucks location has no queue at the moment for the drive-through, there's about two cars... And it's also several in the parking lot, see the front is a little empty. It's nice and quiet here. Nice soft music, and employees busy completing orders. Its clean neat and tidy in here and I see many options available for food in the fridge. read more

Everything is good. We usually get Americano with steamed milk and my wife ordered extra dry cappuccino, both usually made by baristas with no mistakes. read more

went for coffee Noise Level - Low Ambiance - fair. Invenotry- there are plenty of cups and bottles avaible. they also have clearance section. but with clearance section purchase they refused to use my stars. but still a good deal. Seating space- Plenty. Order- Placing order was not a problem. But they were taking forever to make drinks for everyone. there were 10 people in the store and all 10 of us were waiting for our drinks and everyone had one drink order messed up. definetly shows that they are not focused and need more training. Not sorry for anything. I ordered Hot drink and they gave me iced drink. they Did remake my hot coffee though. Overall experience- Rough read more

Ordered the Nitro Cold brew. Friendly greeting and service. I will visit this location again read more

Good sized location with a drive thru. Music is a bit loud and can be heard sometimes on conference calls. Lots of seating and ample power outlets for those looking to work from here. Parking can be tough as the lot is shared by a few other restaurants. Great staff. read more

Best Starbucks!!! They always do such a good job! Thanks ;) always a macchiato or iced expressi

My husband and I have been to different Starbucks and two have tried to charge on two separate occasions! We are not asking for extra base! We will not be paying an additional $1 just because we are requesting LIGHT WATER NO ICE! Water is inexpensive and that is the liquid of choice that we choose! read more

Awful communication. As I pulled up to order at the drive through a young lady took my order but as I was confused on a certain item she gave me attitude for no reason. I simply was just confused on my daughters drink and don't know why the young lady was giving attitude for not knowing that a small drink was considered "tall" that makes no sense. As a father I hope that young lady learns to respect her elders. I can't recall the name of the woman because I didn't get a good look at the name tag but she was blonde and had her hair in a ponytail braid type thing and very clearly uptight over a simple misunderstanding. read more

Way way way too loud in this place. Employees shouting, music played to loud, not a good networking place. Coffee is par but better just getting it to go. read more

The people are always very kind. And it's not their fault but has anyone else noticed that the blueberry muffins are NOT the same ones they used to have? I mean, they used to be light, larger and better. I've noticed this with other food places (Panda Express for an example). Same price too. Disappointed. read more

We had a number of hours to kill between business meetings and visiting friends, so we stopped into this Starbucks and promptly took over their oversized chairs for about three hours. We only purchased one drink each and were lucky enough that it wasn't a busy day. We didn't need to move and we weren't given any dirty looks for squatting there. I ended up getting a lot of work done and reading a couple chapters from a book I've been meaning to finish. The employees were friendly, our drink order came out quickly, and I enjoyed my Chai Soy Latte. read more

Starbucks - chai tea latte iced - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McHenry, Illinois

Their store hours posted are until 10pm. In reality, they are only open until 9pm. It's been this way since last summer, or maybe even before that, and they haven't changed it online. Too bad because our group had to seek a different place to meet. Our group was there having an informal meeting, and the night shift people in a rude tone told us they close at 9pm, like 3 times. Then our party went outside to finish our conversation prior to leaving. The Starbucks workers came out of the store to lock up, and a younger woman approached us stating in a rude tone we couldn't stand in front of Starbucks, and needed to be 10 feet away from their door because of their rules. Besides this, several of the baristas are friendly and make our drinks and our order are spot on. However, the cleanliness of that store at times is sub par. Tables with sugar crystals, food crumbs and wet, sticky drink spots on the table. Gender neutral bathrooms? Not a fan. I have used them several times at this location and elsewhere where bathrooms are not designated. Ladies, heads up...do yourself a favor and check the toilet seat before you sit. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McHenry, Illinois

Excellent customer service!!! Gerald was absolutely amazing! He truly goes above and beyond. Thanks again!!!

Since the +1 was doing an internship in town, we'd frequent this location for some post-dinner coffee and conversation. (True story: we had our first "date" here, and it lasted 3 hours.) Also, because I don't drink coffee made at my mom's place due to the hard water, I only get coffee here when I want it. So, this Starbucks is one I've divided about 1/3 of my S'bux experience to. And, really, we frequent the chain so much that I've joked we need to purchase stock. Normally you can get your drinks fast, but depending on the baristas working, it can get slow. In my experience it's not due to customer volume; rather, it's the attentiveness and work ethic of the barista(s). I went in a few days ago, and the only barista behind the station NOT doing anything productive was socializing with a customer from over the counter. (There was another barista who had his hands full changing out coffees and cleaning equipment.) I stood there...and stood there...when she finally stopped her conversation to ask what I wanted. Then she had HIM get my coffee (which meant stopping what he was doing) and ring me up as she resumed her conversation. To me, that was rude all the way around. Still, not an unusual occurrence from my experiences. I'm probably going to get chastised for this, but in general I find the female baristas at this location are less customer-service friendly and have a poorer work ethic than the males. Very, very weird. There is usually ONLY Half + Half (if any) offered at the lone condiment counter. On most of my visits when I ask them to add Skim, the baristas pour it into a plastic "shot" cup and hand that over with the coffee. (I brought this up when we were at the Streets of Woodfield S'bux yesterday and the barista there thought that was "weird"). I wonder if it's too much trouble to pour in the skim, or if they think it's somehow more efficient from the separate shot glass. Still, I'm not a fan of wasting plastic for naught. This evening when I went in and asked for skim in my coffee, the (male) barista poured it right into the cup. No fuss, no muss, and I was out in a jiffy. Overall it's a large enough to sit down and do work or meet up with friends, but depending on who's working, don't necessarily expect speedy service. read more

Average location! Bathroom is a little dirty! Friendly staff and they can make my drinks correctly. That's a that matters! This is a super busy location and they do get a lot of business. They just need a drive thru. read more

A small place at the end of a strip mall that has everything you would expect from a Starbucks. The staff was friendly, the bathrooms clean, and the wifi copious. I was there on a Tuesday afternoon and it was very crowded. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - McHenry, Illinois

See all

This location needs more food boxes all the Starbucks has many to choose from and this one has three.

The only thing that would improve this Starbucks would be a drive-thru honestly. Every staff member I have encountered has been kind and friendly, even when business is hectic. My order is not the easiest but they have never gotten it wrong, personally. Friends of mine have received the incorrect order/poorly made beverages though, which did affect my rating. There is plenty of seating including: tables with chairs, couches, and even outdoor seating accompanied with umbrellas. A variety of music plays which is lovely since you will never hear the same song twice. Free Wi-Fi is always a plus! The atmosphere is great for coffee dates with close friends, writing a paper or doing research for school, or picking up an order on your way to/from work. Service, staff, and surroundings are all great at the Starbucks in McHenry! read more

Seriously the rudest Starbucks I've ever dealt with. My two nieces went in to get coffee on the day it was buy one get one free. The place was of course packed. They stood waiting for their coffee for over 45 mins. When asked why it was taking so long they were told to be patient. People that came in 30 mins after were getting their coffee and leaving before them. The people making coffee were so rude and gave constant attitude. read more

This Starbucks is a joke. Not even open for their posted hours. Arrived at 9:45 (15 mins before their posted hours of closing) and a guy who I assume closed, walked out, didn't say a word to me, and got in his car. The drive thru was still lit up like a Christmas tree but drive around and its completely dark inside, not that you can even see that from the street. I like Starbucks drinks but I'll just wait until I'm near the Crystal Lake locations to get a drink. I won't be returning to this location. read more

I love this location. I've had so many issues at the Volo location making my drink wrong on a daily basis, that, even though Volo is closer and has a drive thru, I'd rather drive to Mchenry. My friendly baristas know me by face and have my drink ready promptly. Always a great conversation while I wait! When they ask my husband and I for a name for our cups, we like to give them names of famous (or infamous) couples. But my favorite thus far, is the barista who asked for a name for my cup and I told her "surprise me" - wrote "Beautiful" on my cup. I smiled all the way home. read more

The McHenry, IL store is the worst service ever! The specific problem is shamefully the manager "Megan". She constantly messes up my drink order without apology & has even blamed me for ordering wrong. Then she throws (not tosses or place) the cup in the sink behind the counter! I can be understanding and patient with a wrong drink. However, worst of all is her rude attitude! This should be addressed because she is an embarrassment to the Starbucks experience!! I cannot believe that she's the manager by the way she treats customers...never a hello, thanks, or even a smile! I hope corporate addresses this seriously. I am a gold card member who frequents Starbucks nationwide. I'd fire her! There are plenty of gracious people desperately seeking employment!! read more

I've only dealt with the drive thru before but the employees are pretty rude. I usually order and pay with the app beforehand and the employee taking my order always has a noticeable sarcastic attitude when I tell them that. On numerous occasions my drinks haven't been good. I ordered a Java chip frappuccino and it had ZERO Java chips, a raspberry mocha frappuccino that was black with no raspberry flavor. The store was good about making up for ruining the drinks, but the drinks always taste a little off. read more

The service here is pretty much always subpar. I have had multiple drinks spill on my clothes because the baristas don't close the lids all the way. Today, the manager of this location cut me off for every drink that I ordered and I ended up getting something that I couldn't even drink (lactose intolerant) because she was not listening and did not repeat my order back to me. She then cut me off again before I was finished. When I drove up to the window she was rude and visibly unhappy when I asked her for an additional food item. It seems that this location will sacrifice accuracy and customer service just to get cars out of the drive thru. I used to get coffee here every day but I will no longer be using this location. read more

There hours say they are open till 9pm get in the drive thru at 8:33pm and they are rude when saying they close at 8:30 yet online says there are open till 9pm. Will be calling corporate to make a complaint read more

I'd say this is your typical Starbucks but...everyone at this location is always upbeat and happy here. Seriously. And not that overbearing happy - just in general happy. Never had a bad drink here, fast and friendly. And that -- makes a difference! read more

as starbucks go, this is pretty much what i would expect from a starbucks located right outside a shopping center. it's tiny. it's got probably no more than 8 tables. a small prep station/cash register area. bathrooms. and now you've had the tour. the baristas were all super nice. they were engaging and nice. they joked with my husband because he couldn't figure out what he wanted. he doesn't really go to starbucks. that's more my jam, so he was just along for the ride. he also is a terrible decision maker, so he held up production changing his mind about 24 times. other people find it cute the first time. *other* people.... find it cute..... the *first* time. .... so anyway. we got our cofffee. had a chat. and went on living our lives. very typical starbucks situation happening in mchenry. read more

First and last time I will visit this dirty location. I say dirty because the lady tried selling me bakery items out of the display case (cake pop and muffin) with multiple flies landing on the food!! I told her that I would prefer something fresh as there are flies landing on the food. She stated that it "it's difficult to keep them out." Really??? Then don't sell the food. Kill the gosh darn flies and provide untainted items. The cake pop and muffin was for my son and there's no way in hell I would feed him or pay for food that flies were eating and shi**ing on. The worst part is, she didn't even attempt to remove the flies from the display case, and guaranteed she continued to sell the items that the flies had landed on. Plus, the store itself is just creepy. Very dark wood and furniture. No one likes to clean apparently. The tables were not cleaned, there were multiple dried rings from the previous inhabitants. Crumbs all over the tables and floors. What a shi**y experience. I'm happy to take the trip to Conscious Cup in Crystal Lake. Do people even take pride in their work ethic anymore??? read more

Megan rocks and always happy to see me. Great place. Sometimes my drink is made before I even walk in.

Doesn't even deserve one star. Horrible/grouchy workers. After I ordered(venti ice water with 3 scoops of matcha), they proceeded to tell me that my drink was no where near as healthy as I thought it was. They said it had just as much sugar as a mountain dew. Let me remind you, matcha powder should not have sugar added into it. At this point I was about ready to change my order or just leave because I was so turned off. And to top it off they messed up my drink order. It should have been a venti, but they gave me a grande. They fixed it by pouring it into a venti cup and adding only ice to raise the level of my drink. Over all the workers were very rude and didnt respect my order of choice and extremely unprofessional. Also, they were yelling back and fourth at each other while people are there doing business meetings and working. Will not be going back. read more

I've really tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt, but after four bad experiences, I'm giving up. The service is always rushed and rude, which is hard when I am with kids who take some time to figure out what they want. I've had one barista loudly sigh over the intercom and say to a coworker "yeah, I know, she's taking forever", I think she was trying to cover the microphone and thought everyone in the car wouldn't hear? Once I got home, I noticed my drink tasted awful. As in, it tasted completely different and they must have added the wrong syrups, it tasted nothing like how it was supposed to. I get this drink often, and I can understand a little bit of deviation, but this wasn't even in the same realm. The drinks here tend to not be the greatest in general, so I wasn't expecting anything amazing but this was really far out there. The other drinks were also messed up, again, some sort of recipe mess up or something. After spending $30, I wasn't too happy. The bar here has never been met compared to the other Starbucks around. This is the last time I will go there. read more
