I was happy to stumble along on this new Starbucks....had a craving and it had a drive-thru. This one is conveniently located next to the CT Fast Track bus stop so you can grab a coffee drink or something to eat before you hope on that bus on your way into Hartford. Not many parking spaces and the drive-thru if busy could possibly affect the people wanting to go into grab something since you pretty much pull into the place and turn right and drive thru is bam! right there. Got my order prefect Passion Tango Tea half the sweetener. Mom not so happy always complains that they skimp on the berries in her Refresher but hey my order was right....lol! Love me some Starbucks Iced Tea so I'll be back read more

I'm not a regular at any Starbucks, but I was so impressed with how organized this location was. The service is fast, the team is friendly and professional, the store is clean with a good environment! It is very spacious inside. I found the work team to be very efficient and professional. The parking is quite large and easy to get to. Nice atmosphere and I was able to relax and enjoy my coffee before the craziness of the day. read more

Much improved. Staff is more friendly and helpful! My drinks are good for a couple weeks now. The ambiance was pleasant. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Newington, Connecticut

This Starbucks is really bad. My experience. I don't know why but they can never get my order right. Lol. Smh. The drinks/coffee taste varies widely and never taste the same. Usually the same order which I routinely play roulette to see how the taste will be. My experience is well over two years... kinda crazy. But I dislike going here. I honestly expect disappointment, but I do love the drinks :( Do better. read more

Never get my order right , Staff are always so very rude . Went to pick up a mobile order & the girl forgot to give me a drink , slammed the window in my face while i was in the middle of asking for my second drink & never told me they were out of puree for my second drink they just expected me to leave without my second drink . She also proceeded to stand at the window & shrug her arms around asking me why i was still at the window . Very Very Rude . Nasty Attitudes . read more

Love to pick up a iced brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso whenever I can from here. The staff is very friendly and do their very best to keep up with the high volume of customers. I also have to give them five stars because as one of the only coffee shops open during the pandemic, they were consistently MOBBED and you could tell how hard they were working, with a smile on their faces, to keep up with their busy drive thru window. Thanks Fenn Rd Starbucks for always making my mornings better :-) read more

The employees here have always been courteous, kind, and helpful. They get a 4 ONLY because of their parking/drive thru situation. It's a clusterfook! It doesn't matter what time of day, or day of the week. There's always some kind of line leading out of their property, and sometimes out onto the main road. Most of the time, you can't get into the parking lot, because either it's full (limited), or the line to the drive thru blocks the entrance! Today was no exception. I had ordered a bag of their blonde espresso 10 minutes before I got there, to have it ground for espresso. As I got closer (like a block away) I ordered 2 relatively easy coffee drinks. The line went off the property, and by the time I got to the window, at least 10 minutes passed. I waited another 8 minutes (yes, I timed it) for my coffees. I was able to get out of their parking lot, before someone blocked it for people to pass. Horrible planning on the developer's part. The young lady at the window was very apologetic, and very nice. A rather larger gentleman was losing his chit inside. I guess he was stressing at the orders. Lol. All in all, coffee was fantastic! read more

Service is slow for a Starbucks located next to a college campus (ahem CCSU). Staff is exceptionally friendly & attentive. I ordered a donut cake pop & was entranced by the soft texture of my mid-afternoon snack. read more

Starbucks - Doughnut Cake Pop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Newington, Connecticut

This location seemed a bit crowded with workers for a monday night and small traffic, but they made up those fraps n coffees quickly. Was slightly alarmed when I walked in and heard a lot of commotion from behind the counter but as long as there's no hold up and things taste to expectation I'm not complaining! read more

Parking is a bit snug so I wonder how it is during the week when. CCSU is in session BUT THERE IS DRIVE Thru at this location. Now I live for going into starbucks but sometimes it's too cold and you are in a rush so the drive thru is a great option. And this being a new location, their ordering screen actually shows you what you are ordering. So now my complicated order has less a chance to be messed up, especially now that I add steamed almond milk to my order. BUT I have also gone inside to order for a more complete review. Spacious and airy is what first comes to mind. Slightly larger than the Newington location but just as many seats. I feel that this location does not want to be too crowded. There is also a patio, but there was about 10 inches of snow so I will have to be back when CT thaws. It's also near a CT Fast track stop and as I mentioned CCSU, so I know that this location will be doing a solid business years to come. read more

Just got a quick bite to eat with an online order. Picked it up at the drive through on a pretty rough morning, and I have to say that the kindness of the workers made my day. The smiles, the happiness on their faces was contagious. So whoever was working the morning shift at 10 am on May 10th 2022, thank you. You really made my day. And the food was fantastic too! Thank you so much. The parking lot situation can be annoying but I was in and out of the drive through within 6 minutes despite it being quite busy. I will certainly be going to this Starbucks over any other in the area. read more

I like this stand alone location, easy to get in and out, they also have a drive through. I'm not from this area but it was a pleasant surprise when we decided to get a cup of java. read more

Headed in for a quick grande Americano. We waited for 18 minutes for a single coffee. This place needs to redo their process to get coffees out the door. We won't be back anytime soon. Appears like there are LOT of training issues with folks that don't know what they are doing. How can it possibly take 15min for a coffee? Crazy. read more

I love Starbucks, but this location continues to get my order wrong. This morning I order a soy drink on the mobile app but was given whole milk now my stomach is ANGRY!!! read more

Starbucks - Soy ice green tea matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Newington, Connecticut

First off, great staff - the people who work here are genuinely nice and outgoing. The food and coffee - as you'd expect at any of nearly 15,000 Starbucks worldwide - it's all the same. The problem: This has become a haven for some homeless folks - with their luggage and bags piled up inside and outside of the store. I noticed it a couple of weeks ago. Came in and they smelled bad - like really bad BO. I had to leave; nothing is worse than that. And since I've been back, the same homeless folks - charging their devices and using the wifi - with their luggage have returned and as long as this is an issue, I'm going somewhere else. I know Starbucks has a 'we welcome everyone' corporate mantra but this is a bit ridiculous. I'm sure I'm not alone in my frustration and concern. read more

So i can see why this location is a solid 3 Star StarBucks.. it's nothing special but will get you deliciously caffeinated which is really why you go there. When it first opened my husband visited this location a few times and told me it was horrendously mismanaged..well that happens when places are new and the staff is green. Mistakes are made and things tend to take longer than they should. I decided to give it some time and then go see for myself. Let me begin by saying my order these days by 'bucks standards is not complicated: Nariño Cold Brew with heavy cream...sometimes coconut milk if I'm in the mood and honestly if you haven't tried this this way you're missing out. It really takes the nitro to a whole new level. Anyways, the barista who took my order was cold yet efficient, and just seemed as if she had more important things to do than take my order and ring me out for a $3 coffee. Unimpressed. The baristas at the Newington Center location (Rt 175) and the Wethersfield location (Silas Deane) are super friendly and warm and always make you feel like you are the only person in the room. read more

The employee who was working the mobile orders was just plain rude no customer service skills. Messed up my order . I go to Starbucks every day with the same order and I was in Connecticut today and placed my mobile order here. I love going to Starbucks because I always have a great experience and the staff in all the other Starbucks I go to have always been friendly and welcoming. This location was awful. He didn't even acknowledge anyone who approached the counter. I had to ask twice if there was a mobile order ready for me . And when he finally gave me my order I noticed one drink wasn't made correct because it was supposed to have two pumps of white mocha in it but it was pure espresso shots over ice . When I pointed it out to him he just put white mocha in it and gave it back to me with out mixing as if I inconvenienced him to do his job read more

Drive-thru is BY FAR the slowest in the area. If you are tight for time (or don't feel like waiting 20 minutes for a coffee) don't come to this location. Quality is comparable to others. Every time I've come to this location I've waited over 12 minutes in the drive thru. read more

Love this Starbucks, however, I got the nitro cold brew this morning and it is absolutely awful. I was told that it was sweet and needed no cream and sugar. This is very untrue, the nitro cold brew is essential a cup of cold black coffee . I wish I had time to go in and have them remake it or to get something else. I will not order this again . Now I have to start my day with no coffee... this is going to be a long day why starbucks? read more

The wait is always ridiculously long even for a starbucks.. any day of the week Not sure if they need more staff or just more training. Staff is always very pleasant and drinks made correctly. read more

Worst Starbucks ever, the service is very slow. Driving the drive through lane is disgusting as there is always trash on the ground and the trash can over flowing. read more

You get what you pay for, yes Starbucks is more expensive than your other drive through coffee options but my order is always accurate and consistent read more

The only reason I stop at this location is because it is on my way to work otherwise I wouldn't bother. Most of the time, I would say 80%, they never have my food order ready when I order on the mobile app and then they don't offer to compensate me for making me wait, I know this sounds totally obnoxious but I use the mobile app so I don't have to wait and I can just run in and run out on my way to work read more

Store is clean and staff is friendly, but OMG the music. I go in to have a coffee with a friend and we have to talk over 100db hip-hop. Its 7am, not midnight at a club. read more

Worst Starbucks location ever. Slow service. Had to tell the mood in drive through my name 4 times. Waited 22 minutes for a Frappuccino (not made special) with 2 cars in front me. read more

This Starbucks opened not too long ago, so it is still pretty busy. However, the staff is professional, and I've never had anything wrong with any of my orders. The service is prompt in the drive thru. Their menu is well organized and easy to view. I also like using the Starbucks app to order ahead of time and preview the featured new items. This location is perfect for CCSU and West Farms isn't too far either. read more

This is my favorite Starbies to go to before work. I purpose drive an extra 13 mins to go to the drive thru and chat with the baristas (who are always so freaking sweet) while my bfast sandwich is being warmed. There is legitimately a Starbucks right next to where I work and I still go to this one. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Worst Starbucks yet. Trapped in drive through for a simple coffee for over 35 minutes.

It's Starbucks. This specific location however was not built w parking or drive through lines in mind. If drive thru is busy (most mornings), the line cuts into the one in/out of the parking lot and it becomes a one lane exit/entry. Something for the owner/operator to consider fixing read more

My favorite Starbs in the area. In a very convenient area I love to pick up a starbucks after my morning gym sesh. The atmosphere here is the best and the staff is the friendliest. Sometimes I even go out of my way to come to this Starbucks even though there is one closer to my home. read more

It is 4:30 on a Thursday and I stoped in for a quick snack. I am suppressed how dirty this new Starbucks is!!! There are four workers behind the counter. They need to get there workers to clean!!! read more

I always go to this Starbucks because they have a drive through and they're near my campus. They're always super nice and make my drinks great every time. I had to write a review because last time I went I was in the drive through line for 10 minutes and once I got up to the window they not only apologized but gave me a card for a free drink next time. I felt like it wasn't even a long wait but I think that's super nice! read more

One person in line in front of me, five people working. Took ten minutes to get my chai. Asked for one less pump than usual in my chai and watched the girl just pour it into the cup instead of measuring. Then she put it on the drive thru counter. Finally the drive thru girl realized there was an extra order. read more

Usually I love Starbucks, but the last time I went I used the mobile order. Took 15 minutes to get my drink from when I placed my order on the Starbucks app. And... my drink was made completely wrong and was made by a new worker that did not know how to make the drink. There were at least ten cars that went through the drive through and got their drinks before I got mine. Disappointed but now I know not to use mobile order and just go to the drive through. read more

Just went through drive through. Was on break from work to grab a coffee and banana loaf bread. When I opened the bag, the loaf bread was in crumbles, looked like it had been dropped on the floor. Why would this be given to a customer in this condition? I didn't open til I got back, otherwise I would have returned. I get the banana loaf and this is the 1st time receiving it like this. I would think whomever handled it would know it is not up to standards. I don't know what this piece went through as I cannot eat it. It did not crumble on my drive back as I always place it by itself on the seat next to me. read more
