    This Starbucks has been here for a few years, but it was my first visit. It won't be my last. First off, it's a pretty large location to be situated downtown Norfolk. They have lots of seating and a good amount of space to wait on your food and/or beverage. The staff is super nice. I got my new fave - Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai...check it out. It's perfect for those who don't really care for the dairy (or dairy is not your friend if you catch what I'm saying). And I just learned you can get it hot! I'll have to try that out at another store!! The drink is sooo good, the customer in front of me ordered one and I got stopped on my way out to inquire what foaming goodness I had in my hand. Go try it today!!

    I started my visit to Norfolk, VA with morning work at this Starbucks location. This Starbucks has a little different vibe. It has all the standard Starbucky faire that I love (coffee, crappy food, clean store, good wifi). The music was more upbeat and louder than I was expecting. Not so loud that you cannot talk. People could hear it through the phone. I saw a several people vibing along to the beats while waiting for their order. There were a bunch of small tables that were good for one person to get some work done, enjoy a coffee, or have a conversation. There were a few larger tables. There is some kind of enclosed room that I have not seen before at a Starbucks. Can that be used / rented for a meeting ? + This location had some nice touches. The normal chalk sign had a daily affirmation (I appreciate a little positivity). And there were a few house plants throughout the location. A nice addition to the familiar Starbucks look. - Unfortunately the service was painfully slow, perhaps new staff. It took a long time to get a black coffee and heated scone.

    This is the only location in the area after the one in the mall closed. This is my first time at this location. There was no line and the service teally quick

    I know, I know. 'Why are you reviewing Starbucks.. there's one on every corner, and they're all the same.' But that's just it, they're not. This one has far more character and charm than most, and I'm not afraid to write about it. Call me basic. I. Don't. Frikkin. Care! Let me start off with the artwork inside. I love the deep blue maritime themed canvas, very fitting for Norfolk. It's also great to see Starbucks Reserve beans being sold at this location too, with the S.R clover blend available on the menu also. S.R is Starbucks's answer to a premium, gourmet coffee experience - sadly the nearest Reserve is in D.C. The staff in here are also great. Love my little chalk board lassie, a lot of effort goes in to those aesthetically appealing chalk boards folks! Whenever I'm in here, they don't mind having a chat and getting to know they're customers - when they're not busy, of course. That for me separates this Starbucks from others. It's clean, stocked up, well looked after and is a pleasure to relax in. It does get busy at times. But there is plenty of space to sit, with nooks and crannies to keep to yourself when you've got some work to do, or there's the community tables or the meeting room, away from the hustle and bustle - choose where you want to pull your laptop out to work, sit and sip. All that's missing at this location is the Nitro Cold Brew - but no biggie - that's why I go to Vessel Craft and keep it local.

    Yum!!

    I came here with my coworkers and wasn't sure what to order since I just wanted a cold coffee drink. The barista was super nice and recommended a hazelnut latte with sweet cream cold foam on top and it was amazing. I know I'm late to the game with cold foam drinks, but she wasn't judgmental at all and I'm glad she recommended this to me because it was life changing and now every time I see a Starbucks at an airport or around my place, I order this drink. Most Starbucks employees are generally friendly and nice, and this one was great because the employee really went out of her way to be patient with me and made sure I enjoyed my drink :)

    What I received from the last remake ( I didn't drink out of this either)

    Very disappointed in this Starbucks location today! Ordered my usual pink drink at drive thru, while pulling away I took a sip and it had a grape taste so I went in to have them remake, they remade it the exact same way! So they redid it, this time it was handed to me red as can be, barely any coconut milk, I got frustrated and just walked out! The girl making it clearly looked confused and not 100% sure what she was doing and no one was helping her, they had her remake a drink twice without help! This location needs to focus on training more and helping in a situation like this!

    Still in line. Lol

    This is my second time coming to this specific location and I definitely enjoyed the experience. The employees are always super friendly and the one guy "IAN" has the best customer service ever. He makes sure that our orders are always hot and ready and he does it with a smile on his face EVERYTIME. I will definitely be visiting this location again. Good job Starbucks. You guys rock

    Not even once have I had a bad experience at this Starbucks. That's saying a lot since I've been here in the double digits now and come in the "morning rush" most days. With this weather being as hot as it is I can't seem to stay away from their amazing varieties of iced coffees and my all time favorite Caramel Frappuccino (I haven't been to this location in the winter to experience any of their hot beverages). The location is extremely convenient for me, as it's right around the corner from my downtown work location. I love that it's right there on the busiest stretch of Granby St. but can still handle the volume of customers they get. Thanks for always taking care of my caffeine addiction!

The coffee was really good --it was fresh, smooth, and not bitter at all. I loved the aroma of their coffee. The staff was pleasant and knowledgeable, which made the experience even better.

We opted to get a whole pizza and went for the Brisket and Blue which had fresh mozzarella, gorgonzola, smoked beef brisket, basil, pickled red onion, and green chili jam. The pizza was incredible. It had a great bite, slightly crispy, super savory with a touch of sweetness and the brisket was the savory star of the show. I added a bit of red pepper flake and it took it from a 9 to a 9.5 dare I say 10. I highly recommend checking this bakery out whether it's something as simple as a cookie or croissant or the whole pizza. There is something for everyone.

It's incredibly spacious with high ceilings, tons of natural light, and lots of beautiful details everywhere you look. The front patio is perfect for people watching or just enjoying some fresh air, with lots of space between tables (no awkward eavesdropping here). Inside, the vibe is super chill. There were quite a few people working on laptops, but it didn't feel stuffy or too quiet ... just a comfortable, low-key buzz that makes you want to stay a while. I started off with an iced americano topped with strawberry cold foam. The foam itself was a little thicker than I expected (it was more "whipped cream" than "cold foam"), but honestly, it was delicious. I'd totally order it again. The flavor combination is chef's kiss. A little sweet, a little tangy, and it adds something fun to a classic drink. For food, I went all in on the Box Car Sandwich. If you love grilled cheese, you HAVE to try this. Oozy pepperjack and cheddar, crispy bacon, tomato, avocado, all sandwiched between slices of perfect sourdough. And the special sauce on the side? I could have eaten it with a spoon. I have no idea what's in it, but I want a bottle to take home. I can't wait to come back here and give their espresso martini a try, and their pepperoni swirl pastry looked 10/10.
