I had a vanilla cream drink here, it was one of the few non-caffeinated drinks available. It was okay. Service was good, helpful. This Starbucks seems fine. If you can get a seat, it's an all right place to chill, but sometimes it's quite busy. It's conveniently located. read more

Thank you Daud for the delicious drink and conversation! Even though there's plenty of chairs inside and outside... it can get full fast. Right by North York Centre station, close to the 401 and a quiet suburban neighbourhood to walk in. The female staff (especially one supervisor) are awesome as well. read more

This Starbucks location is very convenient, as it is close to the subway. It is also spacious and clean, with a lot of staff members. I ordered the Bacon-style turkey, cheddar, and egg white sandwich. It tasted okay, but it's a bit pricey, and I don't think it's worth the price. ($5.45+tax) :( However, the customer service is excellent and efficient. You don't have to wait for a long time. read more

I came here this morning for a cup of coffee before my half day of remote work. This location is right around the corner of the North York Centre, where my hotel is located. It's super convenient in terms of distance, and the lines were moving quickly. There were at least 10 people in here this morning as I grabbed my coffee fixing. I took 1 star off because I couldn't order ahead in my Starbucks app. I'm not sure why because the staff did ask patrons if they did mobile order or not. They also fulfill UberEats orders too. I was the 3rd person in line though, and I was able to redeem my stars this morning for a free coffee. I didn't have to provide my name, they just used it off of my Starbucks account which I can appreciate. My order was perfect, a venti iced caramel macchiato is my go-to and they respected my desire for light ice so my drink isn't watered down. I was pretty much in and out. I was able to make it back to my hotel with plenty of time to spare. I'd recommend this location to anyone in the area looking for coffee. read more

Drinks are over-caffeinated. Perfect for when you need serious stimulant but don't feel like abusing illicit drugs. Great, friendly service here. Free WiFI, but this is not exactly the place to sit down and plug in. Fortunately Mel Lastman square and North York central library are nearby. read more

I visited this Starbucks earlier today and was surprised at how big it has gotten. It used to be a really small location and now this location is huge! This location is long and narrow with a decent sized patio for guests who would like to sit outside. My friend and I placed our orders and received our drinks shortly after. I accidentally ordered a matcha latte over ice instead of a frappuccino and the barista was more than happy to fix my order and blend my drink for me. All over, I will definitely return to this Starbucks when I'm in the area. The service is quick and the baristas are really friendly. read more

This is going to be a quick review. As a renowned franchise, the foods and beverages across all Starbucks location are expected to uphold the same level of quality and this location does its job. My drink was made the way I requested it and I had no concerns. Despite bustling business at seemingly all hours of the day, this location offers fast service, have friendly staff, and uphold cleanliness. read more

Even though the lines are usually very long here, it moves quickly. They keep the place well staffed, particularly in the morning. One of the interesting things about this Starbucks location is the relatively low staff turnover rates. The head office of Starbucks Canada is in the office tower above this, and there is a Starbucks training centre on site. I imagine that has a lot to do with the relative quality of the staff here. Many of the staff remember my drink and greet me by name. One downside that other reviewers have mentioned is the high-schoolers who hang out all day and take up all the seating. It's basically their study spot. On that note, if they're doing one of their promotions where they do 2 for 1 frappucinos or something from 2:00-5:00, I steer clear. Everybody swarms it, particularly the previously mentioned high schoolers, resulting in a line up that stretches out the door. Those frappucinos take a long time to make, too, so you won't served quickly in those situations. I don't think the staff like those promotions, either. Do not park in the no parking zones out front. The parking police move like lightning here. I see people getting towed before they can get in, get a coffee, and get out. read more

Starbucks - That's a line up. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - North York, Ontario

Just tried getting a dark roast coffee, but alas wasn't to be. The they were serving verona,which I dislike, so I asked what their pour over options were today. I was surprised by the response "we don't do that" . I have never come across that before. On our way out someone else asked if we needed anything..."dark roast but not Verona?". Reply was "ok have a nice day" . ... I don't know what to say to that. They aren't making coffee other than their previewed drip. read more

I love this starbucks. In high school, my friend and I would hang out here after school studying for SATs ALL THE TIME (if we weren't at Ajisen or 168 down the street, haha). I also come here a lot just randomly because I live close by. Whether it's packed or moderately full (because it is NEVER empty--maybe a sign of how good it is?), I always get a friendly greeting and my drink is ready as speedily as can be. One of my best friends worked here. She has good taste. That means this starbucks must be amazing. It is. read more

I have watched this Starbucks service crew go from a High School Co-Op placement level of service to the Beatles after Hamburg level of service. That's a good thing. Maybe it's the adherence to Malcolm Gladwell's "10000-Hour Rule" (hopefully not the case) but they are one of the tightest run Starbucks in the city. 80 percent of the time I don't even have to request my drink, they have it in my hand before I hit the cash register. Also, super nice people. Just wish Starbucks would add more exciting beans for their espressos. But it's a minor quibble. read more

Don't bother NC-17 If you're into surprises like some people are into surprise butseks or equivalents thereof, make sure you visit this location. Wanted lactose free? Well you may get whole milk, 20% cream or even cheese nut spread. Who the f**k knows! It's all in the cards for you weary traveller! You came here thinking to yourself, "You know, I've had a long f**king day, maybe I need to pamper myself with one of those exorbitantly expensive drinks, so what the hey, I'll go to Starbucks!" -- You're in for a treat! Not only will they f**k it up for you, they will f**k it up in random and novel ways! Ways your puny brain could not have even begun to contemplate! You wanted no sugar added because you go into a coma if you have a tablespoon? Well no matter, the b*tch at the bar will give you two random helpings of syrup! enough to ruin your f**king break, and the rest of your day, but not quite enough to get you to North York General! To spice things up there are always a few homeless guys hanging around ogling at the chriping high school crowds. This place is just a f**king delight to visit. You do need to have damaged long term memory like me because after six months or so, I forget how horrified I was the last time around, and I'm right back in there ordering my super expensive drink which they're about to bu77 f**k up the arse, yet once again. And this location gets their staff right from the corporate headquarters! Aren't you glad you're getting the best service this esteemed establishment has to offer? Enjoy! read more

I like this location but there are always too many people studying and taking up so much space. I hate people who buy a small coffee and stay at the same table for 3 hours using the free wifi. It gets busy and I have had my order messed up a couple times but I come here all the time so there's bound to be a mix up here or there. Staff are always nice and work as fast as they can. read more

How do you review something as ubiquitous as Starbucks? Since there is absolutely no point describing their menu, I'll focus on things that are unique to this particular store. It's a busy location, just on the south side of the North York City Centre / north end of the Mel Lastman Square. Lots of foot traffic here. When I came in, there was a bit if a line. Two cash registers were open and they had one of their staff walking down the line asking if anyone was ordering a latte or any other fancy drinks so that they could start those for you before you'd even reach the cash register (smart idea -- very efficient). Thanks to that, the line was moving very fast. Given how busy it was, you couldn't find a table there. However, most people didn't plan on staying anyway. They were coming in and leaving with a drink in their hand, off to wherever they were going before. It was a warm day and you could sit on the patio outside. The table situation on the patio was certainly better. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - North York, Ontario

After visiting this location a few times now, I have to say the staff are better than other Starbucks locations I've been to. Quite helpful in knowing what's in the various drinks (syrups, flavours, sugar, etc.) and able to make recommendations based on my preferences. It's on my way to work in the morning so I'm sure I'll be here at least a few more times in the next couple of weeks. read more

Probably one of my favorite Starbucks locations one been to. Though like most coffee shops there is limited seating inside and outside there's still plenty of room to sit along the ledges/sides as is right beside North York Centre where you can sit back along th Both Iriana and I decides to take a break from the hussle and bussle of the annual hispanofest going on at Lastman Square and have a cup of Caffeine......... and a fudge oat brownie lol. Iri had the usual frappucino meanwhile I just ordered their tall blonde red eye (with a shot of espresso)...... after minutes of waiting for Iriana in the restroom lineup I couldn't resist the fudge brownie hence I went back to order it haha. .. yea I'm a piggy with needs!! The service is fast and friendly and the overall vicinity is clean and presentable. However the only drawback was the fact it was a long line for the restroom, and the layout of how close it was to the main counter. I felt the layout of this location could have been better however you can't be too picky. read more

I came here with a co-worker who was looking for a special, limited edition brand of Starbucks coffee. For a few minutes I watched as the employee went out of her way to find the coffee and bag it specifically for my co-worker. While there was a good bit of extra effort involved in this exchange, the service was excellent. The other employees stepped it up so that our transaction did not hold up the line. While not every Starbucks has great service, this one really went the extra mile to show that they do. read more

This Starbucks is very tiny. There are not enough spots to sit and almost no place to charge your phone or laptop. The pluses are the patio, the friendly staff and the drinks. read more

Starbucks - Hello PSL! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - North York, Ontario

This location is ALWAYS busy but I can't remember waiting more than 2 minutes for my order. Great location near North York subway stop :-) The staff here seem to go the extra mile to be friendly and the Free Wi-Fi keeps this place full of students. read more

I'm a huge fan of Starbucks and probably get at least one cup of coffee/latte a day. Just wanted to write a review for this one as this location is one of the busiest I've encountered with a line up all the way to the entrance. If you just want to hang out, read a book or work, I'd not recommend this location as it's always busy and packed. Plus, there are virtually no power plugs and limited seating available. I'm sure it's much better in the summer time when patio seating is available. read more

Great convenient location to get Starbucks. Place is small than other Starbucks but it's ok. There aren't many places though to plug in a laptop read more

Super packed during work day but what an efficient group of staff ! They've got their assembly line down to a T. 20 customers ahead and got my drink AND asked how to spell my name (almost never happens and they get it wrong) in about 5min! Throughly impressed!!! Great customer service read more

This location is really busy. The baristas were friendly enough, if not a bit too chatty with customers despite the growing lines. I like that there's an outdoor patio, it was nice to hang out there on a nice day, while I waited for people. read more

I work in this building, so I come here every morning to get my caffeine fix. The line is normally to the door at rush hour (which is any time before 10:30am), but the friendly staff take orders from the line so that your order is ready by the time you get to the front to pay. They never get my order wrong, the counters are always clean and the milk jugs are always full. What more can you ask for from a Starbucks? Oh, maybe some couches. Oh well. It's not like I have time to sit in and drink my coffee anyway! read more

Great staff. I always order the grand sit cappuccino. And never leave without my banana loaf!

Among the best SBs I have been!! Awesome staff!

It doesn't have wifi, with a number of 8 people there's no place to sit on, i had to sit on the outside table on a very cold weather. The cashier guy was really impolite. read more

A new packaging for the roast packs doesn't justify such a price hike. As a customer I'm not getting anything new from buying the new design I still toss it out in the garbage and keep my coffee in a tin. read more

This was a good Starbucks experiencs, I mean, I love Starbucks and I don't usually come to something worng. Even though I don't usually sit and sip, There wernt alot of spots to sit at. But overall, my Green tea frap was amazing! read more

always busy, lots of employees. there's a girl named Jessica who is very friendly and always smiling at customers, I like her enthusiasm and professionalism. she re-did my drink because it was the wrong size. overall good service and speed. read more

The baristas here are lovely ppl and very accommodating, and the drinks are always made right. The only problem is the limited seating but I just grab my frap and head to the library nearby. In contrast, I'd advise that ppl avoid the Bayview Village location if possible. The baristas there are rude to so many of their customers, water down drinks, turn on the AC even when it's cold outside (to get ppl to leave) and often mess up orders. I'd definitely come to this location instead if it had more seats. read more

Worst caramel frapachino i have ever got.. You barely can taste caramel and the taste too light :-(

I always like coming here. Service is quick, although it can get very busy at times, but that's understandable. Excellent frappucinos with lots of whip cream. Redeemed a birthday drink here as well with no hassles at all. read more
