First of all I have to say I love Starbucks! Every time I visit this location it seems to always be busy. Which tells me everyone else loves it too! For as many people that are in line the Starbucks team members seem to keep the line moving at a pretty steady pace. The crew that works there are very friendly and are always smiling! I have yet to have a bad experience here. I have also visited the inside and they are just as fast and friendly! If your looking for a great cup of coffee you know you can't go wrong with Starbucks! Also Google the secret menu for more drinks. If you tell them the recipe they will make it! I think that's pretty cool but I guess that's been around for a while. But I just found out so now I'm sharing it with you! read more

Starbucks - My Venti White Chocolate Mocha & me at Knights Ferry!!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Oakdale, California

I don't drink coffee so I can't speak to that. However I'm sure if you are a coffee drinker you already know Starbucks. You don't need me telling you about that. I would just like to say that they sell more than just coffee and have a pretty decent selection. It's also a nice, comfortable and quiet place to use the free WiFi and finish whatever project or assignment you are working on in peace. Of course you can just relax and do nothing too. Relaxing is always good. read more

Miserable staff super slow Even at 6.30am It was obvious they didn't want to be there! read more

I came at 4:55am 7/17/17 for coffee, being the only one there with my boyfriend I was shocked at what I found in my coffee cup. I was on a trip and already to far away to go back when I got half way through my cup and found this RIPPED PLASTIC BAG in my coffee!! I don't understand how they didn't see it when making my coffee, it's beyond ridiculous I'm disgusted. Aside from it being so disgusting it had pieces that could have came off I'm still unsure weather I drank pieces of the plastic. I could have choked. I'll never go back to this location. I'm a frequent Starbucks gold card holder Since 2012 & I've never experienced such a Careless unprofessional Starbucks. read more

Literally the friendliest Starbucks I have ever visited. Girl at the window Wednesday morning was a Star!!!

Absolutely the worst Starbucks never have anything you order or always closed for some reason.Wish there was another local option.

Ughhhh Im hardly ever in Oakdale and I decided to stop by on this rainy day.. I ordered a grande peppermint white hot chocolate and I got this instead.. after waiting over 5 min at the pick up window for my drink. The guy working was kinda whatever about his service too. Walking into the lobby and then back and I never saw anyone making my drink. He comes back to the window and hands me a drink that has been sitting there since I got there. Kinda annoyed. read more

Starbucks - Not my name, not my order, tastes like crap. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Oakdale, California

Ordered a drink from the Starbucks down the road and it wasnt the best. Came to this Starbucks and they replaced it for free and made an amazing coffee! Very friendly staff and great service! read more

This is a consistent problem with this location. This is BARELY half full and it was just a regular hot chocolate, no weird order changes. There is NO whipped cream and the flat white is also approximately 1/3 foam (I know a flat white comes with a layer of foam but this is NOT standard). I avoid this location but it has been a few months and I figured I'd give them another chance but once again they disappoint. There was NO line, either. There's no excuse. I had to repeat myself at the drive through and the barista at the window was too busy talking to their coworker to pay any attention to what they were doing. I've been a barista, and while it can be stressful at times, there's no excuse for this. Not when the product is as expensive as Starbucks is. read more

Starbucks - Flat White Hot Chocolate - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Oakdale, California

See all

I visit this Starbucks maybe once a month when I'm traveling through, but every time I stop I'm amazed at how well the store is run. I used to work for Starbucks so I see what many others don't. Their partners are always stationed, you know who is supposed to be doing what, they make suggestive sales, and they greet every person who walks in even if it's just a mobile order. And they actually call out the names of mobile orders when others do not. The manager is on the floor often and she works harder than anyone else. Great job to Desi and her team, this store sets the bar. read more

Bought a Verismo machine so my wife and I could enjoy decaf mochas. Now Starbucks has discontinued milk pods and never have the decaf pods available. Called Starbucks to complain, they said they would look into this and would get back to me. 3 months latter, still no reply. They've lost a really good customer! Anyone else out there with a Verismo machine they can't use? read more

I understand every business is short staffed now a days but the fact that it took over 35 mins in the drive thru for 2 drinks is absolutely ridiculous Starbucks do better read more

We walked into this Starbucks and were greeted by no one- the store was completely empty. We stood at the empty counter for a minute or so, nobody showed up and then we yelled hello until a surly employee came walking out. She asked us, Have you been helped? We said no. She said...... ok. We had to actually ask if she could please take our order. This interaction was so embarrassing for Starbucks. I haven't been back to one since. read more

Every time I go to this Starbucks, I wonder why I didn't go to the other one in town. The service is always poor and extremely slow. This morning the drive through was packed, so I went inside, where there was only two people in front of me. It took the woman behind the counter 5 minutes to get the lady in front of me two scones and three house coffees with a drink carrier. Once I finally got my order in, they forgot one of my drinks. When I asked a question about my drink, the woman was EXTREMELY rude about it. My stop there this morning served a purpose, to remind me why I never patronize this spot. From now on I will take the extra few minutes to go to the Starbucks by McDonalds. read more

Been to this location multiple times as its the closest to my house. Very SLOW. Customer service and interation is next to zero. This last trip in did a mobile order. Walked in about 10 minutes after order was submitted and it was still on the printer. Sootd there for another 10 minutes and not one "can i help you?". Only after i asked about my drink did they look for.the order. They found it and put.it at the end of the line like it was just placed. The app is supposed to be a way to preorder and get ahead of the lines and save time. This is just more salt in the wound with the history ive had with this location and its staff over the past three years. Not sure why its only this one location. If you go to this location be sure your not in a hurry and you have plenty of patience. If not go.to the other one down by mcdonalds and you get the normal service most starbucks have grown acustom to. :( read more

Waited 20 min for one drink with no line and 4 employees working. Neither the employees or manager on duty acknowledged me when I arrived or while I was waiting. The only reason why I can give them one star is because I received a refund and my drink because I demanded it. Worst Starbucks experience read more

My friends and I were drained of the necessary caffeine we need to complete our day, but thankfully we stumbled upon this lovely Starbucks after our grueling long trip from the mountains. Fortunately enough, not only did I leave with my beverage made to perfection, but I left with a smile on my face from the friendly staff. Their friendly attitudes definitely improved my day..you never know when someone would need a smile from a stranger or two. The car ride was a bit uneasy for me due to receiving bad news, but the employees of Starbucks in Oakdale definitely made me feel better. Thank you so much. You guys really improved my solemn mood and probably have no idea. I'm from San Jose, but your kindness makes me want to visit again. - Tina read more

Another Starbucks - exactly like the rest, but when your on a road trip need caffeine and a potty break - it makes a good stop. They hire the local high school graduate girls and service is fine. Coffee is marginal but it does the job. read more

Why is this Starbucks so slow compared to just about all other Starbucks? The staff is usually nice but the wait is absurd.

The drinks are always good, but the service leaves alot to be desired! Unless the manager is behind the counter it is though their conversation is more important than the customer service. I was just in there. As on many occassions, the cashier was having a conversation with a customer friend of hers and completely ignored the fact that I was waiting to order. The girl making the drinks was taking orders from the guy in front of me and myself as the other girl finished her conversation. Would have given them one star, but when the manager is there the service is much better. read more

I usually try to be pretty understanding of busy coffee shops but this place is always the absolute slowest and least attentive place around! It's pretty bad when it's faster to drive across town to the other Starbucks than it is to wait at this one! read more

Oakdale has to locations. This drive thru is the longest one in the Central Valley. I am not too sure why this locations takes forever. I would get out and grab my coffee, but I have a little in my car. People who are parking are getting out with their order before I haven even been able to order. I thought it was suppose to be the opposite where drive thru is faster than going into location. Note for future I will take a little longer drive to go to the other location. read more

I love starbucks, I usually get 2 teas and 4 cookies for my mom and I, I never have any problems with starbucks service. There service is always really friendly but there wait time sucks, I've had to wait up to 15 minutes in line. The only problem I have is I never get my complete order when I'm at the window. I always get my teas and they are made right, but I never get my cookies I always have too tell them that I have 4 cookies with my order as well, every single time I go to this location. Then I have to wait longer while they go look or bag my cookies. If they keep this up I will stop going to this location altogether. read more

Been here a few times and it's a reliable choice for coffee. Good amount of parking and also pretty fast service (especially considering their drive thru line is almost always full). read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Oakdale, California

Decided to review because I am a long time customer of Starbucks in general. But this location has disappointed me more than once. The customer service is very poor. When they mess up your coffee over and over and they don't really care, is sad. Worse than that, you call corp and they all say Sorry. But I don't want sorries I just want good coffee. This location will let your breakfast sandwich get cold while you wait forever for your coffee. And than its made wrong. So I just go to the one down the road. Where the Baristas are all smiles and get it right. read more

I was in today waiting for my order when i noticed a young customer maybe 10 years old going to buy a drink. He was just a bit short but the cashier Luke, without hesitation pulled out his wallet and covered the rest for the kid. Luke's customer service has always been great whenever I've gone in, but today he went above and beyond to help this customer. read more

This place has horrible customer service! I ordered 2 drinks from inside and I get my first drink after waiting 10 minutes. I was told my other drink would be right up! Well another 10 minutes go by and I get my other coffee. At this point I was irritated and tried asking one of the workers for a manager and they just ignore you. It was 8:45 in the morning so they weren't that busy. They are just rude do not care. I think everybody there should be fired besides the guy that took my order. This place is a negative star and a shit hole! read more

This is one of my favorite Starbucks, I actually miss their friendly service, great coffee and convenient drive-thur as well as there complimentary sample cup full of whip creme for the back seat passenger to feel like she is getting a special treat at Starbucks. read more

On any other occasion I wouldn't review a Starbucks. They're a franchise and are pretty much the same everywhere. I had a long drive home so decided to hit the drive thru for an extra coffee caramel frap. There was one car in front of me, not bad but they took forever! I chalked it up to them ordering a ton. It was finally my turn. I pulled up and waited at least 3 minutes until the window opened for them to take my payment. I paid, he closed the window and it felt like another 3 minutes until I got my 2 drinks. It was way too long of a wait for a Starbucks drive thru where there was only one car in front of me and none behind me. I was really disappointed, but the frap did it's job and I was wide awake for my drive. read more

Why did a simple trip to Starbucks turn into a 30min ordeal when a costumer and I were the only ones is the store! The cashier ignored me for about 10mins! The people after me got their drink before I did and they had similar drinks to mine! The staff was unapologetic and was unprofessional for my starbucks standards!! read more

HORRIBLE service my frappe tasted like water anytime i encounter a bad drink at any other starbucks i return it & they nicely make me a new one but no not here ! the lady told me "well i followed the recipe sorry it did not taste right" like excuse me i pay money to have at least descent drink !!im never coming to this Starbucks again!!!! read more

Worst customer service in the country, drinks come out alright........ But the whole lot of them should be canned! Need to learn the basics. Customers come first! Then you can play on your phone, tell jokes or what ever the hell it is that your doing besides helping the customer at the counter! read more

Extremely nice and clean. Love hitting this joint up when in town.

Fast Starbucks in town. Large and air conditioned place to enjoy your drink from the heat. The employees are true riffic at suggesting and giving their opinions about the drinks. Very friendly and very helpful employees. Will be back read more

I went in to redeem my stars and normally when I go into a starbucks to redeem them they are so sweet and happy to give me my well earned drink. Im pretty disappointed with the lack of enthusiasm and friendliness here. And i had to tell 3 different people what my drink was. Venti coffee with 3 shots and sweet cream. Not that hard i didnt think.. Idk whatever i wont be back to this one when theres one on every corner read more

Very friendly staff. I walk here almost every weekend. They just got updated to the latest marketing drive through stuff

I would put zero stars but it doesn't let you. Always takes forever and then when you bring it up that you've been waiting over 20 minutes for two drinks they just say sorry and walk away. Got my blended drink after 10 minutes and then the hot coffee I got took another 10 minutes. Can't even say bad customer service because there was no customer service given to me. read more

I love Starbucks but Everytime I come to this one, the line takes forever, and I don't mean like 5 or ten minutes, it's much longer. It's ridiculous. Drive the extra few blocks and go to the other Starbucks. read more
