I'll be honest I generally drink plain black dark roast or espresso but feel that I'm generally particular with the coffee I drink. I want a good cup of coffee strong and balanced. Starbucks dark roast the "Caffe Verona" is rich with notes of dark cocoa and caramelized sugar. For me and I'm someone who brews my coffees at home more often than not this coffee is delicious, smooth and worth stopping in for when I'm running around and would like that special cup. It's always fresh and the barista's are always very sweet and helpful. Last week my daughter in law and I went in and sat for a while, I had my cafe Verona my daughter in law had asked for recommendations on a latte to drink. She opted for "Sugar Cookie" and was really pleased. She also had the "Potato, cheddar and chive bake" which she thoroughly enjoyed. While we sat and talked for a while we were asked if we needed anything and there was a very peaceful, comfortable feeling just being able to sit and relax for a while. I think it's great when you can feel so welcomed at your local Starbucks!

My experience here was not bad. Did a mobile order for drive thru but it was way too long so went inside. Barista told me to check pickup area even though my order was in the drive thru pickup area behind counter. She acted like she didn't know there were two areas. Regardless, coffee was what I needed to start my day and the sandwich was pretty solid. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Threw a drink at my face and called it the "whip special". Then proceeded to Griddy right in front of me. Highly unprofessional.

It's a slow Sunday morning, one car in the drive thru and one customer sitting inside. I'm waiting a few minutes before one of the four employees finally takes my order. After she hands me my drink, I ask for a straw and without looking up she rudely tells me there by the door. No have a nice day no nothing. I couldn't believe how rude they were. I'm paying almost $8 for a drink and you can't be nice. I'm not one to usually write reviews but I'm annoyed how all the employees are so rude here. I've been to this location several times and at different times. I won't be returning to this location. read more

Starbucks - Blackberry Sage Lemonade Refresher - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Avoid at all costs. The rudest employees ever. They are not helpful and the way they treated us was terrible

Horrible experience at Starbucks. Beyond disappointed with the manager and staff. I get that I arrived to order my coffee 5 minutes before they closed, the guy was a nice dude but a bit distracted. I asked for a venti flat white with almond milk and extra cinnamon. When I get to the window, after paying he realizes he forgot the cinnamon powder, great! No biggie. When I drive around, take my first sip I immediately taste cow milk which I'm lactose intolerant, I drive around to the drive up window and I'm completely ignored by both manager and the guy. All I needed was a change of milk. At this point it's 8:02pm. Wow, 2 minutes after their closing. They couldn't even acknowledge me. Straight up rude & intolerant. What ever happened to kindness Starbucks? read more

Starbucks - Flat white latte done incorrectly - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Drinks were just okay but the service was so rude. The girl taking our order her name started with a J I think and she looked like she hated us, the world, and everyone in it. Her attitude was on point. The guy that made our drinks seemed annoyed when I asked him what milk he used in my drink (due to major sensitivity). Would not go back. Don't recommend. Update: he lied to me, he did not use coconut milk which is what I ordered and was on the ticket. Unfortunately, I traveled a few miles up the road before tasting (should have tasted it there) so now I will have an unpleasant reaction and couldn't drink my drink. So lame. DRINKS WERE NOT OKAY. read more

Starbucks venti ice shaken espresso with white mocha. They added way you to much ice but that's typical

Popped in for a quick drink - the drive thru line was super long, so we parked and went inside. Another long line with people obviously confused about where their orders were. We ordered two Frappuccinos and a lemon loaf and then waited 25 minutes - never received a receipt - and there were 6 people working inside. Watched a family of six turn around and leave because no one waited on them. Not anywhere near the level of service Starbucks was known for in the past. And I mean the very recent past - even during the pandemic. read more

There were four people meandering around apologizing for slow service even as they meandered. No sign of trying to speed things up. When they announced the drinks they said, "Is ---- still here?" My husband's tea was filled to the absolute brim so he burned himself when trying to navigate it. My drink's lid was filled with drink! We were furious!! Are you kidding?! THIS is NOT Starbucks!!!!!! It took 20 minutes to get two drinks. Not again!!!!!! read more

Starbucks ruined my once-in-a-blue-moon Friday treat today. It's a first and hopefully not anymore in the future. I usually avoid picking up a drink here since it can get crazy but there was not any special day gig or promo today, so I picked this day to brave the drive. My fave chestnut praline latte order was incompletely done. No whipped creme or extra chestnut praline toppings. Well, I know this is a busy spot especially on this cold FL day but still that's still my money spent but received short-changed. Disappointing. Please do better, Starbucks. I still love my fave drink. read more

Ice coffee is nasty tales like gasoline and I usually love their coffee just not this location. Slow mobile order too

If I could put 0 I would because this LADY working at the front had a tree stuck up her ass. She should be ASHAMED of herself!! no young lady should ever act like that EVER! Fix up your attitude young miss because Grandpa doesn't like that! The food made my wife SICK. When we got home she vomited on the wall! Eugh, Starbucks has something in their food at this point! read more

Starbucks - Very berry hibiscus refresher! The name is the exact way it tastes! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ocala, Florida

I hate to give less than 5 stars to a brand new store but I could not help it. I'm being understanding with this being day one. I use the one on Pine Avenue a lot. They had things to work out the first few weeks they opened with a new drive thru but it was packed when they opened and has been growing since. The difference here is that I was there for a while talking and never saw it busy. But they were running around like crazy. The real reason for the low rating is that I ordered an Ultimate Caramel Frappuccino and a hot chocolate. They gave me the hot chocolate for my daughter and an Ultimate Mocha because they were out of one of the caramels. Since when do they decide what drink to give you when they can't make your order?? I told her I did not want the Mocha but she kept saying over and over that they were out of dark caramel. I told her to make a Creme Brûlée instead. She never acknowledged me. Instead she started making drinks for other customers. There were other baristas available. I waited and waited then told her I was taking the hot chocolate to my daughter while it was still hot! I came back to watch her continue to make other drinks and hear her apologize to them all for their wait. Meanwhile 20 minutes and I'm still waiting. Finally the Assistant Manager noticed me and asked the barista what was going on. After she was told she asked me what I'd like instead. She immediately made it but I got no apology from either of them. I hope this was Opening day jitters and newbies being trained on the job and that it will get better. They have lots of room inside. Plenty of places to sit. Padded benches and chairs. The new parking lot is amazing compared to their old one. Shady areas and the outside area is very roomy. There's where I give the 3 stars. After more visits I'll be happy to change my review if things are better. read more

Oh, c'mon people. It's not that bad of a location. Tough crowd here. Sure, it's just another Starbucks but serves it's purpose. WiFi works great here. Not a ton of seating but they do have outlets available along the tables by the front windows. Staff was good and my free rewards drink came out fine. Same usual products on sale along with the menu of drinks. Maybe it was because I came here at night to get some work done on my computer and it wasn't busy but I saw no problems. Not the largest place but living in NYC I have been to a bunch that are way smaller. Eh, it's a Starbucks after all. What more do you want? read more

One of their older stores, seems like they regularly have issues with the computers and mobile orders don't work sometimes. But my daughter and I love to come in the mornings before school. She has her cake pop and milk and I have my morning espresso. Starbucks is pretty consistent quality across the brand chain and the baristas usually know a ristretto from an americano read more

I just had the WORST experience here EVER!! I waited over 20 minutes in line, got my order, and it tasted just like straight milk. There didn't seem to be any coffee in it at all!!! The drive through had already gotten so full it was wrapped around the building! I was not going to wait another 20 minutes to tell them it was wrong so I went to the front door. The inside area was closed, but I knocked on the door WITH MY MASK ON just so they could fix my drink. Not only did they refuse to even walk to the door, they would not answer their phone!! I called 23 times. NO ANSWER. And when I called corporate to ask how to get ahold of the store manager they proceeded to tell me that store is CLOSED?!? So apparently I got my drink from a ghost store. Worst ever. read more

Starbucks - Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino Blended Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ocala, Florida

I've been sitting in the drive thru at 1:30pm for 20 mins. Not exaggerating. It's now 1:49. This is insane. Still not at the window yet. Never in my life have I sat in a Dunkin drive thru a fraction of this time even in morning rush. Line keeps moving. They need the folks at Chic-fil-a to come help them work it out. Staff nice. But geez it's not even that busy. This is insane. read more

On a road trip and the cafe was closed. It's 2022 and you can't have an open cafe? Waited in the drive thru for coffee slowest drive thru EVER avoid this Starbucks read more

I am addicted to hot chocolate and Starbucks must be the easiest fix for sure. The drinks are always consistently made and with pretty good wait times. The service is friendly without taking g too much time. They almost seem to know my order by heart now. The location gets very busy but I definitely can't fault them for that. The place is kept very clean and the tables are turned around very quickly. If you need that morning fix or afternoon pick me up, definitely come here. read more

I am not feeling well and just wanted the "medicine ball" drink. I went inside because the line was almost to the road, and literally waited 30 minutes. I'm not joking. I checked the label which was made at 4:07, and I just got in my car and I'm writing this at 4:40. For a freaking tea! No it was NOT that busy. Every time I come here, the wait gets longer and longer. Unless you have a free 30 minutes to dally in a dirty coffee shop, don't come here. read more

Best Starbucks in Ocala, management has improved so much, most friendly staff, and some of the best baristas :)

This location sad to say is not very consistant with their drinks as they seem to have a different taste EVERY TIME I order there. However, it is WAY better than the one inside the Target that is in the same parking lot. I order a grande americano with cream and white mocha and it just never comes out the same. My recommendation is that if you are in the area I would choose this location over the one in Target, but if you are going somewhere and will pass another location choose the other location. read more

Perhaps the smallest Starbucks I have ever been in. Had seating for like 7 people. I did appreciate there seemed to be abundant nursing students studying frantically for exams and NCLEX's... which I honestly do find appealing having attended Dental School and thereby studying in the same manner... The barrista at this location knew her stuff, and I was happy that the coffee was smooth and fresh. Occasionally at Starbucks they seem heavy handed with the acid finish. There was some outdoor seating too, but it was bot hot and unappealing... read more

Avoid!! This is the LONGEST Starbucks drive thru I have ever waited in. And that's saying something, I go to one almost every day. Never have I see such a sh*tshow. Been waiting for 30 minutes so far with 7 cars ahead of me when I pulled in. No excuse for that, not even if one person was running the whole place. If you're stopping through on a trip, wait to go a few exits up! Good grief! read more

Horrible Store. Promised my wife a hot espresso drink when she came out of eye surgery. Waited 35 minutes until I finally had to ask for my money back (which was returned to me with a shrug and a mouthed "sorry'). Badly managed, with robots slamming out overpriced drinks that you are welcome to "enjoy" in a hard backed chair on a stained concrete floor. If you want something akin to what Starbucks was 20 years ago, try SIPS across from the Walmart on Easy Street. Cheaper, friendlier, better coffee, nice surroundings and much better managed! read more

Just went to this Starbucks ordered a nitro cold brew paid for it at the window and then minutes later they proceeded to tell me they didn't have it so I said fine, ordered just an iced coffee and the lady working the window didn't offer my money back or anything on the drink that is almost 3 dollars cheaper than the one I ordered that they were out of. When I tried to talk to her she just walked away from the window, me and my wife will not be back to this location. Very sub par customer service! read more

This Starbucks is a complete disgrace. My husband and I went here and ordered an nitro cold brew and a caramel macchiato. The incredibly rude woman with long strawberry blonde hair working the drive-thru today informed us upon pulling up to the window that they didn't have anymore of the nitro cold brew and offered us an iced coffee as a substitute. An iced coffee is $2.50 less expensive than a nitro cold brew is and we had already paid for our drinks. We explained this to her and the lady refused to acknowledge the price difference and slammed the window in our faces. Horrible customer service and will NOT be returning to this Starbucks. Would much rather go to the one downtown. read more

Probably one of the biggest Starbucks I've been to. Atmosphere have me a small town community vibe. Local artists were sketching. A few moms were meeting and they're kids were around on their juices. A businesswoman was on the phone behind me, but chatting at a respectful volume. A few people were scattered around chatting or reading. A steady flow of customers came through the store during my visit, greeted and served promptly. Many seemed to be regulars. Very laid back. Not the typical Starbucks hustle and bustle you find in most locations. A good number of tables and a couple couches were available, too. People were very friendly and welcomed a new face. I recommend this location and will certainly return - especially now that I'm a green level member and get free refills. read more

Went through their new drive thru and I ordered a grande hot peppermint mocha coffee. Got it pretty quickly and took a sip. It was completely cold. So I decided to park and run inside to what I thought would be a quick run in. I ended up standing in there waiting for 25 mins for them to simply remake my coffee. Barista claimed she remade it and someone else must have grabbed it but they were calling names and I was standing there the whole time. The only thing that turned it around was the barista was really sweet and apologetic and gave me 2 $4 off cards for my next visit read more

This is a poorly managed store. Unless you have 15-20 minutes to wait for a coffee, don't stop here.
