This Starbucks is ideally located if you're trying to kill time at Mall of Asia waiting for a taxi or a date. There is ample indoor and outdoor seating. There is a security guard there to make sure the people are actual customers so there's always available seating. The main reason for this rating is the outdoor area, which is in a prime people-watching location by the main mall entrance.
Unlike the Starbucks locations where I am from, the food here is more interesting. They even provide real silverware and plates! I tried both the mango cheesecake and the blueberry cheesecake, which were both ok but suffered from a mediocre crust.
The prices here are comparable to US prices, especially for items such as coffee mugs and tumblers (read: expensive by local comparison). Service was fast and friendly, but also mildy offputting. When picking up items they ask to check your receipt, which is more to prevent theft than to make sure you're grabbing the correct order. read more
