    THE BIG: Super, super crowded Starbucks. There is always a line here. Located inside Crabtree Valley Mall, right next to Sears on the second floor. Decent space inside with a weird long hallway. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I think they need to revamp the line efficiency of this Starbucks, or maybe go into a bigger space because the line is ridiculous. I remember the first time coming in the line and had to wait for 10 minutes to grab my simple order. After shopping for an hour, I came back and waited for 20 minutes to get another simple order... Granted the line was a bit longer...but wow, I feel if you're trying to maximize revenue, you want to get people in and out as fast as possible. Regardless of my line troubles, the interior is really nice and has four outside tables... in the mall lol. THE FINAL BAMBOO: I'm pretty basic when it comes to my starbucks, I get the tall pike for $2.92 every and all the time.

    I'd love to say that Starbucks is Starbucks, and once you've had one you've had them all... however that JUST isn't the case. I'm no Starbucks junkie or anything but I know all Starbucks are NOT created equally! That's said this location, albeit convenient since it is conveniently located with direct access to a mall the it is set back away from everything. Even the mall entrance is set back kinda away from everything. The staff, while friendly enough I suppose, when given some feedback on a drink that was made with beans there was no sense of remorse or care. I wasn't looking for a free drink, just someone to say "hey I'm sorry for making it like that" or "I understand your concern". Given that I go to Starbucks on regular basis I was hoping to be treated a bit more like a regular at this location. When I go to other Starbucks I get a "family" kinda feel, and it's gets me all warm and fuzzy! This one left me feeling just like Covid-19 was still present!! And no one wants that!!!

    Disgusting store. Counters dirty, trash cans overflowing, and milk left out without a lid on. Won't be back.

    The worst Starbucks in Raleigh. It's always dirty and packed out the door with people because they're so slow. We went in two weeks ago and it was the most nasty store I've ever been in. They had at least five employees working and yet it took upwards of ten minutes to make our drink and the store was falling apart. Contacted their customer service and got a canned "we're sorry, we'll let them know" response with no offer to make it right. Won't be back to this location again.

    When I walked in Starbucks, I told awhile to look at the menu. So I stood and look at the menu and the barista was like next because I was the only one in line. Also I let everyone else go first when people came in because I didn't want to hold up the line. Finally I got back in line went to place my order and the guy seem impatient with me. He kept tapping the cashier monitor and like anything anything else and looking around. It's not like I don't know what I want. I'm telling him and he's just not paying attention. So I raised my voice a little louder so he can hear because he was like what did you say. So I ordered the pink drink and I noticed that they gave me more ice compare to the drink. Here is a picture of my cup after I finish the drink. That's a ridiculous amount of ice. Don't recommend this Starbucks at all.

    Iced caramel latte grande. Dunkin donuts is much better and cheaper

    Very nice location for a mall. Does have outdoor seating as well as inside. Outdoor is in a parking lot.

The staff is nice and helpful. They seem to always have a smile! The coffee is great. Always fresh. The bakery items are good too! I have tried about half of their regular fare and they never disappoint. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is it seems some people camp out there to get work done for hours on end. It makes those of us who want to just get out of a normal office setting to enjoy some coffee and a snack have a hard time finding a spot. Other than that, love the casual vibe and change of pace.

We had a little difficulty finding it. GPS brought us to the parking lot behind the building. There isn't clear signage to direct you where to go.

It's set up to encourage working, with plenty of charging spots all around. There is a variety of seating, from long wooden tables to smaller individual areas. We ordered a chai latte and golden milk latte, both with oat milk. Both drinks were good. Fyi there is a separate entrance from the side that takes you directly to another smaller parking lot.

They had a lot of options as far as specialty lattes but I am glad I went with the Vanilla Maple. I was worried that the maple flavor would be too much but it complimented the vanilla well. The inside was VERY well decorated, and I would've loved to stay and do a little computer work! I could see myself coming by and sitting down for a quick brunch, meeting up with friends, or staying for a work session.
