They cannot keep up. Eggnog Latte out of stock 3 days before Christmas. One of the many reasons to get my coffees some where else. It's very pricey, slow as molasses every time nowadays. Shitshow read more

I spend about $175 a week at Starbucks. I have been spending at that level for years. I think that should qualify me as a "customer." Even under the new rules. Tonight, a very rude employee refused to give me the bathroom code at the Peace Street Starbucks -- because I hadn't ordered yet. I was told I wasn't a customer. I believe I will look elsewhere for my coffee needs. read more

I order my drink on line cause I need it ready ASAP, and they claimed that the drink was made and when I go to get it, was no where to be found. So I left angry and without my coffee!. read more

When I ask for decaf, I need decaf. I have weird reactions to caffeine. I asked to double check and the barista said yes, it is decaf. There is no way. I was lied to. I don't appreciate that since I go to Starbucks 3-4 days per week. The staff at Falls and Morrocroft have NEVER messed this up. Spring Forest and Capital staff, this is not the first time. Get it together. I won't be back to Spring Forest and Capital. read more

My fav Starbucks since I moved to Raleigh years ago! They can be super busy in the mornings and the parking lot is the worst but the service is amazing and they are so friendly, always remembering the names of their routine customers. My drink is typically always good but when it's a bit off, they always remake it without a problem. read more

Starbucks - Starbucks refresher - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Great coffee. Greater ice. Ridiculously attractive delivery guy. Highly recommend you get your coffee from here.

Starbucks are all much the same (which is a GOOD thing if the quality is good, ha ha!). The differences usually lie in the decor, parking, seating and so on more than the actual drinks. Oh, and the service... due to the younger staff, there's almost always an astonishingly high turnover rate at most of their stores... more on that in another review! The staff was up to snuff, the drinks were fine (the six of us got a wide variety and all were prepared well) and the store wasn't too crowded. This particular store has more seating than most so that was pleasant but the chair they DO have might not be the most comfortable as half of them are tall chairs (see my pic) and if you don't like that, you might not enjoy it as much. The other seats are of a more regular size, plus there's outdoor areas for when the weather is nice. The one real downside to this location is the parking is tight and you can hit your undercarriage getting in and out of it. With traffic on that street sometimes being a bit busy, you might be tempted to rush it until you hear that awful scraping sound. Still, if you keep that in mind, you should enjoy your visit here! read more

Starbucks - Tall seating - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Possibly one of the "chill"est Starbucks I've been to. It's fitting that this store is off of Peace Street. I remember always driving past it when I used to live in Raleigh and noting to myself to actually visit it. Lo behold, finally, I've ventured inside it. Pretty big space with alot of seating, so bring your laptops or a book and pop a squat! They also have one of the most vast selections of starbucks paraphernalia I've seen in a store. The items varies from recipe books to tumblers. On nice days, I would recommend sitting outside. There's a nice bench (looks handbuilt along with umbrellas to keep you shielded from those harmful UV rays. The sun ain't loyal. I remember being frustrated at finding a table since all of them were marked with the handicap logo. I thought it was only for handicap people but after consulting with an employee, they just said that it's handicap friendly. If you're looking for a quiet starbucks, this isn't one of them. It gets pretty busy and there's people constantly running in and out of the store. However, I would definitely recommend this starbucks for people watching and vibing in a casual environment. read more

This Starbucks was wonderful! I'm so happy I was able to obtain a seasonal cup when I'm too busy to leave home. I called (in the evening no less!) about whether they were still participating in a promotion and whether they could fulfill it if I ordered through Uber Eats, and they replied yes to both and followed through! read more

This location is so small but so cute and cozy. The bathrooms were clean and I was able to get my order quick. They pay attention to the name tags and say your name making you feel special. This location does have a drive thru and they offer outdoor seating that's covered. read more

We don't like Starbucks..period. The coffee always tastes burnt. And now we know why! The news just reported they put additives in their coffee without disclosing them. Buyer beware! read more

It's a pretty fun Starbucks. I got complimented on my shirt!

Great location. Right beside Mellow Mushroom. Who doesn't love the smell of coffee and pizza together? haha. The employees here are great at making drinks and are friendly to everyone that's nice to them. There's a large group of regulars that come here every day. It's the perfect place to hang out after dinner.. or to study for final exams like what I did. Here's a cool fact: An old woman drove her car into the side of the building destroying one of the windows near the entrance. The employees kept the hood ornament of her car after it was towed away. LOL. Fyi - There is free wi-fi. You need to activate a starbucks gift card and register it online. The login information is what you use to connect to the at&t internet connection. read more

Really nice staff and work really hard to get everything out in the timely manner. Great place to work!

I love Starbucks. You know the smart phone app is great . Now all the stores are accustom of taking the scan on the phone. The staff here is great and I love the coffee with a shot if espresso. Sometimes I get two shots so my palms sweat. Good parking here, but it may be hard to get out depends on what time of day you go there. Starbucks has not let me down ! read more

Pretty good experience here. I met a friend / marketing associate here for brainstorming session on a cold weekday morning about 10:30. As with all Starbucks, it was packed with folks on their laptops & coming in to get their caffeine fix, "to go." Leah, thankfully, had snagged us a high top two-seater table. I got a skinny caramel macchiato - the line to order was about three deep & it didn't take long to receive my coffee. It was delicious & perfect temperature. Parking is troublesome. And don't you dare park at Mellow Mushroom (directly beside), or you'll find yourself towed. read more

I just really needed an Grande Iced Triple Espresso Macchiatto with extra foam to wake me up after a poor night of sleep. I walked in to a bit of a line but it cleared out pretty quickly. They took my order efficiently and even gave me a cup of iced water on the side to take with me. There's plenty of parking in the lot as well as outdoor seating for a nice coffee break during your morning or afternoon routine. It's right in the Glendale area near William Peace University giving students a solid cup of coffee to fuel the mind and awake the body. The tall bar stools are comfy and offer a tranquil spot to sip on your tea or coffee. The open layout makes it a spacious place to rely on for a solid cup of coffee. Plenty of young professionals and students were studying at the nearby tables which certainly makes Starbucks a great choice for those looking to study but need a break from the library. My order came out accurate and quickly which I appreciated. read more

This Starbucks rocks! There are about 4 or sometimes 5 young workers in the back looking to make fast, but delicious beverages. The vibe inside is super friendly. Everyone pretty much knows each other and can often be chatty, good place to get a break from my home office! I noticed that you can order on the app, not have to even wait in line to pay, and grab your coffee fast. These people simply walk in and walk out. The parking can be a bit hectic in this lot so be careful if you're pulling in fast. If you're looking to get some work done there are plenty of outlets and tables, and I noticed that the wifi is reasonably fast also. You do not need a password, the google starbucks wifi should pop up immediately when you open your internet browser (people ask me about this all the time). Hope this helps! read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

I like coffee black. That way I can taste what I order. And a good coffee bean is key to manifested deliciousness. My previous history with Starbucks neglected this important ingredient, hence leaving me sour, bitter and feeling a little burnt. Then the Clover was introduced. The Clover, for those that know not, is somewhat of the barrista's industrial arch nemesis. I remember a cartoon of Paul bunion and his blue ox becoming obsolete by the scrawny inventor who created the chainsaw. I always felt bad and sided myself with the bunions of the world but for this machine at its convenient local to my work, and my desire for the tasty rawness of really good coffee, I'll make excpection. The machine is a coffee brewing machine that uses very precise timing and water temperature in specific to the type of coffee and amount of bean used for each cup it brews. Through a vacuum press the exact bean-age, weighed by each barista... ish, is steeped and pressed creating a unique cup of coffee everytime. And the thing is consistant. The downside is no free refills and the price per cup is a bit steeper than the regular pikes place or Verona offered on the daily in their drips thermoses. The other great thing about this is that the choice between beans offers very significant options in regards to the flavor and body of the coffee. If I don't enjoy the Colombian El Piño I ordered today, tomorrow I could give their Colombian Montebonito or the Nicaraguan Cabo Azul a taste. With a plethora of different beans and the ability to craft each cup with a professional barista's expertise, Starbucks has found a way to compete with the good coffee makers of the world. However, I've only been to a couple of Starbucks that actually have this machine. Proving it's scarcity, I will stay skeptical of venturing to an unknown Starbucks but if the Clover is at work, I'd gladly enter mouth coffeeing. read more

Starbucks - Small batch coffee of my day made out of the Clover, Starbucks answer for a barista... - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

As much as I love me some Starbucks, this is not one of my favorite locations, and I am a regular there! I know, right? Basically it was the closest one to work, and many early mornings the only place open. The staff needs to work on its friendliness, and the seating is so sparse here its annoying. Its less than a downtown coffee shop, and more just a higher-class Dunkin. I wish they would improve the atmosphere. read more

This is one hopping Starbucks... Seems to be a favorite of students, business folk, and locals on foot. There is no drive though, so you gotta fight for a parking space in the relatively small lot or slide over to Mellow Mushrooom and find a space. This location has a rather small and cramped feeling about the layout, but there is something truly hip about the long, thick wooden bar in the middle of the room. People gather around with their laptops, elbow to elbow in a sort of community workspace. I honestly haven't seen anything like it at any other Starbucks. It's really unique! There are a few tables that line the walls of the main area. Most of them are set-up as two-seaters. You can pull some chairs around but more than four and you'll be awfully squished. Still, you'll get the same great coffee and the same efficient service the you find at most every Starbucks in the area. read more

Starbucks - Frappuccino cookie & PGTL - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

"Starbucks is Starbucks wherever you go Expensive, noisy, only a stone's throw- -From better coffee shops Raleighites should know." This is probably the smallest Starbucks I've ever visited. I go here occasionally when I desire caffeine, especially their green coffee in a can. The parking lot is small and many pushy SUV drivers lumber past me when I darken their doorway. I'd avoid this place in the morning and at rush hour, but at night it's perfectly placid. I wouldn't mind if they turned down the music or tried a bit of jazz or classical- how can people concentrate with reggae on?(I just wanna groove!) Also does anyone see the irony in listening to it in Starbucks of all places?! Since the renovation it's lovely, although the seating area is minuscule, and appears diminished. And who wants to sit at a long table surrounded by other people? I love having my own table most of the time. If you need room to spread out, head to the Starbucks connected to the Harris Teeter in Cameron Village or your local indie coffee shop (Check my other reviews). Hint: After hours there is extra/free parking in the Peace St Inspection lot! Be careful crossing the street though, I lost an earring there and a car zoomed by before I could dare look for it. read more

Starbucks - It was just ordinary, no frills coffee. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

First off this shop is tucked away on a busy street, which is fine. When I choose a Starbucks it's because I want a fast coffee and maybe breakfast sandwich. If you want something similar don't choose this location, it is not equipped with a dive thru. The staff was nice one guy (I assume the shift manager) was taking the verbal orders and directing the barista while telling the girl at the register what to type in. The shift manager was kind enough to make a recommendation, while jumping in to help the other barista fill orders. The drinks were just fine, but I also ordered a breakfast ciabatta and a breakfast square. I got two ciabatta sandwiches, which okay I can understand maybe I wasn't clear. I got the drinks packed back into my car and took a bite of my still semi frozen sandwich. At this point I am not getting back out of my car to wait again. I threw them in the microwave at home so my girl friend didn't have to have a frozen surprise. I get it, it's summer time and most people want iced drinks, but sandwiches.. Recap, nice people, okay drinks, no drive thru, frozen sandwiches. I'll just stick with the small local shops. read more

Some of the servant here have a really bad attitude. They do not do what you asked for immediately. Once, I asked for a cup of water, they took forever to give me one. I do not think this is a great place for good services. read more

My favorite Starbucks location! Have been coming here almost every morning for the past almost-3 years. (Jeez, really?) The staff known me by name and are very nice and respectful.

This Starbucks has a Clover machine - that should be all you need to get you excited. At the time of this review, the only other Starbucks store in Raleigh with a Clover is at North Hills. So what's all the fuss? If you've never had coffee from a Clover machine, you really need to try it. I won't try to explain it, you can read about the process here. It's actually interesting to watch. http://www.starbucks.com/coffee/learn/clover It's delicious - and tastes nothing like the regular Starbucks blends, which to me, can be a bit harsh. Just order one of the reserve coffees and see what I mean. read more

Since moving to the South from the Northwest, my Starbucks experience has been an adjustment to say the least. This Starbucks in Raleigh however, was an exception to the rule.

I like this Starbucks location for the most part. The food and coffee are consistently good. In general, the staff is efficient and keeps the lines moving.

I regret to write my visit here again confirms my disappointment in Starbucks as a quality coffee shop. Their Blue Mountain Coffee I am sure was only a blend. The server didn't know and the printed description gave no indication. I am sure the buyers mixed a little Blue Mountain with mostly cheaper beans. The overpriced drink tasted just average Joe and left me feeling very jittery for two hours after. The one star goes to the social gathering and the pretty young server. read more
