This Starbucks location is located on Van Oldenbarneveltplaats in Rotterdam, right next to Primark, it is probably the largest Starbucks in the city, with two floors of seating, including a couple of tables outside. I also found this to be the cheapest Starbucks in the centre of Rotterdam, my drink cost €5.75 here, compared to €6.15 - €6.35 at other locations across the city. Still slightly more expensive than the UK, but the difference only worked out to around 17 cents, so nothing to complain about there... just an interesting observation.
There was a good amount of seating, including comfortable seating, as you'd expect from a store of its' size, with both a lift and stairs between the two floors.
The service was quick and friendly, the barista even wrote a nice note on my cup "Enjoy Your Day" which was a nice gesture. I also enjoyed sharing a laugh with a barista as he attempted to chase a pigeon out of the store.
I ordered a Venti Iced Toffee Nut Latte, my drink was fairly good, and the drink was slightly creamier, compared to the stronger coffee taste I like, but I still enjoyed it.
It can get a little chilly inside, as they tend to keep the door open here, even in Winter, and queues can get a little long at times, due to the central location for the city's shops and attractions.
