I saw great teamwork when I came into this store, the employees all got along and worked together very well. Very positive vibes amazing service and quick to get my coffee. When I came in it wasn't very busy and there was a lot of employees working but you could tell they were recovering from a rush. read more

What a great Starbucks to swing by whether you are on your way to the beach or the freeway! The employees are always quick and efficient and always have smiles on their faces. Great way to get my caffeine kick when in Cali.!! read more

Starbucks is Starbucks right? Coffee should be consistent at any SB. I tend to only post reviews if I've had excellent service, or had poor service. This place is the latter. The problem with this one is every time I go, something is wrong with my coffee. First time it's too watery. Second time, it's too much sweetener in the iced coffee. Oh and what's up with the baristas? Can they at least give you the same type of service that you come to expect at a Starbucks? Call out my name when my order is ready so I don't have to go up and ask myself. Don't throw my food on the counter and expect me to pick it up like I'm some kind of dog. Try act like you don't hate your job. I get way better service from Starbucks in Inglewood. The only reason I came was because it's convenient on my commute route. I'm sure I can find a better pit stop with better coffee & nicer service. read more

I'll start by saying that I love Starbucks. They consistently make high quality and delicious drinks. The baristas are knowledgable and can handle a lot of different types if customers. What bothers me about this Starbucks is the parking and the seating arrangements. Neither are ideal. For some reason, no one can park straight. For a busy location, they have limited seating. Otherwise great. The baristas are friendly and do a great job making the perfect drink or experience. read more

The lady at the register was named Darian or something and she was extremely rude. We sat waiting for our drinks for 25 minutes and finally the last said, "by the way your drinks are up." Not only did they not call our names, but they didn't ask what we were eating for even when we stood by the counter. We didn't ask because we didn't want to be rude and thought they were busy. read more

This is an ok place to go for you typical Frappe! But I would much prefer something with a little more in it! It's fast food for coffee! The coffee is always too strong or sugary! If I were you I would go to a privately owned coffee shop!! You have a way better chance at getting somthing better. But hey if you wanna wait 30 minutes do your over priced coffee go for it. read more

Let's start with this, I LOVE STARBUCKS!! Now that's outta my system, we shall move on. I work in the medical center next to the building where this Starbucks is, so I'm a frequent customer. The staff is warm, welcoming and very attentive. Maybe I'm a bit biased when it comes to reviewing Starbucks, but so far I have never had any bad experience with them, and considering how many times I have been there, the possibility of them messing up my order is pretty high. I have nothing but good things to say about this Starbucks! read more

I always come to this starbucks because the service is amazing! The supervisor Steven R is always on top of everything and does his best to make everyone feel welcomed and drinks are always made perfectly. The store is always clean and service is fast but quality. Both Steven R and Steven P keep me coming back to this starbucks instead of the other starbucks that may be closer to my home. Every time i'm in san clemente I always come to this location over the PCH & Granada starbucks where i have had issues before and had to complain as well as the starbucks in grocery stores around here where it feels less personalized because both Stevens make it feel like i'm family. If I could give it more than five stars, I would!! read more

The greatest service EVER!!! The Baristas are exceptional, the environment has a warm vibe, upbeat conversations and a great local meeting spot for meetings. Top Notch all the Way!! read more

Best Starbucks anywhere! Quick service, always consistent mochas and lattes. I made a mistake on an order once, and it was replaced. Awesome. read more

No respect for people time here. I waited 14 minutes for a latte that was sitting on the counter for I don't know how long because the barista never called my name or order. I was also given the WRONG loaf. Honestly disappointed. Wasted my entire lunch break for coffee and piece of nasty bread. read more

I wouldn't recommend coming in the afternoon, there is a girl who works here who isn't very friendly. The first 2 times I came in I just thought maybe she was having an off day but after the fourth time I just honestly think it's her personality not very friendly or welcoming at all. Today when I went in I ordered a brownie and all the places I've been they are very good at asking if I'd like it heated up. I ordered my stuff scanned my card and then she just walked away no thank you or we will have your order ready at the bar. Then she just threw my brownie on the counter and was very rude. I'll stick with the morning people they are way way nicer and friendly. read more

I love this Starbucks. I love the community vibe, the personality, the down-home goodness. These people have it down to a science. Everyone is perfectly placed; the cashiers are quick as is the drink maker. The lines are always expedited and everyone knows each customer by name. It's great for people watching, studying, catching up with a friend, etc. LOVE LOVE LOVE it here! read more

I have always loved stopping at this Starbuck as I travel from OC to Carlsbad. I always look forward to making my stop there to use the facilities and get a good cup of coffee... The people are always friendly and fun... Until last night. I stopped in, first use the bathroom, and then for a great cup of coffee... Well... things have changed... Must stand in line, buy a cup of coffee first, then get the security code to use the bathroom. I personally do not like to take my coffee to the bathroom, I am not just off the beach or the street...I am a professional and appear so. I am disappointed at the rudeness about the bathroom, I will be stopping again in San Clemente, but will not stop at Starbucks... Sorry guys!!!! I have been stopping in your store sense you opened... read more

No sense or urgency. I have gone in a few times since their remodel and there is an "older" staff working the 6am-9am time slot, where its mostly people grabbing their coffee as they are going to work. They have 2 cashiers but only 1 barista (coffee maker). It is never packed or super busy but yet it takes forever to get you 1 grande mocha. The lady today working "the machine" was smiling and chit chatting with people but at the expense of being quick & efficient. For overpriced coffee and coffee drinks its no longer worth my time & money to go here. The inside is nice and the staff is friend. The parking is quick in and out all leading up to a long wait with no reason for it. read more

There was a hair in my kid's chocolate chip cookie. I never expected that from them. The one star is just me trying to be nice.

I had a bagel and a iced tea was very good but when i went back to get another drink i was waiting for my drink a ling time . And noticed people that ordered after me were geting served first . Not very fair i left and went else were read more

we weren't the easiest customers, but Tasha stayed loyal through it all. she is also very nice. ps Tasha - i am digging ur purple/blue hair read more

Starbucks is Starbucks so I'll skip the coffee review and focus on atmosphere. The plus- Great people watching. All kinds of people-surfers, soccer moms, students, construction guys. The patio is great when its not too cold outside. Since it's close to the ocean, its rarely too hot to do so. The not so so plus- Parking lot has small spaces and they are limited as they are not just for Starbucks but several other shops as well. Lunch time is the worst part of the day to find a space here. Picture dueling SUV's and XL construction trucks. Tip-If you see a space on the street, take it instead of turning into the crowded parking lot. WIFI has always been solid for me at this location. read more

This place is always slow. It seems that service has gone down since they've introduced the mobile ordering. I waited 20 minutes for a coffee this morning. All I ordered was a grande misto. The people who were standing in line behind me got their drinks before I did. Complete lack of organization, and customer service has gone down the drain. Think I'll start going to Albertsons for my coffee. At least at Peet's when they go slow they offer you a free drink. Here they are Unapologetic read more

The barista team at this Starbucks location are amazing! I am in love with the Salted Cream Cold Brew (mainly the salted cream, not so much the coffee ) I always ask for extra cream/foam and the employees here never hesitate to add extra. Isabelle awesome young lady who totally made my week by giving me extra foam. I can tell you I never leave this place without a smile read more

I like the location of this Starbucks, but sometimes they don't make my coffee right. The nice thing is that they always offer to make it again at no charge, so I still recomended this place. read more

Ally is so friendly ! She's always take care about my order very well, the another staffs are nice and friendly as well ! Love this place

I wish baristas were consistently good, but they're not. Drinks are blah in taste here (very berry hibiscus, cinnamon dolce latte) or way too coffee strong (skinny vanilla latte). They're S L O W to do anything, and the older cashier has attitude that comes off as rude. read more

Awesome staff, on top of their game! Always friendly and courteous. You have to love the consistency Starbucks provides.

Went yesterday, they were out of Mango Dragonfruit but Amy, the barista, recommended a replacement that turned out to be just as good! Amazing service! read more

The baristas at this location are always friendly (well, most of them). I have no complaints about their drink making. Even though the Starbucks on El Camino Real is closer to where we live, we always drive to this location. read more

Ok, everyone knows Starbucks. I would simply add that this is an above average one. It's new, the barista's are kids, but seem to hold it together. They always give me the extra shot when I ask for three, and they are consistent. I recommend this one. On Starbucks coffee in general: It's not Dunkin Donuts or Keans, but it's quality. read more

Just giving a shout out to the guy Matt who was a 1 man show on drinks with 2 baristas taking orders and a line circling the store. Sure, the last drink I needed got back burnered a little but life happens. Watching him juggle the drinks was worth the wait. In a sea of young employees that don't give a crap to hustle a little, it was nice to see this little group being such a team. Couldn't see the bright blondes name tag but she was also running back and forth and squeezed me in an ice water while I waited. My last few visits to a Starbucks weren't nearly this level of service. read more

Best starbucks I've ever been to, courteous staff, mellow place to hangout and do work in, it's a very welcoming place! All starbucks should take notice, this is how you do it. You guys rock! read more

Good service, mostly consistent taste in my orders. Clean space and supplies are always full. Only issue I have is that my order is occasionally forgotten during busy times of the day. But for the most part I've always had a good experience. The staff knows my name to my face which is convenient. read more

I've been in Starbucks all over the country. This one has the nicest atmosphere, the cleanest seating area, and the most efficient and friendly staff I've ever seen. It is obvious that their manager works hard to make this a homey, yet customer-oriented store. I visit San Clemente quite often and I always make it a point to visit this Starbucks. The only problem is that this one is SO nice that it spoils me for the one at home. Thank you! I will always recommend this Starbucks to everyone! Good service goes along way in my book! read more

9 times out of 10 I have no issues with the Baristas, but Alison needs to concentrate more on making drinks than socializing with everyone on the store. read more

Staff is friendly and does a great job getting your drink out. Some of the customers can be rude, I had a guy step on my foot and he never said, "Excuse me." The store is very clean, sometimes customers drop trash on the floor or leave straw wrappers on the bar; I guess they don't see the trash cans or expect the workers to constantly pick up after them. Best Starbucks in San Clemente. read more

There is a barista that works here named Scott, and he makes this Starbucks as good as it is. If it wasn't for him, it wouldn't be that good. He always remembers your name, your drink, has it ready for you quick, and so nice and personable. A much valued part of Starbucks. I hope the company appreciates him as much as his customers. read more

This isn't the biggest Starbucks location but the setup is cute. There is actually a large community table that is usually decorated with nice flowers or whatever suits the holiday season. There are a few 4 person tables outside so that's nice. Parking can be physically tight here as the spaces are skinnier than usual. It gets real busy during lunch time as well because of all the small restaurants surrounding it. The crowd is usually parents and professionals with a few Juicy Couture wearing OC moms. read more

Great staff, always super friendly. Very good about getting drinks just right. Super pleased with this location!

This starbucks is my absolute favorite! My drink comes out perfect every time and the employees always make me feel at home. Today Steven R and Steven P went above and beyond to make sure my experience was nothing short of perfect. Steven R is always on top of everything and a great multitasker as a supervisor. The store is always spotless. I will always go out of my way to visit this location. Keep up the great work guys and thanks for making me feel like family read more

Loved my visit to this particular Starbucks. Cathy was so kind! Always making sure everyone is taken care of. Really felt like a stand out experience to me. JD also agreed. read more

They need to step up their bagel game. Otherwise it's just Starbucks where everything costs fourbucks.
