On a recent visit to the Presidio to check out Lucasfilm and new general store nearby, we wanted to stop in for some cold drinks. This is a typical Starbucks store with small interior. There's no special merchandise outside of the California and San Francisco items. The baristas were very friendly, drinks made to the typical quality. They do have a lot of outdoor seating, both in the sun and the shade. They also have clean bathrooms, which are necessary as there are no other public ones in this area. read more

I came by to Presidio to check out Lucasfilms. Before heading out, I stopped in here to get my usual tall flat white and the bacon & Gruyère egg bites. It was a short wait before my food and coffee was ready. I found an open small table to eat the egg bites and drink my coffee before heading out. It was quite crowded, so as soon as I got up, someone snagged the table. read more

Great location, simple interior and exterior. An opportunity missed here. Great staff, great people. Same good Starbucks. But could really have an update on the looks. Great for locals, students, tourists, visitors. Simple breakfast food, standard Starbucks stuff. read more

This Starbucks is conveniently located in the Presidio. Plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the beautiful surroundings on clear and warmer days. The interior is spacious and offers ample seating also. Two separate multi-user men and women's restrooms. The staff was friendly and efficient. read more

Starbucks - View from the patio toward the Palace of Fine Arts - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Always busy, but really welcoming, kind staff who go out of their way to make tasty drinks and ensure you have a good experience!

Nice to find a star bucks here. On a Sunday, around 2 pm, we ordered a mocha. The cashier Tony, seemed to be lackadasical. The guy with the gruff tone seemed to emulate a crusty sailor. My mocha was a bit sugary; and, at $5.65, kinda spendy. Decor: it's a very nice store with a choice view. read more

Super friendly staff and great coffee! Bathroom available to customers only and they are clean.

So I've been to a lot of Starbucks around the bay and this one is Super awesome, they always makess my drinks perfect! Definitely good attentive service as well! read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Love this spot but I'm giving it 2 stars because there is an asian girl with a ponytail who is extremely unfriendly and rude. I understand being busy as they often are but she always appears put off and snappy. I used to be a waitress and if you are going to work in customer service and with people, you need to have a better personality. I've gone in several times and her shitty personality is the exact same. She makes you feel completely unwelcome to the point, I don't trust her to make my drink. My friends and I will go elsewhere read more

Service is slow, the staff are lazy and unhelpful, and they denied me as a disabled person to use the bathroom 10 minutes before the store closed. These people should these people should all lose their jobs. read more

Quick service, friendly baristas, and well made coffees!! I got a classic iced vanilla latte and it was delicious and ready super quickly. I love this location because they have a really nice outdoor seating area, string wifi if you need to work, and a great view of the park. Would definitely recommend! read more

Starbucks - Iced vanilla latte to get through the day! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

I don't usually pay attention to service when it comes to dining out or purchasing food or drinks but this time the lack of service quality is way too annoying. When I go to Starbucks I'm typically asked my name (if they don't get that information already in some other way like from the reward program) and when they take my order they usually will ask about the size of the drink I'd like. I never gave much thought about the importance of that until today at this particular Starbucks when they didn't ask for that information. I assumed that they might have got my name from my credit card and the drink I ordered maybe only comes with one size - until I kept waiting for my drink for more than 15 minutes without hearing anything about the readiness of it even though I stood next to the pickup counter all the time, and when I finally got my drink (which turned out to be ready a while ago) I saw that there was no name associated with it and the name of the drink was written in a way that's not easily recognizable - that's why I stood next to it thinking it's someone else's order. Furthermore I was expecting a tall size because the last time I had this drink it was a tall one - but it came in grande size, they must just assume that I want a grande one? To be fair this Starbucks has a great location - I enjoyed its surrounding area of Presidio. But they really need to train their staff before putting them to work. read more

You know that I don't really like Starbooks...Starsucks..Starf***. Okay, so today I was going to play tennis and wanted to change scenery by going out to the Presidio. I have never actually been to this Starbucks and had anything. I decided to have a mango dragonfruit refresher tea. Overpriced for the size and too much ice. It was okay, but uh..why bother. Well, just to write a Yelp review for this StarSUCKS! You can hang out in this Starbucks okay. It's for the working people. read more

Starbucks - Dragonfruit - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

#83! I was very surprised to find out when you Yelp "Starbucks in San Francisco" this particular location comes up as number 83! Granted it is not in a particularly high traffic area and it is a bit hidden in that you have to know about the location ! But it is in the most beautiful surroundings of any Starbucks to which I have ever been. Smack dab in the Presidio bordering the Marina District of SF. Think beautiful water features, lots of trees, greenery... nothing short of feeling like you have been transported to a Zen meditation retreat! I could also describe it as a very, very mini Japanese Tea Garden feel (without the admission fee) if you have ever visited that beautiful place in San Francisco. I am usually here on weekends so the hustle and bustle of the 8 to 5 work routine is nonexistent. I read a lot of the Yelp reviewers make note of the high volume traffic at this Starbucks during work hours... Monday through Friday. And I surmise from that, and their one star reviews, that it can get pretty ugly :-) ..lots of people wanting their coffee with stressed out Baristas. So my solid 5-star review is based on visiting this particular Starbucks during weekends and holidays. If you find yourself wandering around the Marina District near the Palace of Fine Arts and you want a quiet moment and a cup of coffee ... treat yourself with this beautiful park-like setting. Dog friendly and kid friendly ....both the Starbucks and the park :-). You can enjoy the Starbucks' outside or indoor seating but I prefer to wander the park and find a bench where I can bask in nature and the beauty of it all. Also noteworthy... the restrooms in the Starbucks' building are really, really nice!!! And no codes....you don't even have to enter the Starbucks to use the restrooms (men and women).... shhh...secret! read more

Not just any Starbucks...this particular one is located within George Lucas's Letterman Center and caters to the people who work for Lucasfilm, ILM, and Lucasarts - I guess the Star Wars toys and trinkets that adorn a good area of the front area really give that away. Still, the baristas are really nice, the place is clean and beautiful, and the park nearby is gorgeous...I loved grabbing a iced white chocolate mocha and taking pictures of the golden gate bridge in the distance. read more

Starbucks - The baristas here sure have a sense of humor. Isn't the stormtrooper on the right a bit short? =) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

The staff at this Starbucks are so kind and on point. This wonderful space and these sweet folks more than make up for Starbucks' burnyass coffee. read more

Great for convenience but watch out for the barista who upsells you without clearly saying there's a charge. Example: I asked for oatmeal with all the fixings. She asked if I want blueberries too and was not clear that this was an add-on charge and even told me that this was the fruit for the oatmeal. Misleading. read more

Beautiful location in the Presidio. Service is variable, depending on the personality and work ethic of the individual behind the counter. There are excellent staff here, but I no longer buy coffee from this location, because there are some staff who are poorly trained, are rude and have poor work ethic, making for an unpleasant experience. I'll buy my daily cup of coffee elsewhere and bring it to the Presidio to enjoy. read more

such a lovely spot! Very peaceful and lots of outdoor space to do work! Wasn't too busy and got my drink quick

I come here regularly and it's always busy. Today it's a light morning with probably 10 customers and 3 workers. While I like the ambience, I've got today that this Starbucks has lost its luster with me. This is not the local, small friendly days of past. No hello, no thank you. What do you want? Anything else? Barney would definitely not stand for this Starbucks. What happened to "Please and Thank you?" read more

A very well dressed group of women (coming from a wedding) dropped about $80 at this location and sat at the long main table in the middle of the store in the middle of the day on Saturday. We were boisterous and chatty and having loads of fun when "Ryan" came over and asked us to quiet down because something something "other customers" something, considerate, thank you. I looked around and outside of the other customers who were talking to us and singing along to a song, no one else seemed particularly interested in us. Apparently "Ryan" was tho. I wondered if it was because there were several black women in our group because lord knows black people in Starbucks are plain terrifying. I have added a picture for context. We obviously were made to feel unwelcome and quickly left. Be careful if you want to have too much fun at this location. Especially while black. read more

All the workers seems not really in a happy moody day. That doesn't make me feel comfort in their place to relax. The bottle of Half & half was empty, I went to front to request for more. That Asian girl pulled out and slammed on the counter and walked away. I was like okay thank you. Not a friendly stafs in that workplace!!!! read more

I love this Starbucks. It's different than the others as it has a lot of seating inside and outside and you can't go wrong being surrounded by the pretty presidio exterior! My bf tends to sit here on the weekends me and my crazy bff go on our semi-annual half marathon runs. What I like about this spot is the bathrooms are also large and clean. Can't beat a place to clean up after a run! Also folks here tend to not be the stinky kind as my bf has mentioned to me on occasions when he'd have to sit at other SF Starbucks locations where the homeless wander in. read more

Picture it: I walk into this Starbucks wanting my usual. My usual which involves blending coffee and sugar and ice together to create a magnificent scrumptious enchantment of caffeine, a resonance of pure bliss, turning dragons into kittens, akin to gold for the soul. And all the blenders are broken. Because hell is real folks, hell is real. read more

Although I'm mad at starbucks for shutting down la boulange, they have quick and convenient spinach feta wraps (which they offer with lil siracha packets now!) Also can't beat the service here, they're always so awesome! Esp the guy with the cool hair and plugs. read more

This place has character. I redeemed my birthday drink at this Starbucks location last year and boy, did they make it interesting! When I ordered and showed them my Starbucks app, the cashier said happy birthday, asked for my name and wrote on the cup. Standard procedure. When my drink was ready, the barista yelled out, "Sandy, the birthday girl!" Wide-eyed and confused, I slowly walk over to get my drink. Two random strangers even said, "happy birthday! We're going to embarrass you now!" Aaahhh, *dies-as-I-find-my-seat-and-try-to-act-casual read more

Favorite Starbucks locay! Absolutely love the location and views from here. The outdoor seating area is beautiful and the access to this Starbucks is lovely too. Always our go-to coffee fix whenever we're around the Golden Gate. You can see the palace of fine arts from here! And the cafe isn't usually crowded like the other ones. read more

This is a Starbucks in a beautiful spot. The downside is that the parking lot is controlled by some agro parking attendants. I was meeting some clients for a meeting which ran a little late. Not that long. When I came outside the parking attendant was making a little TOW sign for my motorcycle and was smiling at me like a escapee from a insanasylum. "stick around, you already have a ticket and now you are getting towed" He lectured me about respecting the rules, etc. The lot was half full at best. Just be careful if you park in the only parking nearby. I guess this was meant to be a private starbucks for the local Presidio folks. read more

This Starbucks is on the Lucasfilms HQ campus in the Presidio. It has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Views sitting outdoor are beautiful. You can even see the Palace of Fine Arts from here. The staff was friendly and service was fast. The bathrooms here are also clean when we came in here for a pit stop. We didn't stay long to actually sit and rest, but if you are in the area and need a caffeine fix, this is your go to place! read more

This has to rate as one of the best Starbucks anywhere. An open secret among locals, you might never think to look for one in this spot, a converted military complex amid the sprawling Presidio, now housing Lucas digital media wizardry among other things. There's no big green Starbucks sign, just a couple normal signs with arrows directing you to building A, B, C, D -- or Starbucks. Tell the parking attendant at the gate that's why you're here. Look for the Yoda fountain to the left of the entrance. The Force Awakens here -- with the help of a double or quad espresso. Take your selfie before heading to the rear of the building where coffee awaits. Grab a rare outdoor table if it's a rare warm sunny day. Take a stroll on the beautiful grounds and enjoy views of the domed Palace of Fine Arts and beyond. Pro tip: It's not a bad walk (less than a mile, easy downhill) down the path to the beach at Crissy Field. Also, it's a Starbucks, with all that entails. With parking. In San Francisco. Despite rumors to the contrary, it has free wifi ("Google Starbucks"). I make a habit of going to this one every time I find myself in that part of town. Like many parts of the Presidio and Golden Gate Park, it's a soothing bucolic retreat from the madding city crowds. Enjoy! read more

This Starbucks is by far the dirtiest I've ever been in. I live in the Presidio and now that Transit cafe is closed this is the only other easy option for coffee. Unfortunately besides being filthy the baristas make terrible coffee as well. This is the 3rd Sunday in a row that I've visited (hoping I'd just hit a random fluke) and it's been the same each week. Plus no milk, no sugar, no napkins this week. I had to as the counter staff who were just standing around talking and seemed annoyed at my request. It's a shame too as locationwise this Starbucks has a prime spot in the Presidio! read more

A few items I hope the manager of this location sees and corrects 1- with the recent events around Corona Virus, it's absolutely ridiculous that you serve drinks with no lids (leaving them on the counter unattended) 2- You aren't allowed by Starbucks policy to serve hot drinks without sleeves 3- Your bathrooms were disgusting. Understanding they are bathrooms, the smell was horrendous. You had stagnate water caused by a sink being clogged and literally a falling apart cabinet. For such a beautiful area, it was a very unacceptable experience. That being said - the employees were nice. read more

Probably the best Starbucks I've ever been to (and I used to live two blocks from Pike Place in Seattle, the first Starbucks store). The location is perfect if you have a dog and it's far enough off the beaten track that you have plenty of outdoor options when it comes to enjoying your tasty beverage. The one downside here is that their opening hours are kind of bizarre. There are plenty of people that would go here late in the evening but they seem obsessed with closing early. Unless you've lived on the moon for the past 10 years there's nothing more I can say about this Starbucks except that this is a good location. read more
