The best Starbucks here. Always friendly even during super busy times, write the nicest things on the cups, fast and reliable mobile order, love it read more

We needed a quick coffee and breakfast. I placed an order on the Starbucks app for pick up. Our order was ready when we picked it up. Service was extremely fast here which was awesome. We ordered two bacon, Gouda and egg sandwiches, potato cheddar chive bake, a grande cappuccino and a pumpkin spice latte. The sandwiches were just okay, not the best. The potato chive and cheddar bake was surprisingly good. The cappuccino was great. The pumpkin spice latte tasted really bad. I'm not sure what happened but I can't order that again, because of how bad it was. read more

I've given this location multiple chances, but unfortunately my experiences have been consistently disappointing. Most recently, I ordered an iced quad espresso with extra ice. As shown in the photos, there was barely any ice in the cup. Because of that, the drink was not even cold and actually felt warm, which completely defeats the purpose of ordering an iced drink. What's more frustrating is that this is not a one time issue. Every time I stop by, the service and overall vibe feel off, and simple requests are often missed or ignored. I understand things can get busy, but attention to detail matters, especially when customers are paying for customizations. I just want my drink made the way it was ordered. Hoping to see improvement in both service and consistency. read more

I genuinely love this place. They are always so nice there and never fail to put a smile on my face. My daughter goes almost every day to this Starbucks. Although to me it seems like an addiction, she loves it and claims that their drinks are top quality. When I finally tried this location for myself, I totally agreed with my daughter. Ever since, I have been going frequently! To conclude my yelp review, this location has an "aesthetic" (as the teens these days like to say) ambiance. - Bob S. read more

Tracy is the rudest person I have ever interacted with. The worst part is she is a MANAGER. I ordered a sandwich and a cup of water. She refused to give me the water she made me wait for over 20minutes for no reason when there was nobody else in the store and even stopped another employee from giving me the water I ordered. She actually took the water out of the hand of the other employee and put it on a shelf so I couldn't get it. She is incredibly prejudice and cruel. read more

I'm coming to this store since 2020. The store experience improved enoromously to greater good due to sweet staff and great manager. I congratulate all your starbucks team for gaining greater traction in the last 1 to 2 years. I enjoy coming daily twice to your store, and it's all because of your team. Sweetest staff & great Love, T read more

Starbucks - Very very clean place - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

I just tried asking for a cup of water and I know the rule has changed for people who have purchased something but because I purchased a $150 gift card a half hour earlier I thought it would be okay. the barista said her name was Janae and she refused to give me a cup of water. I even pleaded as I left asking because it's 88 degrees and my dog was overheating I wanted the ice water for her. she still doubled down and refused. I know for a fact that they can still give you water if it's an emergency but because I also made a purchase they shouldn't have refused. She just did it to be mean, it was so rude and unnecessary to refuse to give me water. She said I had to have ordered the water when I bought the gift card. I'll never come to this Starbucks again .. Starbucks do better. read more

Starbucks has been a go to on the go and stopped by for a coffee before meeting with a friend. This spot is near Trinidad and Camden Avenue. The staff are really nice and got the coffee order perfectly no complaints. I got an order of vanilla sweet nitro cold brew and I find that this location has a pretty good flavor to coffee ratio. Added an extra shot for a nice touch for the morning, got a grande for a boost. Will be back when am in the area! Enso forever. Almaden Expressway. Almaden library.

Literally the worst Starbucks experience. No one in line in front of us but waited 15 minutes for one drink as they filled mobile orders at a snail's pace. Baristas never acknowledged us even though we were standing right in front of them. I understand why Starbucks are closing stores. read more

Have always received stellar service here, and the store is always clean, organized, and cool. They are quick and friendly and my drink is always made correctly. They recently updated their hours and now close at 7! Take advantage, Almaden! read more

we got there and placed an order and proceeded to wait 15 minutes for our order to come out ( one drink one sandwich both were regular menu items with no customizations) while they made mobile orders while we were waiting as the people that placed the mobile orders were not there. i would not recommend this starbucks to anyone. read more

This place used to be my favorite one. Actually it depends who preparares your drink. I wanted to try a new one and I payed for water (I even asked little ice in my drink, concerned about it), just go for a traditional coffee if you don't want to waste your money. read more

Starbucks - I asked for little ice for my drink - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Amazing Starbucks Location, I'm a daily regular on my commute into the city. If I had to make a complaint I would say that I was a little uncomfortable a few weeks ago when I overheard one of the baristas using a homophobic epithet and discussing something called "pegging" her boyfriend. I googled this and hey good for you but probably not the best thing to say to customers. Also shoutout to my Bailey and my fellow customer Aniruddha who's always very friendly in the mornings. read more

A nice enough place. No drive-through. I've ordered there over a dozen times and never has my drink been incorrect. This location tends to be a little busier than some other locations I've been to. read more

Worst Starbucks I have ever been to. The employees are terrible. Not friendly at all. Multiple times they have accepted my order on the app and when I show up they are closed. When I've tried to get my refund ... they ignore me and pretend like I'm not even there. The worst! read more

This is one of my favorite locations to work from. Very spacious, a lot of tables and good vibe. Good service and good drinks.

I want to acknowledge barista Laura for an incident that occurred on Sunday afternoon (7/25). My wife and I were enjoying our drinks with another couple when it became apparent a woman sitting nearby was in distress. She had fallen and had what appeared to be minor injuries. The bigger issue seemed to be that she has some serious personal/emotional issues. Laura came out to see what was going on and she spoke with her. She showed her kindness and compassion. As the conversation progressed, it became apparent that the victims needs were well past our ability to help. Laura called 911 and EMT's showed up in just a few minutes. The took over and took her away. Showing strangers (the women in distress was not a Starbucks customer) kindness, caring and compassion should never be taken for granted. So, I'd like to post a "job well done" to Laura. Let us all remember to show kindness and compassion to a stranger who needs it. read more

This is always one of the slower Starbucks, but today was the worst ever. Went in at noon and were the only customers in the store. There were FIVE staff, including the manager. Three, including the manager, were just standing around chatting while the other two made drinks at a snail's pace. we waited almost 15 minutes for 2 easy drinks. Pretty poor management and customer service! read more

I had the worst experience in this Starbucks today. The employees were so rude. No idea why. Also there were flies all over the food in the display case. Health violation! We will not be returning to this Starbucks. read more

Came in for the first time this morning around 10:40am ish. Looked busy but I was lucky to get in before the line. Just wanted to comment that Spencer was EFFICIENT and super kind. Greeted me as he was multi tasking and while I was waiting to place order. When done he said he could now give his undivided attention (it was genuine and I believed him and he did give me his undivided attention and proceeded to be quick, efficient, and had the best and warm personality. It was literally the briefest interaction but something about it made an impact and lasting impression. I appreciate kind, hard working employees. I wouldn't be surprised if he was the manager but either way, appreciated the kindness on a personal tough morning for me! read more

I am constantly saying, "I'm done with Starbucks", but today's visit to this location sealed the deal. First, the bathrooms . The condition is exactly why women want their own restrooms. There was so much urine circling the base of the toilet, I had to use seat covers on the ground, then tiptoed onto that to sit down. Then I go out to wait for my drink where the high school girl wasted so much time prepping a sample drink while talking to her vulgar friend who walked in just to chat w her. Finally my drink is served up and it sucks. Most Starbucks are pathetic and this one is on the low end of those. read more

Some of the baristas have been here since my high school days! I love visiting this Starbucks after I do my dry cleaning next door or finish some grocery shopping at Safeway. PROS: - Clean interior (Use the back tables to study because it can get quite loud in the front on the sofa couches.) + nice outdoor seating - Free wifi (like every Starbux you know) + free charging pods/portals - Fast service (I always get my drink pretty quickly, and if you want to modify your drink in any way (less sugar, more ice etc.) the baristas are really accommodating.) - Staff is A+++ (and I've been to my fair share of Starbucks...) If you go often, they'll greet you by name and know how to spell your name right on your coffee cup... :) - Consistent drinks (They always give me an exorbiant amount of whipped cream like I ask for because I love it.) & food (I love that they always toast my bagel w/o me asking them to!) - LOTS of parking in the Safeway parking lot TIPS: - Definitely try some Secret Menu items or Holiday Menu items - Mobile order to get ahead of the morning line - PET LOTS OF CUTE DOGS! :3 (This Starbucks is also really close to Unleashed by Petco.) read more

Throw out your typical undesirable opinion of corporate coffee chains, this Camden/Almaden location is one of the best Starbucks stores! Love love :) Believe it or not, besides being a boba addict *cough* I mean lover, I'm also a coffee snob teehee. When I was younger, my coffee journey started at Starbucks-- I used to work as a barista here! The staff is wonderful and they really care about their customers. I've yet to encounter a disgruntled barista but even so, they're also human. They're quick to own up to their mistakes and respond positively! The staff is also genuinely concerned about the drink quality too. They adhere strictly to the timing of crafting their drinks - i.e. espresso within seconds, pump the syrups and chocolate, steaming milk, etc. If it wasn't made perfectly, they are more than happy to do it again :) Although the location is small, few tables and couches in the front and back with some outdoor patio seating, I always enjoy their fast wifi and there's usually some free seating. Service is A+! I always tip them every time I come by. Thanks y'all! Recommendations: + Peppermint Mocha + Raspberry Mocha + Sea Salted Caramel Mocha + Green Tea Frappuccino with Java Chips + Java Chip Frappuccino Aim for the GOLD Membership/Card! You get a free drink/food every 12 Stars/TRANSACTIONS! So it doesn't matter if you buy 5 drinks in one transaction, it only counts as 1 star. Make sure to separate them (albeit a hassle) :) Otherwise, you can pay from your phone now and just pick up. Their online app is super useful. Check it out too! read more

This place is pretty busy. I actually go inside the Safeway where the line is often shorter. Lots of people there tho who are nice who bring their dogs . Takes forever to get a bagel though. The bagel store is often quicker and that's a legit bagel store. read more

Terrible experience. There were 4 employees standing around or cleaning. One guy told the girl there was a customer. The annoyed look on her face was palpatable. She never asked my name. Most unfriendly Starbucks employee I've ever seen. The then my iced tea was ready no one ever told me. Obviously they couldn't call my name. About 8 other drinks came and went before I went to check. It was just sitting there and no one ever called it out. Then they started cranking music at an awkward level. The two people closest to me were clearly annoyed and left since they couldn't hear each other speak. Won't ever return to this Starbucks. There are plenty of more professional coffee shops nearby. read more

Drinks were excellent, our service in the drive thru was friendly and helpful. This is usually one of my favorite Starbucks to order from with UberEats. However today I can only give 3 of 5 stars. Our breakfast sandwiches were freezing cold inside! The bags and bread were warm but the eggs and meat were anything but. Not good, you guys! I hope whatever the problem is, Starbucks can fix it ASAP! read more

Please teach all staff members (Aug 20, Monday 1pm) customer experience and Starbucks value. It's ok to make a mistake; but to flat out ignore and make customer feel worthless - is likely not Starbucks value. I ordered spinach wrap, the crew forgot abt the order; that's ok - I reminded and waited 15 mins no response and I reminded again - then staff realized- made the wrap. during the whole episode, no sense of remorse or simple "sorry".. the cafe was practically empty, not busy. I am sure they can learn - so please pass this note to them.. I am a lifelong Starbucks fan! read more

This location is a hit or miss with staff. Some days the staff are friendly and accommodating while other days they are just there and could use some help in customer service area.... I guess I'm glad there's now mobile order so I can just order, get my drink, and leave lol read more

This Starbucks is great for grabbing a drink and hanging out with a friend or two. The drinks here are significantly more expensive than other Starbucks around town for some reason, but the store itself is bigger. There are a lot of places to sit with seating available indoor and outdoors. There are also couches with give the place more comfortable and cozy feeling. Drinks are always made correctly, I just wouldn't want to pay more than $5 for a drink when I could go a few miles out to another Starbucks and buy the same drink for less. read more

Had an issue when I ordered through Uber Eats and the new manager at this location went above and beyond to accommodate me, even though as it turned out they went above and beyond to prevent the issue in the first place and unfortunately the problem was with Uber. I just really want to emphasize how professional, patient and accommodating the manager was even though I was very frustrated with the situation. read more

I used to come to this Starbucks all the time. But today was horrid. I was second in line. The first person wasn't even acknowledged withe "I'll be right with you" or anything. We we're all completely ignored. There were 5-6 people all just working mobile orders. I understand that, but at least ONE person could acknowledge our existence instead of avoiding eye contact at all cost. Finally I just said to them, "I guess you're not wanting to take anyone's order" and left. Soon after I see the woman in front of us also leave. Poor customer service. I miss how this place used to be. read more

Not sure how this place got 4 stars.... Waited over 20 min for a drink. Thats not normal. Nothing like 2 people taking orders, 1 making food and 1 making drinks.. how does that make sense? read more

They remodelled big time!! (some time in fall 2017). Looks super modern! Not sure how I feel about the new set-up...It feels as if there's less seating, but that may be because there's only like two tables at the way front, and high tables with two tall chairs along the side, and the larger 6-8 person table in the back. There's always the usual flurry of Almaden mom's and kids towards early afternoon time, but it's an alright place to do work as there's almost always seats available. read more
