We had a long wait for drinks and breakfast sandwiches inside for a mobile order. But inside is nice and clean and so is the bathroom. The girls working were nice and they fixed my drink for me when it had too much milk and water. read more

I like how this location in particular is open late. The lady at the drive thru is super friendly and gives off Hawaiian vibes. Same as usual, got my lavender matcha in a grande cup because if u get it in a venti it throws off the flavor ratio of matcha to lavender. read more

I was just at their drive-through and I was given somebody's mobile order as I was driving to work. I happen to look at the label because it didn't taste like my usual order and it happened to have someone else's name. This is not OK. Some people are diabetic and cannot have regular sugar. They need to stop being lazy. I understand they are extremely over crowded with vehicles not a reason to give a person somebody else's order that I'm sure will pick up and will be missing because they gave it to me. read more

Melissa, was kind to me and my family. Suggested a pastry that my daughter loved. Will be back soon :)

I love this location but am pretty upset that they are closing early at 9pm since I work night shift and need a 24hr Starbucks open. Was hoping they go back to 24hr closing time! some of us are night owls. Please spread the word so they can keep this location on Knoll RD open late! read more

I had great service from Anais and Chima at Starbucks early this morning. My order is not an easy one. I like a tall venti tea with eight honeys in it. The honey comes in packets and Anais the barista has beautiful eyes and s smile and did not flinch. When I gave my uncharacteristic order. She patiently cut each of the honey bags and added it to the tea with the type of milk that I asked for which is sometimes confused. And Chima was exceptionally polite. I have noticed at this store that the employees are positive and kind. And I have ordered this complicated black tea. Many times with never a scoff . As the employees have been so consistent in their service and their attitudes. I think this reflects on good management. I've been going to Starbucks for many years. And have been to hundreds of them, so I really appreciate this. Thanks ! read more

I asked for match with 6 pumps Vanilla. I only got 4... They also did not write on my cup

Doesn't matter how many times I ask for no foam, I always get foam. Sometimes it's extra foam! This isn't complicated, folks. Very disappointed in this location. Going to drive further just to avoid this one. read more

I haven't been to Starbucks in a while and was trying to see what drink I should get. Let me say Maggie was so much help. I don't usually write reviews, but she deserves it. It's honestly the little things that make it all the difference. She gave me options based off what I would like best. The drinks were just what we wanted. Thank you! read more

Staff are always friendly, kind and welcoming. They make me feel at home. Just like cheers, where they know your name.... read more

I love this Starbucks. Never have I gotten a coffee I ordered and didn't love. What a great way to start my day. I've been going there for five months now. The baristas are always so friendly. There have been couple of times where I've had to wait for my mobile order but hey they're so good they're busy, understandable. Hope I didn't jinx myself with bad service and bad coffee. You guys are amazing and thought you should know that I jinxed myself, I've done mobile order last three times and it hasn't been ready when picking up. Mind you I place it 10-15 min before I plan on arriving to give to them enough time. read more

Accessibility: there is a drive through here, accessible/handicap parking in front of the building with a ramp to get onto the sidewalk there, and seating inside. Experience: this has been one of the faster Starbucks Drive throughs I have been through. The employees are super kind, coffee always good. read more

Angry little boy working the late night drive through. Up past his bed time and needed a nap obviously just answering the drive through speaker with attitude for no reason "yes we close 12 7 days a week" I asked since when? And he just says goodnight doesn't even acknowledge my question. I came to the same location last week well past midnight. The lady started speaking for him and was a lot nicer but little napoleon complex needs a blankey and some milk read more

Does star bucks really know to make a cappuccino? Have the baristas never tasted in any micro roasters? Do they know the ratio between espresso and steam milk? Who check the standards here? Did they really change coffee bean grounds between two espresso? Why does it taste like a steamed milk, is it because of poor beans or light roasts? These are my brain thoughts, After throwing down my cappuccino in the sink. read more

We were served by Savannah and she was kind, energetic, and accurate in fulfilling our order. Great job!

I work nearby, so I'm here often. I've never had an issue with this store. The staff always gets me through quickly, and they're always courteous and helpful. I HAVE noticed that in the drive through line, they occasionally have a sign that says they don't accept cards. I always go in, but that would really bother me. I highly recommend the cold brew with pumpkin foam (seasonal?). I usually just order regular black hot or iced coffee, but I've been getting these more than I would like to admit. PS. I think they're open 24 hours now? read more

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

this starbucks is my go to! Immediately when I walk in, I am always greeted by the lovely staff even when it is 5am in the morning and I understand that they're probably half asleep too. these workers always seem super caring and understanding and makes it seem like they are always trying to get us customers out at a reasonable time and that I appreciate! Even when something breaks down or there is a problem that is out of their control, they always seem to know how to handle a problem. a worker by the name Iris was super nice and had asked me if I would like to try something different since I get the same drink everyday and had made me a drink that was super yummy and non-dairy! I can't thank you enough Iris for taking the time for helping me out even when you guys were extremely busy! Definitely will come back when I'm in California again! read more

Nice people. Everyone is hard work. however, 20 minutes to get a mobile order drink is unacceptable. Estimated wait time was 3-6 minutes

You all know Starbucks. It's great for getting that certain drink fix and craving. They do get a little confused when I only order a hot chocolate though but that's just how it is I guess I'm pregnant right now and so since it is the 'Tis the season, I like to enjoy the peppermint hot chocolate on most of my visits! read more

Customer Beware: RUDE SERVICE!!! I stood their at the register for 10 minutes and was completely ignored by every employee that walked by and "didn't see me", before finally giving up and walking away with nothing. For the first 5 minutes I didn't mind waiting in line, I could tell each of the 5 employees were a little busy with drive through orders, and I'm not unreasonable. But after about 5 minutes the drive through was empty and the employees were just talking to each other and walking around. Every time I thought I was about to be helped by an employee walking my way they'd make eye contact and make this "oh no! I made eye contact with a customer" face and then just put there head down and pretend they didn't see me. I'm not joking or exaggerating when I say over the course of 5 minutes every single employee walked my way, saw me, pretended they didn't see me, and then walked away! To go talk to another employee about their personal lives I'm so glad they were having a good time because I was not. After the fifth employee ignored me I was appalled and decided me and my boyfriend had waited long enough after 10 minutes of horrible service and chose to leave. I just couldn't believe 5 employees were working and not one decided to help me!!! If possible I would give no stars! 05/07/22 5:00pm - Time of incident read more

I've stopped by here a few times over the years and recently stopped by today. The drive thru was busy but I didn't want to exit my car to get a coffee. The drive thru is pretty modern with a nice large menu, intercom, and a large computer screen to verify orders. The woman taking my order was pleasant. I was surprised how quickly the line went. I think it was less than 5 min or so which isn't too bad. Maddie, the girl at the pick up window, was super kind and sweet. She apologized for the wait which was a first (usually no one says anything or offers an apology). I told her the line moved pretty quickly so no apology was even needed. Her smile was contagious and genuine. My venti iced coffee in a trenta cup ($3.25) tasted fantastic as it wasn't bitter or acidic. They added the right amount of half n half cream to the iced coffee to make it awesome. I also ordered a venti capp ($4.25) for a friend. She said the latte tasted pretty good. Maddie also prepared a large iced water (per request) so that was nice. Don't forget you can order via your iphone before you arrive and have the drink waiting & ready for you. Overall, a nice drive thru location. read more

Don't even bother going to this location, just go to the one on San Marcos & Bent because this locations way too busy, the baristas here are the reason Starbucks employees have a bad rap, rude, bad customer service, the coffee is hit or miss/subpar, and the location really sucks because of the parking lot. I know they deal with annoying customers but we're not all bad! Guy working the drive through needs a new job. There's a reason I hate going to this location every time. read more

The beverage I ordered was super good i definitely recommend coming here if you want a refreshing drink.

Went in again today and was blown away by the service once again. Thanks! The recommendations are always strong. Accommodations are there. Very refreshing. Sorry for rambling.. yelp wanted more words. read more

I'm going to take away one star from this location.... Went in on Christmas Day and it was packed. The baristas were hustling, still being friendly....until.... I wanted a cup of decaf....'pour over' style. I had it once (at the suggestion of a barista at ANOTHER Starbucks when they didn't have any fresh decaf brewed) and I'm convinced it's the only way to go now. Anyway, I asked for a decaf misto pour over style....and the barista shut me down. "We aren't do that today". I was sort of shocked. I know it takes longer but there's not extra manual labor. It just takes longer to drip. Disappointed for sure. :( read more

Damn this Starbucks sooo inconsistent!!! , that lula girl omg so mf rude, I go to Starbucks to hopefully relax my day a bit. N, instead this lady lula to argue with me because she didn't wanna take my 3 orders separately. When there wasn't any rush no cars or line, two this wouldn't have been the first time I've done 3 separate orders, so for me to get yelled at because I wanted 3 separate orders is insane, horrible customer service from lula. Extremely disappointed! read more

Starbucks is a good place for coffee down fall is that it's too pricey. Love the atmosphere and choices

This was one of the worst trips to Starbucks I have ever had. It started with the employee sitting on the curb, telling me it was not his job to answer questions. Then I got kale and mushroom egg bites, and they had overcooked them to the point they tasted burnt. To top it off, the cold brew had no vanilla cream and was so watered down It had to get thrown out. This used to be my favorite place to go, but I guess Better Buzz will start getting my business. I hope that the corporate office see's this . read more

Ordered my coffee and sat down, 10 minutes later nothing. Dude tried to give me a "refund" on multiple gift cards. Finally got my amex refunded, less the tip :/ It can't honestly be that hard to put coffee in a cup.....it's like they choose random people to treat like dirt for no reason. read more

If I could possibly give a negative star, this would be definitely the time that I would do it most disrespectful staff I've ever met in my entire life no courtesies at all you ask questions and it's like you're in another land another time, and if you may where they don't have to answer, they just look at you completely compounded and stupid like they don't even know what the hell they're doing. I would definitely not recommend this location to anyone. Thank God they are opening up two more locations on either side of the block maybe that's why! whatever you do do not use the employees at this location they suck. read more
