Great experience with Starbucks at 601 Union Street. We placed our order through the app and had it delivered by DoorDash. Everything arrived exactly as ordered, and the food and drinks were fresh and delicious. The order was accurate, well packaged, and a perfect way to start our travel day. We really appreciated the quality and consistency. Excellent experience all around! read more

Starbucks - Ordered delivered - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is a wonderful Starbucks! We moved into a nearby office space, and this is the closest store to us, so I come here a few times a week. The entire team is really nice, friendly, competent, and helpful. James, the manger is also really nice. read more

Mobile order system is very useful and so easy to order and good to pick up without waiting for long line. I love it. All staffs are professional and kind. read more

One of the few downtown stores that is not crammed. Love it. If I am correct, this one is located inside the City Centre building. I say this is because there are so many Starbucks in downtown and I can never find the right one to check-in on yelp. I like this better because it has many tables and the store is bigger than your regular Starbucks. Staff was friendly. read more

Oh my Starbucks - what can I say. Reliable as usually and puts me in my happy place so early in the morning. Granted there are more interesting options here in Seattle. Here for a conference with an early (early!) meeting and grabbing some coffee and breakfast from this place put me on the right path for the day. read more

I order my mobile order when walking down the street to the Union 2 building where the Starbucks I'm giving the 2 stars is located. I get into Starbucks and I'm waiting for them to call my name. Nothing happens for 10 minutes and I watch people get their coffee who have come in after I have. I finally go up and ask where my coffee is and then it appears 3 minutes later with an excuse that they are just really busy. When using the mobile app I expect faster service than when I stand in line. Not sure what is going on with operations in this location. The one I usually go to this would never happen. Going to go where I can get my coffee with out a 15 - 20 minutes wait for now on and avoid this location. read more

This is my FAVORITE location and staff! This is a VERY busy location even though there is another one across the street and one at the other end of the block. I will wait in line because I LOVE the friendly service!!! From the pictures posted I wonder if people confuse this location with the one across the street next to Jimmy Johns? This location is inside Two Union Square. read more

Beautiful store, good coffee. We went here Sunday afternoon around lunch time. The drinks took forever! We were seriously waiting ten minutes for 3 drinks. Two of our drinks finally came up but mine did not. Two more drinks were called out. I gently asked the barista on the bar if my Americano was coming because the two other drinks in our order had already came up and other drinks were being served. She said "yeah, it's coming" no eye contact, no smile, no apology for the wait, nothing. The guy at the cash register didn't offer a smile either. They were wayyy too slammed to have one person at the register and only one on the bar. Then, one of the people who was sitting at the counter went into the back and changed into an apron and started working. He was obviously on his break and let his coworkers handle the rush without helping. I understand wanting to use your break but when there is a big rush of customers there and you are sitting there listening to your headphones watching them struggle? Strange. I was not impressed with my experience here. read more

People! dash in, out, in , out! When do they stop? Where do they go? How much is..? I don't knwo what I want.... This nice place, a hole in a wall, filled with quick-moving business minded people! The baristas were friendly to me, just another, in a quick in and out. Professional smile, answered a question and helpign move the line along. I may or may not be back, (it was a short term job I had), but again, first class Starbucks service.. Thanks, team. read more

OK, I hate to draw any more attention to Buck o' Stars, and whenever I get a latte from a different coffee shop I'm always like "Man, Starbucks sucks!" BUT I go to this location at least once a week (convenience factor) and I feel compelled to mention a few things: -- The employees are INCREDIBLY nice, and unless new, also incredibly efficient. -- The Reduced Fat Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake is one of my favorite foods in the history of the world. -- If you register (and re-load) your gift card, you get little perks like free syrup flavors. read more

I frequent a lot of different Starbucks in the downtown area because I walk from Westlake to Denny (where I work). Sometimes I stop at this location, and every time I've gone they've been awesome. The baristas here are incredibly low-key and down to Earth, and they always get my drink perfect. read more

So, like, I don't really go to Starbucks unless I have a gift card, but, you know, the employees are nice, the drinks are predictable, the music/decor ("ambience") is like an adult contemporary tranquilizer, etc., so it's okay. Anyway, I went in here this past Tuesday and the guy behind me ordered, verbatim: a "veinte Americano in a tall cup with an inch of room." And the guy behind the counter was like "okay!" and then they went ahead and rung him up for a veinte Americano. Now tell me: how does one fit a 20 ounce drink into a 12 ounce cup and still have room for cream? Am I crazy? Starbucks is like a different coffee universe sometimes. read more

Now I don't usually write up Starbucks locations, because they are so ubiquitous and homogeneous--that would be like writing a review of a post office. However, this store's location directly off a large, landscaped outdoor patio is worth mention. The line was long and so was the wait for our drinks, but when we stepped outside and sat at a nice wood table on a sunny morning, it was worth it. A nice spot for a casual meeting. Note: This store is located in the middle of the indoor concourse running between the One and Two Union Square buildings. read more

This is the one inside 2 union right? Horrible. Just horrible. My drink is wrong almost always, and it's not a complicated one. And the environment is just sad. The manager, Christie, never smiles, and her employees seem to dislike her. I hear the way she talks to them and to customers and I am appalled... very unfortunate that Starbucks would let someone like that be in charge of such a busy store. Oh well, I used to go to tully's, but now I try to go to Cafe Voxx, just a little longer walk. read more

Ordered oatmeal, OJ, banana. Paid for it, cash. No receipt. Waited 5+ minutes for hot water to go into oatmeal - no oatmeal. Asked where oatmeal was and cashier did not even remember serving us. Asked if we had receipt - was not given receipt. Cashier questioned whether or not we paid for order. If we would have been given receipt by the same cashier that had served us 5 minutes earlier, could have produced receipt. Was finally given order under veiled protest. Not a good ST adventure. read more

Now that you don't have to be a customer the comfortable seats may be taken by non customers who are sleeping in the business.

Always a no-brainer unless you're a coffee snob. Well then, you'll just have to relax and caffeinate! :) read more

Starbucks - The best Starbucks location in the city without a doubt. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I felt really bad for the barista behind the counter. On Christmas Day, he just kept looking towards the door and at the line with this forlorn look on his face, like "Oh GOD, when will it end...?" Poor guy. read more

This is a starbucks. Ta-Da! However, the staff are AWESOME. They are friendly, helpful and patient with customers. They take the time to get to know you, check in and chat. I'd give them 5 stars except for sometimes their connection with clients = a long wait time. I know it's the morning and very very busy but I usually wait about 15 minutes for my coffee.... read more

My favorite Starbucks ever! The staff are happy, work hard and make a real effort to learn everyone's names. Lots of close coffee options in this area but I will stay true to this location. It's located in the access way between 1 union and 2 union square. read more

Ever imagined what the stock market trading floor would look like if the entire trade was in coffee beans? The answer is just like this. Baristas roaming the floors with pads, orders shouted and thrown about, people standing in droves waving arms. It's chaotic, but it's still fun, good, and reasonably enjoyable. My one gripe is ordering ahead of time. We've ordered several coffee 'travelers' several times, and they are almost never ready when we get there (and we order them for 20 minutes before we arrive. I've even called the day before to confirm they would be ready and no...nothing. I'm sure it's busy as all get out there, but you really need to hold hands if you're going to get a bulk order ready in time. read more

They're friendly and fast and serve coffee. I like coffee. Coffee good. No coffee bad. read more

I love the baristas here! Every morning, I hop off my bus and head in for my usual tall cup of Pike Place coffee. The staff always remembers my drink and often gives me free samples of a pastry, muffin, or new coffee drink. One girl even told me about the Starbucks rewards that I was missing out on...now every time I use my card I get a star and when I hit 30 (only 8 left) I get a free drink every ten stars, free refills, and other perks! Thank you, Starbucks! read more

The folks who work here have it down to a science and given the rampaging hordes of office workers that swamp the place, that's a good thing. Things seem to be much quieter in the afternoons, although it's hard to wait that long for my caffeine fix. My drink order did get lost once, but they were very apologetic and made me a new drink immediately. I'm impressed that the baristas have always been cordial and patient, and sometimes downright friendly, in the face of a constant on-slaught of chaos. read more

They're always too busy when I go which seems to be some freak accident & I'm an impatient jerk sometimes. Shhh! I got a triple tall extra hot pumpkin spice latte which was disgustingly overly flavored. I had to go back to the office & dilute it w/ soy milk (it's all I had for my cereal!) & it was still undrinkable. I give them kudos for getting me through the line though & for their attitudes. read more

I work down the street from this Starbucks, so I am a frequent customer. The staff is so friendly, and helpful. They remember your name, and often times remember the usual drinks you order. The drinks I've had are always good and if it was ever mistaken, they will be happy to remake the drink at no charge. read more

HORRIBLE! If you're looking to place an online order for pick up; the order you get may NOT be what you ordered. It's not that difficult (I would assume) to simply follow the directions the online site provides yet this store seems to have some trouble with this task. I have tried 3 times (last time for me!) to order a simple Mocha Frappe -- I get a different beverage EVERY time. How is it that difficult? When you try & ask someone they give you the deer in the headlights stare; guess you really can't argue with STUPID! So they can't make a coffee at this coffee house; but their customer service is great, right? Hell NO! I don't think they have been taught that because it clearly doesn't come innately! There are plenty of "people" behind the counter but NONE of them seem to be interested in the "customers" on the OTHER side of the counter as they simply turn a blind eye unless you physically yell to get someone's attention. All the while there is a line of drinks just sitting there getting cold/warm (they put HOT drinks right next to COLD ones, yeah!!). The picture is what (apparently) a Mocha Frappe should look like--it was DISGUSTING! I have NO idea what they did but that is NOT a Mocha Frappe but rather sludge with foam (the foam is from the sludge as they did NOT put any whipped cream on it--I have NO idea why not!) So there's 10 bucks down the f***drain! I will NEVER go back to this store (I use the term "store" loosely as it doesn't appear they want business nor do they care about the customers which I believe a normal store would care about). Heed my warning & get your coffee elsewhere or you can enjoy your SLUDGE you get here! read more

I work really close to this Starbucks so I frequent this particular one. I love the staff here because they are so friendly and remember your name and what you drink and ask you how your day is going. Those little things go a long way. read more

I only go here if someone else is buying and they're addicted to Starbucks so they won't go to Tully's...or it's "take a co-worker for a walk day" and I'm tagging along to get out of the office. I'm a good boy with very little bark, so no leash or muzzle required. This Starbucks location is convenient given it's located at the bottom of the building where I work. In the morning, you will frequently see a long line that extends out the door (there's not really a door, but you know what I mean). The long line does not deter others from getting in line to get their fix. One, they need to get their fix...Two, the customer service is pretty good and fairly speedy. Notes: Starbucks doesn't offer shakes (Tully's does)...the closest thing is a frappuccino which is not close enough. Also, their donuts are way too small for the cost. On a positive note, their Mocha and Caramel Apple Spice are good. read more

I go to Starbucks a lot, and I find myself going back to this location the most due the friendliest and fast service they all provide. Its a nice wake me up when its so early in the morning. read more

I'm rather surprised at the good reviews. This is probably one of the worst locations in the area. It takes forever for them to make your drink and half the time they get it wrong. Then you have to ask yourself if it is worth waiting another 20 minutes to get them to fix it. read more

A trip to this Starbucks is part of my daily morning routine. Never had a bad coffee, they're very friendly, definitely try to remember your name, your drink, etc. Only bad thing is the line can be sometimes long. But if that happens, we just head to one of the other 6 that are literally within a 500 ft radius. read more

I like this Starbucks because it's less crowded than others, but the staff always seem so down when I come in. I'm not sure if I'm catching them on off-days or if there's been a morale issue, but when I try to be polite and smile, I get some glazed looks in return haha. Granted, not everyone wants to be in customer service. Perhaps it's just me, but I often leave feeling like I stepped out from a little black rain cloud. read more

Ok Starbucks in Union Square is a very busy place during the week. All those lawyers, financial analysts and directors need their coffee! I, none of the above, need some too. I have come here many mornings and without fail, every time, the line is out the store. I am tempted to turn around but then my caffeine-deprived body starts to miss its high and I get in line. I have never waited longer than five minutes for my coffee here.The staff here handles the crowd with such ease. Sometimes, when they come up to me, I haven't even decided what I wanted yet because they're so quick! Coffee and food tastes good too and afternoons tend to calm down. I am a happy coffee-guzzler here! read more

Quick service. Great coffee. The usual Starbucks fare. The folks that work there were friendly and nice. it was easy to get to,

Probably one of my favorite Starbucks I've ever been too. I was in town waiting for a friend and they internet was free, they had multiple places to plug in and the Vanilla Latte I got was perfect as far as SB standards go...! :) read more

It's Starbucks, you know what you're getting. The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable, and there are plenty of nice big tables. This particular location is always crowded for whatever reason. read more

We stay across the street at the Sheraton often and this is our morning stop. Weekday mornings this place is the best in the area, very cool people working, fast and overall great. Weekends however seems to be a vastly different story. Even though it's less busy, it's takes longer! With the same size crew, crazy. On a recent Saturday morning, I realized I'd been waiting in line forever and saw two people behind the counter busting their ass and saw four more are the end of the counter eating, drinking and dicking around. Alas, there is always another Starbucks around the corner so that's where we went. read more

This Starbucks is awesome! I work in One Union so I see these guys every morning. If I'm going to have to see your face day in and day out at 8am when I really don't want to be there, it really helps if you're nice. And they are. Everyone remembers your name and usually your drink of choice. They're super friendly and helpful, but not overbearing. Sometimes I go in in the afternoons with a hankering for something sweet, but I never know exactly what I want. Well I don't have to, because as soon as I walk in, the person at the counter knows what to do. He or she will spring into action with suggestions right away. They know what I'm there for, and they remember I never know what I want. And I always walk away happy. read more

Its a good coffee house, really big tables, very friendly staff, and fast internet.
