I find Starbucks is generally pretty consistent with their food and drinks, so my review of this one will focus more on what made my experience at this particular location unique: -The staff offered the option of warming up my cookie before I asked myself -The upstairs had plenty of seats and wall outlets, and the wifi connection was great, which made it easy for me to pull out my laptop and work from here -A staff member came over and offered me a free sample of a cold drink read more

Drip coffee is barely drinkable. The tables on the second floor all have crumbles. - The staff doesn't do anything about it, like it's meant to be that way. read more

Go UPSTAIRS! Such a cozy and inviting space... fireplace, armchairs, bistro style round tables, communal tables... and electric outlets! It is just so quiet... feels like a library... without the kids section. shhhh.... Stay Downstairs?! Big windows overlooking both Mt Pleasant and Soudan... There are also a patio on the side too for warming weather... A little more noisy.. A little more relax... A little sad to see the Sweet Gallery closed... but this is a nice Starbucks! read more

Nice, friendly Starbucks. I can see why other yelpers enjoy studying there because it's very comfortable. Nice atmosphere, slightly cramped but I was there during a high school's lunch hour so it was packed with teenagers. Service was quick and friendly. Drinks met Starbucks standards. I would have loved to have seen the upstairs area but didn't get a chance. Definitely met my expectations. read more

I really enjoy having my latte at this Starbucks location. The staff are extremely friendly and very efficient. There's a second floor seating area, which I am a fan of. It's a great place to just sit and relax. The location is a little ways from Eglinton Station, but it's conveniently located around many awesome restaurants (after dinner coffee, tea). Good for: coffee, tea, studying, dates read more

Tiny location with limited seating. I was hungry and hadn't eaten anything for breakfast so I decided to try the eggs and cheese with apples and grapes protein box. It was really good and I would definitely get it again. Staff are always friendly at Starbucks so this location was no different. I'll come back because I work on the same street. read more

Basic Starbucks but with nice study area upstairs. Lots of outlets and seating, perfect for getting some work done (if you're lucky enough to be there when there aren't any 'extreme talkers'- you know who you are...) My table needed a wipe down but overall it was a clean space. Didn't hear any music or feel any heat or AC so ill have to see what the winters will bring in this place. They could warm/cheer the place up a bit. And frankly the staff was friendly but distracted. But at least they have my fave- cheesecake brownies. Beats the Second Cup and Timothy's in the area though. Sorry Canada, I wish it weren't so. I RECOMMEND- Hazelnut latte or spicy pumpkin latte EXTRA TIP- Two large tables for group studying and outdoor seating for those grasping at the last days of summer. read more

This Starbucks just took over a little sweet gallery spot. Right when that store closed down I said to myself, "Starbucks is going to open here", and voila! A Starbucks opened up. I knew it; am I psychic or what?! This location has two levels- the bottom level is small, has some window seats, and the coffee bar. The entire upstairs is a seating area and the place is very clean, quiet and cozy. The staff working here are super friendly, homely and very efficient. This new Starbucks location has become my favorite in the area. read more

Good coffee, very nice friendly staff. Agree with the earlier comments just a nice place read more

I find this location very cosy, and it has something for everyone when it comes to seating. It does get crowded in the mornings on the weekends and the way it's laid out makes it hard to even get in the door to line up and place your order. Pet peeves about this Starbucks: the barista with a very annoying singsongy voice that grates on my nerves like nails on a blackboard; and the very watered down taste to their blonde roast. When it's made well True North is a pleasant, mellow blend with character, but they tend to screw it up here, so I have to get them to blend it with Pike to make it more palatable. read more

This starbucks is over all a very amazing environment and great place to eat/ drink. All the staff are very friendly and always get my orders right. However... this location is very heavily air conditioned to the point where people are shivering!! Please do something about this asap!! Still great though. read more

Just a normal Starbucks cafe. The first floor of the store is packed and only has few uncomfortable seats. You have to go up stairs to get a better seat. Morning should be the better time to sit in this place. Afternoon and evening time could be noisy as you can normally encounter teenage gatherings, or, someone working with their laptops and yielding against their cells. It, sometimes, is really annoying. Not a fan of Starbucks' coffee. It always give you a rubble taste and makes you doubt about using of artificial flavours. Only go there for convince and internet. The Timothy's cross the street offers better coffee. But, the internet service is not so good. Sorry, I am a Starbucks internet user (otherwise, I will only give it single star). read more

This is my favourite Starbucks in the Yonge/Eglinton area. The upstairs seating area is great - it's large and has a cozy feel with the wood floor, big wood tables at the back, etc. This is a nice contrast to all the tiny and sometimes aesthetically ugly locations in the area. The staff are also nice, which is a bonus. If just want somewhere to go read a book or talk to a friend it's great. HOWEVER, if you need to go somewhere to do work that requires an internet connection, the wifi here is absolutely awful. Really really awful. Painfully slow and inconsistent awful. I have gone there about five times since moving to the area a couple weeks ago, and without exception the wifi always sucked. I now go to Istanbul Cafe at Eglinton/Redpath if I need wifi, since their wifi has been consistently good (and I like the decor, the staff are nice, etc.). read more

They have everything a coffe shop should have. The staffs are very friendly. I usually want extra whipped cream or caramel in my orders, and they actually add more to my cups, not like the other shops where they don't really do that. Plus, the second floor is the best of any coffee shop I've been to in Toronto. read more

Fave Starbucks in the area!! The staff are super friendly, and the second-floor seating is lovely! Great place to meet up for coffee with someone, or get some studying done! read more

Good location and appealing upstairs area but it's usually dirty. Questionable staff: some nice, some rude and mostly stupid; typical minimum wage staff problems. Starbucks is in a downward spiral. read more

My new Starbucks for writing. I'm a freelance writer and go around Toronto to different Starbucks to get my inspiration going. I love this Starbucks at Soudan and Mt. Pleasant. It's the newly designed ones and I just love the second floor, it's cozy and is nicely designed. Reminds me of the European cafes I used to write at when I lived in Europe. The staff was super friendly and the coffee was great. Happy New Year, I will return! read more
