Great to have a close Starbucks near me while traveling. This location is right next to a Subway, can get coffee and a sub, ha ha. The staff here was very nice, used the app of course to order in advance so I don't have to wait and I get points. The store was clean, there is a big parking lot, plenty of seating inside and a small patio to sit at. Good to relax or work or whatever you like. Enjoy! read more

Stopped by for an iced green tea and a quick bite on my way to an appointment. Thank you for the wonderful service!

Very rude to those who order online and come to pick it up. I stood there for 5 minutes at the pick up side and not 1 person said hello or what my order was. After 5 minutes someone finally asked me if I had an order. I told him the name and he went and got it and it turns out it was ready before I even got there, but they made me wait Five minutes without even greeting me when I walk in the door. read more

I understand that I'm ordering a triple espresso but I mean, can you fill my cup up with more ice or something and at least act like it looks full kind of weird. I've never had that happen to me before I'm really disappointed. read more

This is your basic Starbucks location. It was the first SBUX in this small town and it has seen better days. The location in a shopping center is ideal other than the confusing drive-thru entrance situation. Although clearly marked with signage, folks don't seem to get what No Left Turn sign means. Expect to spend some time here if you are using the drive-thru as the line can be pretty epic. I highly recommend using the SBUX app and picking up. The staff is always friendly, but the drinks are inconsistent. The inside could use a remodel. I'll go along with the average and give this one a 2. read more

Starbucks - Pro Tip: When trapped in the slowest drive thru line in history, take a photo of the building and post on the Yelp. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tulare, California

this is the worse starbucks in town, they were only take mobile orders at the moment which is terrible service. 4 baristas couldn't handle a few orders when i myself used to work at a super busy starbucks in LA on 3rd st. ridiculous management and poor leadership. read more

One star customer service. No star for Justin, shift manager! One of the reason this place has two stars is evident by the leadership this shift manger is providing! I asked for Grande hot tea in a Venti cup and filled with hot water. Justin said "no, I'm not going to do that because it's a cost factor" read more

These guys know what they're doing. Their beverages are definitely better in quality than other locations. I've heard a lot of ---- talk about drive-thru, but ai never use it so I don't really care, ha! read more

Starbucks - This is a proper Açai. 10/10 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tulare, California

Monday night visit. Drive-through lane moved fast, service by the women at the drive-through window was great and the drinks were good.

This is the worst of what Starbucks has to offer. It's about as clean as a rest stop on hi way 99. At least at the rest stops they empty the trash and you can get a drink in less than 20 minutes. There was cups sitting next to trash can and trash on the floor thought the location. While we were waiting for our drinks we sat at a table we were going to relax after several hours of shopping across the street. Standing in line we could hear they were out of several things sounded like whoever does the ordering should be fired. After about 20 minutes out Frap and Ice Green tea were ready. My wife's drink wasn't complete. She ordered a Carmel Ribbon and when she got her drink it didn't have any of the topping. After we ordered paid and are now getting our drink they decide to say oh yeah we're out. The employees don't seem to give a crap about anything. I've never seen a crew so miserable at a Starbucks. I will never return to this dump and I hope this isn't a sign that Starbucks no longer cares about quality or the atmosphere they are known for. read more

Starbucks - Never seen a Starbucks where they don't empty the trash, there is trash on the floors and none of the employees seem to care. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tulare, California

Some of the barista's are just very entitled and careless. I ordered a hot chestnut praline latte and my cup was hardly halfway full, there was also no whip nor praline topping. I work at a coffee shop myself, so I understand that rush hours can be extremely stressful - but that is no excuse to be negligent. I also know (being a barista myself) that no customer wants to hear that the problem is their fault, and that is what I experienced the one time I've ever questioned an order. It is only a handful of barista's I've noticed have a pattern of making me or whoever I'm with feel like a burden for coming in. The rest of them are perfectly kind. I hope this review finds the management well:) read more

This Starbucks is a bit busy and some customer holed up in the bathroom forever. So if you are in a hurry and or need the bathroom well this may not be the best location for you. Other then that drink was decent, not the best one I had at a Starbucks, but not the worst. read more

I got a tall triple shot dry cappuccino. Should be strong, right? I can barely taste the espresso I paid for. They only put 1 shot in it. Heading out of town and can't turn back to remake it. Also, not nonfat milk. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tulare, California

Wow, this is a really pathetic Starbucks. The Starbucks confusion here is absurd. Rude and very hostile somehow... I ordered an espresso frap. Easy right, not here.... The guy that was taking my order kept asking me how many extra shots I wanted. I explained I just wanted the normal amount. He said ok he would add 3 shots...WTF???!!! I did not ask for that.... I asked him if he did not understand my order. He rose his voice and said he understood.. Really? then why did you ask how many shots??? Are you confused somehow?? I pulled up to the window and the lady there brought out a small, almost hot, frap, from so many shots added to it. All the ice was almost melted... I asked her what this was and she rudely said "the drink You ordered" ... Wait a minute. I ordered a plain espresso frap and this is not an espresso frap, plus they wanted to charge me for 3 additional shots. WTF???!!! Really??? Get your orders right first! The customers order was not what you made so its not the customers fault... They need to read the Starbucks guarantee.. If its not right they will fix it right away... This did not happen at this Starbucks... I asked her to remake my drink or refund my money. She said she would remake it. I finally got a somewhat of a drink near what I ordered. It was not to bad but was still not my order. This place is a joke for a Starbucks... They really suck to say the least. For a coffee, it is not worth stopping here! I would recommend you go to the next Starbucks that can get orders right... Steer clear of this one... The drive thru was really slow here to. it took so long to get thru. Must be the Starbucks Confusion store here.... read more

SLOWEST STARBUCKS OF MY ENTIRE LIFE. Do yourself a favor and go to the next town. This is like being in prison in the drive thru. Like Hotel California. You can check out but you can never leave! We were in the drive thru for 30 min and had not even made it to the ordering screen. And there were not that many cars in front of us. But we could not back up - cars piling up behind us!! Ordering screen is all busted up (see photo) Then when we finally got to the window they handed us the wrong drinks (likely due to their busted up screen). No straws (so my caramel was never going to make it to the surface - I know, first world problems) but when you wait FOR-E-VER for your overpriced coffee - you expect a little more. I need this 40 min of my life back. I just was reading all of the other reviews similar to mine ... come on $tarbuck$ - we are not talking about a franchisee here - this is YOUR STORE - YOUR BRAND. So so sad. read more

Update on Starbucks on this location. Some of the mornings crew girls have been with a negative energy/attitude they don't welcome no more or even say a word at all. There's 2 of them with a ugly negative face won't mention names but check up on them. read more

Updating review of this location in Tulare. (This location is in the 99 cent store / Smart and Final Plaza) It is a small backwards "L" shaped coffee spot that is cozy and friendly. We have been here a couple times in the last week. Both times Fernando was a nice barista especially the first time. He is good partner for customer service. All employees were working away stocking, helping, making drinks and cleaning. Only negative were the bathrooms were pretty dirty but it could be a lot of traffic came through. The drinks were made at average speed but those drinks were made correctly. There is a drive thru as well as eight tables inside as well as a couple outside tables. It is a good spot for a coffee or iced tea. read more

The most important stop of the morning. What makes this stop so much more special is all the kind faces. There is nothing better than starting your morning with a fresh cup of coffee from Starbucks. read more

Worst starbucks I've ever been to. Took 20 minutes for my drink that I put on mobile order and it still came out wrong not one extra pump Carmel sauciness not to mention could someone please light a match under these ladies but there are 5 of them and 3 people in line and they still managed to take 20 minutes to get a drink whoever the hiring manager is fire him read more

The night shift supervisor, JJ was amazing, she went above and beyond for this customer, thank you.

Yuli is the best. She is always courteous and friendly. We always hope she's working when we come through the drive thru. She always brightens our day and leaves us with a smile. read more

What is left to be said about the grand poobah of all coffee chains? I'm writing this review from one of just 27 Tulare locations on the day after Thanksgiving, where I've found temporary respite from leftovers and overly-inquisitive extended family members. Despite a busy and continuous holiday crowd, this location gets big props for maintaining a tidy and clean interior. I'm sitting near the door where the draft is unavoidable, but every other corner seems warm and cozy. My personal warmth is sustained with sips from an exceptionally frothy chai tea. Best of all, despite some viscous criticism from a testy group of Black Friday shoppers who were up since 3 a.m., the staff here is attentive, speedy and cheerful. It will be hard for me to ever say "Hey, you should check out this great Starbucks I visited," but I will go the extra mile to visit this location should I ever find myself here in the future. The efficiency and speed with which the employees here work helps me understand why Starbucks has been able to maintain such incredible popularity. read more

Starbucks - Everyone and their uncle line up for coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tulare, California

I'm just wondering why a drive thru takes 30 minutes (and counting) for one drink...and my drink is a grande size...and not even a Frappuccino. If I would've known this, I would've gone inside or stopped at another Starbucks. ‍ As I'm sitting here waiting in line, I was able to read all the other bad reviews. This drive thru needs to get it together, honestly, truly. read more

This particular Starbucks wasn't listed on Yelp so yay! I get to add a listing. Another first for me and also the first stop on my way to visit my Mom for her 50th birthday which is tomorrow. A cop had given me a scare earlier when he flashed his lights at me. I noticed I was doing several illegal things - texting while driving and going 100 mph. Oops. I know both are wrong and I really don't need another ticket this year and I really thought I was stuck so I started pulling over but I guess he changed his mind. I was seriously concerned so I lowered my speed and pulled over to take a break and lo and behold found this Starbucks. It's not conveniently located off the freeway but if you head off the Prosperity/Hillman exit, you'll see it shortly in the 99 Cent shopping center. It shares the same building as Subway which is interesting and also has a drive-thru and a patio. The bathroom was well-stocked and there was a long line for the drive-thru and inside as well. I didn't know there could be such a line for a Starbucks in such a remote area but I guess coffee lovers exist everywhere. read more

Cheerful and engaged team at 8am. Really nothing more needs to be said but I need 85 characters and I want to bring this locations star average up. They deserve better than some of these reviews. read more

I never leave reviews but last night when we pulled in through the drive-through 15 minutes prior to close I was very upset at the fact that we were not helped due to them saying there were no cars in the drive-through prior to closing we waited 15 minutes in line for the cars in front of us to order and when I got to our turn they said sorry but we are closed. When we continued to say we had been in line waiting since before closing they denied a service explaining that they had been slow and no one had pulled into the drive-through until after 11 o'clock when that it's not the case. the man at the speaker continue to say sorry but we're closed try again tomorrow. Horrible service . read more

Starbucks - Ugh... a super long line! It does not take that long to make coffee if you know what you're doing - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tulare, California

Omg, what a horrible experience! Waited for 19 mins in a drive through! It was so slow and inefficient! There were 6 cars and each took eternity to serve. Whoever is on the shift-was slow as molasses! To top off a great experience the guy in the window refused to take a couple of empty STARBUCKS cups and sent us out to the nearest trash can across the street. In San Diego it was NEVER a problem but in this special town, it is. Bad service, bad location, indicates bad management. Timing of the event is July 1, 2018 at 4-4:19 pm. read more

Talk about a bad experience. I pull into the drive thru and the line is lengthy. That's no problem we could wait but the screen to order was shattered and had what appeared to look like a bullet hole. We said hello many times with no response and figured it was broken. We pull forward and then get a response. She tells us to go in reverse even though there is a car behind us. We finally get to the window and ALE (the employee) greeted us with I told you to reserve you had space how many drinks did you have? We order our drink and she hands it to us without saying anything. Should be fired immediately. read more

My multiple order was correct, and they were very friendly, but, they were really slow.... Being slow definitely sucks, however, getting my drink order correct, and smiling is always worth the wait. Good job Tulare! read more
