I had been driving since 5:00 in the morning from El Paso, and was hungry and needed something to…read moreeat as I was starving. And found myself heading 2 mi inland to find this particular Starbucks. What a nice little hidden gym. This place was actually very nicely laid out, plenty of parking outside, and inside. Plenty of seating and table options. People behind the counter were nice and friendly, not as chatty as some but it didn't matter, I'll take friendliness over talkativeness any day of the week. They took my order, scanned my phone and within minutes my order was right there. By the way, use the restroom before picking up my order. It was nice and clean, and made for a very nice experience. My go-to as always is the turkey, bacon, egg, white sandwich, a venti vanilla sugar-free latte, and this time around I tried the matcha strawberry loaf. I really enjoyed the matcha strawberry loaf. Loaf it was perfectly sweet and was very very tasty. Bottom line? If I am ever traveling out this way I will definitely stop by the Starbucks again. It's a hidden gem about 2 mi in from the 10 freeway.

So, as much as I would love to think of this location as 5 star they have evolved into a 2.5 level…read more We generally go to the Safeway Starbucks across the parking lot for a clean environment, with drinks made to perfection and stellar service. The issue I have with this location is that it consistently appears dirty, even when slow and there are plenty of workers. My last 4 visits here have yielded very SLoW service despite one visit having 8-9 people working. It seems very disorganized here and workers not grasping priorities in staying on top of everything even during cyclical rushes. Not sure what the deal is here but I hope they work it out and love that I have a fallback Starbucks within feet of this one.

Unfortunately, I think their pastries are better than the coffee. My guess about my distaste for the latte I ordered probably comes from the oat milk they used. The shot in the dark guess I have is that they used Kirkland oat milk. It was fine, and if I lived over there I would probably be more inclined to visit. However, I wouldn't really go out of my way.

You could tell right from the start the guys in the truck were passionate about what they did. They showed a high level of excitement explaining their different empanadas and how to reheat them when you got home. On our first attempt, we ordered the ground beef , apple, chicken, pizza, and fatay. They neatly arranged it in a medium size pizza box that had the qualities and included the reheating instructions. Each empanada had initials stamped so you could identify the types without having to bite in to it. Every detail was well thought out with the customer in mind and I thought that was a great touch. Fast forward to reheating and biting in to the empanadas, I found them to be very flavorful. You could tell the flavors were layered nicely. These were so good I went back the next day and walked away with their large pizza box. I pretty much tried everything that wasn't special order. My preference, but I like that it's baked and not fried. The internal ingredients are more pronounced and not masked with fryer fat. The size was perfect in that you can try more than one and not be stuffed. It's quality over quantity and in a place like this it matters. Good stuff. I'll be back. Just under $4 each any flavor.

There's always people pulled over ordering when I drive by and I'm so glad I stopped. Now when I say these are packed with flavor, I mean it! I've had empanadas in the past with only a little filling. Not these bad boys. They are stuffed full! We ordered the beef, the chicken, the humita, and the apple pie. All were AMAZING! The chicken was my favorite- so much flavor! And all of them were stuffed full. I definitely recommend stopping if you're around the Vail area.
