Quick Service and Kind Employees! I got the Salted Caramel Mocha Strato Frappuccino Blended Beverage and the Potato, Cheddar, and Chive Bakes. The Frappuccino was delicious, and it tasted exactly like how any other Starbucks would make it. The Potato, Cheddar, and Chive Bakes were good! They were warm, and there were good amounts of potato, cheddar and chives. I felt like you could taste everything in almost every bite, and they came with 2! The employees were very kind and quick. I made a big order so I expected my order to take a while, but the employees were very fast to give me my order. The cafe is not very big, but it is very popular for all hours it's open. I think that's to be expected because it's the closest cafe with coffee near the North Tower. There's no seating or tables in the Starbucks Cafe area, but there are some tables and seating at Corner Counter next to Starbucks. There's a station in the corner with half & half, creamer, sugar packets, plastic utensils, straws, and napkins. The pick-up counter also has bags, Sriracha packets, and more napkins. I think for a Starbucks in Resort / Casino, the employees are nice and quick, the food is good, the drinks are good, and the cafe is pretty clean. I would come here again! :) read more

The Brown sugar oat milk espresso is amazing! I didn't think I would necessarily like but just wanted a quick "pep you up" and now I'm addicted. It is delicious and keeps you going without the jitters. The cashier was so kind and took time to explain and recommended it . The newly remodeled location was the draw for me to even go to Starbucks because it was so inviting and I'm glad I did and now I go every chance I get. read more

Rude. Wouldn't let my daughter (17) order a drink without her parents. When I went back he mumbled something to me and I thought he asked something else and decided to yell the question to me. read more

OK, forget about how overpriced it here ....that's a given. My Frankie ordered the bacon Gouda breakfast sandwich. Waited a while and when it came, he went to bite it scorched his mouth ...now he has a blister! He had to wait at least five minutes before he was able even to take another bite. It was microwaved beyond belief. The bread was chewy Once it cooled enough to eat ...just ridiculous on how they are able to sell those sorts of things to a customer!. Thank God it was not given to a child! It is common knowledge that a microwave can really make bread chewy. She claims it was an oven. $8. 95 just to get a blister in his mouth and be unhappy with his meal. This review is for him, because he normally doesn't like to complain. Love Harrahs..., but we know now to avoid Starbucks for any type of quick food that will be heated. I would definitely say avoid this Starbucks. don't be fooled by the photos up on the menu. It's a bait and switch! read more

Ordered a drink and asked for extra cups, baristas ignored me and were rude and acted as as if I wasn't willing to pay for extra cups.

Inside Harrahs, probably the best relatively low priced place to go for a quick breakfast. They open at 6am, 7 days a week. The sausage / egg / cheese on an English muffin is our usual choice. Not sure if this is the same at other location but they charge you a dollar if you want water. But many are using their reward dollars or charging to their rooms. In those cases, customers have to show their card and ID, slowing the ordering process. As others have mentioned, not a lot of conversation from the employees but as long as they get my order right, I'm okay with it. They used to be the only place in Harrahs for coffee and small bites but another venue opened in 2024 that is directly across the hall from them. As such, Starbucks closes at 10pm Sunday through Thursday and midnight on Friday and Saturday. The other place is open 24/7. They still have $1 refills on brewed coffee, iced coffee, hot and iced tea, charge a bit extra for espresso, lemonade and juice - you must have your receipt and it must be from the same day. So don't delay in the evening if you want a refill. read more

Seems like Starbucks management was so busy teaching these folks how to pour coffee they didn't teach them how to greet their paying customers, or even to thank them for their business. Sour personalities. Dour demeanor. No life in them. So sad. read more

the prices are extra extra here because there's no other options around :( that's was disappointing in addition to removal of their table / chairs. keep in mind that sometimes family or people who gamble who don't gamble themselves don't have a lot of options to go to here (lack of seating etc) so when i saw there was no more tables / chairs it was kinda like.. really? wish they would add them back in. read more

Everyone seems like they don't want to be there. Along with the additional charges just for a venti iced coffee and a dollar for a cup of water is absurd. Over priced. read more

Overpriced! Spent over $30 and they messed up my order. When I asked for an extra cup they said we charge $1. They nickel and dime you here for everything. Terrible service. read more

I understand this location is busy but if you are a cashier and need to step away to get some orders done please acknowledge the customers in line and let them know they will be helped soon. Waited for almost 5 minutes and nothing. Lack of training when it comes to customer service of they can care less. read more

6/01/2025 4pm I was completely ignored by Starbucks employees. Have you been taught by STARBUCKS head office not to apologize or worry customers when the hot coffee lid opens and spills? The employee who had a problem with me disappeared before he could even apologize to me. Starbucks should be proud of the results of its thorough training of its employees. Thank you so much starbucks read more

While you probably don't need another Starbucks review, I think it's worth noting that during my entire stay at Harrah's, every single drink I ordered came out perfect. That's a rarity for Starbucks, especially at a hotel location. What impressed me even more was the convenience of mobile ordering, which isn't something you find at many hotel Starbucks. Being able to place an order from my phone in my hotel room and pick it up within minutes is a 5-star experience in my book. I highly recommend this location for its consistency and ease of service! read more

Starbucks - Enjoying my Starbucks from our hotel room - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Valley Center, California

Visit: Tuesday July 23, 2024 9:00am The girl handling the online orders was very unfriendly. I asked for my order, and she only gave me the drink, not the food item. When I asked for the food item, as customers aren't allowed to pick it up themselves, she rolled her eyes. If it bothers the employees that much when people ask for their ordered items, they should improve their system for online pickups. The girl that took our order was very friendly compared to the mobile order one. read more

Starbucks - Green tea with cookie - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Valley Center, California

Rude and disrespectful employees. Not a good way to start a morning, but nowadays it's very difficult to find good people.

Harrahs Rincon casino Starbuck's store was just remodeled a few months ago by reducing the size of the store, it's half the size as before the remodel, all the table's are gone, it's like a drive through restaurant, People not happy with it and there overpriced coffee, it was very nice to sit and relax in the morning with a cup of coffee, NO MORE. HERE'S another thing the this Starbuck's would let you get a refill for ONE DOLLAR all day long, with your Receipt for 24hrs all the coffee you want, I guess all good things come to an end, Most of the Las Vegas casino's don't have refills, But harrahs Rincon did to say thank you to all its members, But here's the kicker, if you have a Harrahs casino player card You can get a refill, BUT, Only if you have the Magic SEVEN STARS card pretty chicken Ship I'd say" All Diamond Platinum members get the boot, The Diamond card holders means nothing anymore, even when they spend three to five thousand dollars over a weekend gambling.. read more

This Starbucks is inside of Harrah's casino. 1 star due to the prices. How they can charge so much is beyond me. Everything costs like twice as much as normal Starbucks for the same thing only a little worse quality. On top of this there is always a long line and no way to order ahead! Yes it's the only Starbucks in the area, but I would rather drive 30 miles to one that won't over charge me and allows you to order ahead. read more

This place is located inside the Harrahs Southern California Resort. As with just about everything else at this resort, the prices are inflated and definitely not worth the money. Everything is nicely set up inside. However, they have numerous items out on display to purchase, but nothing was marked with a price. So you have to ask someone working there just to find out the price. I find this sort of thing very annoying. It's obvious they don't want you to think about the price you are going to have to pay. Also, they told me that the coffee comes with free refills, but when I asked the barista for a refill, I was told I had to get back on the line and request that from the cashier. This makes a lot of sense, as it takes all of about 10 seconds to pour some more coffee into a cup. read more

They are so rude and they give you attitude if they make the drink wrong. Nasty drinks they can't make a simple drink taste good. Never buying from here again read more

On Friday evening, 6/20/2025, I ordered a decaf coffee and when opened the lid, I immediately noticed how light it looked, practically the color of tea. I took a sip and, as expected, it was extremely watery. Clearly, something had gone wrong in the brewing process. I politely brought it to the staff's attention and showed them the drink. Instead of offering to remake it or even acknowledging that something might be off, the response I got was: "You'll have to pay for another one." No apology, no concern, no empathy--just a flat-out refusal delivered with a rude and dismissive tone. Mistakes happen, I get it. But it's the way they're handled that makes all the difference. A simple "Sorry about that, let me fix it for you" would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, the lack of customer care here is enough to make me think twice before coming back. read more

You know Starbucks at casinos are always going to be overpriced, they're like airports. At this location it's always busy and the barista was probably overwhelmed because she screwed up my whole order. I just took it and left. After all it's just coffee. read more

Stopped by after checking out of Harrahs to try the new Impossible breakfast sandwich. I didn't see the sandwich in the food case so I asked the barista if it was available. "Amelia" rolled her eyes at me and said "yes". I ignored the fact she did that and continued to place my order. She then let out a big sigh and said with attitude "IS THAT IT"?! I don't know if she was just having a bad day but she needs to learn how to treat customers and people in general with RESPECT. As for the sandwich, it was great. Being vegetarian, Impossible products are my favorite but for $8.26 and bad customer service it wasn't worth it. I don't recommend this starbucks location to anyone, if coffee is what you're after there is a 7-11 in the parking lot. read more

Wow if it isn't enough to charge more for drinks, they even took my money i wanted to add to my starbucks rewards account. Week later i happened to see my app and noticed the funds was not where it should be. Im sure they're going to deny it or say there's nothing they can do so im just going to hope you all read this and go ahead and give them ur business and everything you like but be very careful when purchasing or ADDING FUNDS to your account. Get a receipt and check that everything went thru before walking off read more

$1 for cup of water really? Usually is Free every stores. I don't recommend it drinking coffee here

At 9:45am on a Saturday...After a 10 min line I was it was my turn to order (no mobile ordering here) a batista took my order.

My drip coffee and banana bread came out pretty quick and were consistent with Starbucks flavor. 4 stars cuz it wasn't a stellar visit but no big complaints. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Valley Center, California

I like Starbucks a lot. But when I saw this sign that they are now trying to profit off of selling cups of water? Really? As if the profit margins aren't high enough with their other products. This Starbucks is about 15 miles away from the 15 Freeway and Escondido. It's literally in the middle of nowhere in Valley Center (Funner). I get it that they need to recoup the cost of cups but Wow! I'd hate to finish a 110F hike nearby and come across this Starbucks who charges for basic human necessity. By the way, they do have a great staff who work tirelessly to get every order done quickly. I don't understand why a large cup of coffee is $4.25 while others in San Diego area charge $3.00 or so. Perhaps it's the logistics of having a store in the middle of nowhere. But I don't think they ship $1.00 cups of water all the way from the distribution center. I think it's just local tap water run through their filtration system. If any of you don't like being charged for non bottled water, let me know so I don't feel like I'm alone on this. read more

Starbucks - a group of people walking through a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Valley Center, California

Note: Store is open as of June 2020 I frequent this store anytime I'm here at Harrah's and since it's near one of the towers you can't miss it. Now I'm not a coffee snob, nor do I have the palate to tell you anything interesting such as what tastes good, what drinks quality is better than the other and such. I really cannot keep up with the non-fat, extra-hot, splash of almond milk this, easy ice that, shot of espresso there, or anything else that is anything remotely more than the name said on the menu. If you like Starbucks, the consistency is there and I feel will be the same as others, so come on in. They provide such great service and everyone here is ready to help! If you'd like some type of breakfast, lunch item or snack you'll find some options for each. Breakfast items include various protein and egg sandwiches, wraps, bagels, and various pastries. Lunch items include wraps, sandwiches,various protein boxes, and salads. Snacks include various protein boxes, bars and cheese, fruit, and chips and such. They seem to have a good flow here, I've never seen a hour long line or anything so you should be fine visiting at any time of day. As you might be aware of, each Starbucks location is different and perhaps suits a certain need. This location does not have much seating so it's not one to come to study at, read for hours in, or meet with more than one person. There's about 8 or so tables that are usually appropriate for two people. Prices seem to be just about the same as other stores. Somethings I am a fan of: Any of the basic drinks such as the caramel machhiato (hot or cold), caffee mocha, cappuccino, blonde roast, and nitro cold brew. Medicine ball: A blend of hot water, steamed lemonade, various teas, and honey. If you have a cold or feel any bit of sickness try this! Sausage, cheddar and egg sandwich Marshmallow dream bar Berry Trio Parfait Za'atar chicken and lemon tahini salad. Vanilla biscotti with almonds read more

Ordered two drinks, one iced and one hot & a couple food. Waited more than 15min for my iced coffee cuz they want to do all hot orders filled first. So all new hot orders are pushed ahead and I actually watched a good number of people who ordered way after me get their drinks and left. Stupid rule on this one, tell your manager that as who does that???????? Also very pricey!!! I know, casino and all, but a little too gouged. read more

My second day in the casino. Had to wake up early and tried to get Starbucks. It said it opens at 6am but both days they didn't open until 7am. First day they blamed the casino for shutting off their water. The second day they just blew me off. Another disappointing Starbucks. Not really surprised. read more

Starbucks - Store hours. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Valley Center, California

very bad customer service. rude and lazy employees they were not helpful at all and bad attitudes. obviously they need some new training

Besides the coffee being overpriced, the customer service is very poor. Came in to order a Doppio Con Panna, Venti house drip, and bagel. The guy at the register didn't know what was a doppio con panna. So I explained what it was. They were about to make it wrong. So by doing that, I forgot to order my bagel. Came right back behind the people he was taking their order. I told him that I forgot to order my bagel, and he said I had to get back in line. This is a Casino there are 20 people in line. I had to wait in that long line for a second time. I get my bagel I'm about to walk away and they forgot to give me my cream cheese. This is crazy. read more

More expensive than the airport, water isn't free, and the long line makes this the worst Starbucks ever.

It should be illegal to do this! They crossed out the $24.95 and added their own sticker price of $45. That's ridiculous to charge almost double the price for this cup. I handed the cup to my fiancé to purchase and didn't see the price until I got back home to LA. Very disappointing read more

There just is no possible way I can give any latitude to this Starbucks located in Harrah's SoCal Hotel. I've racked my brain trying to find some redeeming factor or value for this establishment, but I just can't come up with one. Employees here are downright nasty, unaccommodating, rude, and outright disrespectful. And I don't care how busy they are on the weekend, that's their job, deal with it. I see it with almost every customer. They yell at you, tell YOU to be respectful towards them and don't reciprocate, and on my last trip here, I saw the morning manager stir in some milk into a drink and hand it back to a customer and told her he remade it. That's utterly despicable, and I'm sure against public health regulations in the state of California, never mind deceitful to a paying customer that was obviously from abroad and didn't know any better. That kind of service makes me embarrassed to be an American. To make matters worse, the prices at this store are outrageous, even with a players club card. I had to pay $4.89 for a grande cup of coffee (with my discount) and another $1.00 for a cup of hot water (not discounted) that in a corporate store would have cost me $2.87 in Las Vegas and $2.52 in San Diego for the same coffee. And the water would have been free, outrageous! Does Caesar's Entertainment and the Rincon Band of Indians have to gauge their customers and make even more money than they do from the tables and machines? I understand this is not a Starbucks corporate store and is owned and operated by Harrah's SoCal. But GIVE ME A BREAK, $1.00 for a cup of hot water only to be yelled at by a bald, fat, nasty, forty-something morning manager that's teaching his employees how to deal with customers by own example. I've never, ever said this in any review anywhere, but get rid of this guy. read more
