One of the better options for reliable, quick coffee before 7am is probably Starbucks. This one has a small drive thru that you might miss if you go too fast. Not busy before 7am so I got my order quickly. Came here twice when I had early morning starts and just needed a reliable coffee and a quick breakfast option. Staff was super nice and welcoming on both visits. read more

I've been coming to this Starbucks location for years and overall they do a great job. The staff is friendly, the store is clean, and they usually move things along pretty efficiently. It's a good team and that's why I keep coming back. The reason I'm leaving this review is something small, but it happens often enough that it's worth mentioning. My Americano was filled so high there was basically no room at the top. One cup had maybe a quarter inch of breathing room, another was completely topped off and spilled all over my car the moment I picked it up. It wasn't particularly busy, so it just felt unnecessary. A little space at the top would go a long way. Not a huge deal, but when you're grabbing coffee on the go, nobody wants it sloshing all over the car. Still a solid location and a good crew, just hoping they leave a little room in the cup next time. read more

when ordering online i chose the wrong type of milk (the type my child is allergic to) because of a letter skipping that i didn't know. When i picked it up i didn't know until my child drank a little i realized, i went back in to buy another cup for my child after picking up the second cup i told the gentleman working (maybe Hispanic i'm not sure), he was very nice and happy to make another cup with the type of milk my child wasn't allergic to. it was very hot outside but i felt very cool because i met nice Starbucks staff and went to a place with good service. i like this location because they're always so nice and speedy. read more

Rude staff in the drive thru while getting my order. Won't be going to this location again

This review is specifically for the drive through at this location. They are always speedy fast with getting your orders ready for you and anyone who works the window is super friendly. I frequent this drive through weekly and am always very impressed with their kind service. Their drinks are always consistent and help me start my morning. read more

Not coming to this location anymore after being my default for about 10 years. They just cannot seem to get my order correct despite ordering the most basic drinks. First straw was earlier this year when I realized their double espresso shots were often short - so I began ordering triple and quad shots to offset their inability to pour a full double. Funny thing is this made it even more drastic. I'd get almost the same amounts for my triple or quad order as if I was ordering a regular double. Consistently giving me half of what I am paying for is pretty shameful. I significantly cut back on coming here after my little experiment and it wasn't until this month that I went back again. The last two visits I ordered a Tall Iced Americano. One time I was given a hot americano and the second time i was served a short cup. I don't think my order has been proper more than once in the last 10 visits. Not sure if it is incompetence or if shorting me 25-50 cents each visit is helping stay profitable but I am going to move on to a different location that doesn't seem to have this issue. read more

My food was raw and cold I saw the girl at the warming spot take out my food and everyone else's prematurely. This is dangerous and can get someone sick. No wonder they have gotten so fast they take food out of the oven before it is done. I will not be returning. read more

I have a few concerns about this location. I am a regular customer at this locationand I noticed there is a lot of turnover with the barista's. On two occasions, I observed the manager and how she related to her staff and it was horrible. I know Starbucks in general is a great company with solid benefits and compensation however, people leave managers not companies. This particular manager had a very condescending tone and was the opposite of customer friendly. The workers at this and actually stressed out, very different than the other Starbucks locations as a myself in HR. I recommend that Starbucks management take a closer look at what's going on with the store manager at this location. read more

Great service but the music is SO LOUD, no way you can enjoy it!!! The staff did respond to a request to lower it.

I am consistent customer at this location and I love all of the baristas but, recently the baristas have been so sad there, it's uninviting, i spoke to the manger but her response were very robotic and superficial, I hope this location gets better soon. read more

You all are amazing. We usually don't do complicated orders, but I wanted to try something new and it was perfect. You all kept apologizing for making us wait, but we just waited three minutes. So we're ok Can't thank you enough. read more

Starbucks - Not sure...but it was soooo good. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vista, California

Staff was out of Frappuccino base. What the heck! Why would a Starbucks location be out of something they sell. Someone obviously did a poor supply chain planning responsibility. read more

This is my go to Starbucks for studying, coffee, and a nice place to vibe. The staff there is so welcoming, especially Jonathan! I always look forward to go here and I never leave without a smile on my face. :) (Drinks are always spot on too) read more

Absolute lunacy. I ordered via the app so I wouldn't have to wait in the drive thru. When I arrived the lobby at Business Park and PAR was closed. Why didn't the store disallow pick up orders? I called the store as I stood outside the locked door and cars lined the drive thru. I told the you g lady who answered the phone that I needed to pick up a mobile order. The partner who answered said, "Yeah. Well you can pick up in the drive thru." I replied with confusion, "So you want me to get in my car and wait in line to receive the coffee I ordered in advance?" "Yeah. You can pick up in the drive thru." Don't bother ordering for pick up if you're in a hurry to get back home to remote teach your writing class. You might have to wait 20 minutes in the drive thru. Absurd. read more

Starbucks - Sign says to use the app. I don't recommend it at this store. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vista, California

Their customer service exceeds my expectations! They are fast, efficient, friendly and precise. This last trip I was so impressed. I put in a mobile order to a Starbucks by my work and only realized my mistake when they couldn't find my order. I showed them my order on the app, and they honored my drink without an additional charge! That really is above and beyond in my opinion. Saved me a trek across town, and they don't even get paid for the order. They are ALWAYS friendly and kind. Thank you to the team and management at this location! read more

Whoever made my pink drink must have been kissed by the gods , IT WAS SO GOOD WTH.

Starbucks - Treinta pink drink - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vista, California

Frozen Bright Pink Blended drink aka Mango Dragonfruit Lemonade is great. Cool, refreshing & tasty. 50% off iced drinks on Wednesday afternoons! Strawberry Açaí sold out so I ordered the next best thing. this drink satisfied. Very Friendly service, all smiles. no wait. Air conditioning, lots of seating, instrumental music. Happy experience. I'd have given them a 5 star but they were sold out of my 2 favorites: Pink Drink & Strawberry Lemonade. Next time. read more

It's a 5 star Starbucks during the week and everyone is great but come Saturday they can't get a drink out the door in less than 25 minutes even with no line In the drive thru. Just avoid it on the weekends or waste your morning read more

I went inside to pick up some drinks and I had the worst experience. The workers look so unhappy, they might as well all quit because they seem to hate their job. A tall ginger woman with glasses took my order and she was so unkind. I will never come back because of how unpleasant and unprofessional my experience was. Clearly, the manager does not know how to run the business. read more

this place is the best for customizing drinks! they are so friendly and nice to talk to. i appreciate their kind manners towards customers. i like the atmosphere here and chairs are neatly placed with chill decorations. recommend this place!! read more

Starbucks - iced mocha with matcha cream foam - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vista, California

I love the convenience of a fast drive thru. No matter the time of day I always get my drink in 5 min or less. I appreciate the patience from the staff when I forget the type of drink I want. I always forget which strawberry refresher I like with the coconut milk. But honestly no matter which refresher I get they are all delicious! read more

This Starbucks can get busy. What am I saying, they all can, I suppose. But what I really mean, is that this parking lot can get insane around lunchtime and the way the drive-thru is setup - you may be set to get stuck if you park near the entrance. The best way to handle this place is to place a mobile order. Then park on the Jack in the Box side and walk in! That's a pro-tip for you. I like that the Barista's get to know your name. At least one did, Stephen, so kudos to him. He learned my name and my coworker's name. So that's pretty cool. And I always ask for extra ice in my drink and the barista's here actually put extra ice. Other places don't! read more

We get it, making Fraps sucks. That's one of the most popular items so it is what it is. To put up a "NO FRAP" sign but still offer iced gives the impression that you're cutting corners or are lazy and that's far from the truth. It's 90 degrees and you don't offer your most popular iced drink... kinda lame read more

I have never Been in this weird situation with Starbucks before So it's 9am Feb 3rd.. I went to this Starbucks before I head to my academy and that barista old lady with blonde hair She was really rude with me and she kept raising her voice at me because I have my drink wrote down in my phone notes And on the notes it says %2 extra milk And she was like "extra milk is not free extra milk cost money" so she wanted to charge me $2 extra I don't know how this work But I went to over 100 Starbucks locations No one ever been rude to me like that By the way the rest of the baristas at this location is great and they are usually the nicest people ever .. it only this lady idk what's wrong with her But anyway thanks for your services guys read more

I always come here and Brad and some of the other girl baristas always make my coffee and are extremely kind and helpful and their customer service is amazing. Today I came in around 1:20 pm and the guy named Nathan was rude, I was having an issue with my app and he said to call my service. He didn't want to help me and I asked if I could pay with my card and upload my receipt online to get points he said he doesn't know to call someone at corporate! That's not right you should be more helpful! My coffee was good as always but this person should get some customer service 101! read more

My husband and I were in the area, and since it was a warm day, we decided to get some cool drinks. It wasn't busy at the time when we walked in, but the drive thru was. Limited seating, but we decided to take our drinks to go. I hadn't been to Starbucks in a while since I had given up caffeine, so I asked the barista what would be a frap without caffeine and she recommended the double chocolate chip frap without whip. My frosty drink hit the spot and I was happy with my drink. My husband was happy with his iced vanilla latte, as well. Ample parking and other eateries to choose from in the area. read more

Compared to some other Starbucks this one is fairly quick in the drive thru. Always encounter great customer service and my drink is always on point. Definitely my go to off Palomar airport road. read more

Was accidentally given the wrong drink yesterday, I think due to a rush and the gentleman working yesterday when I called was very nice about and remade it for me today since it was late when I called last night.

Can't cpem inside to pick up mobile order meaning have yo get in line once you arrive. THE REASON I MOBILE ORDER IS TO AVOID LINES SO DUMB

Company needs to update their app if the store location lobby is closed don't let people mobile order and waste their damn money! And Employees are rude read more

Out of all the Starbucks drive thrus on San Marcos Blvd towards Carlsbad, this one is the best of them all. They get your orders right, the drive thru is quick and they are all friendly. I've sat in other Starbucks drive thru for well over 20 mins before during morning rush and at this location I'm through within 5 mins top! I decided to try the new sous vide egg bites with the red peppers and that thing is delicious!!! They are so fluffy and at 170calories total it is not bad for a light and quick breakfast. I recommend those to come through this one if you want your orders right and not be stuck in a drive thru forever! read more

I just want to give a shoutout to the staff at this location! I went there for several weeks to work part of the day in between offices and the staff was so friendly and kind to us as well as every customer that came in. It was actually a fun place to get work done. The team took pride in what they did to make their patriots experience a good one I do not remember all the names. They were all amazing and especially Emily she went above and beyond and really would relate to her customers Thank you to all the staff for great food, great coffee and a great experience. You all make it more than just getting coffee, people cannot help but walk out happy! Thank you for all you do!!!! read more

New starbucks to me...and the drive through is sort of odd. Well, not sort of...it is. It's smack between two buildings. So, here's my tip. Once you enter via Palomar Airport Road, drive behind Starbucks, follow the signs, and squeeze between two buildings. You're there. A starbucks is a starbucks. Usually, they're pretty consistent...and this one was no different. I couldn't see inside so it's hard to comment about indoor seating. Barista was friendly. My decaf seemed fresh and they had the pastry items my kids wanted. Solid 3 stars. read more

Had a wonderful treat this morning at my local Starbucks. Rather than cooking breakfast, popped over to get a five shot americano and egg white sous vide.The staff were friendly and on it! I was in and out in under five minutes and everything was delicious. I highly recommend the Sous vide eggs, egg white with red peppers and gruyere cheese. They have three flavors. I failed to get a photo..sorry! read more

I stopped by this morning, ordered two orders of egg bites, one bacon and one veggie, two tall lattes. The veggie egg bites were cold and fell apart as I cut them, not tasty at all. Probably old, do these have due dates? Please check prior to making them. Please make sure not to give crappy egg bites to me next time. I go in there quite often. read more

Being the elite helper that I am, I woke up with the urge to write and complain about something very trivial and leave a business a one star review. HOWEVER, this Starbucks absolutely blew me away!!!!! I ordered a coco puffs latte and a captain crunch frappacino. The frap tasted exactly like a captain it was absolutely delicious staff were incredibly kind. My ex husbands a boomer (the wORST!) and they were so patient and sweet when dealing with his embarrassing demeanor and lack of manners. Thank you Starbucks!! I'll be back everyday read more

There is a drive through here. Customer service was good and they were able to make a decent cafe americano.

With the increase trend in quality coffee roasters and abundant choices of coffee to choose from in north county, starbucks usually still has an edge due to its convenience factor (drive thrus/online) and par level coffee. Not in this experience. Starbucks decided to change their open hours without notice or warning on their social media platforms (yelp). They usually opened at 5 am, but surprisingly started opening at 5:30. The barista informed me, but had no reason for the change in schedule, nor apologetic. He says it's been changed to different times recently. Whatever. Let me just order my cold brew and be on my way to work. As I'm on my way to work, I take a sip of my "cold brew" to find it was the most watered down cold brew I have ever had. Even for an ice coffee, it would be considered water down. I'm pretty sure it's not always this way, but this experience turned me off to Starbucks. read more

We love this Starbucks! The customer service here is always wonderful. In particular, Amy Jo is always welcoming with a warm smile and ensures that your order is done to your satisfaction. Definitely a Starbucks to stop at to enjoy the morning! read more
