My mom, younger sister and I were taking a trip to Austin and we passed by here. My sister being the Starbucks obsessed girl she is, and me being the one to never to turn down starbucks whenever we visit, we stopped here to get some refreshments. One thing i noticed that is different from most starbucks ive been to is that you can actually see the person taking your order through the drive thru menu. We ordered the Caramel Macchiato and the White hot chocolate with extra whipped cream. It was really good and the experience was overall really good. read more

Even tho there are Starbucks near campus, I make the trip to this one for the BOMB drinks and good vibes. Also one of the workers felt like she took too long on my drink so she gave me a free cake pop so so kind read more

I'm not sure why people hate on this Starbucks so much. Every single time I've been here, I've come in contact with the happiest employees. I wish I remember their names. I come back here JUST for them. This location always has the LONGEST drive-thru lines so I usually just walk in and order my drink. The wait inside isn't nearly as bad. I've never had a problem with my order here. If you don't want to wait for your drink, I recommend ordering ahead of time thru the app. There are several seating options inside and a few tables outside that are in a covered area. The restroom has been pretty clean every time I've visited. Overall, I recommend this Starbucks location, it's my favorite one in Waco! :) read more

A staff that cares about customer service! Well trained and nice. The trainers at this store has to be some of the top trainers in the company because i see new faces and still get the same great service to along with my great coffee! THANKS read more

Such a cozy place. A great place to study but there is more seating outside than inside. The inside is very modern and updated. Bathrooms are clean and there are ample outlets to charge devices. read more

They do a decent job. The coffee I order is always good. I was surprised that I made it through the line one morning before work in about 12 minutes, they seem to have the mornings down. read more

I asked for my coffee to be remade because the first time it was watery and the barista thought it was ok to just add ice. I'm from Seattle and after being in Texas I can say this location has the worst coffee and baristas in the area. The attitudes here are extreme, it makes you not want to spend money with the company at all read more

Starbucks - Cold Brew Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Waco, Texas

Renita is RUDEST employee EVER! Ordered advertised product on poster and was told none of the ingredients were available. Then made excuses about why the poster wasn't taken down and that it wasn't her fault because she had just arrived. When customer dropped whole drink on way out, we commented that that was going to leave a sticky spot. Renita replied that "she would rather take care of her customers than to worry about that right now." Seconds later, customers were having to tiptoe around and over it to enter store. Just so unacceptable to make excuses instead of just saying, "you're right...we will see about that as quickly as possible." Whatever happened to training in customer service? read more

Nicest, kindest, most respectful staff I have experienced In many moons. Lovely smiles behind those masks. "Thank yous" and authentic appreciation for me and my daughter coming in this morning. read more

Always friendly. Excellent customer service. If you don't have time to wait for a high quality drink then go to Dunkin donuts and keep your complaints to yourself. read more

The worst most non efficient Starbucks I have ever stepped foot in. Tried to give them the benefit of the doubt and hoped it would get better but it hasn't. This Starbucks is very close to my house compared to the other Starbucks we have in Waco, Tx so that's why I go here. I typically use mobile order and almost every time I go to pick it up it's not ready and I always make sure to order 10 minutes before I get there. Additionally they consistently get drinks wrong. For example one time I ordered a black coffee with almond milk, I tasted it and it tasted like black tea so I asked for it to be remade. The barista argued with me and said it couldn't be wrong, so ended up renaming it 5 times before she figured out she filled the coffee pot with tea. Another one of my terrible experiences of many that stands out is when I mobile ordered and waited along with many other customers over an hour to get it because they were "overwhelmed". Also they are always out of items on the mobile app but then I'll get there and they have. Something needs to change at this Starbucks... read more

Went in this evening at 9:27 to purchase last minute gift cards for teachers. They had the doors locked! I was. It the only customer that arrived at that time, and all of them were upset since the closing time for today is 10:30. Why close an hour early? There was no notice on the door and the employees were inside hiding - we saw them peeking out to see if the customers were gone. I am disappointed since I have never had a problem at this location. But seeing how they hid and giggled really bothered me. What happened to customer service? Losing business during the holidays??? That's unheard of but I guess they don't need it. read more

This starbucks always takes FOREVER every time I have ordered coffee in the drive-thru. Also, not the most amazing service.

I agree sometimes the drinks are inconsistent. For me, it's mainly the sweetness. No problems with the employees - they get along pretty well. I get my order served quickly. Place is clean, I wish there was more seating because not everyone is going to want to sit next to one another at the only big table dominating the center of the cafe. For some reason, the flies are crazy there. I had to leave early because the flies were being super annoying today. Overall, good place for quick beverages! read more

Very rude employee who takes orders through drive through rushed finished taking my order before I was done. When I pulled up to the window I told them I had ordered a venti not a grande employee proceeded to act like it was my fault that the order was wrong and explain that if I had t used my stars I would have to pay the difference. She was very unprofessional and immature. Never have I ever gone back and forth with a starbucks employee over a simple mistake. read more

They are very slow and inefficient. I have yet to get here to find a complete menu available. I have tried using the app and when I arrive to pick up order my the items are not available. read more

This is my regular Starbucks and I enjoy sitting and reading or journaling. Everyone is really friendly but not as knowledgeable about coffee as they could me. I have had several run-ins with having to clean my own table or getting an eye-roll for asking for more cream but they are just people who have a bad day every now and then. Mindy, the manger, does a great job with the store and always talks with customers. Not the best store but I like to call it home. read more

Had a great experience here both times over the weekend. The first time I drove through the drive thru and the service was fast and accurate. The second time I sat inside. The wait time was nothing out of the ordinary. This is my choice of locations in Waco so that I can avoid the crowds at the locations on the freeway. read more

OMG, met a friend for a cup....we waited over 30 minutes, they gave us the wrong order. THEN....when we got what was supposed to be bullit proof coffee and her latte.....I don't know what it was. Itcwas like warm at best. Bottom line, I'm not a big Starbucks fan. This was my 1st & last visit. The mgr. Did come over to our table & gave us each a $4 gift card. She was very apologetic. There were several people working behind the counter. Was this a reflection of their lack of skills or setting the mgr. Up for failure???? If I wasn't enjoying my friends company & we didnt have alit to catch up on....I would have gave this Starbucks duces & went to check out Dunken Donuts. REAL TALK read more

The cashier recognized that I had never been to this store before and welcomed me to it. The barista called me by name when I picked up my Mocha and thanked me for my business. Plus, the always-good Starbucks music was playing at a not-too-loud level, which I haven't found to be the case at some other Starbucks in Central Texas. I do feel welcome in this cozy place. read more

This Starbucks is so close to my neighborhood I often walk there. I see someone I know every time I go there, which makes this Starbucks feel cozy and local to me when I visit. The first thing I do when I arrive is check out the Bookcrossing zone that is near the bathrooms -- I like the idea of trading books with the other people who go to my local Starbucks. Sometimes the tables are sticky. The staff behind the counter often seem frazzled and a little impatient. I think this is because the store is so busy. Most of the chairs and tables are occupied whenever I am there. I am generally happy with the quality of my drinks and they are usually ready pretty quickly. read more

I want to start off by saying that I thought this store was an amazing store when I first started working for them until we got a new manager things started to change and she took over the store like it actually belonged to her and started making up her own rules i never worked with a manager that only cared about herself she walks around telling the baristas that this store is not even the store she wants to work at that they are just stepping stones for her also she allows the shifts to smoke their vapes in the store one I witnessed smoking in the fridge. I started to speak up for the store due to the managers letting one certain customer to steal from the company I never get in trouble I always do my job and I'm always their when they need me but as soon as I spoke up for myself and this company about the manager stealing and the district manager stealing I was told that the customer that is stealing complained about me and made up lies about me I lost my job due to all their lies I'm a mom to twins and all I'm trying to do is live my life with love and truth I was let go because I stuck up for the company and now I have to figure out how I will pay my bills and keep a roof over my daughters head well they continue to steal from the company. I also want to say I love working for Starbucks and they know that and I feel they are taking full advantage of Starbucks. read more

Unorganized by 8pm; too many people working with one person making drinks. Unprofessional conversations, and too long of a wait for one drink to be made on the inside. read more

Our barista was super rude and short with us. She basically shoved our drinks in our face. Usually Starbucks has super good customer service but me and my family has had multiple issues with this location. read more

Great place to go for a quick drink, or if your needing to do some school work or socialize for a bit it's also a great atmosphere, has seating indoors and outdoors plus a mini lounge area. Even though the menu is limited on food items it is very delicious. read more

I love Starbucks but this location has a problem with consistency. Also when they charged my card twice they wouldn't refund me. Thumbs down! I hate when I order two of the same drink and one is good and they other one is like leftover water. Plus I'm in hurry in the morning so I can't go around and ask them to make me another drink. read more

Rude employees! Manager was counting out tip money and ignoring the line of paying customers:( 1 working the drive through, 1 working the walk ins, 1 making drinks... I asked for a fork when I got my drink and was told in a rude tone, " I would have to get it from the front counter" where was the customer service? I paid $14 for bad customer service! Won't be back to this location!!! Poorly managed! read more

SO slow. This is the second separate occasion that this Starbucks has taken 10-15 minutes to make my drink. Seems understaffed and undertrained. read more

That's my to go place! I've tried other Starbucks in town, this one serves me the best. They know me, they are cheerful..and they KNOW the secret Starbucks drinks that arent on the menu. So its delightful to order without the barista giving you the raised eyebrow and trying to figure what heck you just ordered. And they ALWAYS have every type of roasted coffee ready (light, house and bold)...if they happen to run out, they WILL brew you one at the very moment. They aim to please. Even on one day, I ordered a bold coffee, that one had been sitting for a while, they could have easily served me that one but NO, they said if you'd wait couple of minutes, we will brew you fresh one! read more

I don't know what has been going on lately, but the service in the drive-thru has been absolutely abysmal. Mostly in the afternoon time. The last time I was there I got there at about 4:30 and I placed my order. I sat behind about 5 cars and I didn't get to the window until 4:50. There wasn't even a, "sorry for the long wait" or anything. Just them telling me what I owed. Are there new people there who don't know how to make the drinks in a timely manner? I just know that waiting that long is ridiculous. And even going inside takes forever, too. And while the drink flavor isn't always consistent, they are still good. read more

Went to the drive thru before work, I asked for an iced earl gray tea, which I have gotten at many other Starbucks before. They made it obvious that this was very inconvenient, told me it would take five minutes to ice the tea down and that I should come inside. Really? What's the convenience of a drive thru? I went to the other Starbucks closer to where I work and they were wonderful. read more

I have been to at least 50 different Starbucks locations in my life, and loads of other different coffee shops all around Austin and in Texas. In fact, I probably have Starbucks at least once a week on campus (UT). This is undoubtedly the most unimpressive experience I've ever had at a coffee shop. The staff wasn't friendly, the vibe they created was depressing, I'm not sure that they smiled even once, and moved in a fashion that I would expect of a sloth. I actually came twice today (I'm visiting family from out of town) and in the drive through this morning I waited in line for 30 minutes with 6 or 7 cars in line and gave them the benefit of the doubt, after all it is the day after Christmas. The second time I went in with my mom because she wanted coffee, but we decided to go inside this time because there were only 2 people in line. We waited for 20 MINUTES for a cappuccino!! What on earth, no coffee shop I have ever been to has ever taken this long no matter how busy. So to sum it up, Starbucks is great but go to ANY other location unless you want to waste half an hour for a mediocre latte. read more

Ok, many chances given to this establishment. Coffee still inconsistent but prices are always the same. It's clear that all that matters are owners making money and consumer's, well, we're $*#! out a luck. No more money wasting for me. Hope owners enjoy my portion that went towards their yacht......! I'm done! read more

Worker stuck her fingers inside of a cup when picking it up..GROSS. Also took 11 mins for them to make me a watery frappuccino with melted whipped cream. I felt bad for the cashier because he even jumped in to help make drinks. Friendly but I will not return. read more

Tried this location again today right before lunch time. It's usually pretty busy here. The lady asked me what I wanted 3 times and I clearly said each time black tea lemonade with syrup. The drink I got tasted barely sweet like maybe it had 1 sugar package. That is NOT the same as syrup which is much sweeter. She also seemed lowkey rude. Ugh, not going back to this one... read more

I have never been to a Starbucks I did not like. Very friendly employees, clean, and of course wonderful coffee!!!

This will always be my favorite Starbs. Even with the grackles. Even with the traffic noise outside. I see people I know almost every time I go. The employees are super friendly and you get your order quickly. The bathroom is always clean. Recommended. read more
