Came on Thanksgiving. Sugar Cookie Latte with Sugar Cookie Cold Foam was a 10/10. Iced Caramel Brulee Latte was super good too. Service was quick despite how busy they were. read more

Could have done without the attitude when I asked an employee for a straw. He was literally standing there doing nothing. Gave me a dirty look then proceeded to look around the corner at the drink I had to verify my straw approval How else should we drink it? Sorry for your troubles. How outrageous of me. read more

I happened to stop at this Starbucks while we were doing some shopping in the Belmont Plaza shopping center. This store sits by itself in the plaza, not attached to any of the other businesses, so it makes it a bit easy to find parking and to maneuver around since it is a stand-alone building. I placed an order via their APP where you pay online and pick up at the store, the process itself was very easy. During the weekends, this particular store can get very busy, so patience is key here. Starbuck's story begins in 1971 along the cobblestone streets of Seattle's historic Pike Place Market. It was here where Starbucks opened its first store, offering fresh-roasted coffee beans, tea and spices from around the world for customers to take home. The name was inspired by the classic tale, "Moby-Dick," evoking the seafaring tradition of the early coffee traders. Ten years later, a young New Yorker named Howard Schultz would walk through these doors and become captivated with Starbucks coffee from his first sip. After joining the company in 1982, a different cobblestone road would lead him to another discovery. It was on a trip to Milan in 1983 that Howard first experienced Italy's coffeehouses, and he returned to Seattle inspired to bring the warmth and artistry of its coffee culture to Starbucks. By 1987, the baristas swapped their brown aprons for green ones and embarked on their next chapter as a coffeehouse. Today, there's Starbucks in over 80 countries in the world and some people are addicted to the brand and their coffee !! read more

I frequent this Starbucks often. There is no feature to order a pup cup through the mobile app. Most of the employees are very pleasant and provide the pup cup with a smile. However, the manager Gretchen consistently gives an attitude and forces people to go and wait in line rather than quickly just providing the pup cup. I try to avoid having to interact with Gretchen but unfortunately today that wasn't possible. Given the amount of money I spend at this particular Starbucks as I am a local this customer service experience is unacceptable. read more

I ordered a matcha. It came out with blonde espresso with matcha. We went back to order and the people were very slow and when we got the drink, it was not mixed and had green chunks in it. Try better next time. read more

Worst customer service. Rude employees. I can't understand how they justify these prices with such bad service.

I don't know why there was a 3 star review? I had a great experience at this Starbucks. Everyone was friendly, helpful there shelves were full of great ideas for gifts! The barista fixed a perfect latte for me and a incredible flavorful Hot Chocolate for my husband. It's located in a easy to get to shopping plaza. read more

I'm not quite sure why this Starbucks has such negative reviews and the reactions I just witnessed from a customer shows me why. Some of you need to learn a little more respect and patience in life or put yourself in their shoes for once. I have been going to this Starbucks since I was in high school over 12 years ago and I have never had a bad enough experience worth leaving a bad review over. Sure sometimes you have to wait a little bit longer than normal to get a drink. THIS IS THE ONLY STARBUCKS IN THE ENTIRE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE STATE so deal with it and show the employees, most of which are high school and college kids, a little respect. And to the little brat who said he's worked in a Starbucks before so he knows what lite ice means, your attitude says otherwise. To the two girls that were behind the counter making drinks for the line that was almost out the door on top of mobile orders flooding in, just keep up the good work. read more

never shake the refreshers. even when asked to. as a former starbucks employee this is unbelievable because its literally part of the training to shake the drinks. we asked a barista to shake our drinks and she argued that they were always shaken despite us watching her not do it. read more

I'm not a big Starbucks fan (I make my own coffee at home and bring it to work, if that tells you anything), but lately, Mrs. C has been on a Starbucks kick, particularly, cold-brewed coffee with salted caramel and cold foam. She's been trying to replicate it at home, but can't duplicate the foam. That's what she ordered here Sunday afternoon, and I have to say, it was good, (and I'm someone who usually detests cold coffee). Since we had been riding a motorcycle and it was 90 degrees, I just wanted a lemonade. Although I didn't see it on the menu, the staff was accommodating and made me a glass. I could see it was from a powered mix, but it was still pretty good for what it was. So, the quality of the drinks was good, and service was appropriately fast and polite. Plus, they have two bathrooms. So why only three stars, then? Although the drinks are pricey here, I didn't factor that into my rating (hey, it's Starbucks - you have to expect that). Basically, I just didn't find it an inviting or comfortable place to hang out, which I would expect if I'm going to pay a premium for beverages. First, it's located in a large plaza, and the building itself is tall and imposing, like a monolith. While they do have a few outdoor tables in front, they have zero ambiance (unless you enjoy looking at parked vehicles). Plus, the afternoon sun beat down on me. Inside, the layout is odd and felt confining; most of the seating is on the other side of a floor-to-ceiling dividing wall, behind the service counter. Plus, there were several merchandise displays in front of the counter, for things like $24 travel mugs, so I felt like I was constantly being marketed to (well, I was, but it was almost literally in my face). Lastly, the music sucked, like it was trying too hard to achieve a hipster vibe. It was really odd and disturbing to hear a classic Talking Heads song done as an artsy-fartsy remix. read more

Regardless of the number of employees behind the counter no teamwork no leadership. District manager should be fired! Been like this since before COVID. Go to Dunkin or Tim Horton if you want actual service. They could only move faster by moving in reverse. read more

Had a very similar experience to others who recently posted reviews. My daughter, she 18, and I went inside and we were ordering separately, but were standing together and the same girl/manager screamed at us to social distance even after we told her we were family, but needed to place separate orders/paying separately. Later on as I waited for my order she yelled at the young man be hind me to "Please social distance! And step back." She was absolutely rude and marched around the store like she was so more important then her coworkers and the customers. I will NOT be stepping back in that store ever again. We all get the importance of social distancing, but this girl is such a Karen. The other employees seemed either of the same mindset or just miserable working there. Horrible service and totally uncalled for. read more

I've been waiting for a coffee I mobile ordered over 45 minutes ago. The manager is rude, yelling at her staff to do pointless tasks while she stands there and organizes the straws that did not need to be organized. I have had many bad experiences at this Starbucks but today was the worst, a line of over 30 people who all waited over 30 minutes and were yelled at if they asked for a refund because they had to get to class without coffee after waiting so long. I will say though the workers were all trying their best, were so nice and continuously apologized for the wait. Definitely a case of bad management. read more

Rudest employees! The girl hissed at me when I didn't understand her. The last time I was here I put sour half and half in my coffee. They had left it out too kind, admittedly.... read more

I love starting my mornings off getting my decaf iced mocha and a cheese croissant or other breakfast treat. It's my favorite location! The employees are always so pleasant and I love the Spotify music. read more

manager is bizarre, loud, and rude. staff is poorly trained and very slow. they always seem annoyed with the manager and the customers. worst starbucks ever. read more

Do not recommend this location due to encountering some rude employees. Most Starbucks employees are very friendly, but the workers we spoke with were anything but nice. Not a good representation of Starbucks. Highly recommend going to a different location! read more

Slow, waited 10 min before i left. No acknowledgment at counter while things were being stocked.

We stopped there before church. 20 minutes for 2 coffees! The excuse was because of a shift change the order got lost.

Reading body language and facial expressions is easy... When the staff makes me feel like I don't deserve to take advantage of the promotional Dec. 2020 free coffee for first responders (I'm an EMT for 2 agencies, work in the Covid field hospital, and volunteer without pay) that's unfortunate...like who do you people think you are? I am out here getting paid minimum wage during a pandemic to save lives even though I have a college degree (I'm not an EMT because it's my only option- I want to do something meaningful)? What do you do? Please shut up and make my coffee with a smile. Thanks. read more

I have always had good experiences here. Today the girl seemed to be pretty busy making all the drinks by herself. I felt bad for reminding her my drink was light ice as she was jamming the ice in. But she quickly removed some of the ice and I was good to go. This is my closest Starbucks and I go a couple times a week since it's along my route to and from the gym and my friends house. read more

I have never been so astonished and ashamed of Starbucks. The workers here are so horribly rude and disrespectful to people it's embarrassing for the company. The way the employees talk and and interact with costumers makes me never want to come back. They rudely yell at people when they're not exactly 6 ft apart l- it's not what you say it's the way you say it, they roll their eyes at people who are ordering, and they don't have any kind or welcoming behavior. Don't support this. read more

Make sure to have your iPhone , iPad , iPod , and Mac charged 100% to spend quality time alone.....coffee is good and I recommend the cake pops read more

I've been here a few times. Isolated at the wrong end of the Belmont Plaza, the building is constructed strangely. When you enter you face the front counter immediately and there are islands of merchandise to the right. After you order your drink and/or food you can find a place to sit behind the wall of the front counter. There is a huge window that offers a wonder view... ... of the traffic intersection? How lovely. The coffee is purposefully burnt at Starbuck's. That's how they prepare their beans so you can't blame the clerks. Over priced and overrated Starbuck's "graced" Wakefield even though there are almost as many coffee shops as their are package stores. This one is for the Yuppie who needs his brand name. Another tip: don't leave out of the exit to the left of the parking lot unless you want to go to Route 1 you can't cross the median, it's made of concrete. read more

Twice they tried to make a white chocolate mocha Frappuccino and both of them lacked first ingredient. Coffee!! Almost $6 and no pep in my step. read more

I honestly cannot believe the unprofessional service I received at this location. I went there today to order my daughters drink which we have ordered at I can't tell you how many Starbucks across the country as we do a lot of traveling. Not only did they tell me I didn't know what I was ordering but they basically said that they don't break the rules? Whatever happened to the customer is always right? They said the drink would break their machine?? I noticed I'm not the only one who had issues at this location. They better change their attitude before they have to close their doors. They literally tried to embarrass me which would never work as they were embarrassing themselves. They looked like a bunch of unhappy employees. the manager may want to rethink his or her hiring strategies. I was trying to give no stars but had to pick one just to post this. read more

this was THE WORST experience i've had with this location. i received my drink (a strawberry açaí refresher) and it was light pink. meaning it was mostly water. they also filled it to the brim with ice. this location is sloppy and lazy with their service. specially those working in the afternoon.DO NOT GO HERE read more

I have never had a bad experience with Starbucks until I came to this location. Horrible experience EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I honestly have no idea how the employees got hired there. They have no common decency for the customers and have no idea how to say anything without being rude. One specific employee is extremely rude when it comes to covid regulations. She does not enforce in a nice way. The other day when I went in I waited in line for almost 20 minutes with only 4 people in front of me. Once I got to the register to order, I was staring at an empty register for 5 minutes while the employees gossiped behind the counter. I will drive the extra 20 minutes just so I don't have to go to this Starbucks again. read more

A very good Starbucks and the most unorthodox layout I've ever seen. For a beach Starbucks, the staff does not turn over much. They make amazing drinks and are very friendly. What more can you ask? I find that Starbucks is different from location to location and this is my 2nd favorite. read more

Another iteration of the ubiquitous chain. Is it better or worse than any of the others that I've been to? Not at all. As others have stated, the layout is bizarre, but I've never stayed, always taking my drinks to go. That being said, I would be hard-pressed to suggest this as a place to meet someone for a cup of coffee because of the layout. There are a few other places in the area that have better options for coffee with seating. But again, it's a Starbucks, and every time I've been there the staff has gotten my drink correct (which should not have to be noted, but don't get me started). Maybe because I'm not a regular yet, and not on a first name basis with the staff, but I haven't noticed that the staff is particularly friendly. Not saying they're rude, but just rather business-like. I'm not looking to be bff's with these people, though, so it's not a truly big deal to me. read more

I went in to get a coffee. There is one customer waiting to receive his coffee order and nobody else in line. I walk up to the cash register and after 2 minutes someone says "we'll be with you in a minute" without even looking in my direction. Right as she was done saying that she laughs. I wait 2 more minutes...there were no customers and 4 employees and nobody could look me in the eye and say what would you like? I walked out. These employees dont know how to communicate with customers and should be retrained. I will only return to use the bathroom. read more

Worst Starbucks I've been to. I understand that things are different since the pandemic but if I walk in with someone and we're told to social distance I find it to be a bit much. Both myself and the party behind me came in and were told to social distance from our friends in a very unfriendly way. Service was slow and baristas had a sense of entitlement that was not to company standards, I'd put the extra mileage on my car to go to the next closest Starbucks. read more

This starbucks has the rudest workers I have ever seen. I have been in a few times within the last month and the same lady is always working and just miserable and yelling at customers and being completely rude. My friends have had the same issue with this starbucks. Go somewhere else to get your coffee if you want to be treated with decency. read more

Ok...so I am an avid Starbucks drinker and have had plenty of Starbucks experiences. BUT this was by far the worst my order was completely wrong and most of the drinks that I ordered were missing things that I had asked for.. on top of that the woman working named Gretchen was the rudest worker I have ever seen she was screaming and raising her voice at customers and all the workers and was not the slightest bit polite..every customer that walked in was screamed at by Gretchen wether it was to stand on a dot or not to walk in to pick up a Mobil order (basically just very minor things that could have been addressed appropriately in a nice manner) do not go to this Starbucks if you don't want your order to be wrong or if you don't want to be yelled at by Gretchen.... read more

The big dumb looking guy made me get out of line after being in the store for 10 min (line not moving at all btw) because I was with my girlfriend and they were at capacity. So when someone else wanted to come in rather they stand outside and wait he told them to wait outside then asked me to leave. So I told them fine but now I wasn't buying anything. Back to dunkin you fancy pants over priced burnt trash! read more

I had the most terrible experience at this Starbucks. Abby (employee) was extremely disrespectful, rude & aggressive to my children, their friends & myself. She was eye rolling when ask for a tray, stared & screamed at me while I waited in line for a drink that was missed during the initial order. She stared at me & screamed across the store "What's your problem?" While I was waiting to order. Before I came in the store she yelled at my daughter & friends for touching a drink put in their tray by her that wasn't theirs. She accused them of drinking it & then aggressively threw it out. She pushed my daughter & her friend out of her way while trying to put a drink on the mobile table. Once I came in she was rolling her eyes at me, making faces, shacking her head & spoke extremely disrespectfully to me during our visit. She told me that my children were being "disruptive". When I asked her how, she really couldn't answer. Saying something about standing in front of the mobile table. Then she said she apologized & I asked her when did she apologize. She said I am now & I thanked her for that. Then she yelled at me, "I'm not apologizing to you, I'm apologizing to her! (Referring to my daughter's friend). She continued to stare, shake her head & make faces. I did ask for the manager who was off & this girl was the shift supervisor. I will follow up on this. It is not acceptable. Would give no stars if I could. read more

Good staff and workers. Of course, always the good Starbucks coffee. Actually, a very convenient location. However, they close way too early. Went there on a Saturday once and there were closed by 8pm. It was kind of weird. Also, it is very crammed inside. There isn't really any good seating at all (for the lack of seating anyway). It's probably not the best place to work on stuff either. Really loud, between the workers yelling and coffee-making. If the interior were set up well and if they were open later, it wouldn't be such a bad Starbucks to visit. Otherwise, I don' visit at all. read more

never open. only open on their own hours that are not posted anywhere. when they are open there line is out the door so slow and ordering on the app is unavailable. avoid this location at all cost they should just close at this rate. read more
