Starbucks

To be very honest and transparent never really been a huge Starbucks fan as the coffee is pretty expensive and the ‘coffee house’ brand ‘ experience is very dated 1990’s. Sitting around reading books, doing computer work isn’t really possible in such small locations. And clearly reduces how many people you can get through the doors. But, out of necessity and hoping it had changed went in the one in Dartmouth today - first return to a Starbucks since the pandemic.nBut turned and walked out. Large seating Tables occupied by one person, computer open making the one drink last hours. Tables pushed against the wall close together and just felt like a work meeting place. Looked like the drive through or grab and go is now the priority. You really have to be a fan to keep going back- guess you either like it or don’t. Not surprised they are a struggling brand.

I usually enjoy visiting this Starbucks, but my experience around 8 PM yesterday was extremely disappointing.nWhen we placed our order at the drive-thru, the employee asked us about modifications in the drink and when we gave our answer, he laughed mockingly right after. It was rude, disrespectful, and completely unprofessional.nWhen we asked about it, he didn't seem to realize his mistake and gave a joking apology instead of a sincere one. As regular customers, we expect to be treated with respect, even if our order has a few customizations.nI hope the management addresses this and reminds the staff to maintain a friendly and courteous attitude toward all customers.

My girlfriend and I dropped in to grab her free birthday drink today. The people who served us were awesome, one of them was new and training and killed it. They were super friendly! The only issue with this experience was how long it took to get our drinks, it was around 10 minutes which is a bit long for Starbucks, but alas. The store is also cramped and not the best for dining in, however it's definitely designed to be a drive through location. The drinks were great, and the cake pops too!

Friendly and super efficient staff!

Not crazy about this location. Seems like a long wait. Nothing really special for the price of coffee. A small drip coffee for over $4. Not sure what a latte would be? Second mortgage maybe...or at least throw in something like a spa day or an oil change...lolnWon't be returning to this location.
