Been here almost 3 years and this is the only closest Starbucks down south close to me . Been going to this Starbucks for almost 3 yrs and seen new faces that works there and still this Starbucks service is very veryvery slow . Either inside the lobby or drive through. Been in the drive through for almost 3 years and my regular time through drive thru is about 20-25mins of wait . Sometimes about 30 min waiting in line . Smh ! Way tooooooo long if I go and busiest hrs or weekends , sometimes I wait 45 min just in drive through .. I can’t believe it ! Not sure why it’s that long ! Almost every time .. it never fails . I hate it that I have to wait that long . Wish there was another Starbucks or maybe add few more extra employees during those peak of busy hrs .. Starbucks in Washington wouldn’t let their customers wait this long . Oh and one more thing , this place are not consistent of how they make the drinks . Sometimes it tastes different and don’t do it right . They need more training.

GREAT SERVICE! The barista taking our order was friendly and attentive. Forgot her name, but her tag said she was an Army wife. The only drawback is their serving system. The employees place the finished drink on the front counter and NOT by the first initial. They have letters there for that reason, but they're too busy to use it. While I was waiting for my order, I saw two ladies walk in and grab four drinks that they didn't even order. The younger of the two laughed and told the other, "You see? They never notice. It's easy to get free lattes from this location. " I should have taken a picture of the 25 orders, all gathered there and everyone picking up the drinks to check the names. Very unsanitary and unorganized system. Please fix it.

Starbucks is what it is, but Mr Bucks, PLEASE stop telling your people to ask for names. These kids behind the counter apparently don't understand SOUND TRAVELS! When you are waiting for you order, as a customer spending WAY too much for coffee, we shouldn't have to sit there listening to them make fun of our name, that is just terrible. I just started working in this area, but I will drink gas station coffee before I return to this location again. The manager should fire those employees.

Yummy! Came to celebrate our Jack Black's birthday with a Puppaciño for him and Bella. Jack loves the Puppaciños!! They personalized his cup, which we didn't get a picture of. Dang it. We did get plenty of other pictures. 4 stars out of 5. The staff was great but, when our order was ready, no one called us. So the orders sat there for a little bit. I finally went in after a few times and saw they were sitting on the counter. The outdoor patio could use some cleaning, luckily I brought disinfectant wipes and Lysol. Other than that we had fun and the pugs were content. We shall return.

  • Andra Whitaker

Absolutely phenomenal!!!! The employees here at this location are truly world renowned okay now I understand things take time to make but you have to be patient!! If you want your espresso coffee or whatever you're ordering to be perfect you have to be patient the employees did a wonderful job every single one of them. And I commend each one!! I highly recommend you guys come to this location. Fast, productive and quick on their feet

Hubby and I are always amazed on how long the drive thru lane is always lengthy during business hours and during ALL days opened, at this location. We always park and walk up for speedier service. On this particular day, not sure if the heat wave and/or gas prices are the reason(s) there was no line, but the line was NONEXISTENT ! We took advantage of this and ordered from the drive-thru!! The order taker was patient (for my undecided a$$) and courteous including the person at the window (two diff peeps). The items we ordered were on point! Thank you Starbucks Team!!

  • Lea

I’ve been sitting in line for 20 minutes now and have two cars ahead of me. I can’t leave because the parking lot blocks me in. The last time i was here the kid took my order at the drive thru box but when i got the window, they didn’t log my order in so they didn’t have my order ready. Not to mention i had to wait that last time for over 20 minutes also. Worst Starbucks I’ve ever been too and this is the closest one to where i live now.

As a former barista this was a painful experience! I have given this store several chances and will not return after today. I placed my order at 8:29 on the app. At 8:50 I received 3 of my 4 items order. I approached the counter to ask if maybe my drink got picked up by someone else by mistake. I was rudely informed they are barely at orders places at 8:14. At 9 I am still waiting for my drink.

They take my order but EVERYTIME I order something they don't ask to scan the stars on the phone. I don't realize it until after they ring up the order. Then they say that you can't get your points and it's too late to receive them. They tell you to call the phone number. They should let me know in the beginning. It's like you have to remember to tell them to scan the stars on the app yourself.If not you just lost your points

You have to cross the line for the drive thru to get to the store, meaning that you have to dart thru cars and not get hit.

  • Han Huynh

I had an unpleasant experience where I could not even redeem my stars for a free cup. They charged me full price, had to issue a refund, and then proceeded to charge me full price for it again. I understand that the cashier was new, but the management did not handle the situation well. They also responded with an attitude to the customers behind me who were getting impatient. I would rather drive the extra 10 minutes to the Starbucks down the road for better customer service.

  • Kara Henderson

I like this Starbucks! Never have messed up my order my coffees are always on point ! They don't skip on the Carmel like some other Starbucks do . It does get a little busy for the area but the wait is still decent. I would recommend going to this location the staff always greats with a smile and ade so happy it will brighten your day they make you feel welcomed even if you are in the drive through you get the same great service as if you walked in the front door!

  • Angie Pickensd9

This location gets worse by the day I swear and slower. I come here every single day and if it weren't for Brittany and her service and how close it is to my home I would never come back. I ordered a drink on app at 5am when they opened, arrived 10 minutes later and waited until now 5:35am and doors are locked and no drinks have been made. Still waiting....I have to leave for work soon! So I paid for something I'm not getting which has happened numerous times

  • Saul Trevino

For being one of the few Starbucks on the Southside they sure do run out of stuff a lot and give you attitude when you accidentally order it. They take for ever to get your coffee and just hand you the card back. No thanks no here ya go. Nothing just closed the window and went back to leaning. I waited to see if I could get a receipt but they had their backs to the window. Needs a new manager

Placing a mobile order and still waiting 20+ minutes and it still not be started is ridiculous. Sadly this is the only coffee place in city base, asked for a refund on my debit card & it went into my Starbucks account which was not what was asked. Overall it was just a waste of my morning before work.

This is a good location when they actually keep product in stock. They’ve been out a cold brew for at least a week. Seems like they always run out when there’s a popular item on the menu. It’s not like they are a new store. They should be able to know the volumes by now and prepare product accordingly.

The food and drink is always delicious but there is minimal interaction with the staff even when you walk up to order at the counter. The location is pretty busy and the staff is always moving at an efficient speed, but there is a significant wait if you don't order ahead or go through drive thru.

This is the worst Starbucks in San Antonio. They closed drive through and didn’t have the decency to put a sign up, however there’s two trashcans that are not blocking the drive through, I asked them to put a sign up and she was incredibly rude and said we don’t have one. This Starbucks is super slow, expect to wait 20 minutes.

Wanted to try the new chicken breakfast sandwich, ordered it on the app, and when I got to the office and opened my bag the biscuit was completely burnt! WTH?!?

I love it here. So peaceful. I just wish they had the sugars and creamers out already. They took them away for covid but I think it's time to let us prepare our coffee the way we want it. Other than that, I love this place!

  • Lawton Regan

Update: Drive Thru has taken 40 mins for a drink. I dont know whats going on but the management needs to fix it. This Starbucks is extremely busy 90% of the time. Additionally, they made my coffee and frappuccino as expected. Would recommend but be prepared for a small wait.

Its absolutely incredible how little the baristas don't care about your drink or you. You can tell by the very flavor of your drink. It's gotten to a point that a 20-minute detour to the starbucks down the same street is actually worth it.
