Starbucks

Well, I keep driving myself back there, so whatever happens I only have myself to blame. This is truly THE slowest Starbucks ever. I think in the past two months I’ve spent so many minutes waiting, waiting in the drive-​through line while people march in and out of the store, that I was shocked when I drove through in under five minutes with one car ahead of me.
I will say when it comes to getting the order correct, it’s not as bad as the Marshfield store but definitely worse in terms of actual time wasted, waiting for my overpriced cup of caffeine, that I drove myself here for. The lot is pretty tight for space– you’re stuck in line and people who are leaving consistently have a complete disregard for the fact that you can’t get out of their way as they back into your car. That’s not Starbucks fault, but it does add to the general agita when you can’t get your damn coffee after sitting there for 21 minutes on a Saturday afternoon! (six cars ahead of me).
The window people are friendly enough, there aren’t any potholes to avoid, and the drive-​away from the window is handy enough, exiting right-​turn only on to Rt 3A — unless you feel that only applies to other people, not you? and yes I’m speaking about you black GMC who sat sideways and blocked the entire driveway trying to turn left across Saturday traffic — so it’s not bad once you reach the mountaintop. . but damn they’re slow!

This drive thru has to be the slowest I’ve ever experienced. I’m not sure if it’s in fact the employees or the customers who seem to be on Facebook while waiting to order. It’s unfortunate because the beverages I’ve ordered have been good and all of my orders correct. Can we just speed things up a bit? 10 – 15 minutes waiting for a coffee is ridiculous. And one other thing… stop shouting thought the order speaker. Please. It’s obnoxious. #byefelicia

This place is the singular worst coffee shop. Their drive through takes over twenty minutes for no discernable reason. I have sat at the window and watched then fill three new orders from the counter while I wait. This is on my way to the train and I’ve missed a number of trains simply because of their (lack of) speed.
Avoid this place.

I love good coffee and like other Starbucks the staff are well trained in their craft. One caution. There is a conflict between their craft and speed. Waits at the drive window can be long. While faster dd is not as good and more expensive

The service at this location is typically very slow, it’s a painful wait. Standard Starbucks with a nice renovation inside.

Usually a very good Starbucks, but very slow some mornings because the cashier there will take one customer’s order, then walk off when she’s done and go stock pastries or go into the back room and come back a few minutes later to take the next order. I have actually left twice without ordering anything. The drive through is more efficient than going inside.

This is a nice little Starbucks situated within Cohasset. It gets extra points for being relatively bright, and having a WiFi hotspot. Being someone on vacation who checks his email and discovers that he has 48 Hotmail messages (though about 35 seem to have been from the Unilocal discussion he started about Transformers), I appreciate the fact I can find somewhere out here that’s relatively easy to get to that I can check my email at.
