Starbucks

This is an adorable SB! Plenty of seating indoors and some outdoors, fair amount of outlets, efficient baristas who make the drinks right. Oh and there’s free parking! My requirements for a perfect Starbucks have been met here from what I can tell so far.
I wish this location was closer to home! I can imagine coming here a lot. There are plenty of tables and even couches. Seems to be middle class and upper crowd that comes here. I came late morning and it was busy but not too crowded, not sure how it is at night but I’d imagine a lot more busy.
Believe it or not, a lot of Starbucks cannot make my drinks taste good (either too watered down or too sweet or just otherwise wrong), but the way they made my iced white choco mocha here was EXACTLY how it’s supposed to taste – oh so refreshing and not too sweet but still delicious.
Needless to say, I’ll be back.

Nice big location with lots of seating indoors and a beautiful patio with a fountain. Parking lot is large. There are a lot of other businesses but spaces are plentiful. They have a separate bathroom for men and women although I don’t think that matters because the toilet seat was up when I went in. Also giving them 4 stars because this bathroom was disgusting !! I’ve seen better gas stations and it stunk! No excuse for this … I was here in the evening, not too crowded. The employees could have cleaned it up. I love this location though, I’ll continue to come back and hope they do a better job at maintaining the restrooms.

Starbucks is my favorite place to get any sort of coffee related drink. However, this location really knows how to half ass your drinks. When ordering my drink I made the same request 3 times to assure that they do it but yet they failed to do so. It’s a shame that this is the closest location to me but I am willing to drive a little further to not leave disappointed every time. Matcha green tea needs to be SHAKEN, I do not want to drink milk and powder. I will give them 3 stars because I’m sure their other drinks are better and the good thing about this location is the outside patio if you want to go relax there.

I frequent this Starbucks on a daily basis and the Baristas here have been nothing short of spectacular, especially Kriti and Stephanie who always greet me with a smile. #starbucks4life

Choose any other starbucks if you can. They get my drink wrong here ⁷⁄₁₀ times. Today was the final straw for me. They made my earl grey latte with English breakfast… I mean, come on. There is an employee, I believe her name is Megan, and. Boy does she hate her job! It is very clearly reflected in her attitude and performance. Get with it.

I normally don’t do this at 4 o’clock in the afternoon but when you’re falling asleep at the wheel that’s a no-​no only ten Miles to go and I am home sweet home. But I’m sure the triple shot will wake me up. This looks to be a nice and clean Starbucks. Right off the freeway which is very convenient

The morning crew is simply the best. I always order my food and drinks before coming in cause I come in on my break & they already have all the drinks and food packed up ready to go for me. All I do is walk to the end and they hand it off to me. Thanks for being amazing!!!

This is my favorite Starbucks in all the land… big parking lot, big patio, basically Orange County shopping center sh*t which I love (as long as it’s not in Orange County). However the guy taking drink orders doesn’t know a damn thing about taking drink orders. Idk, maybe I’ve grown accustomed to everyone working at Starbucks having a masters degree in Starbucks but he obviously went through like 30 min of training tops and they were like– just wing it you’ll do great. I still like coming here cause it’s puppy friendly but I enjoy a little side bar consultation with my drink orderer first before making my final decision and that wasn’t happening today so pouty face and the lines are always really long equals 3 stars.

Never a fan of Starbucks until I started working across the street. (No choice but to try it out, right?)
This is my spot, I sit and relax at the patio outside, usually during my breaks or just to feed my friends (birds).
Very peaceful at times (before school is over), there’s a water fountain and plenty of shade during the hot summer.
Keep in mind this place is located in a busy intersection in Encino and you’ll have to deal with a lot of honking and rush hour.
Also, plenty of doctors and attorneys in the area and business people, sometimes it’ll be hard to find a seat if the regulars are playing board games or you have a group of students.
The whole block has security walking around all the time, but you might find a few solicitors here and there.
Overall it’s a nice spot to sit and chat with someone if your close by, customer service here is great but it can get very busy, make sure you are willing to wait!
And please be kind to one another!
These guys are doing their job!
If you need to talk to a manager ask for jesse or Maggie. They’re the best.

I like this Starbucks a lot! There is plenty of parking in the lot, which is shared with many stores, including a grocery store. There is plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. One area with small tables is perfect for working. The other section has small individual couches, which is nice.
I love how the breakfast sandwiches are now bigger and tastier. They warm it up nicely and the service was excellent. The cookie I got was great as well. As I was working, they came around with trays of things to try. The oatmeal cookie, a frappuccino slush with whipped cream, and hot chocolate. It was like Costco came to me. Pretty awesome, although it did cost me a few hundred additional calories that I didn’t need.

Love this Starbucks. I come here a lot since I work near by and never have any problems. When I say extra caramel they actually put extra caramel and I love it!!! Thank you!

I work right across from this Starbucks location and if Dunkin Donuts were just a block closer, I would go there. My drink and sandwich are never ready at the same time, I have been over charged on my debit card three times in the past year when I reload my Starbucks gold card, the drinks are never that great and the service is just okay.

I come to this Starbucks at least 2 – 3 times a week. it’s a convenient location as I live nearby. There is outdoor seating and indoor seating. And a nice fountain outside. Sometimes at night it gets a little bit busy as they have small chess tournaments.
During the day depending on the time it could get a little busy. Often the line moves at a rapid pace. All the employees that I have met so far, are very nice and always have a smile on their face.
The Barnes & Noble’s is no longer there and is now a CVS. Starbucks is shared with many places in a small plaza including Ralph’s. The lot is not so big so parking could be a problem at times.

Kimberly was extremely rude. I get my regular drink and she wanted to charge me for an extra tea bag and classic pumps. When I told her that starbucks never charges me she proceeded to give me attitude

Stopped by this location since we were in Encino area. Had to try Starbucks’ Halloween drink– Frappula (White Chocolate Mocha with Raspberry Syrup. whipped cream blended in for me of course).love the drink! No complaints on this location. Plenty of parking, clean place, friendly staff and plenty of outdoor seating.

I like going to this Starbucks around the corner from our work it’s always busy but trust me it’s better than the Starbucks on Sepulveda and Nordhoff. It may be busy but the line is moving and they are quick on getting the orders out. The only problem is parking which shared with CVS and Ralph’s.

Great Starbucks
The morning is always friendly and efficient, a line tends to build during rush hours but they do a good job in getting you in and out as fast as possible.
If you get a chance to meet the manager she loves to chat is is extremely knowledgable on what Starbucks has to offer. All in all this store is great at service, consistent and I’d recommend it, since it is bigger than most nearby Starbucks.

This Starbucks is nothing special compared to other omes. There share a lot with the rest of the plaza and there are a few 30 min parking space in front of and next to CVS if you are going to be in and out.
I Have Been here a Few times when the line is long, but it moves quickly. The staff here is friendly, and usually don’t mess up my order… but they have done so on one occasion.
There is a variety of seating whether it is the leather chairs, the high tables or regular tables as well as the outdoor patio.
The bathrooms are clean and there is no code to get into them.
The menu is always posted accordingly and I like when they changed the idle blackboard to reflect what is in season… right now Pumpkin spice lattes… can’t wait for the Christmas holiday drinks to start!

This location gets busy, but is always clean and the lines go quick. I stop in now and then for an iced vanilla latte and been coming here for many years.
If its in a peak time the parking is a bit of a pain.

One of the best staffed Starbucks. This location is busy no matter what time you come here. I love the fact they are fast for you to get in and out. This Starbucks is located next to CVS on Ventura and Havenhurst. Whenever I am in the area I enjoy coming here to meet friends or clients. They are super busy. I love the fact they are fully staffed to handle the rush.
If you are a person who loves Starbucks you will like this location. They staff is always friendly here. They seating is always full inside and plenty of outdoor seating. A lot of parking in the private lot.

I frequent this Starbucks a few mornings when I’m not feeling my Keurig.
Service isn’t great it takes forever even just for tea? Even on days when it’s not packed up or there’s no line, it takes a while. And the lack of courtesy. Even ordering ahead I had to wait.
My sister loves the tomato fold overs those are pretty good.
Nice outdoor seating area. The inside is usually occupied. Or too many people. The outside is very nice. I’m more of a Peets gal or even the Coffee Bean.

This place gets 5 stars in direct response to awesome customer service provided by Miss Cleo Jr!!! I wasn’t even going to bother to check-​in but when someone gives top notch you have to respond. Thanks for the big smile & putting a little sunshine in my day. I needed that!

This is a great Starbucks. There is a huge parking lot so parking is never a problem. There is both indoor and outdoor seating with ample space for group meetings of needed. I’ve never had a problem with the service, but then again, I usually just get regular coffee. Bottom line: this is one of the better Starbucks.

Very busy but well run machine. Long line but only took me a couple minutes to order and get it.
Food choices seem to be a larger variety than most locations.
Plenty of seating if u are meeting someone

Super friendly staff, nice outdoor seating, pretty lighting and nice ambiance overall (thanks to the music here, too)! One of my favorite Starbucks locations in the valley. Nice mix of people on laptops, old friends catching up, and solo latte sippers. Community-​style tables, hi-​top tables, and leather arm chairs – there’s something for everyone! And, free, easy parking – excellent all-​around.

Pros: sweet, sweet caffeine
Cons: kind of a long wait
TL;DR: this is where I go to write my novel, which is about talking cats. But instead of writing the novel, I get frustrated that a book about talking animals makes absolutely no sense. Why can they talk? Why do they speak English? Where did they learn to talk? Why do they live in a magical fairy land? Why are they.. . I’M A TOTAL FAILURE OF A WRITER AND NOTHING WILL EVER COME OF IT SO I SHOULD JUST FOCUS ON MY DAY JOB AND BE HAPPY ABOUT THAT!!!
Jk.
That’s just the caffeine talking.
Also, the parking here kinda sucks. Pro tip: enter on Hayvenhurst and park in the back and make the walk to the front

Great customer service today. Veronica went out of her way to use my name and make me feel special. My food took less than a second to arrive and everyone was happy. Also the vibe and energy is nice. They have outdoor seating that faces Ventura blvd but in the shade. Great place to relax and just read a book.
