Starbucks

This is the best Starbucks in the Triangle, maybe in the State! I’m a regular so am very friendly with all the staff but I observe that they give outstanding service to each and every customer. The staff work well as a team, swiftly and courteously always. The beverages are made exactly as requested and if any drink or food does not satisfy, the staff go out of their want to see that the customer’s expectations are met. In cool weather there is a lovely and toasty fireplace and in warmer times a wonderful covered patio area with plenty of furniture. This is my second home in all seasons!

This is my favorite Starbucks to come to. The people are extremely nice and always fast. I guess I always choose the best times to go because I miss the rush and can get in and out under 5 mins.
My favorite drink is the Chai tea latte hot with no water, with soy, and moca drizzle on top. It is delicious and perfect for any weather. I don’t explore much of the menu but each cashier always gives me a tip on a drink I should try next. Nothing pumpkin though… I can’t stand the stuff!

The days you really need a strong pick me up not only will you find it in a delicious cup of Coffee but the staff at this location will also kindly pick you up with their warm characters. This has got to be a well managed staff as they never miss a beat and are always kind ! I will continue to enjoy my morning coffee here!

This is one of my favorite Starbucks to visit. The staff are friendly and the inside is always clean.
This is my favorite Starbucks to visit due to the outdoor seating. Not only is it a great people watching location, but there are fans to keep you cool on hot days, and an outdoor fireplace to keep you warm on colder days.

This Starbucks definitely has a more generous seating layout and refined interior than others on the immediate area. What I struggle with is that they consistently run out of the Blonde roast by 7am every morning. Ain’t no body got time for that… literally. Forget the fact that a Starbucks being out of coffee is akin to World of Beer being out of beer… but the fact that it’s a recurring problem should tell management to. oh I don’t know… plan accordingly?

The service is always great and they always make sure my cup of Joe is just how I like it! Doesn’t get much better than that :)
It also has a great «busy working» atmosphere and is usually packed with people on their laptops, etc.

No creamer in the house & a Starbucks on the way to work (& less than 10 minutes from my house)? It’s a no brainier I stopped in.
At 7:30 on a Tuesday morning & a packed parking lot, I expected a long line. Only three people in line & three baristas working AND utilizing the «what can I get started for you today?»
Taylor (at the register) was an absolute sweetheart. So pleasant & finally a Starbucks that regularly uses «can I get a name for your cup?»
In no time I was out the door with my hot skinny caramel macchiato in hand.
Clean store. Parking can be an issue, since other businesses share the same lot.

Love this Starbucks but the music they play in this particular store is geared towards eighty yr olds. How many 80 yr olds do u know come in for 5 $ coffees. Putting me to sleep.

This star bucks in the plaza part near panera bread. I was standing in line waiting to order and when I noticed that the guy making the coffee was rude to the lady in front of me. I didn’t take much notice to it because I was at the tail end of their conversation and it was non of my business but when I got up there to order he rudely and quickly told me I was in the wrong line. Also, while I was waiting the cashier never once asked me did I need any help and I looked at her several times. I guess she was too busy with her smart phone to help me. So after I purchased the coffee and then waited for it the guy rudely and quickly put it on the counter and never thanked or apologized for his behavior. I’m not sure what got him upset with everyone before us but if you need to act like that you need to just go home. I think star bucks is TOO big and didn’t really care about a few customers getting bad service since they are on every corner.

This is the slowest Starbucks I have ever been to. It is extremely understaffed, and it isn’t unusual to wait 20 minutes for a drink and a sandwich. I won’t be back.

I’ve been going here for 11 years. Managers come and go, though Mike has been here awhile and he seems great. Martha, John, Matt, Anthony and the long-​term crew — I take my hat off to their patience level sometimes. Lots of folks, all in a rush, all wanting special drinks made to order for them. Always a smile and a lot of fun!

Stopped in for a café americano it is the first time anyone has asked me if I wanted my soy milk steamed really made a difference this may be the best Starbucks I the area

Espresso shots are the best but no nutmeg :-(

Excellent staff, with great barista skills and personalities. If you do a good job hiring people, you hire good people, simple as that. Place appears to be kept clean, especially behind the counter when I’ve peeked. Regular drinks are well prepared, extra care given to ‘for-​here’ drinks, and last but not least, this location is one of two spots at the time of this review, few spots that sports a Clover Brewing Machine (the other is the 609 Peace St store). What is a clover machine you ask? Simply a really cool brewing system that uses a vacuum system to pull the precisely heated hot brewing water through the coffee. Makes one of the richest and fullest flavored cups of coffee I’ve ever had. Take the time to order one to have while you sit outside. If its cold outside, there is a fireplace that you can sit next to, indoors or outdoors. Novel concept. This is one of Starbuck’s ‘Reserve Coffee’ stores, so they carry small quantities of hard to find beans. They’ll grind up some for you to try through the Clover machine. No, I’m not an employee, just an occasional customer (whose occupation is as a telecom engineer). This is one of my favorite stores in the Triangle.

Good coffee. In and out service.

Typical starbucks menu and coffee, but this place wins points for ambiance. Plenty of seating and natural light, and the fireplace in the corner really is a nice touch. There’s also a lot of inviting outdoor seating on the large covered patio area.

A quick stop in this afternoon did not disappoint! I wish I could say I was reviewing this location based upon a fabulous cup’a joe, but alas I do not drink coffee! I will say that their customer service is superb though. :) I was greeted and kindly asked what I was looking for today.
I asked about smoothies and the gentleman pointed to the menu indicating that I could choose from strawberry, orange mango, or chocolate. Usually I’ll go with a safe strawberry, but today I decided to try something new and chose orange mango! Since I’d been running errands and stated I’d not eaten a thing he suggested a pastry, but I guess he could also tell I was trying to be healthy and abstain from those cake pops… so let me go without any pastries and happily put in my order for that smoothie. He asked for my name and I told him, along with spelling it out like I usually do. Well, this young man actually listened and spelled it correctly rather than just scribbling it on the cup…
A few minutes later a nice guy put my orange mango smoothie on the counter. After waiting in a room smelling of coffee so strongly that my sweater stilled smelled like it hours later, I was eager to taste my choice of flavor in the fruit smoothie. Good pick. Glad I popped in, tried something new, and enjoyed their friendly aromas!

Good coffee. Great service. Fast. lid stayed on (this is key).

It seems like a typical Starbucks, but oh so much more is lacking in the North Hills establishment. For a place that boasts a) trendy and b) upscale — this Starbucks misses both marks in its too small location, poor arrangement, and lack of any coffee charm.
I would highly rec’ hitting up the Starbucks across the way in the old North Hills development near Panera. You cannot beat their fireplace!

I love Starbucks and this is no different than all the others.
