This Starbucks is nestled at the corner of a plaza. While they are not the largest nor do they have a drive-thru, I’ve always enjoyed this location. They use their corner space to great advantage and have a number of tables and chairs set up outside but well under the cover in case of sudden rainstorms. Nice place to chill out, read and sip! The service here has always been outstanding! There was an issue with my order on one occasion(they didn’t ask and I didn’t make sure to specify that I wanted a hot mocha not a frappé) and they fixed it promptly and with a smile. They even shooed me out the door with both drinks(which I suppose what were they going to DO with the other, but still).

A colleague and I decided on this particular Starbucks to meet for morning coffee. Starbucks are generally pretty much the same, minus the amount of seating each one has. This particular Starbucks has a pretty good setup. When you walk in there are several easy chairs a few tables and then a couple of high top type tables towards the back. Unfortunately this place is pretty popular, and based on the clientele, it seems like that is primarily due to this location being very close to high school. We wanted to sit and chat and were lucky enough to find an open table. The staff seemed friendly enough, filled the orders with a smile, and the coffee we chose was made to order and tasty. I personally prefer local mom and pop type coffee shops. Unfortunately in Tampa there aren’t enough of them around so Starbucks is a solid back up if you want to get a good cup of coffee, and have a place to sit and chat. This particular Starbucks is no exception.

Not my favorite Starbucks. Small store but due to location in Carrollwood it’s always crowded. There are a bunch of outdoor tables making this location ideal for a relaxing sip with a friend on a nice day. This location is in shopping center so there is no drive through. The take along food selection at this location is smaller than most. They used to have the quinoa lunches which I loved but no longer carry those.

Great place to sit or take-it-to-go coffee house in the area. Staffed is friendly and will go out of their way to remember your name and order. Although it is small compared to some other Starbucks it is always clean and the service is fast and accurate. Free wifi and they always have soy milk in stock which is important to my wife and me

Starbucks is my go-to place to work for one reason, and one reason only: free refills on tea and coffee(for members). I end up at the Carrolwood Starbucks because… location, location, location. But in a prime spot, you have to compromise on amenities. They are always crowded and never feel like they have enough seats or tables(except that one time their AC broke). The outdoor area iOS really just tables on the sidewalk and is nearly sitting in the parking lot. Plus, there is often a pretty long wait – with no drive thru. This is a spot to meet my caffeine needs, but it isn’t the most relaxing of locations or the best place to meet people – for that, the new one on Linebaugh isn’t really all that much further south.

Nice Starbucks with outside seating. Too bad they don’t have a drive thru like the one at Linebaugh and Dale Mabry, but this is in a strip mall and not a free standing building. They currently have a deal until May 10th where from 3−6pm, Frappucinos are half off! There is a new frappuccino called the«S’mores». I sadly was underwhelmed. I LOVE s’more flavored things. This had a burnt marshmallow taste and it was way too sweet and not frozen enough. I’d be willing to give it another try with another barista though. It was busy and the girl seemed overwelmed and«in the weeds».

CHAI!!! I swear sometimes that’s my battle cry. This day it was. After all, I was meeting a friend to pick up some clothing I’d left with her at the Ren Faire. We met up at this starbucks and the ordering process was quick, efficient and quite friendly. The prices were absolutely like they were everywhere else. and of course, the quality was just fine. This location is easily accessable right off of Dale Mabry.

No drive-thru, small location, mediocre staff! They seem less friendly than other stores not because they are snobby, they’re just clueless! I guess Starbucks is becoming the job of this decade, as compared to McDonalds of the 80s lol. It’s not exactly a happy store, not the Starbucks culture!

Great coffee and pastries. Gets very busy noon time. You got to try the espresso, they seemed to have changed the source of their beans, great woody flavor. Double shot gives you a much needed kick in the morning :;

All Starbucks are the same. Lots of money for really strong coffee. I get the caramel frap light with soy and no caffeine and sugar free caramel while shelling over $ 6. What’s the point?! I would rather drink my shakeology and make it into my own at home frap!

I stopped in for the 1st time in probably a year. Its slightly redesigned and it was not freezing cold. My drink was perfect, which was unfortunate because I drank it too fast.

As Starbucks go, I give this one a 3 because Carrollwood really should have a much nicer Starbucks. No real complaints but just not large enough for this location. So it gets too distracting also. The staff has always been very good here.

I have to say, Starbucks as a whole, I thoroughly enjoy. And even after trying multiple coffee shops, I always go back. But I always find myself stuck stopping at this one on my way to visit family in Hernando County, and I hate it. They are always out of almost half their menu items by 10:30am and the staff are incredibly unfriendly. I cringe when I have to go in, and find myself usually annoyed when I leave. To the staff, if you hate your job or can’t be nice, maybe the hospitality business isn’t for you, and quit. To the manager, please figure out your quotas and stock, running out of something three weeks in a row is pretty bad. Sincerely, annoyed customer.

I love being able to ride my bike to this location and just chill outside with my beverage. The barista is always friendly and although they can be busy, I can always find a seat to relax and enjoy my drink.

This is MY Starbucks as in I always come to this one. And for that reason they know me and remember what I like and call me by name. It’s always clean and the baristas are friendly and courteous. I wish I would remember to check in every time I come, cuz I’d probably be some type of Grand Puba of Unilocal by now!

My friend and I met here for coffee. The cashier was extremely rude. She was cussing as she rung up my friend and snatched my card from me when I was paying. Needless to say, she is always rude. That can’t be good for business. Lets also talk about the guy who took my drink order. It seemed to me like he was hard of hearing. I said«Skinny caramel latte» maybe 5 times and he still wrote it wrong on the cup and before I was even telling him additional things for my drink and he gave it to the barista as I was telling him that I wasn’t finished. I went over to the barista and told him what I wanted and he was very nice and apologized because he saw what had happened. We couldn’t see a manager on duty to tell this to, so I figured a review would do.

The people are always nice but I took away a star because they forget to stock up on cinnamon. They would go days without cinnamon. Note there’s a grocery store within walking distance and a Sam’s Warehouse less than 2 miles away on the same street.

Teenage girl barista chatting with teenage girl customers for three minutes about nothing in particular while I thought their coffees were being made. Then she took their orders. Reminded me of the«erhmagerd» meme. And I was jetlagged. Just did a redeye. And desperately in need of coffee. I was seconds away from throwing tables. FINALLY got to place my order and it was a standard interaction from that point forward. But seriously, talk to your friends in study hall, not when there’s a line in a coffee shop on a REALLY slow morning.

I purchased a drink yesterday and it ended up being made SO sweet that I had to throw it away!

I know I may be stoned for saying this, especially on a review for Starbucks… but I don’t like coffee.(Don’t hurt me!) I actually go for the hot chocolate. I like the taste of it and I can get a muffin or scone on the side. Very good staff, but the comments about size in the other reviews are spot on. However, its not like they can bust down a wall and expand into the parking lot!
