Starbucks

Probably the worst Java Chip Frappé I’ve ever had, I am still currently sitting here and trying to sip it down, but like their coffee usually is, it tastes incredibly burnt, and it’s over syruped. But mostly, I can’t get over this burnt coffee taste, and as I sit here writing this, the entire coffee shop has the «SOMETHING IS BURNING!» odor, and we are leaving soon.
My husband and I ordered a Tall (12 oz. these size names, still are so ridiculous) Java Chip Frappuccino, a Venti (20 oz.) cold brew, an old fashion donut, an apple fritter donut, and a tiny oatmeal. I’ve had a few bites and a few sips of my apple fritter & JCF, I am already struck with a nauseas wave & syrupy burnt taste in my mouth and my wallet is about $ 20 lighter. I instantly regret coming here instead of Black Crow Coffee in St. Pete, but we needed something in the Tampa area quick.
Alas, we are still in search of a decent coffee place up in the Tampa Bay Area.
Laura served us and she was helpful, no notorious Starbuck ‘tude, friendly service on this late Tuesday morning. We wished we could have just paid after we ordered but she didn’t tell us the total & take our card until after everything was made, warmed up, and served, but we were holding a lot of items and even though it’s a small detail… we wanted to just pay after we ordered and sit down to wait for our names to be hollared out like normal.
We almost left due to lack of parking, there are barely a few people in here but the lot was completely full.
Still searching for a better place, but it’s hard to come by in this area, so we settled for this Starbucks.
Meh, me thinks not for next time.

This location has a small parking lot that on a normal workday morning the drive thru is completely jam up! I prefer to recommend you the Starbucks on Anderson Rd. — by AMC 24. Due to very narrow direction of car flow it sometime can be HARD to access this location. Neither less to say it’s always busy. Drive thru is quick so I do suggest it unless your lucky enough to find a parking space.

Date night, Apparently there are 2 locations in Oldsmar and I was at one while the beau was at another. While I waited for him to join me at this location, I ordered my hot chai Tea. Jonah was absolutely wonderful. He was personable and friendly and exceptionally warm. We chatted about how our names are different (my alternate Id) and how we don’t often hear them, though mine is growing popular due to Animé.
Once my order was placed, it took only a few minutes to have it in my hands so I could wait for Bruce to join me. I’d come back.

Drive-​through was slammed and early-​morning took about 15 minutes to get coffee. The coffee was delicious I tried the new Punkin and a salted caramel. Got to the drive-​through to pay and the employee was very friendly made the experience worthwhile will come back again soon!

Staff isn’t very friendly inside they look very annoyed every time I’ve been inside, not very inviting to sit and relax and drink or eat, usually the drive through seems better to use at this location

When it comes to quality of products and customer service this Starbucks location is just normal. Most times when you walk in its clean, the bathrooms are decent and the drinks and food are average.
What does really suck about this Starbucks is not the location but how is situated on the edge of Hillsborough and Memorial Highway. I am surprised that there has never been any major accidents during rush hour traffic with people trying to get their morning cup of joe. Even when it’s not rush hour the parking lot is ridiculously small and the curve that you have to take to swing into the drive thru is bonkers!
When I’m in a time crunch or just feel like taking the chance and not heading the other direction to another Starbucks I’ll shoot to this location. If you’re looking for a lot of seating… negative! If you’re even looking for a space to park your car… head to another Starbucks! If you don’t mind taking a chance on swinging through the drive thru and it’s on your way to wherever you’re going then this Starbucks is convenient.

Customer service wise this Starbucks is good. Fast drive-​through, great customer service and clean restrooms, like almost every other Starbucks I’ve been to. So why just two stars? The parking situation is horrible! The flow of traffic is really bad, in fact dangerous if you see how the patterns move. I would be very surprised if there haven’t been any accidents or fender-​benders here due to the design of the parking lot. Having said that, it’s a block away from my office and convenient as heck, so I roll the dice to get my tall cup of Pikes… every single day.

This location makes my drinks right most of the time.
Unfortunately getting in and out of the parking lot when busy is not the easiest.

Among Tampa area Starbucks, this has shown to be one of the least accessible. The entrance and exit are difficult to access. There are about 5 parking spots available. (The other 5 belong to the Game Stop next door.) When the drive thru is full, you might as well not try parking for either one of those businesses.

Consistently great service. Clean bathrooms and café area. They do seem to run out of bottled water and pastries pretty often, though. I had a meeting and was starving so imagine my delight when I noticed they had a vegan (minus dressing) veggie and brown rice salad bowl! It was layers of yummy, well cooked brown rice, butternut squash, broccoli, world’s tinniest (but tasty) peas, toasted beets, kale, red cabbage, and roasted tomatoes. The side tahini dress is not vegan, unfortunately, it contains honey.. Otherwise, it’s a great meal if you’re in a pinch for a healthy, delicious and well portioned dinner.

Probably the absolute best drive thru for Starbucks. They are always so quick and so accurate.
This location sits at the busy crossroads of Hillsborough and Memorial, which has the possibility of huge lines of cars waiting for their morning coffee fix. Despite this, they completely own the issue and quickly, accurately and tastefully deliver the requested coffee drinks, and all with a smile.
After having spent over 15 minutes in the drive thru line at most other locations, I am happy to trust at this location that even when i am late, I know I can be through the always moving line, in just a few quick minutes or less.

I frequent this Starbucks location often on my way to work. Can I just say, that besides the obviously good coffee, the food is pretty scrumptious as well! I recently tried a piping hot tomato & mozzarella panini that was incredible, along with a satisfying piece of banana bread. My absolute favorite drink is a chai tea latte –milky, creamy, sweet, with some spice. Yum. Pumpkin spice lattes are up there too :)

Love this Starbucks but its really hard to get in and out of their lot, especially if there’s traffic.

My go to spot for my caffeine fix. Great location because it’s typically on my way to most places. Only bad thing is very little parking but I always do drive-​thru. The drive-​thru line moves along fairly quick so no big deal.

Great sbux, always fast service, although, no perfect rating because twice they haven’t had my favorite sandwich feta and spinach wrap in stock, otherwise they’re great.

I don’t like manager he kind of big and tall, he so mean, the way they serviced so not nice at all, they are only one store in Fl have bad service

I am a huge Starbucks fan generally, but this location just can’t get it right. The biggest issue has been that they always seem to be out of something I want to order.
Near work + a drive thru really should = Starbucks Heaven! They are so close to doing things well and I wanted to love this location but it just wasn’t meant to be. The staff is somewhat friendly and does a pretty good job. There is seating inside and out. The parking can get a little crowded, but not too bad.
The deal breaker is that they never have what I want! I drove thru for breakfast and they were out of oatmeal toppings… twice. I finally convinced my non-​coffee-​drinking co-​worker to take a Starbucks break and they didn’t have either of the teas she ordered, then they were out of honey. Today our coffee machine died at work and I went to Starbucks with an emergency order for the whole office — but they had no cup holder trays!
This place isn’t terrible, but it’s not up to the Starbucks standard. If you can avoid this location, do it.

This is the closest Starbucks to me and it is on my way to work so I have been here multiple times. I have never gone in as this is a drive-​thru location and I am always on my way somewhere. They are fast, very nice and efficient every time. I have never had any issues with my service or what I have gotten. The location can be tricky to get out of just due to the volume of cars at the intersection. Parking is also a negative, but that has never been an issue for me. I will continue to get my coffee here!

I’m a fan of Starbucks, like any other red blooded American. But this Starbucks, is my little piece of heaven. It’s not the biggest, the location is not the most ideal and the parking sucks, but the people are extremely nice. This is my go-​to location for my Starbucks.
B. Major Grade: B

Great location, friendly service, and they were out of Apple Juice. They didn’t have apple juice which completes my favorite drink. They have great service though and always a joy to sit in and read a book or chat with some locals. I’ll be adding my favorite drink to the tips. Let me know how you like it! @hyundoekim
