Starbucks

I love this location. The building is made of recycled shipping containers so there is only a drive thru and walk up window, no inside area, but I love it! Such a great idea!
They are really fast and super friendly. They always get my drink order right, but they do tend to sell out of pastries and baked goods by the afternoon — apparently they’re super busy around the Boeing shift changes.

This location is at the end of the drive way to my office so it’s the one I go to atleast once a week.
The shipping container structure is funky to look at, but still a cool environmental idea.
The staff is always friendly and one gal always remembers my usual order.
The drive through line in the morning can be a pain, so you have to make the quick call of parking your car and using the walk up window or waiting it out in your vehicle.

I waited 20 min in line (not a big deal, I know they’re busy at that location) and the service was friendly. I asked for a Venti drip coffee. By the time I got to work 8 minutes later it had leaked everywhere, unbeknownst to me, into the cup holder and down the side of the center console. I opened the lid and it was filled to the very top (after leaking). No wonder it leaked, there was WAY too much in there! I also asked for extra hot and got luke warm coffee. No longer worth the wait.

I’ve been coming here for almost 3 years to get my morning coffee, but the staff has been serving me lukewarm temperature drip coffee this week for the 3^rd time for some reason.

Great location for Boeing employees. You can also walk up and there’s a window. It’s built out of old cargo containers. So it looks really interesting. Staff is always great and happy to help you. The coffee is what you expected any Starbucks. It’s easy to get in and out of and plenty of parking. And there’s also seating outside. Close to all the bowling buildings down there. What more can you say about a Starbucks.

Daily, there is a cast of thousands behind the counter, but for some reason the walk up counter is a general cluster***
In addition to being ignored (while the line grows), the orders are like a box of chocolate; you never know what you’re gonna get”.
Handy hint: Make sure you double check what you ordered before you step away from the counter.
Also I suggest the drivethru would be quicker and probably better customer service.
Overall, it’s frustrating to deal with the walk up window. With such high demand of this place, you would assume that they would get their act together.

I love this Starbucks! The service is great. The Starbucks itself is uniquely built. The drink are made fast, people are friendly. Great and convenient place to quickly stop and get a drink or snack.

I come here once or twice a week because it is right down the street from my work. Cool echo-​friendly drive through starbucks made out of old shipping containers.
I give them 4 stars because they are consistent. It is always busy and the lines are long in the morning but they get you through as fast as possible, they are friendly and I haven’t had any issues with my orders.

Their espressos here taste strange. I normally get Americanos at Starbucks all over the U.S. and I repeatedly sense that it is much weaker here. I’ve never had an issue with Starbucks consistency from location to location. I’ve gotten Americanos with 2 extra shots twice, and both times it seemed off.
Over here, I just get a dopio (double espresso) and add some crème.

If you read a lot of my reviews, I go to a lot of coffee shops. This is the one I check in the most, not only because it’s close to where I work, but it’s also my go-​to because it’s fast and the staff is friendly. I have to add that this is a very unique store! The store is made from shipping containers and essentially is just a drive thru/​walk up Starbucks. There is no indoor seating as well. Overall, the lines are super fast and the staff always serve your drinks with a smile on their face!

In a word — inconsistent. Annoyingly so, the only reason I even go to Starbucks is for consistency and this one lacks. Guaranteed messed up order about every 3^rd or 4^th coffee.
Oops — this review is meant for the Starbucks near Quiznos and Jack in the Box

One of a kind store. It is made from re used shipping containers. Got a drive thru and dedicated walk up window. I would consider it more a coffee stand than store. Good service as well

Very friendly and helpful at walkup window in offering carry tray for my several drinks. Constant stream of traffic in drive through.

This is such a cool Starbucks! It is not a traditional store, more like a drive-​thru built out of reused shipping containers with an outdoor patio seating area. You can walk up to the window to order, but don’t expect to sit down inside. This is a great place to enjoy the sunny weather and catch up with friends you want to meet just off the 5. For those who prefer a fast drive-​thru, this is the place to visit.

This is a neat Starbucks. I don’t think I have seen any other stores like this. We lovingly call this store the Container Store because it is made out of shipping containers.
There is no indoor seating. It is all outdoor. There is also a drive thru at this location.
I have been here twice and service is just fine. The menu is nice because it looks very compact and I usually don’t see menus like this.
During weekdays this store opens at 4:00 AM (!)

Since Starbucks tends to look the same everywhere in the world, this one clearly stands out in style and I applaud them for that. As reviewers have said below its made out of an old shipping container and basically a bunch of other recycled materials. There’s a drive-​thru and a walk-​up, and some chairs/​tables outside. Drinks /​food is standard, but its very cool to see the workers utilizing such a small space to the max. Great service here too!

My rating is purely on the location of this place and has nothing to do with their coffee consider I didn’t even order their coffee. I don’t expect Starbucks coffee to be any different than other Starbucks coffee.
Given that, this is a pretty fun location to stop by. They build this purely to show the container that carries the Starbucks coffee. It is a drive through with couple of tables on the outside. When it’s not raining in Seattle, it’s neat to sit down and enjoy some sunshine.
My friend who is a big Starbucks fan says that it looks pretty nice at night as well. Great place to impress a date. *Hint Hint*

The 2 big draws:
1) Drive-​Thru &
2) Re-​used shipping containers
The shape they used for these stacked metal boxes is great, too. This all lends itself a nice, cool modern and bold touch with a great design package using Sbux’s rustic/​NW dark paint scheme.
The ladies over the mic and at the window were very friendly and pleasant.
This is also one of those «Morning Crunch, Afternoon Hunch» kind of places: Morning business rush followed by the Big Drip… did… did you see what I did there???
The menu showed good standard stuff for the masses; of course, there is the «off-menu-maybe-didn’t-fit-on-it» stuff, as well! I inquired about such items. Muffins, donuts, pastries… 1 old fashioned donut and a grande soy chai, please. Pretty good if you ask me.

Officially Washington’s best Starbucks.
Today, as I was holding the drive thru line up with my 2 coffee + 2 sausage breakfast sandwich order, I had the best conversation with the nicest woman at the window. She made me feel comfortable when she could tell my anxiety was building after waiting more than 3 minutes for the sandwiches.
Me — «I’m holding everyone up»
Her — «It’s cool, I know them.»
We discussed how awesome the Seahawks are. — very important
The soy chai tea latte I ordered was on point, and those sandwiches were piping hot. Quite possibly the best sausage breakfast sandwich ordered from a Starbucks ever in my breakfast-​ordering-​at-​Starbucks career. I left there smiling and thinking «I am totally going back to that one».
Anyhoo, those were the nicest and friendliest Starbucks employees that I’ve ever met. I thought that, plus that sandwich, deserved a 5 star review.

Um well, I saw this Starbucks as I drove by on my way to work this morning. I thought, «Yay, something to walk to!» (I just started working nearby).
So now its lunchtime and I walked all the way here… to find there is no indoor seating area. Say what??? Only a drive-​thru and walk-​up counter. And its cold and the outside seating is wet. Color me sad.
On the upside, the staff are incredibly friendly. And the design of the building is cool — it’s made of shipping crates.
But…maybe add another shipping crate for seating?
