    I go to a Starbucks almost every day and I also go to the Starbucks inside Target but tonight at the Orchard Gateway Blvd location inside Target I had the worst customer service experience of my life and because of this, I will not go back to Starbucks for a very long time! First off, I get the exact same drink every time and I am very specific on how to make my caramel ribbon crunch Frappuccino with extra crunches and tonight I paid almost $2 more than I usually do for my grande drink and I asked if the prices went up and the lady was extremely rude and said, "No you just haven't been charged for extra crunches before and I am charging you!"

    I was about to say never mind then but I just paid the extra then I got my drink and there were no extra crunchies in it so I asked them to remake it and that same lady said I saw the girl put extra in.... they dissolve. Why do they only dissolve this one time??!! Anyways, she threw a fit but remade it and just argued with me the entire time! I will not be going back to that Starbucks ever in my life again now!!! It's going to take me awhile to go back after the horrible experience I had!

    I was having a nice day and decided to get Starbucks for my boyfriend and myself and when I went to pick up my mobile order it was not ready yet. However I am ** patient and was just standing there as there was no one in store but was patient anyways. The girl who was making my sandwich was talking loudly to another employee about how annoyed she was to be making my sandwich while looking at me. Then she handed it to me and I told her I had a drink as well just so she would be aware. She then yelled at me saying that she works with the food. I understand that much but they are usually supposed to ask so I thought I’d tell her. Can’t believe how rude she was when I was simply just telling her.

    Then the girl making the drinks asked me what the name was. I replied and she then picked up the cup and said very aggressively “It’s right here. It will take 30 seconds.” She then kept making comments under her breath about me and I could hear them. She then slammed the drink down and didn’t say anything else. These employees were very rude to me and have ruined my day. It seems like a lot of other areas Starbucks customers feel the same way. This needs to stop, if they don’t want to work then they should just quit if they can’t be polite. It’s simple.

    It doesn't. Matter if it is trash from the milk company or not. They will put every single piece of trash they touch in the milk crates and send all their trash back to the milk company. THIS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN. But obviously everyone that works for this company are scummy behaved people. Plain and simple. Out of a stack of seven milk crates every single one of them will be crammed with trash that like I said didn't even come from out company. Just like all the food trash they also send back to us the milk company for absolutely no ** reason besides they are gross. I no longer get coffee from this place. I used to literally everyday.

    Although we’d made several purchases at a Starbucks the same day prior that completed, upon returning for a snack, while in a hospital Starbucks, the bank card mind you, it’s old and only sometimes states the chip did not read. Which is what the machine said, the baristas both snidely commented with people and myself able to hear that there was probably no money on the card. Which, although I dress pretty and expensive goth, is no excuse whether I looked not rich or not which I look well off. So I stated that it said chip not as very nicely and left nicely not angrily. But that was uncalled for. And I find it disgusting. It was in a hospital Starbucks in Winnipeg. I’ve been customer service before and I’m not disgusting like that no matter whom I am serving. I believe in respect. Pretty-goth or not. And btw I was presentable and respectful the whole time. I was shocked.

    I worked at Starbucks during college and thought it was a great experience. This was in the early 2000’s but consistently over the past couple of years the service has been uncomfortable. The staff have been incredibly rude, the wait times are outrageous and the product is nothing new or outstanding. I don’t need to go into specifics with each experience I have had recently but it is unfortunate that a company that started off so great has turned out so disappointing. The coffee, staff, and environment of local or specialty coffee shops has consistently created a place I would much rather spend my time and money. It’s unlikely anyone able to make a sweeping change at Starbucks a will read this and implement changes but I do hope so and maybe someday I’ll try Starbucks again but for now I’ll save myself a frustrating and disappointing situation and avoid this business.

    Starbucks near me just launched new fall foods and beverages yesterday. By noon yesterday they were out of all new items. The fall launch is huge and many people look forward to it all year. Maybe if you don’t have enough product to last even a couple of days, push back the launch until you do? I was so happy to get the email that it had come out that I left work on my break to brighten my day and so very disappointed to get there at 12:30pm and find out that it was all gone.

    I filed a BBB complaint last month because Starbucks canceled my Starbucks Reward cards. I couldn't remember the balances, so I guessed about $9. Starbucks played nothing but games and tried everything they could to avoid responding to the complaint. I received a couple of phone call messages asking me to contact them directly and discuss the matter. The number provided was the customer service number and when I spoke with one representative, Linda hung up the phone on me. I did not use my card since 2012 which is my prerogative. Because of this and other reasons, Starbucks decided to close my Starbucks account. I reopened one about a few weeks ago and added a new card that I have not used yet.

    When I called customer service and spoke to Joseph, he stated that the $8.10 card was deactivated because it was reported stolen. Joseph also seemed to have a problem with the small balance. I am not about to give a MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION any of my money no matter how much it is. Mind you, the card was always in my Apple wallet on my phone. So the only way to steal this Starbucks wallet card is to steal my phone. Which never happened. On my recent Starbucks complaint, customer service tried to say that my new card needs to be moved to my wallet and gave me directions on how to do it. In other words, they are implying that the new card with the 0 balance is what I am complaining about.

    Starbucks is still playing the same games they did on my first complaint. I strongly believe Starbucks steals Starbucks balances to make up for the lost money from the "so-called" Pandemic when their franchises were closed and many had to go out of business causing Starbucks to lose all kinds of money. I am quite sure I am not the only victim of Starbucks theft. I have attached some documents below on Pissed Off review.

    I would give Starbucks zero stars if I could. I received an email that I would be receiving a birthday reward on the day of my birthday and it would be good on the day of my birthday only. The email also stated that the reward would be for any drink or food item. I went to an Starbucks near my home. The cashier told me my coupon had expired. I told her I don't have a coupon. Its a birthday reward. I ordered a sandwich. The cashier said I could only purchase a drink. I showed her the email. She said, let's try it and swiped my card. She said it didn't take so she asked if I wanted a drink. I told her to just give me a venti hot coffee. She swiped my card again and said it didn't work. Then she asked, "Are you sure it's your birthday?" I showed her the email that said in big letters, 7/15. I told her this is July 15 and this is my birthday.

    By then I was getting really angry. I told her that was okay and I would phone customer service at Starbucks. She asked if I wanted to make a purchase. I thought why would I want to make a purchase? I went home and called customer service. The rep told me that I could use my birthday reward only once. I told her I knew that but I did not use my reward. She said again, YOU-CAN-ONLY-USE-IT-ONCE. I told her, I DID NOT USE MY REWARD. The rep said it showed on my account that I used the birthday reward. I asked was that about 15 minutes ago? She said yes. I explained what happened at the store and that the cashier swiped my card 2x. The rep said she would put a coupon on my account and I have 24 hours to use it. She said 2x, "I am doing this only this one time." I told her, to hold on, because the way she was speaking to me, it seemed as though it was my fault. It was Starbucks error, not mine.

    I just went online and there was no coupon and my account now showed that I used my birthday reward 3 times on July 16. It is NOT JULY 16, IT IS STILL THE 15TH. I give up!!! I am not going to even bother to turn in my reward tomorrow. It's not worth the irritation. What a rip off!!! After I use up the balance on my card, I am not going to Starbucks.

    My mother sent me a $15 gift card purchased from Walgreens in June. She came to visit me this past weekend and brought the Gift card receipts. I contacted Walgreens to replace the cards. I was told to contact the Merchant (Starbucks). I called Starbucks and spoke with a representative today, explained my problem. He asked for the card number. When I provided it, he transferred me to a different department that handles these issues. I got another representative. I told this representative why I was transferred over. She got silent and ended the call. It is like no one wants to handle issues or do their job.

    Customer Service is at its all time low. It’s obnoxious! I wouldn’t dare treat one of my patients any such way no matter how dissatisfied I may become with the job. I held for a representative the first call-in and the call got dropped. I don’t understand how. I didn’t call back a third time because I spent about four hours today trying to resolve these issues. At least three hours were spent with Vanilla on hold most of the time. The most pathetic customer service. I am going to call their Corporate Headquarters tomorrow and attempt to speak with Customer relations or someone above.

Upon departing property, I realized that the steaming wand was never wiped down. I returned home and contacted Starbucks via email to leave a complaint. I was contacted back and was informed that I would be receiving a full refund for the purchase. On 02/04/2023, I received the gift card through Mail. Looked to see how much was refund and showed, 10 cents. Due to the lack customer service, I will be taking my business elsewhere.

    Got to Starbucks inside Food City before 6 pm. Asked for a large decaf. I was told they could only do a half caf. Very disappointed in their logistics function. A viable business should have its ordering of supplies rather optimized by the time they are a mature business.

    I know a lot of people line up for this stuff but the coffee is not that good. I guess that's why they put in so many flavorings and sweeteners. If you like just coffee, try somewhere else. Many to choose from. I won't name them here. This is not an advertisement.

    I have had enough of this companies deceitful ways. A 16oz Grande and 24 oz Vente both have 2 shots of espresso. All you are paying for is more milk which weakens the taste. Logically if a grande has 2 shots then a vente should have 3. The shots have already been reduced in size over the years. Secondly Tips are based on performance...to ask us to tip before we can even finish cashing out is no right. You are pressuring us to leave a tip before we even get our coffee. What if the service stinks? I think you should go back to using a tip jar that way if the service is good we can tip and if not we can leave. I am only one person but you have lost me as a customer and I will do whatever I can to spread the word.

    You don't care about your customers enough in my opinion and the only way to prove otherwise is to make the changes that need to be made. You can start with the 2 complaints I raise. If I'm going to pay almost 10 dollars for a vente latte I would like for it to have 3 shots rather than 2 like the grande. Otherwise I would just order a grande. I will be doing this same review on Google and posting it on all my social media.

    Yet another person with a Horrible Experience at a Starbucks... Specifically, the Starbucks at Johnson Creek Crossing in Portland, Oregon. I was trying to give my order at the drive-thru, but apparently the person who was taking it couldn't hear me very well. A short, decaf vanilla mocha non-fat no-whip. Still, she had every thing right but the vanilla, so when she asked me if it was right, I said "Everything but the vanilla." She said she was having trouble hearing me, so I said loudly "Va-nil-la!" She said she was still having trouble hearing me, and for some unknown reason changed the drink to a grande vanilla latte, so I said loudly "Moch-a!" and then asked her why she changed the drink/size? She said she more about not being able to hear me, so in a very loud voice I said "SHORT... DECAF... VANILLA... MOCHA.. NONFAT... NO WHIP" At which point she said I was treating her badly and refused to take my order.

    After some pointless back and forth I asked for the manager. She claimed she was the manager. I asked for the contact information for her supervisor. She insisted that I come up to the window, and after waiting for other customers, I did, and she gave me the business card for her supervisor. I asked for her name, which she refused to give me because I was being "too aggressive". She also claimed that the name on her apron was not really hers. I asked for a way to identify her with the supervisor and she would only give me three digits from her employee number.

    Suffice to say, after telling me multiple times she couldn't hear me and then, in a clearly passive aggressive manner, refusing to take my order when I tried saying it loudly enough so that she could hear me, I find it hard to imagine ever wanting to put myself through this again. It's a shame - after 30 years of patronage, I think I'm done with Starbucks over-priced drinks and childish staff. It's not the first time I've experienced immature Starbucks staff, but it will be the last.

    Miserable customer service, executive department and website/apps. We have a Starbucks account where our payment method is linked to our account so we may earn stars for rewards. The Starbucks Cafe we go to is in a Market32/Price Chopper grocery store. Previously, every now and then purchase history shows with the $ amount, but no stars, shows as 0.0 earned. Then this started happening on a frequent basis. Called customer service, most speak English with a very broken accent. Explained the issue.

    We were told they stars are being added after the fact, even though they do not show in the history of the app & web page portal, the stars are still being added as they can see this on their end and to just "Trust Them". I don't trust them, the site should reflect the added stars/adjustment after the system adjustment in history. Each and every time we call them about the problem, there is an endless computer voice prompts from hell, then you need to jump through hoops to get to a live person, prior you need to enter your gift card #, the pin, then the person on the phone will ask you the same info. Waste of time. Also read plenty about accusations about Starbucks Union Busting Efforts, but denying it all. Another Woke, Go Broke Company.

    I frequent this particular Starbucks about 5 times a week. This is the Edgemont Branch location. My usual drink is grande in venti cup, extra milk. Most of the employees know my face and some know my name as I go there quite often. Today I went to get my usual drink. I know exactly how much coffee and how much milk goes into the cup. The coffee level is at the edge of the circle on the cup. So when I saw the amount of coffee was less than usual and had too much room, I pointed it to the employee. She then proceeded to go to the back to talk to someone else, then came back with a measured cup and said we can't do that and talked to me in a way that really ruined the experience for me as she was making a fuss over nothing.

    There was another employee who knew me and witnessed the whole interaction. I was disappointed at her reaction and couldn't believe that such a simple request from a regular customer led up to this kind of reaction. I got home and to prove to myself that I was right, I measured 16 oz of water and put it in the venti cup I had and what do you know... I was right. The amount should have been what I said all along. But my point is not even the amount of coffee, but her interaction and the way she responded to me that left a very bad taste in my mouth. We have 3 other wonderful coffee shops next to this Starbucks. I will not be going back to Starbucks.

Well you tell her I'm not going anywhere so maybe she could do her job and fix my coffee correctly. If she can't do that maybe she should go and get a job at the coffee bean.

    She said something to me that I don't understand and if anyone could explain what it means please call me at ** and tell me what it means. (My regular customers don't like when people come in everyday, so they complain to me about you.) What the heck does that mean.

    A Place to Be. The space I chose was Starbucks. Never in my life would I have imagined that I would be interested in writing a paper about this. I am currently traveling and it has been a place that I have been frequently visiting to sit down and take care of my studies. I am an avid coffee drinker also and love to sip on a beverage and take care of what I need to take care of. It is peaceful, although sometimes chaotic. I enjoy being able to sit down and do my work. I believe it is a great place for students like myself to sit down and be productive.

    Here is why I think it is a great place to study, it has good coffee; caffeine helps me adjust to the workload and I become more attentive. The smells of the shop awaken my spirit as soon as I walk in. The music is always positive and uplifting, ranging from soul to jazz and up to more modern musical artists. I feel like it is a great place to sit down for a while and get things accomplished. There is an atmosphere at Starbucks that is recognizable to most people. I have relied on going there to focus.

    The place provides seating and free Wi-Fi connection to easily get started on the tasks. I also can sit down and charge my accessories to keep things going. I can sit and remain undisturbed for the duration of my visit. If I decide to use the restroom, it's always clean and serviced regularly. If I decide I need more coffee It's right here in front of me. Sometimes after completing my work and studies, I decided to grab a nice hot beverage for the road. They always offer new and tasty drinks. I am sure there is something for almost anybody.

    I love the atmosphere here; it's always pleasant even when it is operating at a high volume. I feel like I can be myself and focus on exactly what I need to focus on. I don't ever feel like a nuisance. I enjoy witnessing the smiles of the staff and people coming through momentarily. I enjoy the space that is here because I get to sit and watch the community doing what they do. I like seeing other customers taking advantage of the space and being productive also. I enjoy completing my work and going home afterward. It is a great place to meet and have conversations with friends, family, and just about anyone. I have done one-on-one 12-step work with fellow people in recovery. It is a hub for networking.

    I highly recommend any person to try out and take advantage of the space and sit and stay awhile. I have been able to accomplish a lot of work, not just school studies. I love coming in to get my favorite beverage, but I also love being extra productive. It is surely a space that will not disappoint anyone. I think it is a place to be because it offers freedom of individuality and expression. To me, it is a place to be human and myself.

The employees are friendly and kind. This goes for other locations that I visit. Unfortunately, the quality of Starbucks products has significantly declined and the prices have skyrocketed but that is understandable given the current economy. Every time I get a chai tea latte, it either tastes like water or nothing but milk, and on top of that, I am paying a premium for the venti size.

    This is like this at every store I have visited and tried the drinks. Nobody should be paying for a diluted product at a premium price. Even if there are supply shortages that don't mean that it's okay to overcharge people for a bad product. It ruins the whole experience and enjoyment of the products that they sell.

    Starbucks is supposed to be a quality brand and we love Starbucks coffee. Recently their centres have started cutting cost by not providing paper bags when we purchase a product from Starbucks. We regularly buy coffee beans worth $20 from Starbucks and when we ask for a bag they have started providing excuses like "We have run out of bags." Their products are so expensive but they cannot provide a paper bag to even carry the purchased product. In USA, WEGMANS store provides huge strong paper bags for even the smallest purchase made. Sad to see the way cost cutting is taking a toll on customer experience.

    I came back to Oklahoma City due to a business meeting and to visit my family. While visiting a Starbucks location in Oklahoma City, OK at 200 S Oklahoma City, OK 73104, I was threatened verbally as well as physically by an employee. I am a long-time daily customer of Starbucks. I would say I visit a location at least 335 days out of 365 per year. On the morning of April 5th, 2022, I went in to purchase my usual daily cup of coffee. I decided to purchase a protein box and a cheese and fruit box as well. While waiting in a fairly long line I arrived at the counter in which I were greeted by a young lady named **. My order was placed for a venti sized blonde roast of brewed coffee, including eight packages of agave, sugar free vanilla, cream and the two boxes discussed above.

    After placing my order, ** continued to help five other people, pouring brewed coffee for a couple of them and sending the orders for the rest of them over to the line being worked by ** and **. I noticed everyone waiting for their coffee before I ordered as well as everyone in line after, leaving with their coffee. I noticed a guy working with the hot food items and asked him who the manager was due to my wait as well as my concern for my coffee. He stated he was the manager. Later identified as **. I went on to explain the service I was receiving whereas he directed ** to make my coffee.

    ** and ** began stating the coffee was previously made and my name was called going back and forth with the manager stating another customer walked away with it. The statements were simply not true. My name was never called, and my order was never made. As I stated above, I am a daily customer. I order the same exact coffee every day visiting my home location as well as many other locations while traveling. When placing a brewed coffee order the representative taking the order usually prepares the coffee order. ** neglected to do so while preparing all other brewed coffee orders before and after me, as customers placed their order. ** did not like my asking for a manager and became very aggressively abusive behind the line.

    I asked the manager for her name which he stated was something different than **. I knew at that time I was going to be reaching out to the corporate office due to **’s behavior. I did not have a complaint regarding either of the other representatives **, **, and ** whereas I do understand Starbucks can get busy and things can be forgotten. While being so flustered regarding **’s behavior and the disbelief regarding how the manager on duty ** oversaw my complaint, I began to walk out while shockingly, **, ** and ** began waving at me smiling yelling for me to have a good day.

    This area of the whole ordeal deemed to be completely antagonizing. While arriving at my destination I noticed I did not have my food items and drove back to Starbucks. I walked in and spoke to everyone whereas **, **, **, and ** were all looking at me as if they were surprised, I returned. I walked to the register advising **, I left my order. She than stated in front of everyone including other customers she saw me walk out with my bag. I explained to her I did not have my bag when I left, and she said she was positive I did. ** stated this fact at the least four to five times. Again, I stood completely shocked an employee would be allowed to state to a customer they were lying about leaving their order. Instead of treating me as a customer she treated me as I were a criminal.

    I looked over at the table I originally stood by while waiting for my coffee and noticed my bag sitting on the table. After retrieving my bag, I asked for ** if I could speak with him in private regarding the treatment as well as the behavior of his staff. He refused to speak with me in private. I asked him for the name of the cashier which he gave to me. This gesture upset ** even more where she began to state rude gestures walking over to me pointing at her badge stating I pronounced her name incorrectly and then began to walk as if she were going to charge at me physically stating “people like you is why I am moving out of this country”. ** then began to physically hold her back from attacking me while walking her to the back of the store.

    ** yelled out be sure to tell Corporate my name is **. I walked in to get a bag of food I purchased and left due to the behavior of the staff at this location and was verbally and physically threatened being spoken to with blatant disrespect as a customer as well as a person. My goal was to contact Starbucks customer service regarding the actions of staff as well as the discrimination I received from **, “stating you people are the reason I am leaving the country.” I have had a couple of bad experiences when it comes to service from Starbucks however this one was the worst.

    ** threated me with physical and bodily harm while working at Starbucks. I should have called 911 due to the severity of the threat. ** was extremely aggressive, and management did not oversee the situation properly whereas if he would have it would have never escalated to such violence. I will need someone to contact me regarding this. I contacted customer service regarding this. I will need these actions as well as behavior addressed as soon as possible as well as a return phone call.

    The location where I go the employees are great and they always seems to make my drink right so no complaints there. The complaint is just the price increase, at this time it is unnecessary since you can not distribute the products and keep single locations in stock ever. It is a toss up if what you want will be available that day or not. You can get product off line and make it for way cheaper at home. With the break down you can make a Frappuccino that taste similar for $3.60 with top ingredients from home where when you go to Starbucks the same thing would cost around $7 to $7.25.

    (1) Vt Car Br Frap

    (2) Vt Chai Tea Latte

    We then proceeded to wait for more than 20 minutes to be served. During this time, another patron entered the store, placed an order, and was served before us, as we waited. In addition, five customers were served in the drive-thru. While trying not to make any assumptions, all of the people served before us were **, while we were the only customers of color.

    If this was the case, your store, as well as your organization as a whole should be ashamed of your staff's actions! I am hoping that you take action with your staff, so that other patrons do not have the experience that we had as a guest in your establishment. Somehow, this behavior has become acceptable, while allowing people of color to feel humiliated, and unwelcome to participate in supporting your business.

There was never a question why I'm canceling the card because obviously, I was upset.

    The bottom line, in my opinion, is that Starbucks is a money-hungry business that cares nothing about their customers. I would have thought they would have made an exception for their lousy, "free drink". I've been a customer who regularly buys Starbucks at their stores or their affiliates, like Target or the grocery stores. It's not the free drink that bothered me as much as their, "I don't care attitude". They lost more from me than their free drink Birthday promotion, because I won't purchase from them ever again. I'm surprised they care so little about their customers. There's no loyalty at all, because a company policy, is a company policy that's not to be broken and... NO EXCEPTIONS!

    I have been a loyal SB Gold Card member for more than 10 years. Each day I buy 2 beverages, and on occasion, food or snack items. On a recent trip to a location in Florida, I ordered a hot coffee and other items. When I picked up the coffee from my car cup holder, the sides of the cup pushed in causing the lid to pop off and the coffee to spill on the center console of my car. Right on top of the technology ball that controls my radio, XM, NAV, cell, and internal features of the car.

    This is not the first time this has occurred. This is caused by the employee grabbing the cup and creasing the top pushing their fingers together and creating a crimp in the ridge. The crimp causes the lid to not properly seat on the top ridge of the cup causing it to pop off when you grab the cup toward the top of the outside about 4-6 inches from the top. SB has determined because the coffee was in my car at the time it spilled, they are taking no responsibility. WTF? I have decided based on the negative response I received from Starbucks Customer Service, I will no longer step foot in a store again, buy any of their products, or retain their stock going forward.

    Starbucks rewards program is a total joke. I have been a loyal customer for years. Lately I’ve found out that the offers they send out to customers for bonus stars are really a slap in the face to regular customers and favor the rare or occasional customers. I received an offer to receive 50 bonus stars for six consecutive days of purchases while my daughter who rarely uses Starbucks received the same offer but for 100 bonus stars for six consecutive days of purchases. To me this says “we can take advantage of you because you are loyal and we will try to lure in the ones who aren’t loyal by giving them a better deal”. All I can say is I feel a real craving for Dunkin' coming on. Starbucks doesn’t deserve my money or my loyalty.

    I always bought hot tea in Riverdale Target Starbucks. Today November 30 2020 I asked the woman who was making tea do not touch the hole on the cover of glass your hand, because covid. The woman did not listen me and touched her hand the hole of the cover a glass and else she poured the teatime the brim of the glass. I said, "Give me a cover, I'll make it myself," she gave it.

    When I closed the glass, I inadvertently scalded my hand, hot tea poured out on my wrist, because it was so uncomfortable do it, there was glass to protect worker against Covid. She didn't even give me a napkin. She began to quickly wipe the table, where the tea had poured out, she absolutely did not care what was with my hand, I say call the manager it hurts until she wiped the table, she didn’t call, the manager said that they did not accept complaints in writing. I was waiting the ice for my hand around 10 minutes. The manager and of course she was indifferent. My question is why they work with money and after this they don’t wash hands and go to do coffee straight. And second question who will answer that I burned myself the hot tea. I have the pictures. Never come back to Starbucks.

    On, November 21, 2020 my friend ordered a Venti dark black coffee. As The area became crowded coffee he was obligated to keep a 2 meter distance to accommodate to COVID-19 restrictions. So after 20 to 25 minutes He finished the coffee and went back for a refill. Their staff refused him a refill. ** the supervisor in charge at 4341 International Village Vancouver BC Starbucks location claimed the manager ended free refills for customers. My friend gradually related to her and stated The Starbucks refill policy and showed her the policy on his phone. Yet she ignorantly turned her back and shouted at my friend “my manager said to not give refills”. My friend patiently said, "I would like to see that in writing." ** refused and treated me disrespectfully, stating that it’s because of her manager **.

    My friend was merciful to her for her non sense of breaking Starbucks franchise policy, reminded her of the policy and showed her the policy off the Internet. She then became aggressive threatening to call security. Therefore I said, "How about you just write down a reference number on your manager's card and your name." ** refused. She was very disrespectful! Now I must sacrifice time to remove disrespectful people from my environment. Now My friend will have be compensated for the refill that He purchased, and receive favour from the franchise representative to get compensation for our loss of time and suffering, enduring harassment from Starbucks employee **.

There was just a hint of coffee flavor and very little caramel. McDonalds has a much better frappe and half the price! Starbucks is laughing all the way to the bank!

I decided to travel overseas and walked into a Starbucks in Bangkok and presented my card for payment. It was not accepted!!! Starbucks cards are ONLY good in the country they are issued in! Imagine if American Express or Visa or Mastercard ran their business like that! As I can't return to the US because of the COVID pandemic, I essentially was scammed by Starbucks!

    Starbucks does not know the difference between latte and cappuccino. I just ordered a triple venti "dry" cappuccino. I should not have to specify dry but I was told once that it would ensure that my cappuccino was made with foam instead of milk. Even that doesn't help. My drink today weighed about 5 lbs from all the milk in it. I couldn't even taste the espresso, it was like drinking a big cup of warm milk. I could drink this at bedtime and sleep very well. Go back to espresso school, it's not rocket science.

    My favorite Starbucks items are frappuccinos. Even though Starbucks prices are high, a frappuccino made correctly is worth it to me. Unfortunately, their consistency has been all over the map. I have had frappuccinos that were as thin as water. Some were the wrong flavor or the wrong size. Some did not resemble frappuccinos at all and who knows what was actually in them. The one I had today was like that and this is what prompted me to finally write a review to vent about it.

    Okay, the world has far worse problems to worry about than weird frappuccinos. But still, it shouldn't be too much to ask that the quality of Starbucks offerings have more consistency to them. Perhaps better training and screening of your baristas? The "frappuccino" I had today was mostly foam with apparently a heavy overdose of caffeine. It had a strong burnt taste and was the first one that ever gave me an upset stomach followed by a dizzy headache. (?) Fortunately, I didn't try to finish it. Come on, Starbucks. Get your act together as far as consistent quality is concerned.

    Starbucks has lowered their standards in cleanliness, presentation and morals. I have gone from one location to the other trying to order without there being any issues in the last 2 weeks. I have put in 5 complaints from 3 different locations. Complaints that stem from wiping my drink off with a dirty rag, leaving hair on my cup, taking my drink back from a customer's hand that was taken into his vehicle while I sit in my car behind him and once at the window was offered the same drink, to making my drink incorrectly and instead of remaking it the employee tries fixing it by adding ingredients through the top of the plastic top.

    All of these incidents were back to back within 2 weeks. That’s way too many. Starbucks needs to consider setting up secret shoppers so they can really see what is going on. We are in the midst of a pandemic. I don’t understand why a drink was even allowed to leave a customers hand and bought back through the window let alone that same drink given to another customer. I refused with resistance from the employee because she felt there was nothing wrong with the drink. Never mind being unsafe and unsanitary.
