Totally agree with everyone that they need to work on space for seating, but I had a really wonderful experience today:
I placed my to go order at the wrong place and they were so kind to make the order with them instead of me heading all the way to the other side of Astoria.
Which made me happy as
Went on one of my mystery book shopping excursions, I landed on ditmars Ave. Haven't been near this street since pre-HS. Did not know elevated train runs on this part of the ave. Plenty of shops, an Orange Theory??? Met my partners at Starbucks and it was buzzing. Met several peeps going to Go Fest.
Great experience and very friendly staff. Plenty of tables to sit but they get taken early and different times of the day, so use google “busy times” feature to check. Upstairs area for group studying, but they are stool without backs so may hurt your back after a whole.
The place like usual is very good, the people are very nice, but sometimes when is busy you need to wait a lot becouse not enough staff offers service. But is good.
Such a fresh upgrade from an old cramped location on Ditmars!
If you avoid rush hours this location is pretty nice and brand new :)
I was pleasantly greeted by Sami before ordering my holiday drinks. I had an issue with one of my gift cards and Sami was very helpful in directing me to the correct channels to resolve my issue. I definitely recommend coming to this Starbucks compared to other ones in the area.
I'm not a frequent Starbucks goer but when I'm craving a peppermint mocha, I stop in. Always friendly people making the drinks. I don't sit inside at all so can't speak on that.
They've been doing much better. Depends what time you visit and who prepares your order.
Lupita is the best barista. She always makes my drinks PERFECTLY. The one time I ordered and she wasn’t there and it was like it wasn’t even the same drink. I will only order if she is there. Her drinks are to die for.
Chai Tea latte is too sweet for me
Always seem to be quite busy but the staff are generally very polite and quick. I personally never had a problem with this place. Coffee drinks are made quickly and accurately with a smile to go! Thanks Starbucks!
