Starbucks

Starbucks is the only constant really… it’s good, it’s tasty… I’m just afraid they’re falling too far from they’re roots. I mean things like asking for a straw… when I’ve already paid to enjoy a beverage… I read somewhere that Starbucks is closing restrooms… just think of it now “we’re gonna sell you drinks but you can’t pee here!” Come on Starbucks you can do way better.

The Starbucks at the corner of 14th and High st. is a perfect location for Ohio State students. I go to this location all the time and the wait time for mobile orders is so fast. With that being said there are some parts of the store that are not very accessible. The two doors to get into the store are not automatic making difficult for a person using a wheel chair to enter. Additionally because it does get so busy there is not much room for mobility in the small space. Finally there is only street parking in front and on the side of the store with a few handicap spots making it not super accessible. There is no need for a ramp because it is a level entrance to the side walk which is very nice. Overall I really love this location and how convenient it is for OSU students! However some improvements on accessibility could be made!

I was happy to hear Starbucks added food to their menu! Prior you stopped to get a fantastic cup of coffee but we're forced to get a sandwich somewhere else?? Now you provide one stop shopping!!! To be more specific...Breakfast sandwich...because you have always had foods. I hope it has paid off and will continue into the future!!!

Overall the Starbucks on high street is accessible however there is still a few things that could be improved. For example the double doors to enter the Starbucks aren’t very accessible for a wheel chair and the construction across the street doesn’t help either. On the contrary, the inside is big enough to maneuver a wheel chair, there are high and low tables, there are two accessible bathrooms and there are also braille menus. The service at Starbucks is also really good and I know that there are trainings that have to be done on accessibility for both the workers and customers. Lastly the outside patio is very accessible and leads directly into the Starbucks.
