Starbucks

Traffic has been awful do I left early to pick up my granddaughters from school. I had 90 minutes to kill so I ordered some tea. When I went up to the register to get a refill the male clerk who had not helped me before said I could only get a refill if I hadn't left the store since the first order. I told him I hadn't and knew the policy, he still didn't believe I hadn't left the store until I asked another employee to verify I was sitting at a table the whole time. I've been a faithful Starbucks customer for many years, and should never have been treated like I was stealing a cup of tea.

Drinks. Drinks. Sweet, tart, iced, hot. Sometimes I get one, sometimes another. No matter what, the baristas there are happy to help. Get it to go I do but I see others take a seat and chill a few, alone or with company. It's a stop designed to please. Located on Hayden Island, a drive through is available if you want. Me, I usually prefer the inside experience. Parking lot is small and tricky to navigate. Mustn't be in a hurry to visit this one. It's tucked into a corner that once had a Denny's which has moved to where a Newport Bay restaurant once was. I liked the vibes and prompt service. I'll be back. And, so I was. This time meeting a friend. Nice new tables and chairs with new arrangement.
