Starbucks

There are a lot of Starbucks in downtown, this one is easily my favorite. The location and layout make it very appealing and the staff is wonderful. My barista was Amanda and she was simply wonderful, very personable and quick to create my drink. The decor, music, and general aesthetic of this particular location really make it an ideal stop on my way to/from work.

Just wanted to leave a review for grade A customer service and helpful information provided. I ordered my usual drink but wanted to extra hot so I could enjoy it later, when I asked what was the hottest temperature my latte could be made at I was told 180. Just being curious I asked why that specific temperature and was informed that after that the machines burn the milk giving it a bad taste and it becomes a safety hazard for baristas since it bubbles out of the pitchers and can burn their hands. I thought that was so interesting and am thankful for the explanation, my drink stayed plenty hot and was delicious. I certainly wouldn’t continue trying to order a drink above that temperature hoping the person ringing me up is new and unaware and risk burning someone’s hands and having a poorly tasting drink, thankfully though I was reassured that even when drinks get rung up with such a high temp the baristas on bar know and will only make it to 180 and then let the register know for future ringing. Thanks guys! Keep up the great service and helpful education!
