AARON must be an angel. I asked him so many questions about "Been There" series tumblers and Pike Place Special Reserve for probably close to 10 minutes and he was so professional and delightful to talk to.
While everyone was nice I was especially lucky to interact with Aaron. Aaron makes you feel welcomed and special; Thank you so much. Aaron made it was totally worth the wait during a rainy & windy weather!
In addition, try a cup of Pike Place Special Reserve because it's only sold in 2 stores. It's more rich, bold, robust, and smooth than the regular Pike Place Medium Roast we've seen at other Starbucks stores. If you appreciate a good cup of coffee, you'll be glad you tried.
At 3:30 the line was super long but when I came back, after strolling through the Pike Place market for an hour, the line had gotten significantly shorter! Whew!
I'm so disappointed that the "Been There" series mug cup have been sold out for several months. But I'm glad I got the "Been There" tumbler!
Thank you to AARON again for making my first visit a special, memorable experience that I'll never forget!
Super cool experience to get to see the FIRST (in reality “second”- the first one burned down), Starbucks location. I recommend getting there early, otherwise, there’s always a long line. We got there pretty late in the afternoon so we had to wait about 30 minutes to get inside. The store itself is really small and is set up to order coffee, and purchase merchandise and leave. There is no tables, no way of “staying” awhile, and no food for purchase. But it was still special and the staff was really sweet ! A must stop !
This is the first ever Starbucks location. It all started here! I know the wait could be very long but it is definitely worth the visit here. The staff are friendly and the drinks were pretty good. You can also get Starbucks memorabilia and drinks exclusive to this location. There is no place to sit down unfortunately so you have to enjoy your drink outside. Definitely recommend!
Finally made it to the original location of Starbucks .. quite the little store with a large line outside. We lucked out with only a 10 minute wait. Waits can be up to 40 minutes. Once inside service was quick and extremely friendly. Staff seemed to enjoy working at this location. Limited branded merchandise was remaining with the original Starbucks logo.
Highly recommended if you want to do touristy things in Seattle 😍 we visited late in the evening around 7pm. Small queue with 10 ppl. Staffs are super friendly, smiling and welcoming with kindness. Young people working here when we visited. Loved the coffee and the hot chocolate. Great spot for coffee lovers and Starbucks fans 😉
Must see! There was a big queue and too almost 20 mins to just get in. It’s a small store, and doesn’t serve all items. Just few of the coffee options. Very small, so can’t really stay in long. Staff will be serving some of the seasonal coffee to try. Merchandise to purchase.
This place always has a huge line! They sell Starbucks toy, coffee mugs and so on, also signature drinks.
The coffee taste exact like other Starbucks coffee shops, I didn’t find unique signature coffee. I was kind of expecting more, but it is like other Starbucks but old one.
If you have time I would recommend visit it, if you don’t have time, you don’t lose anything.
There is always a long queue here and I don't understand why. Yes it's the first and the original Starbucks but they don't sell anything different or unique here. If you just need to take a picture of the original Starbucks store sign just politely tell the store attendant and you will save yourself at least 30minutes of waiting.
The original Starbucks! Yes the first ever Starbucks in the world established in 1912. Known for its history and had a huge queue, had the same menu as everywhere else, the hype was all about it being the first ever in the world. Friendly staffs, enjoyed my visit here! Nice merchs available too!
Great experience. Very big line all the time. I wait in line approximately 30 min. Definitely worth it for wait. Menu is totally different than regular Starbucks. If you around this place definitely recommend.
