Unenthusiastic staff. We were here as a quick drink stop before heading to Central Park. The girl who served me sounded like it was the worst day of her life. Her monotone voice put me off, especially as a tourist. She took my order, which was a Venti Very Berry Hibiscus and Tall ice water, almost grudgingly. I had initially asked for a Venti ice water, but she gave this lame excuse for not being able to provide it. If I'm paying $5 for another drink, what is the harm of using a Venti cup for the water? Our drinks took too long for something so simple and plus they weren't even busy. Perhaps one of the worst Starbucks I've ever been to. Pro-tip: If you're heading to Central Park, just grab a $2 drink from any of the dozen of vendors at or around the park. It's cheaper and faster and you don't have to put up with staff found at this place.
Unfortunately, this is the closest Starbucks by my job. Unfortunately, I'm almost always late for work when I stop at this Starbucks. Unfortunately, my tardiness to work is never my fault. This Starbucks takes FORRRREEEVVVVEERRR! I understand there's a morning rush, but geesh! I treat myself to Starbucks about once a week or so and I HATE knowing I have to come to this one. Don't get me wrong. The staff is super nice and it seems like they are really trying to keep it together, buttttttt something isn't working back there.

The setup here is not great. There's a tiny space to squeeze through between where you order and pick up.
I like the one on the corner of 54th & Broadway better.
Having said that, last time I was here the service was fast and friendly.
