It has a restroom, seating and outlets so that's worth like two stars. But the service and weirdly, the product is definitely one star. Miley, what's good with this place? Why is everyone so grumpy? I witnessed one employee reprimanding a customer saying, "the restroom is for customers ONLY!" She replied that she would buy something after she went used the restroom. Like come on.
Also, they're super cheap with the refills and give you the third degree. I guess they have to be strict because they're close to GCT. Good to know that there's a restroom and outlets here if you're in the area and need to work or kill time.
I think a new crew has come through here. So the location went from meh to ugh. It's connected to the building I work in. An absolute madhouse in here during the morning rush (beginning at around 8:50am). They used to be more efficient in taking drink orders while people were still lined up, but now, the staff seem to feel no urgency in trying to reduce the line. I also get my drinks EXTRA hot – I specifically requested it EACH time and I've gotten WARM drinks EVERY time. A very simple request that no longer can be fulfilled by the new sub par crew. I also need to start giving out a generic name because every single damn time, they will mess up my name and a dude will try to take my drink. Doing a half-assed job is NOT okay – we all need a pick me up in the morning and you're screwing it up for us.
I know it's Starbucks so it's like, hey what do you expect, but this is honestly the worst one I've walked in to. I've gone in on two separate occasions and will never again. If you go, prepare to be ignored while the staff talks to each other, be prepared for your order to get screwed up, and be prepared to be given the look of death and major attitude when you ask them to fix it.
Ok, so there's usually not much to say about a Starbucks. I mean… It's Starbucks, you know what you're getting. But something about this place… Not sure if it was how clean and organized and spacious it was, or just how downright nice every single employee seemed to be. I'm talking eye contact, a smile, a "how are you" that almost convinced me they cared.
*Despite the location and early morning crowds, they almost never mess up on my order. *If the line is at the end of the counter, it's not bad. If it curls around the entrance, I usually give in to the coffee machine at work. *The one time that they really messed up on my order, I called from my office and they had a new drink ready by the time I got there. *My old usual Starbucks is nearby… and they were somewhat nasty. The people here are super nice!
Props for a Starbucks of this size in tourist central to be able to serve with a smile.
The only thing that annoys me is occasionally there are groups of young office workers who like to stand and talk near the cashiers/pickup area – the area is tight enough with space – if you got your drink, move on!
It's a large Starbucks with plenty of seating. I came across this location because some buses pick up right around here. The service was fast and friendly. The coffee and breakfast sandwiches were standard. The egg and cheese sandwich was $3 and came hot. I love the convenience.
Located on Lexington ave and 43rd street, this place attracts many people. Even though I see a long line at this Starbucks, it goes fast. No complaints there.
The staff know what they are doing and provide quick service: Something I like. I find the staff pleasant. This makes going to this Starbucks location easier and better.
Better yet this location sets right next to the train station, near a Foot Locker, and near a CVS. Talk about easy shopping! Across the street you find a Citibank and a Wells Fargo bank. Can it get better than that?
This isn't one of the best Starbucks I've been to, but it is extremely convenient because it's attached to my office building. So during the day I don't really have much of a choice. It's a very large location and it's in a very central area being in one of the most popular work neighborhoods in Manhattan.
The drinks here are very inconsistent. Sometimes they'll be great and other times they'll just be ok. The line is always so long even if it isn't peak hours. The workers are friendly! The best solution for this location would be to hire more help. If they had more employees here, I believe that would solve a majority of the issues. I go here by default, but would rather visit a Starbucks that offers consistent drinks and a less hectic environment.

Bravo!
