I purchased a Venti iced Caramel Macchiato ($8.50 approx) and received the small size. When I brought this to the staff attention, she told me that the order and size was right and they had experienced a price increase and it was my error. I later went to another star buck (a better one, in the city) and purchased the same drink but an Grande and paid $6.50. This lead me to ask the staff member if the order was correct and she said yes, you’ve ordered a Grande Iced Caramel Macchiato.

I hope this issue can be addressed to prevent it from happening...
Read moreThe staff who takes my orders at Thursday 16th may morning was a Chinese boy who was not friendly at all! And he was ashamed of giving me correct instructions! i paid 20$ for a bad quality matcha coffee and avo sandwich breakfast! i asked them for large size coffee but they gave me V sized without asking me which was more expensive (8.5$) and he said we dont have any large size here while it was on menu! the quality of Matcha late was amazingly awful and sweet and the amount of used matcha was so much and strong that i couldn’t taste anything else rather than green tea! But Olivia treats me nicely and im happy with her service. Overall, I was really disappointed about my today’s visit at Starbucks castle...
