This was by far my best Starbucks experience.
Background: driving across the city from east to west with a small window of opp to see my cousin for the last time before they fly back early morning out of country.
Quick hands free call to them to see what I can pick up to eat or drink while on the road.
Their ask: some complicated Starbucks fruity contraption. They had to msg me the vernacular. Hands free!
Google maps co pilot says the closest Starbucks might be closed by the time I get off the highway. No problem! Got this.
Arrived with one minute to spare and no speed limits were offended.
Luckily the door was still ajar. Final cleaning was still underway. They let me in. Partly b/c of my charm. But mostly b/c of the panicked look of desperation.
Fumbled (butchered) the name of the drink. Quickly explained the situation, and the SB team collectively figured out what my cousin was most likely asking for.
They were unbelievably sweet, warm, fun ... and they were right! Even adding a few things that were not mentioned.
They also threw in a complimentary end of night brownie which my family also enjoyed!
Thanks SB crew. You...

I told the barista that I hope I order it correctly this time because yesterday when I ordered it (from another location), I received a totally different drink and was a bit disappointed. She reassured me that she’ll make the drink correctly for me. Used the washroom and when I returned, she called me over to say my drink was ready. I mentioned that I haven’t paid for my drink yet but she said, “Don’t worry, it’s no charge” What a sweet gesture! I didn’t catch her name but she was on duty around 2:30-2:45pm. Thank you so much! P.S. The drink...
Read moreLet me tell you about Jackie and her amazing team! Every time I visit this location which is quite often, it's like arriving home after a long hard day.....bliss! Everyone here goes over and above to give you the best possible experience. They are consistent with your orders and always on point. I had not been to this location since June due to a family emergency, but when I walked in the welcome and treatment I received, brought tears to my eyes....it's been a very hard few months.
Thank you so much for always making my day, but especially today! Best Starbucks...
