This Starbucks on the G/F of the K11 Art Mall has been around since near the opening of the mall nearly 15 years ago.

The other staff standing behind the disk were staring at us and gave us a weird stare as if we...
ย ย ย Read moreI really like this Starbucks locations, very close to k11. Also has a quiet ambient environment during mornings till early afternoon until it gets a bit crowded in the afternoon. Staff are overall nice. But there is one lady who is a bit upfront when ordering. Maybe she is trying to cater to customers needs. But does seem a bit aggressive when you are still trying to decide what to order. All other staff are super patient tho. Environment is quite clean. However the power plugs here are very messed up, super loose if u ever tried to plug a three...
