I ate a gluten free Turkey and Cranberry toastie.. I can tell you for a fact I had a reaction... Seeing how it was put in the oven its clear the worker did it without cross contamination. Whoever made it or the factory obviously f'ed up becuase the reaction wasnt even mild. Very disappointed as I had previously been sick, lost many work days over christmas season AND had to work thr same evening, I felt fine when I walked in and when walked out my vidion was blurry and my dyscalculia and memory became terrible... I had a very embarrading day at work... There is no one to complain to, I really dont think starbucks takes welfare seriously from all the media reports, of Ireland HSE rules on allergens... So I am speaking to you the public to think twice before concluding their product is gluten free. I was actually surprised in fact I didnt expect it, my reputation workingnas a chef now is damaged and I cannot tell them it was starbucks or that I have dyscalulia which affected how I percieved the numbers of food items at work which led to a grilling byba seniour coworkers for not knowing we had two! tubs of tomato sauce for hotplate canteen pasta. There was a number of other inconsistencies... I also dyspraxia.
I have gotten used to the fact that Ireland is not allergies friendly country and that I cannot have a normal life... Its a good thing I do not operate heavily plant or drive a car, I cant do those thing here perhaps anyway due to risk of...

The space is big and bright, with plenty of seating, which makes it a comfortable place to relax, meet a friend, or even do a bit of work. Unlike some other busy locations, it’s generally very clean and well maintained, and the staff seem to keep on top of things even during rush hours.
It does have that familiar Starbucks feel — you know what to expect, and for many people that’s reassuring. The coffee and food are consistent, and the atmosphere is usually calm despite the central location.
The downside, though, is the pricing. Like most Starbucks in Dublin, prices keep creeping up, and it’s hard not to notice. What used to feel like a small treat now feels a bit expensive for what it is. That said, you’re also paying for the space, the convenience, and the reliability of the brand.
Overall, it’s still a spot I enjoy. Whether it’s to grab a coffee on the go or sit down for a while, this Starbucks offers a pleasant environment in the heart of the city — I just wish the prices were a little...
Read moreI paid for hot chocolate, but they gave me water. When I told them they got my order wrong I got attacked by 2 of their staff members, I think their names were Kevin and Patricia. The Barista named Kevin proceeded to throw punches whereas the one named Patricia decided to drop kick the both of us while yelling “250kg super kick”. We ended up rolling over the table, all of a sudden the entire Starbucks team hopped over their counters and surrounded the two of us me and Kevin. The Barista Patricia did some Eastern European black magic and summoned a chimpanzee that went around manhandling the customers. The whole incident took over 1hr, in end the all my clothes got ripped and the barista named Kevin was for some reason hulk smashing on the ground while the barista named Patricia was beating up some old lady because she asked for a extra sugar. In the end I didn’t get my hot chocolate or the water because it...
