Starbucks Vega Arcade UPLB

this is so far the lousiest starbucks branch when it comes to coffee quality. they cosistently serve coffee with an ash flavor (could be from dirty machine or portafilter). the staff are not astute - i asked for a short double latte, i dont think the cashier knew that double meant two shots, she punched in one shot; also, another time i asked how many shots for a short flatwhite and was told it was one shot when starbucks standard is two shots. i was also served a latte that was watery. seems like they are poorly trained here.

good points: food, ambience, staff are friendly (not well trained on coffee, but friendly).
