I'm deeply disappointed with this Starbucks. I ordered earlier two red cappuccinos (clearly expressing 'red' with the cashier repeating red after me because this has happened to me before at the same Starbucks). I asked for fat free milk, however, this was not available (it's funny that between the Starbucks at LXX Checkers, Sandton City Checkers and the Sandton City Starbucks, none of them have fat free milk).

I love the music and the staff are motivated and well trained. I saw this when I came back for a second cup and the barista blurted, " willy back for a second cup!!." People turned to see who I was. Marketing genius. Anyways when I'm in Sandton , I make it a point to visit. Also the rewards program is excellent with a decent points program. But that internet makes my phone run like a super computer. Starbucks is also generous with the data cap. Well done to you Starbucks. Keep up the excellent work and...
