Starbucks Coffee — Restaurant in London

Starbucks is not a good place to have a cappuccino (my coffee of choice). Starbucks has never been able to deliver a proper cappuccino and serves a very average frothy coffee - in fact, a very average coffee with a blob of froth on top, served in a builder's tea mug (Starbucks seems to like these). I hadn't been to Starbucks for about two years as I favour Costa for a decent cappuccino. The Raynes Park Starbucks showed me that nothing has changed. Also, there was no brown sugar at the Raynes Park Starbucks. I asked the 'barista' for brown sugar as none was on display but was told they were 'out' of it. I fear that Starbucks post-Brexit is going back to pre-EU service, when English cafes were often pretty dire. Raynes Park Starbucks?...

This place is Merton massive. It has tables and chairs set up outside, like 24hrs. I mean always, the coffee is good, and the brownies and dat, the inmates, I mean insiders use the place like a coffee shop. Very wc london. Toilet only for customers, not all prestige. Open on Sundays, not too great if disabled , doorway. Overall good. Refreshments provided by others because of the peasants begging closeby. You can get plastic cup of fresh water free in Starbucks cups, with purchase. Also their paper bags. Amazing. Close to bustop Station and...

Overall: ★★★★★ ((because of the customer service)

Food: You don’t go to Starbucks for food! At all.

What I liked:

• Customer Service. They’re a really lovely team at the Raynes Park location. Always friendly, helpful and get things right. • Blonde Roast Americano hits the spot!

What I didn’t like:

• The food on offer. If Starbucks upped their food game they would do so much better.

Do I recommend going? YES Will I go again? YES Was it good value?...
