Ordered 2 drinks, mediums for both, total came to £10.20!!! Would’ve been cheaper going for a couple of pints. I’ve visited this place a number of times for the odd drink but this will be the last. I don’t know who sets the pricing but £10.20 for two drinks, one of which is essentially pre made with ice and the other coffee requires little human skill to prepare as the machine is fairly automated, is absolutely ridiculous.

Shift supervisor snapped at a colleague at one point. I used to be a frequent customer but sadly, the place has...

So a nice visit turned into one of us being essentially kicked out, so my partner waiting outside with our well behaved dog while I watched the server run out of cream then not be bothered to make more, serving us one full frappucuno and one deflated looking attempt; couldn't be bothered arguing since partner and dog waiting outside so just left, but probably wouldn't bother going back. Apparently it's "often the case that people walk in with their dogs cause they're allowed in other Starbucks" so... maybe a sign or perhaps a...
