As a long-time Starbucks patron and ex-Partner, I love the idea of having my favorite coffee right around the corner. Unfortunately, this Target Starbucks continues to disappoint. I have visited MANY stores around the country, both retail and licensed, and this location is by FAR the most inefficient and poorly run I've ever witnessed. Every time I give them another chance, I end up regretting it. Needed my coffee fix this morning and thought this would be a quick and easy visit. Three customers back, I watched as one employee ran register AND made drinks (during peak on a Sunday), while the other slowly prepared whip canisters. I left to visit a retail store several miles away, and probably still saved time over continuing to wait in line here. Unless they don't have anyone in line, I will not give this Starbucks my business again.
Edit: I stopped back later this afternoon to drop off a prescription, and it was business as usual. One barista on register/bar, working one order from start to finish before beginning another. I can't help but wonder how much business is lost every year because employees cannot multitask or exhibit any sense of urgency...
The reason for 2 stars is I don't believe I've ever had an incorrect order here. That has to count...

I came back Wednesday at 9am to be told I couldn’t get my reorder without my coffee cup.,. Sidney was so unapologetic and so dismissive. I am not happy with this Starbucks service. Sidney was so rude to me. Why take my name, why waste my time coming back to Apple Valley for my coffee that they messed up.
8 dollars for a coffee that I didn’t drink! 8 dollars and she couldn’t remake the order I wanted, after being told to swing in. I am dissatisfied...
Read moreI’m giving four stars because you seriously have two different experiences!! The morning crew is amazing.! Especially if you have either McKenna, Kevin or katarina working.! These 3 have never disappointed me and they are seriously very efficient baristas... now I’ve gone to this same location after 3pm and it’s a complete disaster. I’ve had one employee literally ignore me for what felt like 5 minutes ... no lines.. and no customers before me.. still don’t know her name but because of that sole experience I will never trust going there unless the three that were mentioned above...
