Starbucks — Restaurant in Bemidji

Starbucks is great if you prefer fast coffee over quality. Their baristas are trained to make drinks in 1-2 minutes, sometimes sacrificing quality. Despite the speed and superfluous locations Starbucks always seems to be loud, packed with people, and have very long lines. I have found the beans and roasts to be often too dark or burnt. There are a couple drinks I would recommend for coffee lovers, especially after the introduction of blonde espresso - blonde flat white, and iced machiattos. All of the food items come Frozen and premade. Again, fantastic if you'd like your coffee fast, but for high quality brews and food, I recommend visiting local coffee shops...

Not one to write reviews but extremely disappointed. Walked to the counter and no one was there, stood and waited for 10 minutes and eventually went and got someone. She was sitting in the back on her phone. Did not apologize or anything. Then noticed a fly in the bakery items trapped in there landing on all the food. I mentioned it to her and she snapped at me saying...

Love the smell of coffee when I go in and the warm greetings I get from the staff. It's a nice place to chill out after work and get some drawing done as I like to sketch. The drinks are amazing and the banana bread is also a favorite of mine. I would highly recommend coming here even if for nothing else to get a nice cup of coffee to start or end...
