Starbucks — Restaurant in Berkeley Lake

This is an amazing Starbucks that is well-run, clean, and values it's place in the community. They know many of their customers by name and care about them. I had seen this community on a daily basis since moving to the area sixth months ago, but it really shone through recently during a difficult time for my family. Due to the pain our dog had been experiencing from a multitude of medical conditions which she had developed in recent years, we had made the difficult decision to put her to sleep. In order to celebrate her and let her know how loved she was, we made a bucket list of her favorite activities and checked them off over her final week with us. The morning of the appointment my daughters and wife went through the drive-through to complete the final thing on her list: a puppuccino from her favorite local Starbucks (this one!). Somehow the staff learned about the circumstances and Greta, Winston, and the entire crew took extra time out of their day to send her off with a specially-crafted puppuccino with sprinkles, bacon, and the works. Genevieve had a difficult time expressing joy in her final years, but her old happy came through for a few minutes as she made quick work of her special treat. Our entire family was in a tender place that day—in many ways we still are—and the time that they took out of their day to care for our special girl meant the world to us. Again, these folks are amazing. The next time you are looking for a place to get some work done or meet a friend, I highly recommend you head their direction. And take some time to get to know the wonderful people...

I love coming to this location! It’s literally like 10 minutes from where I work . the staff here are so polite and I love them !!!! I ALWAYS order here and even some of the staff recognize me LOL! I really want to say there’s a young lady who works there I didn’t catch her name but we always catch up! Lol , I believe she’s always there in the mornings cause that’s when I always see her and man she’s great! The manager should really applaud this young lady because she gives the most absolute customer service . ANOTHER THING , I’ve basically tried almost everything on the menu ( not really but it feels like it lol) I’m more into the frappe and sugar drinks when I feel like I need a boost , even sometimes I customize a order just cause I want to try something different and the staff NEVER SAY NO! Even more at least in my experiences the staff even give me recommendations!!! Hahahaha I love them! in this reference I’m talking about the 2 young ladies . I just bought a drink 02/23/22 at around 10:40am that I just left and I didn’t know what to order honestly ….. I allowed her to make me a mystery drink ! SHE MADE THE MOST BOMB LOOKING FRAPPUCINO EVER ! she said she called it the “ Twix frappucino” I believe she said , LOOKS GREAT ! And sure enough will fill that sugar tooth hahah! I need to catch these ladies name next time ! the manager needs to applaud these 2...

I’ve been to thousands of Starbucks in millions of states and billions of countries and I can say without hesitation that this is the greatest Starbucks God herself has ever created. Greta is amazing. The people are amazing. The mochas are amazing (not as amazing as Kristie used to make them, but pretty okay nonetheless). They know how to perfectly toast a croissant and the partners are very nice to me - especially when their DM is in the store. If this Starbucks had 1 million customers, I would be 1 of those customers. If this Starbucks had 100 customers, I would be 1 of those customers. If this Starbucks had 1 customer, I am that customer. If this Starbucks had 0 customers, it is because I have died and left this Earth in hopes of finding in heaven a Starbucks as good as this one.

Conversely, the Starbucks on Jay Bird Alley is the effing worst - even worse than the Starbucks on 56th and Lafayette Road in Indianapolis, IN which, to this day, haunts my nightmares. Just drive the extra 1.1 miles to this Starbucks. If Starbucks took the staff at the South Old Peachtree store and cloned them and placed them in every Starbucks around the world, there would be no war. There would be no hunger. There would be no Marjorie Taylor Greene. Life would be bliss - just like it is during the few moments I get to spend every day at...
