Read more*UPDATE: This was my third trip in about two months. Unfortunately there has been no change in service. I ordered the new premium chicken croissant sandwich from the menu (the picture made my mouth water) and used a coupon for a free drink. The person taking the order knew nothing about the product I was ordering and it took over 5 minutes just to take my order. I pulled up to the window as instructed and paid. I waited over 5 minutes; I received my drink; I waited over 5 minutes again and was asked to pull ahead to the sidewalk, and they'd bring out my order to me. I waited almost 10 more minutes before they brought out my order. I pulled out my sandwich only to find it was a bagel sandwich. Unfortunately I cannot eat bagels, so I went inside to get my order corrected. Just about 5 minutes of waiting for them to even acknowledge me was too much for me, so I spoke up. Almost 5 minutes went by of me trying to explain what was wrong with my order; I asked for a manager. Finally they said they'd re-make my order. After a few minutes, they said they were out of croissants; a few minutes later we agreed on an english muffin. They said they'd hurry and put the food from the bagel onto a muffin. If I hadn't been so late already, I probably wouldn't have agreed; a couple minutes later I told them I'd prefer my money back. The girl couldn't figure out how to do a refund so i had to wait for the manager again. The young man may not have known how to do a refund as it took another 5 minutes of pushing buttons and squinting at my receipt to finally complete the task. This location at US41 and Hancock in Port Charlotte is so much closer than the Dunkin in Punta Gorda that has superb service, but I'm beginning to think the extra gas is more than worth not dealing with frustrating incompetence. Honestly, who waits 45 minutes for fast food?! So much of my time was wasted and I got nothing to show for it. *Very disappointed this and...
Read moreI visited this location a total of 3 times all around the 4 am open time in the same week. I was delighted I would be able to get a coffee that early on my way to work and sit and read a little before I left. The first two visits were uneventful. However on my 3rd and absolute final visit, I was greeted with "Oh my God" ( as to say, " How dare you come here at open.") upon arrival from a disgruntled employee named Nikki. Apparently she isn't into being in the coffee business when they open the store. I don't want to be there or even awake at 4 am either Nikki but here we are. She went on to make the entire transaction unbearable, and was at least consistent in her unrelenting feral attitude. Stacy, who I'd seen the two prior mornings, and appears to be the ringmaster of this java circus; did as expected, which was nothing to reign in her off leash creature. A younger employee named Cat did take pity on me and show a scared but empathetic attitude, apologizing with pleading eyes and embarrassment for the so called coworkers. I did complain to corporate with no avail, and also mention that Cat was the only reason I continued the transaction. So I now sit in my car for an hour and wait for Starbucks to open so I can be treated like a human, sit in a decent chair and get a drink made to standard. Nevertheless, if you enjoy being cold, sitting in a stark environment, being belittled for being a patron, or just like harsh lighting, by all means visit this location, so you too can enjoy an inferior coffee like substance surrounded by incompetent imbeciles. This establishment would get 5 stars if it was a corrections institute. I will say the bathroom was clean and frequented by the caffeine guzzling rubber knife gang...
