I have been a frequent visitor to this Starbucks, primarily using it as a space to focus on my school work. However, during my recent visit, I couldn't help but notice some concerning issues that need attention.
Upon entering, I observed water leaking from one of the bathrooms, which was a bit disconcerting. Additionally, my experience was further marred when I witnessed what appeared to be a tense exchange between the new manager and one of the baristas.

I've been to all of them many times over the course of several years and this one is always extremely quick, like you're through the drive through in 2 mins or less, the employees are over the top nice (especially the really energetic lady who takes drive through orders,) and they have never, not once messed up my drink while the other Starbuckses almost ALWAYSSS do something weird to my coffee to make it taste terrible. I now avoid all other Starbucks and will go out of my way to come...
