Starbucks - Lakeside (Flower Mound)
Located across from Moviehouse Eatery. It offers a very large patio with plenty of seating.
I stopped by here for few hours before running off to meet friends for lunch. It was late morning and the place felt empty with few people inside.
A nice touch, when you first walk in, to the left, a little open-space cubbyhole. It offers five comfortable leather chairs; three green and two brown. Two additional chairs available with a small table to the right of the entrance.
As you keep walking towards the area to place your order and Pick-Up, you’ll find a long line of high tables and high chairs - Eight brown tables and sixteen chairs.
Additionally, along the windows you will find, six chairs and a built-in table stretching across the window wall. And finally, you will find four tables and eight chairs against the back window facing the Drive-Thru, Patio and Movie Theater.
If you’re looking to work from your laptop, Wi-Fi was spotty. Depending on what size laptop you have, you may be limited on space. The small round tables at this location didn’t have a modern remote worker in mind. It’s better suited for friends and family to catch up on life.
Let’s talk about the patio. Even though, Texas heat can be brutal, they offer plenty of fans to keep you cool and it is somewhat shaded with wooden beams. I do have to say and a little surprised for how large and nice they made it, the patio doesn’t offer full closed roof.
The patio furniture is nice and comfortable. I’ve set there for little bit to enjoy it. You have two large patio couches with cushions. One large wooden conference-sized table with eight chairs. In addition to all that you also can find, eight small tables and eighteen chairs, throughout the patio space.
The Drive-Thru can get tricky and long sometimes. You will need to enter the Drive-Thru on the corner of, “Hanaya” Restaurant. The Drive-Thru exit can also be tricky since you have to be extremely careful. Space is limited to maneuver and watch for oncoming vehicles.
Overall, I’d recommend stopping by here. It’s located in shopping and dining area. The baristas were nice and friendly. All in all, it’s set in a peaceful neighborhood and on weekends you can enjoy local live...
Read moreI ordered my coffee online like usual. The dive-thru was very backed up so I decided to pick it up inside and wow! They were getting murdered! I felt so bad for the young lady that was making the drinks. She was alone! She was also the only person acknowledging guests walking in and saying “hi, I will be right with you!”. The lady at the window sounded very kind but I feel like she could have asked the window to hold one minute and help with the orders? Not sure how Starbucks works but that seemed like the intelligent thing to do. There was another very young girl on food and she looked completely lost. Not acknowledging the guests walking in, not offering assistance not even offering to ring up any of the 4 parties in the store. Definitely understaffed. I wanted to jump back there and help so bad!
Anyways, kudos to the barista actually making the coffees. She was working on 9/5 at 6:45am. I think she should be recognized!! If I could say one thing, I wish she acknowledged the guests standing at the pick-up area. All of us needed simple things. (Drink holder). Understandable though. That looked like a “walking out”...
Read moreThis Starbucks location is primarily designed for quick ordering and convenient pickup, catering to customers on the go. However, it lacks the inviting atmosphere typically associated with traditional coffee shops—spaces where people gather to socialize, relax, or collaborate. Without cozy seating areas or communal tables, it falls short of providing the warm, welcoming environment that encourages lingering over a cup of coffee or engaging in meaningful conversation. While efficient for grabbing a quick drink, it doesn't offer the full coffeehouse experience that many...
