My girlfriend ordered a Roasted Red Pepper egg white snack because she doesn't eat meat, and they accidently gave us the ham egg snack. I went in and asked for a manager but the manager was on break. So a woman named Ashlyn walked up and I explained the situation to her. She was very understanding and remade the correct red pepper egg white & also made my girlfriend a drink to rectify the mistake.
I was very pleased with how Ashlyn (red head at the blue ridge Starbucks) handled the situation. She genuinely wanted to make it right and she took it very seriously. She was super helpful and truly wanted to go above and beyond to make us happy. My girlfriend is gluten free and allergic to dairy, so she also mentioned that the drink had milk in it so we substituted for soy instead.
Thank you so much Ashlyn at the Starbucks off 40 in Independence. Your great customer service did not go unnoticed .
P.S. Starbucks, y'all should definitely make her a manager. She is definitely management material. My short experience with her during a moment of slight panic (due to the meat thing) means that we will continue to choose Starbucks over the competition, especially this location. She just saved you guys from a 2.5 star review and made our experience worthy of a 5 star review. Normally you guys get a 4 star review due to the fact that it's such a corporate experience, but I hope next time we return to the area Ashlyn is a manager. Starbucks needs more people like her. Mistakes happen, but she turned the mistake into a very positive experience.
Thank you Ashlyn & Starbucks,
A Customer Who Used To Go To Scooters & Now Will Choose Starbucks
