I’m a regular customer and buy at different locations. I’ve never complained, even if the barista had made a mistake (because they had politely fixed and/or replaced my orders). This time, I ordered a venti, cold (no ice) brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso through the app. When I picked it up, I was super confused, I thought they have spilled it. They gave me a warm coffee, a quarter of the size on a venti cup. When I told the barista (I didn’t ask her name) that I thought there’s been a mistake with my order, she was super rude, saying that “we’re not suppose to do that, what do you want?” Saying how they shouldn’t fill it up with milk… All I know, is that I paid for a cold coffee with oat milk, venti size and I was given a warm coffee, tall size (in a venti cup).

I’m probably not the only...
Read moreAverage speed service on drive thru, good beverages, but the baristas are a bit crass. I have stopped by twice in the past two weeks and two different baristas have not so great manners. Maybe a course in politeness would help? I know some of these employees are quite young, but man, no excuses for having such rude attitudes. very cutty when I asked about a drink because I didn't know exactly what it was... the barista sounded ANNOYED. It was ONE question... after that, I ordered any drink I could think of, I just wanted to get out of there. Not a thank you, not a you're welcome, not a have a good day... first Starbucks I've ever...
