I love this store since it opened! It’s convenient and the staff are friendly. However, I recently had a memorable experience that wasn’t exactly positive. I went into the store 2 days ago and noticed right off the bat that the staff were completely swamped and another member of the staff who was just sitting there on her laptop. The barista who was up front was very friendly, but unfortunately made my drink incorrectly, no big deal. So I asked for the drink to be remade, not an issue. Until, the woman on the laptop decided to get involved and wanted to understand what the issue was. I explained the situation to her and was immediately met with an attitude and just a general dismissive attitude. I asked the staff member who was remaking my drink about her and the staff told me she was their store manager. I was shocked that a store manager would even talk to a guest like that or let the store be swamped in the way that it was and couldn’t even bother to help.

Kudos to the staff in the early am Monday through Friday, I hope Starbucks knows how appreciated you are. I have visited a few others in my area of zip code 08060 however this one is my favorite. The Starbucks in targets close earlier than other brick and mortar locations and most do not accept your Starbucks rewards app for points. This review is current of 11/12/2022. Hope this helps folks who read this decide when they want the best...
Read moreThe one review wasn't kidding about the homeless motel next door, creates a safety and security concern when theres people clearly not of their right mind just stumbling aimlessly around the parking lot and wandering right up to unattended vehicles, dunno what corporate was thinking when they built a store here.. there's really not enough room for one
Can't imagine being comfortable enough with the security of the lot to be able to sit down inside, feel bad for the employees having to leave their cars out there all day and having to regularly expect to interact with that, it's just inviting trouble
Employees were friendly and food was alright but it's not worth the hassle of traversing the tiny congested lot and speed bumps and people wandering around looking to...
