Met up with someone I barely knew here to sell things from my curio collection (An articulated monkey skull from a wonderful curio store, and a gilded page Masonic Bible in case inquiring minds were wondering lol) in order to afford to pay my traffic violation ticket while simultaneously being extorted under domestic abuse. Overall, it was as close to a wonderful experience you could get, despite almost cosmically comical circumstances. Safe place to meet up for a surprise fire sale on stuff that somehow still held value while I was financially crippled. The coffee was impeccable, even though I believe they had to do a pour over brew for me that close to closing time because I usually prefer blonde roast since it's low acid and has a brighter flavor. The staff was very kind that evening. I did feel very weird/embarrassed about my situation leading me to the nearest Starbucks, especially considering no woman wants to part out a historic Masonic Bible from her book collection at the local Starbucks to pay a $250 fine, but ayyy what's a woman to do. Shout-out to the Starbucks staff for their spirit of nonjudgment to a gal just trying to get her life together, and a great late night cup of coffee while everywhere else in town...

Read moreExtremely Slow and Unorganized Service
I’ve been waiting for over 15 minutes at this Starbucks (4840 McKnight Rd, Pittsburgh, PA 15237) for a mobile pickup order. Despite having several employees behind the counter, the service is painfully slow. It seems like they completely ignore mobile pickup orders and give full priority to the drive-thru. There is no clear order tracking, no updates, and no sense of urgency. The app says the average wait time is 4–6 minutes, but that’s clearly not the case here. I feel like my time and order are being treated as unimportant. My appetite is gone, and if I don’t get my order soon, I’m just going to leave without it. Very...
