Starbucks — Restaurant in Town of Islip

First time visiting since they reopened (after a remodel) and I am so disappointed!!!! Where are our local baristas??????? Who are these people? I'm sorry but the former baristas were like local family! And the layout of the store is terrible-where are you supposed to form a line?! Around the community table? In front of the register, to the left or to the right? Who knows! They didn't have the sandwich I ordered so I got the price equivalent of a similar one which when I got it, looked pretty awful (cafeteria like, tasted fine). Many news articles stated that Starbucks is putting sugar and milk/creamer out for customers to use but NOPE not at this location. We are subject to waiting for the baristas to do it. Oh well, so much for progress! The last other thing I will comment on is that one baristas had a mask on - this alarmed me because he or she was also wearing glasses and I couldn't see if they were sick. I live with someone undergoing chemo, I would really hope that the manager (who I clearly saw working behind the counter) would not have allowed someone sick to be handling food and beverages. I do not need flu germs and a coffee to go. Please be more conscious of the local community you...

This afternoon I entered the Bayport location and tried to pay for a coffee with my app. WIFI was down and I could not access my account. A middle-aged barista stood there and offered no assistance and allowed me to walk out of the store empty handed. After being a Starbucks customer for years ordering across the USA and oversees, she never offered me a coffee knowing this. I would have gladly returned to pay her. Poor customer service. Had to travel all the way to West Sayville to get a lousy coffee. Never once have I been treated poorly by any Starbucks employee. A first and a disappointment. She obviously did not attend the same training as all the baristas I have had the privilege of meeting...

Small store but clean.

Hot chocolate was good.

Ambiance sucks! The piped in music is either telling you to go find some ‘shrooms’ or stab yourself in the ear with an ice pick.

They serve junior high age. Seems odd. 711 cards you for tobacco just before you climb into a casket but Starbucks willingly serves kids...without parents there by the way.

Hey, I’m all for it. We are a capitalistic society. But you can’t have it both ways. Next thing you know we will be renaming our country to ‘New China ‘.

Anyway, I digress...Starbucks in Patchogue off Sunrise is heads above the one I just...
