I came to this Starbucks location to charge my phone so that I could contact my mother so that she could send me an Uber so that I could finally get a ride home. My phone had died and I was in desperate need of a charging outlet. Upon remembering that the Starbucks was right down the street from where I currently was, I began my trek to the cafe. I entered the restaurant and immediately saw that they indeed have outlets. I asked one of the employees if I was able to use it. They said that they think so but that the dining area was not open. I stood there for a good 15 minutes trying to get my confirmed Uber ride home. Once that was sorted out, I stood there waiting another 5 minutes before I was told that I had to leave. My phone had only charged to 10% when I was politely asked to leave. One of the male employees had approached me and asked if I was waiting for something. I told him I was waiting for my Uber not knowing that he was asking if I was waiting for an order. He told me that he couldn't allow me to lounge in the dining area. As he was saying this, he was speaking over me and had interrupted me when I was trying to explain to him that I was waiting for my ride that would be arriving in 5 minutes. He assumed that I was 'lounging' just because I felt like it and didn't care to adhere to their Covid dining rules. The fact is I did care and just wanted to have a break from walking 20 minutes in the Florida heat and so that I could finally get a ride home. I'm a very meek and mild person and avoid confrontation as much as possible so while my sister was on FaceTime (she witnessed the ordeal) trying to complain to the employee about kicking me out, I just grabbed my charger and rushed out of there so that my existence and my presence was no longer a bother to the Starbucks employees. So the 3 stars was given for allowing me to charge my phone and the 2 stars was taken away for being impatient and making assumptions about me standing there. In regards to the Starbucks employee, all you had to do was ask why I was standing there and then patiently wait for my response. Then if you waited like 5 more minutes you would have seen me walk out the door to my Uber ride that I had been...
Read moreGreat experience. Nicest out door seating in the area from downtown to winter park (all thought Winter Park has the best patio furniture). The patio chairs are the cozy ones (rather than the hard metal ones) and they have the cozy patio couches with umbrellas. The inside has good table options to work from as well as a high top section to change it up. High top also has electrical outlets! Today, I'm sitting at the small 4 person wood table. I like it the best because the chair to table height ratio is perfect for me (I don't like when my arms are to high). Coffee is delicious as usual and the staff...
Read moreI’ve never have a public review for all the staffs who are working at restaurants/coffee shop. But today I have to write this down. The lady who was helping us out for order didn’t do a good job. I don’t know she’s been trained or not but seems like she doesn’t knows how to read English at all. Her attitude was horrible. We’ve been confirmed with her twice about size but she got it all wrong and of course the drink that were totally wrong too. And I saw her bad attitude at all the customers in this store. Starbuck Manager, if you read this comment, please have all your staffs...
