Starbucks - Redmond

Constructively speaking, the Starbucks location has some of the most unkind staff to customer experiences I have ever been apart of.5 Stars for atmosphere and parking, food items are up to par with all Starbucks stores, drinks are unfortunately 1-3 three stars depending on staff. (And I think are typically due to a simple lack of communication/ understanding.)As customers, we understand that there are off days/bad days/new staff learning days for everyone, but that is not an excuse to belittle or create experiences with your customer that makes them feel stupid, or unappreciated.I hope someone on site sees this review, and takes it to the team, in hopes of more training/brainstorming better approaches to the experiences customers have here.I would also like to include that this review is not reflective of the barista that does take orders at the cash register who has darker hair,(as she was extremely kind and good at her job)

Quick stop for a coffee and strawberry shake. Always the same taste because it's Starbucks after all.

The Store Manager, Arlene, and the rest of the staff are terrific!

I am a frequent patron of this Starbucks. This store has become a vital part of my daily routine, greeting me with warm smiles and a heartfelt “good morning.” The morning staff consistently provide a personalized service, making each visit a unique and delightful experience.Despite having several other coffee options, I prefer to drive farther to this specific Starbucks store for its very special, exceptional atmosphere.The team 's camaraderie significantly enhances the store 's ambiance, turning my routine coffee visits into an enriching experience of community and connection.This Starbucks is more than just a coffee place; it 's where I, and I’m certain my neighbors, feel special and appreciated. The sense of community and, of course, the perfectly brewed coffee that this A-team provides greatly enhance my mornings.

This is my favorite Starbucks! The staff are the most welcoming and helpful people who go above and beyond for guest. On top of the amazing service they are super fast!
