Friday was one of those mornings where I desperately needed a Starbucks latte as hubby's and my schedules required us both to be at work at the ungodly hour of 6:30am. I ordered my current go-to drink, a tall blonde almond milk vanilla latte using my Starbucks app. This location at College and Euclid popped up as being one of the nearest locations with the advantage of having street parking out front (unlike many other locations on my route to work).
The cafe was quiet as one might expect at 6:15am and this location has ample seating. There were two very friendly baristas who greeted me, asked if I wanted a bag to carry the yogurt parfait I picked up on a whim, as well as took the time to let me know my use of the Starbucks app and timing of pickup was "well played". I was able to enjoy my drink less than five minutes after ordering it via the app. My latte was hot and perfectly made. The yogurt parfait (which I enjoyed at work) was just okay as it had sliced peaches (similar to those from a can) and raspberries but some of the granola was already soggy. However I'm not sure one can fault the individual store for this.
Although a slight detour from my regular route, this location is probably the most ideal for my morning Starbucks fix given the availability of street parking and I'm sure I'll be back.
