| - This review is for the wifi and for the general expectation that No matter where you go in this country, you can ALWAYS count on Starbucks for wifi when you need. NOT HERE! If you are looking for a lovely patio space to work on, they have a great space, but the wifi is unreliable, IF you can even get on to the connection!
I work a block away, for a non-ASU entity. I specifically came to this location, with work in tow, today. I was looking forward to the opportunity to get some work done on their gorgeous outdoor space. You see, I had one meeting early this morning, and another late afternoon. I thought this Starbucks would be a great place to get stuff done. I should have gone to Lola or Desoto Public Market.
never write negative reviews, but the wifi is AWFUL! It is the ASU guest network, not the typical Google Starbucks wifi. I think Starbucks opted for this system because they counted on the ASU wifi being stellar, and reliable, for their patrons. That is NOT the case.
I'm so disappointed because the outside space is SO lovely. I even purchased a Starbucks drink, today--something I never do anymore because I enjoy some of our great local coffee shop coffee.
The frustration lies not in an ill-working wifi, but rather that you could always count on Starbucks for a wifi connection. That magical green logo symbolized a coffee standard, snacks you can count on in a pinch AND wifi! Until, today!
