| - We were greeted by a very friendly young lady who shouted out "Good Morning everyone!" Interestingly enough only the loud lady from San Diego (me) and her transplanted sister replied back...the rest of the locals just stood there and did not say a word. She told us she was sad that as often as she did that, seldom did anyone answer back, I would guess that many people around here don't know friendly CS when they hear it.
I love to visit Starbucks wherever I go, because although many people think they are the devil, the Wally Wal-Mart of coffee shops; I know that I can get the same thing for the same price and there is no guessing on whether or not it will be good.
We ordered two coffee drinks and a hot choco for my granddaughter. The young lady at the counter was kind enough to ask us if we wanted to the hot choco at "kid temp."
Shortly thereafter our drinks came out and here's the scoop, my sister's drink was fine, my quad shot, soy, sugar-free hazelnut was bitter (no one makes it like my fav Starbucks in Otay Mesa) and my grandaughter's hot choco was IMHO too hot for a child. When I tasted it, although it wasn't scalding, it would've been way too warm for a 3 yr. old to have chugged a mouthful...spitting out would've occurred and then big mama would've gotten ugly.
Sooooo, the coffee drinks, 2 ** but the service 4 **** for the friendly young lady at the register. If you read this and you know who you are gf....Starbucks is lucky to have you!
