| - Decent Starbucks, overall, but it's hard to recommend this location as a go-to Starbucks if you're not already in the vicinity. The store itself is nice, and I like that they're one of the few locations that still seems to have the Verismo pods for sale, but it's layout is weird due to the space being long and narrow. When you're waiting for your drink, you feel like you're intruding on peoples' conversations at the tables in the front of the store. Then after standing in their space waiting for your drink, you're forced to walk around them to grab napkins, etc. and exit the store...and those tables ALWAYS have people sitting in them, so it's nearly unavoidable.
The staff are typically really nice, though, and while I've personally never had any issues with my drinks - I literally only drink refreshers and frappuccinos...easy enough, right? - my wife will often complain about inconsistency with her macchiato. I'd value her opinion on consistency more than mine since I think most people are there for a hot coffee drink.
The other issue with this location isn't even necessarily their fault. The parking lot happens to be shared with Whole Foods, and when you're trying to maneuver through the lot or find a parking space...well...let's just say it epitomizes that "Whole Foods Parking Lot" music video (check YouTube if you're not one of the 4.5 million people who know what I mean).
