Starbucks

No sign of the “starbucks” company culture here, poor hygiene standards, the milk is constantly left out of the fridge. The staff come across rude and negligent, it is always very dirty, perhaps that is why the lighting is so dim - very disappointing to say the least. Myself and my family will be avoiding this location in future.

Excellent coffee but one member of staff working their socks off, one fiddling about doing nothing - shifting merchandise around to tidy it, not even replenishing stock, when there was a queue of about 20 people - and another working hard to make orders up. Saturday lunchtime and a 25+ minuted wait for coffee! Other establishments are available but on this occasion we were too tired to walk out and go elsewhere - next time we will

I am dairy and soya intolerant so an almond milk cappuccino was a nice change from black coffee.
The atmosphere was relaxed and at the time my party was there there were free tables.
As the venue is fairly large it is popular with mums with prams. Lovely

Friendly staff and tasty coffees. The food may look bland but it doesn't half fill you up!

Irritable staff with little empathy and poor customer service who were particularly intolerant towards the elderly couple ahead of me in the queue, who weren't quite up to speed with the process of ordering a Starbucks. When their drinks were available for collection the member of staff quietly called the lady's name once and once only. Fortunately I had the compassion to tell them their drinks were ready. Everyone was complaining about the curt service and drinks being left with handles facing away from the customer etc. Apart from the poor service and the fruit flies, I enjoyed my coffee and 5 cheese toastie.

We attended the Bluewater Starbucks today. Sorry to say that yet again the Drinks are poorly made, tasted awful and noones heart is really in it unfortunately. We felt as though we had wasted our money so we won't bother again.

I honestly didn't get the hype of Starbucks, this was my first time ordering from here and it was very disappointing.
There was one couple ahead of me in the queue so I was served pretty quickly, asked for my name which they wrote on a cup and I gave my order. I then waited 20 minutes for them to make my coffee and 2 coffees for the couple ahead of me.
I waited so long that I had to buy a cold drink from the fridge for the wait.
When I finally got my latte, there was no foam, it was just a very milky coffee.
There were no stirrers and the sugar packets were rock solid, I think something had been spilt on them and they'd been left to dry and had therefore solidified.
The bin was overflowing, tables were dirty with cups and spillages on them. There were no cloths to clean our own table.
The place wasn't very busy and there were plenty of staff.
I have always wanted to try Starbucks as a lot of people talk about how good it is, but I honestly found the experience to be very poor and would not recommend it to anyone.

Seasonal lattes and bacon rolls - only way to start a shopping trip.
Can't beat a Starbucks eggnog latte to get in the festive spirit.
Busy when we visited but staff coped well.
