Starbucks

I am not sure if it is due to the fact that there are so few coffee shops in the area (next closest one to my knowledge is the small Tim Horton’s in the Esso station) but this Starbucks location always seems to be busy regardless of what time of day that I go.
The food and drink quality is pretty consistent with other locations that I have visited. The overall quality solely at this location also seems quite consistent regardless of the time of day I go at. They are always well staffed behind the counter and the only real issue I sometimes notice is that the cashiers will ring in quite a few drinks but rarely come over and help the person working that end of the bar once they have dispensed with the lineup.

An interestingly shaped Starbucks location in a strip mall. There is good amounts of seating here, but service is slow.

I frequent this location because it is so close to my work. Sometimes going more than once a day!
My drinks are always hot/​refreshing and made just the way I like them. Sometimes I’m even upgraded to a larger size at no charge.
Since I’ve been going here I see the same faces on both sides of the counter! That’s saying a lot for a coffee shop. I often wonder if some patrons ever leave!
After their recent facelift it has helped with flow of the queue that forms in the morning and lunchtime rush. Less in shop seating now from the looks of it, but I’ve never actually sat and enjoyed my drink.
The only thing negative I have to say is that they usually run out of sandwiches before lunch even starts! And there is one staff member who could benefit from smiling once in a while… But over all my experiences have been above average!

I have been coming to this Starbucks for years, for no reason than it is located in a shopping area I frequent. I have always enjoyed the free wifi and the atmopshere is generally good, although it can get very busy, even on weekdays.

It was kind of a surprise to eye a Starbucks in a shopping complex just off one of the seedier strips in the city, but a very welcome one, as my need for a warm wake-​up drink was high after hours of sifting through dusty thrift-​shop merchandise.
I ordered a cappuccino, which was the usual tasty treat, and a fruit and nut bar, something Starbucks has been carrying recently as a healthier option. They’re basically a granola bar, lightly sweet, and what really makes these stand out is the addition of dried apricots and cherries. Yum!
Maybe it was just the time of day, or the fact that coffee shops in this area are few and far between, but this Starbucks appears to get quite a bit of business.
