Starbucks

Your average Starbucks. I used to work in the area so I’d come here at least once a day for my caffeine fix. It’s always busy here (likely because of its location). There’s a patio area that faces Erskine, which is nice on hot summer days. The space is quite small so there are maybe 3, 4 tables max. It’s a great place for people watching as there are all different walks of life here. Nothing really stands out for me that I would give this place four or five stars. I ordered a drink and they made a mistake so I was given an extra drink for free, which was appreciated.
Good for: coffee

You’d think that an international franchise with locations worldwide would adhere to a basic level of hygiene. Well don’t hold your breath: this location keeps dirty tables and flies buzzing around. ARGH!
It’s a small location so keeping your 6 tables in the front clean is NOT a difficult endeavour. I conducted a small social experiment. I wiped my table down and left the dirty napkin on top of the counter where they call & bring out your specialty drinks. After a little under 2 hours (time I spent there), that napkin was still on the counter!
I am glad I only ordered a tea because I can only imagine how dirty the kitchen appliances used to make specialty drinks are! I am disgusted that the 2 young women working the shift could not clean up the counter. Let alone deal with a fly buzzing around.

This Starbucks location is narrow and small. Generally clean inside and bustling with people. The line-​up can get long and the place can get crowded. The seats here are close together and you’re most likely not to find one.
The staff here is efficient, super quick and take orders correctly and make the drinks well. This location also has a small nice patio outside during the warmer months.

There are how many Starbucks along Yonge Street??? I really lose count. Seems like there are one at every corner?!
This Starbucks is located a few Block North of Eglinton.
Smallish in size. The tables are really close together and I felt like I am bump into everything and everyone when I walk in!
I was hoping there are more tables downstairs but ended up the stair leads to 2 washrooms.
The bar stools facing Yonge Street does give me a good view of the busy Yonge Street!

Busy during rush hour. Mostly with parents from nearby schools.
Nice sitting in front window in you are into watching the world go buy!
