Starbucks

Overall it’s a typical Starbucks, same menu same taste (yes we are Boyle all robots). However this location felt it is overwhelmed with more crowd than it can handle.
I think if they do some table/​chairs redistribution it would help a lot.
You still can do some studying or working. But don’t expect to accomplish much in this location; bit too overcrowded for that.

This branch of Starbucks is located quite central to London, very close to the west end, Mayfair, Green Park and Park Lane.
This store is quite a nice one, and is pretty cool as well with the wireless charging points, which with just a simple disc plugged into your phone, will charge it for you if you keep it on the table, they is also wired charging as well, if you like to surf your phone while charging!
They do have a good number of merchandise as well, including 2 London mugs (one I think is new) and a few just simply «England»
My barista seemed very nice, she told me that she doesn’t normally work at this store, and she didn’t mind packaging my cup up nicely, as well as giving me a free drink with my mug (£7.50)
I ordered a medium vanilla latte, and it was quite nice, although not the best I have had from Starbucks, I still enjoyed it, although the cream did begin to feel a little like powdered after it melt after a while, so adding slightly more cream and making sure it stays a good quality, could be an idea to make the quality even better.
They is some nice seating here, it isn’t a huge store but still it is pretty cool, with bar style window seating, and the wireless phone chargers really help to give it a nice, cool vibe.
They did have a good range of sandwiches, considering the time of night too, and the baristas didn’t seem to mind me staying very close to closing time, they didn’t seem too rush me out!
This branch of Starbucks seems to be well priced especially considering its’ central London location, even compared to a store in a small town up north, like Rochdale, costing £10.10 for 2 drinks and a mug, which I feel isn’t bad, as they could have charged considerably more due to its’ location, the staff here are nice, the quality of the coffee here is good, with a good selection of merchandise, including the new London mug with Buckingham Palace and the old fashioned red double decker bus, made famous by the British capital! I don’t normally like giving 4 stars to chains, but this branch of Starbucks deserves it!

This Starbucks is like others; The staff are nice and they do very well the coffee. The cakes are very good. I tested the chocolate muffin and it was great with the chocolate melting in the middle. Just in front of the Green Park Station you can take your coffee to walk through the park.
There is not very large place and it hasn’t floors.

«Can I have a tall skinny iced chocolate, no cream please” — Sweet, short and succinct, no?
Apparently not. Since I started my new job, I came in here every day after lunch to get my sugar fix. Every day, I have been greeted with «That is a difficult drink/​You mean a frappachino/​That is a strange drink/​I don’t know how to make that»
Yes you do, it is the freaking easiest drink on earth. No swirls, no squirts, no foam, no nothing. Just plain milk, ice and chocolate syrup. In a cup preferably, but I will drink it out of a milk carton if you make me. Now, Starbuckers I will teach you once and for all:
1) Take a tall (that is the smallest ok?) plastic cup.
2) Squirt chocolate syrup in 2 – 3 times depending on how embarassed you are.
3) put in a bit of skimmed milk (the RED topped carton)
4) Stir so most of the chocolate is mixed.
5) Fill with ice ¹⁄₃ way.
6) Top up with more skimmed milk.
7) Put a clear «tall sized» plastic lid on.
Tada!
My co worker has a soya latte every day and apparently that is beyond them as well…
Please Starbucks, employ someone with more than ¼ brain cell, or let us make our own drinks, because it seems, invariably at any given outlet, most of us are able to recreate our fav caffein hit more proficiently than your certified morons.
And I decided I don’t like writing about Starbucks because I feel like I am being sacriligeous to Sstarbucks from BSG.
But their chocolate syrup does make a very dark, not sweet chocolate drink.

This is quite a large Starbucks, lots of seating and loos. Really friendly staff. The one down the road is much smaller and the staff are not nearly so friendly.

This starbucks is OK. It is tiny, and there is hardly anywhere to sit. There isn’t even a loo when I was there.
The only good use of this starbucks is to order a drink on the go, when you don’t intend to stop and rest. If you do want to do that, then there is a better starbucks just down the road, less than 2 minutes away, on the same side of the road.
I find this starbucks useful when I stand and watch the Lord Mayor’s Parade every year, and spectate near by, needing a warm drink half way through.
Oh, and it is situated very close to Green Park Station.
