Starbucks

No different from any other Starbucks.
You know exactly what you’re going to get and that is why Starbucks is always a safe bet for a sit-​down, coffee and scooby snacks.

Person here didn’t really know what I was talking about when I simply asked for a small coffee. I know England has different expressions but this attendant was just plain dumb! Coffee was okay!

I like to go with my friends when I have free time to spare to Starbucks and enjoy their company and a cup or two of good quality Café Late. I like its taste and especially how they make it here but in this Starbucks the staff were a bit sluggish. I had to wait maybe for 10 minutes in the queue to get my drink and I noticed that the Baristas were not in a hurry despite that there were a lot of people waiting. However, my overall experience of Starbucks is good and I will visit them again.

Great place because the baristas were so fast, friendly, caring, accommodating and knowledgable. Not all Starbucks in London are the same. But this one rocks!
The Barista sensed I was keeping an eye on my weight with all the «skinnys» I was ordering. Skinny caramel macchiato. Skinny blueberry muffin. So she offered me a sugar free caramel topping in my caramel macchiato, which I didn’t know existed and was never offered before. All this time I was ordering, and I didn’t know!
So four stars to you for teaching me something I should’ve known a long time ago. Plus, this place is cozy and clean. Conveniently located next to the famous and pristine Langham Hotel in London. Directly across from the Langham’s spa, The Chuan spa.

Coffee tastes OK, staff were great but this is all in my mind. In reality I see why Starbucks makes no profit as its electric bill must be phenomenal allowing all and sundry to use their power points. And then extra shots for free using their loyalty card. They must be running this place at a loss, just like the NHS hospital around the corner. Total 100% service, 100% committment. No wonder they don’t pay tax. PS It was a bit quiet today though — I wonder why?

Gets very busy. Service can be slow during busy periods. However, you can expect the usual good quality coffee and food.
Certainly worth a visit if you want to just get off of Oxford Street for a bit, and return to your shopping later.

There is something really cosy about this Starbucks (I’m not crazy about Starbucks coffee, but it’s def the atmos that wins me over with this one). The staff are really friendly and there is adequate seating.
They have lots of power points for laptops WOOHOO and the free wifi always goes down a treat.
It can get pretty busy, but you should find a seat or table to sit at.

Normally I’m a fan of Starbucks but I didn’t like the attitude of the staff here. After having got my made my drink with dairy milk instead of soya milk even though the order tag stated soya the staff were reluctant to remake my drink instead quizzing me on whether I was actually allergic to dairy or not. Not I’m not. I just don’t like it and didn’t ask for it and it isn’t what the label on the cup says so should I settle for it just because you made my drink wrong? Grr. I did eventually get my drink remade but I really shouldn’t have had to wrangle with the barista in order to get what I had paid for.

Best place to get away from the mayhem of Oxford street. Bit more relaxed bucks with friendly staff. Especially the taffy guy!
Always worth a stop in and latte up

I love you, I love you, I love you!!!
I mean no disrespect to my normal twice-​daily Starbizzle on Carnaby St, but this branch has won my heart.
I visited the Langham Place Starbizzle for the first time this morning. I ordered my normal drink (an iced 4-​shot espresso) and the lovely gentleman behind the register mentioned a policy that I’d never heard of until now: Apparently, if one pays for a drink using a Starbucks card, ALL EXTRA SHOTS ARE FREE. So, by loading up a gift card and using it to pay for my daily fix, I will only be paying for a single shot. That’s AMAZING.
I’ve been getting the same drink at my normal Bizzle for months now. No one has ever mentioned this to me. My first time in the door at Langham Place, though, I learn a money-​saving secret that will greatly enhance my coffee drinking experience. And with all extra shots free, dare I be a mad-​woman and step back up to my old 6-​Shot Stunna? I think the answer to that is YES.

Ideally situated in order to grad your sweet, appealing, pleasant, agreeable, perfectly hand made cappuccino. And if you wish to take it in, well you’ll find a room downstairs with sofas and all what you need to make you feel like home.

I wouldn’t go near a starbucks, so why 4 stars?
Starbucks serve coffee I will happily never drink. But and its a big but my dislike of their coffee is in the context of how the quality of their coffee sits in todays coffee market. Starbucks opened in the UK in 1998 and before that coffee for the masses in the UK was utter shit. Anyone who claims Starbucks ruined coffee in the UK is an self deluding idiot. All the little italian cafés in London that I ever visited served up powdered instant coffee with milk heated with a frother to give the illusion of a cappuccino and largely served food that… well thats another subject but the coffee was terrible. Starbucks started the coffee revolution in this country that has turned us all into Java experts with so much choice on our high streets. This is my two fingers up to all the pompous arses who bang on about hating Starbucks and how they invaded and ruined our culture. That said their pint of milk Latté with a hint of coffee would never pass my lips. I thank you.

This is another Starbucks near my work. If I walk past my usual Make Mine coffee spot, I come to this Starbucks. They are great folk in here. They even helped me get the exactly perfect coffee and grind to make more coffee at work.
This has all the usual stuff with one extra bonus — there is a book exchange here. That alone makes this Starbucks well worth the extra trip.

At the quiet end of regents street opposite the yummy iTsu is a lovely Starbucks coffee.
Deceivingly huge as there is a large downstairs in the basement area filled with chairs, tables and armchair styles sofa chairs.
During the summer it is also lovely to sit outside and watch the world go buy whilst sipping on a delicious mocha light frappacino.

Even though this starbucks is usually quite busy (which I usually don’t like) but it makes up for it in the quality of the drinks served, both hot and cold. They are all really really good.
The toilet it good here, it is clean and well-​kept, which is always good (and less disgusting). Although there can be queues here during lunch hours.
The service is good, with friendly staff who don’t mind you using the toilet without being a customer– a good thing on a high st with no public toilet facilities.
Don’t expect to get a seat here during the lunch hours (though its still quick to order), but most of the time you are likely to get a good seat.
Overall a good starbucks! And although it doesn’t really add to the review, a few friends of mine from college happened to bump into Bill Clinton here once, and the photo is dotted around the college now!
