Starbucks

I never realised how much I’ve been to this Starbucls, with 40 check-​ins and counting and nearly a year since my last review, I feel an updated one is indeed due, and I’m delighted, thrilled to report this store is getting back on track, it is going from being that little store who it is lucky to see them get something right, to being a showcase for other Starbucks stores in the area.
To say the least, the drink quality and temperature has improved so much in the past 6 months, to the point I’d like to congratulate the management, and what better way to do it than a promotion back up to 3 stars than 2?
This store still isn’t perfect, for example being a franchise store they are much pricer than the other stores, which is not warranted by the location They still have made a few mistakes, such as putting the wrong variety of cream on every now and then.
Recently they did try to overcharge me when they was running the Free drink Personalisation offer in January, they tried to charge me £4.65 when it should have been £2.65, or something like that, but they eventually ended up under-​charging me when I pointed it out, which was a little weird, inconsistent, I’m not complaining they undercharged me, but why did they try to charge me so much more, when he knew about the offer and me being a Gold Starbucks card member?
Recently, I’ve tried some new drinks from this store, such as the Burnt Caramel Latte, which was quite an enjoyable drink, and The Rose and Pistacho Mocha, which was okay.
The drive-​through seems to go through pretty fast, but waiting in store can be a little longer, as they put drive through first which is another negative with this store.
This store is getting back on track, but issues with parking outside (being in a garage they is only limited parking), the experience in store (It often takes longer for your drink) and the price being more expensive than most other stores, I feel it doesn’t deserve anything other than 3 just yet, but it is going in the right direction, I’m pleased to say that.

As a regular here I have always had a good experience with both the staff and the products. The staff are friendly and patient (I always make complicated orders) and the drinks and food are consistently high standard. There are never any problems with requests and if something isn’t right they are always fine with replacing or re making. They accept starbucks cards and often have double stars etc. Can’t really think of anything to criticise apart from the fact it is located on a petrol forecourt. If the location was better then I’d give 6 stars.
