The menu here shines with trendy, flavor-forward beverages that awaken the senses. The Iced Ube Coconut Macchiato is a standout: imagine full-bodied espresso poured over creamy milk and toasted coconut syrup, all served atop vibrant, purple-hued ube coconut cold foam sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes.

It’s this dedication that turns a routine coffee run into a welcoming and efficient experience.

While the bustling atmosphere speaks to its popularity, the staff’s professionalism and warmth ensure it never feels rushed or impersonal. Customers such as Jessica Hughes have found everything from perfect caramel crunch frappuccinos customized with blonde espresso to attentive service that genuinely elevates their visit. Even with steady crowds, the team remains fully engaged, calling out drinks so customers are kept informed and satisfied.

Parking and drive-thru lines can get busy, a testament to this store’s essential role in the community, especially in the mornings. But the wait is always worth it, rewarded by expertly crafted beverages and the familiar comfort of Starbucks’ consistent quality.

I ordered the caramel crunch frappuccino with the blonde espresso, recommended by the barista. It was absolutely delicious. The service was excellent and very friendly. My niece had also purchased a cup. Immediately getting home she filled it with her water and has not put it down since. Very happy customers. Absolutely recommend.

Always important to get some good coffee and a breakfast sandwich at 5 am before you go exploring.

I am just driving through and stopped by this Starbucks. They were extremely busy, with constantly having 10+ cars in the drive through, & consistently 20+ people in the restaurant. It was slow but at no point did I see anyone standing around. They were all working. They were calling out what drinks they were making so that people had statuses of their drinks.

Good for basic coffee remember your in the mountains. Parking can be a bit bad sometimes with the drive through line that goes to the end of the lot.

Dave was quick, helpful and had a beautiful speaking voice. Order came correct and timely despite the place being packed and the drive thru line being nearly out the door.

The best Starbucks I've been in this year, fast and kind service. Re-asked 2 times if the order is right, a million out of 10.

Home town friendly. Great staff was my original review. Since then the staff has changed 3 times and service is no better than McDonalds. They have successfully killed the vibe as warm and pleasant. Now wait forever to order and they can’t make 20% of the menu and all they have to say is Sorry about that.
