Starbucks

"I visit this Starbucks multiple times a week and hardly ever have any issues. However, yesterday I had a very poor experience in the drive-thru. When I got to the window, I asked the lady (who I believe was Belinda) if I could pay for the officer behind me. She said that was fine but it had to be two transactions. This was no problem, and I told her that was fine. HOWEVER- she immediately gave me a face and said "You know he is just a dog handler, and he got a sandwich too". I said, "Okay, that's fine". I did not say anything at the time but the more I thought about it as I drove off it really bothered me that she felt the need to add the dog handler part. I do understand the sandwich part because she might have been trying to let me know why the price was higher. I have paid for people behind me before, and I have never been deterred from paying for whoever was behind me, especially not because of their job title. I get that maybe she was trying to clarify that he wasn't directly in the line of duty or something of that sort- but the point of paying for any military, firefighter, law enforcement, or healthcare personnel is because they are serving our community. Regardless of his position, I wanted to show my appreciation. To build on that, regardless of his position or who he was, I just wanted to pay for the car behind me and I did not appreciate the attitude and judgment that I was receiving. Nor did I appreciate the worker trying to take a gift away from another customer. At the end of the day, it could have had absolutely nothing to do with his job, and that is how the transaction should have been handled. I never asked the lady to say anything to the man behind me or anything of the sort that could have possibly elicited the attitude that I received. I am still in shock that she felt the need to do and act as she did. I'm very disappointed in this location and I hope that this is addressed. Whoever's coffee I want to pay for is my business. Do better. :("

"It's a Starbucks. Sort of in a scrubby little patch of land (for now), this area has grown exponentially in the past few years and will only continue to attract more businesses around it. Once you're inside, it's as nice as any Starbucks. Drinks are good, drivethru is accessible, patio is always empty (without much of a view). No complaints, you know what you're getting here."

"Laurel, Joe, and Rupal are always super nice and quick! Laurel and Joe always get my long customized drinks right every time. If you go when they’re less busy you won’t have much of a wait at all, 6am-8:30/9am is when they’re busiest! —Please don’t leave your trash in their parking lot, they do have a trash can conveniently placed by the door and one in the parking lot y’all. Nobody likes to step on old squishy dragonfruit pieces while grabbing their morning coffee ❤️—"

"Love this location! Just picked up mine and my husbands mobile order on our way through to Georgia, arrived a bit earlier than expected, so I waited in the super clean cafe, and my whole order ended up being ready before the estimated pick up time (on a Saturday, too!) My usual drink was perfect; my husband tried something new and liked it as well. The partner on bar or by the mobile handoff was also very friendly when I greeted her. Kindness and good service goes both ways y’all :)"
