Starbucks 1586 West Branch Street, Arroyo Grande, CA 93420

"Just burned my throat on my too--hot almond milk latte. Beware!! Also, girl gave my husband banana loaf instead of my croissant. Won't be back."

"Not a great experience overall. The place is large and the bathrooms are very clean, but the service is not great and you're left waiting for a much longer time than other Starbucks."

"The service is the worst ever. Today stood at the register for 10 minutes waiting for one of the six employees to help me and my friend and no one even addressed us. We were the only customers in line and it wasn’t even busy. We left and went to another Starbucks. Every time we go to this location it’s horrible. I asked for a receipt once a the girl told me “ they don’t have a way to give me a receipt.” Once in a very blue moon do you get good service."

"This Starbucks has horrible service. I do the mobile order because their wait time when ordering in store is terrible. That being said they never make the drinks correct. They are never blended so the top half of the cup is bitter and the bottom half is too sweet. When I try to mention this to the staff, not all of them mind you, they give me the stink eye. Ive worked for a place that made and served starbucks coffee drinks and there is a standard which this location does not meet. Update: 12/19/23. Had descent drinks the last couple weeks and then the last couple days have reverted back to below standard. Today I picked up my drink and there is a just below half an inch of white mocha sauce at the bottom of the cup, it clearly wasn’t blended correctly. There is a girl there that is usually very nice and will remake it, I thought she was the manager, nope…the ‘manager’ was the girl making the drinks. So the manager is making drinks below Starbucks standard…way to lead by example."

"After a quick workout I needed a quick pick me up to start my day! Today I ordered the following: Apple Crisp Oatmilk macchiato (320 cal $5.95 ) water (grande free :)) Pumpkin and Pepita Loaf (390 cal vegetarian $3.65) Water is water :) The Apple crisp oatmilk macchiato is a bold yet satisfying kick. After the initial purest of strong roast the Apple crisp starts to kick in. Imagine an Apple crisp pie and a vanilla macchiato made a baby and that’s the taste of the Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato. It left me with a warmth and overall joy. In fact taking me to a more Christmas like drink ;) for all the holiday lovers! The pumpkin and Pepita loaf is quite a flavorful loaf!!! I love the consistency and texture! It’s got the perfect spongy texture and the two flavors do not overpower each other more compliment each other :) When you take a bite of the loaf and have a sip of the Apple crisp macchiato together it’s a delicious flavorful explosion with your tastebuds!!! I definitely recommend this combination! As far as the staff they were friendly and willing to answer questions. Took about 5 mins to get my items. One outlet bench isn’t working however there are other places to sit and charge up and work :) Very pleased with everything all around!"
