Starbucks,

3190 Northwest Bucklin Hill Road, Silverdale, WA 98383

"I requested a donation of coffee for a sporting event our swim team, the Pacific Piranhas, hosted last weekend. My request was later than S.B. usually allows. However, the manager was kind enough to overide and provided coffee for the officials and coaches both Saturday and Sunday. Each morning I picked up the coffee carriers, complete with cups, cream, sugar and stir sticks, and was impressed with the friendliness and professionalism of the staff! Thank you for your generosity!"

"Easy to get to, plenty of parking, easy to order and great tasting tea."

"Clean and open space for doing a little work while enjoying a hot beverage. Fair amount of indoor and outdoor seating for the location. Server was friendly and knowlegeable about the menu. Place was really clean."

"I get what I always get which is around $8. I didn't look until I got home but the drink was not even close to the top. Very frustrating that you don't always get what you pay for and I did not take one drink from it just to show what I got."

"I was recently given a couple of Starbucks gift cards, so I decided to stop by a local Silverdale Starbucks today. In past reviews, I have stated that I usually do not frequent Starbucks; this is still the case, but having some gift cards, I figured I might as well use one and try a nonfat green tea frappuccino; it's a free drink to me! Walking inside, it was pretty amazing the size this place was, unlike previous ones I had been to. Assuming the space I saw would normally be filled with seating during a non-covid period, but I can't say for sure. But what I can say is this place appeared to be spotless, and items were organized very well. And since I'm not a frequent visitor of Starbucks, a lot of their menu items seemed foreign to me, Nitro Brew, Pink Drink, Star Dink, Dragon Drink, Espresso Con Panna ???? I can only imagine the dragon drink must have real chunks of a dragon in it, right??? ;) Well, I wasn't in the mood to make myself feel like a fool and play the infamous question game. Good thing I had a plan and knew what I wanted! The barista that helped me was bubbly and friendly as can be; she took my order, I paid and waited. Several minutes went by, and I finally received and took a quick drink and noticed it was much different in taste than my other nonfat green tea frappuccinos from other places; this tasted like green tea slightly sweetened but different than what I am used to. I had to inquire about it, and she told me it was pre-sweetened green tea that comes in a large canister; at that point, all I could figure is there are different suppliers that sell it, I'm sure Starbucks has their own supplier, The drink was honestly good though and no coffee added! I won't go into specifics about Starbucks; I think almost everyone knows what they are and what they sell, drinks and some foods. Every time I have driven by this Starbucks, the line has been long; what am I saying? Every time I drive by ANY Starbucks, the lines are long, lol. The staff at the Starbucks are friendly, (at least the ones I have been too) almost to friendly, like they are trying to hard, none the less I would rather have "to friendly" than "not friendly enough"! Interested in this Starbucks? You'll find them at 3190 NW Bucklin Hill Road, Silverdale, Washington. Although this Starbucks is a stand-alone store, the immediate area has several other businesses; IHOP, Firestone, and Little Ceasers are all neighboring businesses, and they all sort of share parking areas. Also within walking distance is Shari's Cafe, Quality Inn Suites, 7-Eleven, Hops and Drops Restaurant, and Taco Time, and so many other businesses. We can't forget Starbucks was created right here in Seattle Washington, in 1971! "Although Starbucks is a multinational chain coffeehouse, they do employ a lot of our local people with jobs, which is great, but always try and support our locally owned small businesses; they are the ones that truly struggle to stay afloat.""
