Cris & David at 5:00pm on the 28th of Dec 24 were the best. They were helpful and thoughtful and very efficient. The best Starbucks can do!
Another starbucks review Johnny seriously? Yes. In my quest for a 2023 Yelpie, no business, park, street corner, subway line, or entity is safe. I’m coming for everything they said I couldn’t have.This starbucks is right next to my office, and tbh is always a bit lagging for a typical starbucks. I find myself often checking how long I have been in here while waiting for my tall cold brew. Well, grande cold brew this morning if I’m being realy honest.But I feel them, it’s a starbucks in midtown. That has to be like working on an assembly line in the middle of World War II lol.The staff is super nice though and they have cool mugs. Wish I could give 3.5 stars. But I’ll give 4 F it.IG @jnov_Tiktok@jnov__
A lovely coffee and peppermint tea in relaxed luxury setting in a high-end hybrid Starbucks on the 2nd floor of The Empire State Building. Lots of cocktails as well, but a little early!
Love this place, workers here really do their job amazingly, started coming here and not even 4 days went by they alr recognized me and my orders and alr had it making it while I was paying, one of the worker name Chris is super cool guy, he’ll have your drink ready to go
Was disappointed that they couldn’t make a simple order correctly. I ordered a cappuccino and they couldn’t get it right twice. The froth was non-exist and in fact was a foam that tasted like dishwater/dish-soap. If they cannot get a simple cappuccino order correct, I could not expect them to make any of their more complex offerings correctly.The croissant I had was delicious however. Kudos to them for the food and unfortunately not their coffee.
Friendly staff. Pour over blond roast. Music was loud but open space brings in lots of light. Good for working if you don’t mind the music.
Service sucks! Ordered caramel macchiato and got something like dark coffee with whipped cream on top. Returned to the barista to ask about it that’s not what I normally drink and it tastes so much different only to hear that’s it’s all good, without any concern or effort. Worst service ever!The shop is in great location, kinda clean, but this kind of service pushed me away.
Probably the cleanest Starbucks in the city, and the only one Ive been in that lets you into the bathroom without having to ask for the code to the door (its posted on the door here). Its a Starbucks so its busy, but the staff is efficient and capable. Pretty artwork too.
Its a nice place. Baristas were nice and helpful. I wouldve given them a 5 stars, but they had a restroom that was blocked off, and they said it was not working, but 2 managers went in and out!
Used to be a very good spot. The restroom is changed into some trash room, and many chairs were removed. They just want you to grab a coffee and go.
I was served by a very friendly and polite gentleman call Ra. He was absolutely lovely. Happy holidays.
Nice staff and very clean branch
Pretty standard Starbucks. Actually has seating unlike the first we saw a few blocks away. Friendly cashier.REALLY needs an additional restroom, there is a 5-6 person queue for the 1 restroom right now. Looks like they have an additional restroom just for employees next to the 1 filthy customer restroom that is sitting there unused while people wait 15 minutes to use a restroom.
I order a venti size refresher drink. Because I said no ice. Then I got my drink with half of volume. It is ridiculous. If I order a small size drink without ice, I may get an empty cup. I attended many other Starbucks and didn’t meet this case. The servicer is an Asian man. He is not professional.
On 1/15/23 the Baristas on-site were friendly, welcoming and had outstanding customer service skills. I cannot recall his name, the employee is Hispanic (central or south American), he took care of my order and did a terrific job!
A smile could be worth it really! I know it’s Sunday and the waitress could be happier working on other day but seriously…. Asking allergy stuff we we’re forced to ask her to check for it. No move. Absolutely horrible services
Expensive coffee, zero atmosphere, everything in plastic, even to eat in one gets the brownie in a paper bag.Seems that the company hates the planet: everything is „one way“ :(
Dont visit this Starbucks at night. The staff was obviously frustrated about cleaning the store to close so they chose to block off an area of seating 3 hours before they even closed just so they didnt have to clean it again. I myself am a barista and know that they cant do this just so they can get out early. Also the staff was very rude and I could tell my drink was so annoying that they huffed when I grabbed it. I get it you work in one of the biggest cities in the world but youre a cafe store and right near the empire state building aka a store that just recently opened. Go somewhere else if you can at night.
Extremely rude staff, sub-par coffee, never again!
Fairly large branch. Not a huge amount of seating though. Service fast and friendly. Coffee, which I ordered extra hot was scalding, just as I like it. Great views, most of the walls are glass. The place feels very light and airy. I couldnt find any free wifi. AT&T signal very good though.
I brought a guest who does not like Starbucks to this location hoping to change her mind, but when she placed her order, Sasha was shockingly hostile in telling her that a Misto cant be decaffeinated. She graduated to being downright rude when I questioned the cup size. Then Sam showed his support of his colleague by being as nasty as she when I commented on the cup being half full, tossing the contents and making us wait while he prepared another coffee. Altogether, it was not a nice experience. Especially when it cost more than $6 per cup of coffee. I guess this Starbucks is only for those of us who are already hooked and are willing to overlook poor customer service.
Great Starbucks location in the heart of New York! Power outlet, seating, and wifi are available. However, bathroom requires you to purchase something (needs a code).
These baristas were very friendly and made sure we were taken care of with free water on a hot day (we bought other things of course but they were nice enough to not charge for the ice water).

Tastes the same wherever you are in the world. Wouldnt reccomend for visitors who want something different but at least you know what to expect when you do come to starbucks
We usually go to Starbucks and like it. This one not only had the least nice personnel, but the orders took incredibly long and when they were ready they were wrong. I hope other costumers complain as well because I saw many times how they came back with their orders to have them re done. Not good!PS: the toilets were closed and after the third time we asked the staff to open them, they were soooo rude...
Worst location ever. I work in the neighborhood and drink my coffee from Empire State Building location. Every time I went to this location is probably due to rain or snow. I don’t recommend this location. Customer service is slow and sloppy. Not enough people working. Employees have bad attitude. Shop is dirty, filthy.
Im a happy barista at a Starbucks store in Wisconsin and I get the feeling this is a well-managed store. Customers are usually greeted upon entry (unless the baristas are extremely busy), are cordial and attentive, the store looks clean, and my drinks have been made perfectly. (And I make some customizations to mine b/c I know I have a myriad of options!) Ive been to 2 other Starbucks in the area during my stay in Manhattan and there have been a few mistakes with my drinks, baristas not paying attention to my order, and some dirtiness in the stores.
Lots of seating and relatively quick service! The bathroom was horrendous but thats to be expected in Herald Square--bring hand sanitizer and maybe a couple of napkins and youll be fine. If you need to sit and study or read for a while then head here!
Please stop charging extra for plant based milk.
I used to come to this location often to study and I have used their bathroom often as well. Months later I come back and now they claim to not have a bathroom 🚽 and it’s locked.
Service is terrible they do not know how to do their job debris stars are very unpolite I do not know how to do anything I asked him nicely to meet remake my drink and then continue to keep on doing it incorrectly the cashier does not know how to do anything I told him what to do to my coffee 14 times she forgot multiple things inside of my coffee and when I told the person making my coffee they forgot to add it they told me I have to go back to the counter and pay for the mistake that they made overall experience was terrible do not come to this location if you want to eat aggravation and walk out with nothing
Good coffee shop, great place and full of light with large window walls. The coffee products are good and you can find it in a large variety. The view outside is spectacular and the entertainment is quite nice in if you are ok with a little loud music which was a good selection by the way at the time when I’ve had a coffee here.
I go here to study up before class. I of course get my chocolate croissant. But its a nice chill place that you need to attack k the line as you get in or watch its start growing. What funny is, I dont drink coffee and only come for the croissants. Other then that nice vibe.
Clean and employees very nice
Unfriendly and rude cashier.
My utmost appreciation goes to Ruther (soild barista). The only Starbuck in NYC I really enjoy going to. The staff is excellent! Eveyones fast, clean and precise with orders. Nothin but pluses. I recommend this Starbucks for family and friends, and especially tourist. Thank you Ruther!!
Music is wayyy too loud - louder than any other cafes that Ive ever been to. Asked the staff to lower the music multiple times, but requests were reapedly ignored. If you need to concentrate, get work done, or preserve your hearing - avoid.
RUTHER is the man , always smiles on his face , is very professional and friendly, thank body ,,you doing great job
This Starbucks has the best staff. Thats it. Thats the review. They are friendly and try their best to provide great service. Heywan (spl?) is amazing, shout out to her.
I made an order for two people, both of them were messed up.
One of best in city! Attached to a hotel, mostly a tourist crowd, so not as crowded as other locations. Great high top tables with outlets and views onto the street. Staff is great. Open later than most other locations till 9:30pm.
One of my favorite Starbucks. The staff is very nice and friendly. The location is very clean and festive for all of the holidays. Its small but has a few tables. Ive had a few of their breakfast sandwiches. They have been fresh and properly heated.
I am giving 2 star because of the loud and unpleasant music. It was really irritating.
Really bad experience like never before, very rude cashier, take our order wrong and not bathroom available for customers. Also today supposed to have a promo that was not available at this place.
Very clean location that opens early. Well stocked and staffed. Quieter than your usual Starbucks.Right next to the U Hotel and massive SB public library.
Space is spacious and RectangularAnd strong air conditioner is provided
Horrible rest room. Just check the pictures
Good as usual
Lovely chap served us and was very helpful when we asked for directions. He’s an asset. Was in about 12 30 Sat 02/23/20 thank you for your kindness.
The baristas are so friendly and amazing! Great place to get a little bit of work done.
Careless and rude staff. The guy made one tea, then left to do nothing (in front of me!) and after that I’m some minutes finally decided to make the second tea I’ve ordered.The restroom is extremely dirty and is occupied all the time by non-customers.
Oh my GoshThis customer serviceJanelle yelled at me for ordering non fatThis starbucks is so slow and one of the worst. I always try not to come here but once again they do not disappoint.
I had a problem with a order in this store. The manager was fairly polite when he was talk to me. He showed courtesy and in any moment try offers other solution than give the money back.
You can charge your phone at Starbucks, you can chat and meet new people at Starbucks and of course they make a great coffee at Starbucks
Had kids dying to go to the restroom. They made us wait in a huge line to make a purchase before letting us use the one restroom, as the other is out of order.
Very clean and full of breakfast options.Not much please to seat and relatively crowded but definitely a very good option for breakfast or a quick stop during the day.
Standard selection but not very good place for sitting and watching the street
A lot of people but nice service, and really good chocolate muffin
They have fancy wireless charger rings for your mobile devices. That was cool. But it was the slowest SB ive seen in Manhattan.
Service is very poor and staffs are very rude.sucksi love starbucks but i dont want to go to this starbucks again.Please be nice to customer
Took 15 minutes to get an iced coffee which was $5. I would expect faster service from a Starbucks in such a busy part of the city.
Music is too loud. Service not so kind. Hot chocolate was without chocolate sauce. It‘s a weird place.
Good place to chill and work in NY!
Like any other Starbucks. Friendly atmosphere and sweet, but rushing staff. Restrooms could be nicer
The Starbucks itself was clean. The associates were friendly and helpful. But the bathroom 🙈 I mean it applies to all bathrooms in Manhattan. While we all appreciate the availability of public bathrooms in these coffee shops, can Starbucks corporate please consider investing into a robust cleaning crew, that can tackle stores in areas all day long, so that they don’t look like the atom bomb went out there? Or like it’s an under bridge homeless shelter? We pay $7-10 for a cup of coffee. I’m sure you can afford investing into a proper cleaning services!!!
Wanted to comment about their amazing staff! The people that hand over the drinks at the end of the counter have continuously impressed me with their great memory and kindness. Their ability to remain calm and collective during busy hours is something for all of us to note of.Keep up the great work and I thank you sincerely for your hard work!! Very aspiring
This is the best Starbucks ever!!!! I have never encountered a friendlier staff in any other coffee shop.
Just needed some ice and I got it with a smile. Friendliness always goes a long way with me.
It was so Dirty. The Meal was so bad. Cakes and biscuits were ok.
This place has some of the nicest and coolest staff that I have ever seen in a Starbucks.
They finally spelled my name right! 😁💙💙
I love coming to this Starbucks. They know my name and always make my drink the way I like it.
Amazing staff, Jona is incredible. He remembers your order and he is very friendly.
Great atmosphere, friendly staff. My go to
Poor service, had to repeat myself several times when ordering, server didnt want to be there , spent close to 20 dollars and then refused to take 100 dollar bill - because she didnt have change to give.
Little bit of a wait with chatty staff, but warm and nice to be, in the shadow of the Empire State Building.
Dont go there..disgusting washrooms clearly havent been cleaned for over a monthThata just absolutely disgusting
I stopped at Starbucks today at 5th Ave and E35th. I order a large iced cafe mocha, and the dude says that comes with 2% milk, is that okay? And I said No, I prefer whole milk, thanks. He rings me up and its $6.95 and with tax $8.44. And I said Whoa, why is there so much tax on $6.95? (which is already outrageous, but never mind that). He said oh its not just tax, theres a fee if you want any other kind of milk different than what it comes with. I turned incredulous, and said something like you have got to be ^*#^%ing kidding me... is that for real? And he says, yeah, and the manager calls over saying thats the policy. I said I cant tell you how many Starbucks coffees Ive ordered from, and this is made up b.s.... show me where it says theres an extra charge for choosing any milk alternative in your coffee and the manager says, Im sorry its not printed anywhere, thats just the rule. I turned and walked out, crossed the street to Dunkin, and got the same thing for $4.29 with tax. This must be a franchise Starbucks making up their own rule, and nobody challenged them before. And they dont post their bogus surcharge...
Love it. Love their croissant with hot decaf latte.
Great service at a perfect location. See if you can get a seat viewing the Empire State Building! Can get very busy though!
Slowest food service of Starbucks drinks I have ever experienced....
Not a coffee drinker. But, they are always fast and efficient
Slow and expensive. The lady forgot my coffee then gave me attitude when I asked for it.
I come here weekday mornings. The staff is usually very friendly, attentive, and courteous!
Went to have a tea and do a meeting. Prefect! Table and chairs are available and I wifi was good.
Fix that bathroom thats my only complaint.
What kind coffee shop lock their restrooms???
12 mn for a coffee and toilets not clean..don t go there! 😵😵
Terrible service terrible staff filthy restaurant do not visit this Starbucks.
Bathroom is only for staffs Unbelievable.
Not crowded
The restroom was discusting the worse I have been in a starbucks
Good location and fast service 🙂
We are standing outside it’s 9:08pmThey close at 9:30 they won’t let us inside they said they’re closed as customers sit at tables inside. Wow!!!
Took too long to get coffee and staff were either new or just didnt know
This has to be the best Starbucks Ive ever been to in NY. The staff is very friendly, they all greet you when you walk in, all the drinks are make with care & precision, and they love to get to know the regulars. Youre in and out in 5 minutes without feeling rushed. Seriously, the best!
Was there over the weekend during the parade, the place wasnt too busy and they refused my pregnant wife use of their bathroom even after we purchased coffee. Sad service and disappointed.
Standard Starbucks with nice location on fifth Avenue...good wifi
Such a great location! This place is great and its so convenient. Its also pretty spacious so you can easily place your order and wait far away from everyone else (due to covid).Everyone who works here is always super friendly and get your order ready fast.
Grabbed 2 coffees yesterday around 6pm. 2 girls were working and 1 just had extremely bad attitude. Asked for medium decaf coffee and room for milk. She gives me americano with hot water mixed and no milk. Asked for milk and she slides the cup towards me and say nothing. But she goes to her co-worker that “i don’t think they ever been to Starbucks”.Not to mention 25 minute wait.
Just started a Keto diet, Aidan was super nice professional and helped me narrow down what my options were. Very kind! Thank you & happy holidays 🎄
I know my Starbucks order now. Great music. Clean. Super friendly. Next time Im getting on your free wifi. Love
Store wasnt even closed . I came in 5 minutes before closing and they said they were closed and refused me.
Its a Starbucks, like any other, anywhere else in NYC / USA
Pretty busy location, but the staff was very friendly.
Surprisingly a great place to sit down and talk
I really fall in love with Starbucks even if they misunderstood my name
Very nice place for a cup of joe.
Favorite Starbucks in the city. The Starbucks crew here is fantastic with great vibes all the time. Alison and Haewon are both great
They dont know how to make a standard Starbucks drink thats been on the menu for years. Had to explain to barista how to make it. Then he proceeded to ask me to open the lid of my cup and simply poured what I told him to put in there rather than making it right.
Nice layout, good internet, polite staff.
Another nice Starbucks:) 5/5
I am not a fan of Starbucks. I had an iced mocha and a blueberry muffin. It was okay. Service was fine. What I cannot understand is no toilets. Seving food and drinks, providing seating but no toilets and the nearest toilet is a Starbucks about 4 blocks away. How is that customer friendly or service
Nice, clean, and not crowded. You can seat inside, it is cool, chairs/tables are comfy + you cancharge your phone.
Cramped location since its not as large as the Empire State Building branch (2 blocks away).
Baristas are friendly and asking for proof of vaccine, always playing really good playlist with a wide variety of music, really good for studying
Waited 20 minutes for a cup of tea. Just hot water and a teabag. Had two staffers confirm what I was waiting for. Wasnt a busy time of day either (10am)
The best Starbucks in NYC. Friendly staff. Excellent espresso ☕
Had to show vaccination card was great idea friendly safe place
Got just a quick coffee.
This is my wifes go to Starbucks. She goes there so often that the staff will get her order ready as soon as they see her face without her placing the order. Very nice place with awesome friendly staff!
For NYC traffic it does not get any better than this!!!! Super nice place and staff!!!!
A good Starbucks, this one.I ducked in here for lunch one quiet Sunday afternoon, and it was nice. First, this bucks location is a full-size restaurant pretty much, with tables and chairs and restrooms and a comfortable amount of elbow room - not one of the locker-room-sized jobs of some (perhaps most) Manhattan coffee shops. Second, the atmosphere was relaxed enough (during my time there, at least), also atypical of NYC. My order came up quickly and correctly, and I proceeded to have myself a nice little luncheon there, kept company by a good book as a sparse Midtown crowd trickled past the windows. Finally, the restroom was functional, and I left the place feeling nourished and at peace. Bueno!Big thanks to all the folks at this restaurant, for enabling my lovely Manhattan outing. Keep it up :D
Staff are nice and very helpful, the store is clean too. Great service and and the location is a plus!
Save yourself some time and aggregation and go to a different Starbucks. Every time Ive come here there is a 10+ minute for my drink after ordering it. And thats assuming they got it right. There are so many other Starbucks locations in the area; go to another one for better service.
Great option to grab some coffee in the morning.
If youve been to any Starbucks youve been here before its just in NYC
I used to be a regular at this particular Starbucks...they recently remodeled it and I think the old one was much better. They also took out one of the bathrooms I guess in order to make the wait in line much longer...good thinking 👎👎
Great Service and Workers, but the bathroom is so in need of cleaning more often at Starbucks Please otherwise love going there
Great and fast service at this location. I rarely go to Starbucks but the staff here are amazing, friendly and fast.
Open at 6am, great attention and food.
Nice and frienly. Internet works really well. Coffee is really good as well. Alway stop at this particular one in NY when visiting.
A great Starbucks venue....always a great place to get your latte and sit down and enjoy it..
Very neat place...fast service...Starbucks quality...enough and clean sitting wooden chairs..
Right now my favorite Starbucks
Its a nice sized Starbucks with available outlets to charge your devices.
Not that busy, music is not loud
Really nice place to do some light work and drink your favorite Starbucks coffee drink
This Starbucks needs a zero. They need better baristas. My mom and sister brought two green tea frappuccinos. Their drinks were horrible. They asked the barista to make their drinks again. It didnt make a difference. The drinks were too sweet. They were so sweet that taste of the classic syrup didnt taste right. It tasted spoil. Not coming back here again.
The baristas are pretty fast and accurate.
They suck at this location 20 people got their orders ahead of us after we ordered in person. we had to ask if they forgot us before they made our drinks
I was waiting for my order about 20 minutes. First, they forgot about my sandwiches. Second, they prepared cold caramel macchiato instead hot one. Third, the beverage was so bitter that I couldn’t drink it.
A Typical Starbucks but great service
Free water because thats all I can afford.
Very crowded, not very clean at the time I went.
It was pretty easy to find sitting and charging spot at 1pm, good customer service!
This is my go to Starbucks in the area. There is another one not too far away closer to the Empire State Building but this one tends to have less of a crowd and I just like it more. Out of all the times I have been only once did they mess up my order, but they were prompt on correcting the issue.
Great service air conditioner is nice and cool
Restroom really dirty 🤧
Since opening Im a costumer and the best place to relax
Best place to have your morning coffee. Friendly stuff.
Good spot to sit and work. Gets busy, but Wi-Fi is strong and the coffee is good.
Small location but the baristas are quick and courteous.
We stayed in hotel above this place. Nice place, but I prefer others if not take away.
Three starbucks on one block 🥵
Coffee terrible. Toilet
I work herr, its pretty cool
Great stop for a coffee
Very Enjoyable Fresh Coffee And Bakery!
Moatly busy and line up. But service is quick and polite
Lovely place to hangout
Step in 2 minutes before closure and been kicked out
Was in the city, popped in for a bit of breakfast.
Only ONE bathroom and it was filthy. Not up to par with expected Starbucks standards.
I like their back less chairs 😄
A best experience
Great coffee. I recommended ice coffee.
It is freezing in here. They need a vestibule or working heat curtain at the door
Starbucks is the place to have a coffee l love there dream bars 😚
It was a simple order and they messed up the basic instructions and in the end they don’t even know what the original order was.
One bathroom is broken, 30 min line to the other bathroom in this dump. Toilet is leaking in the hallway.
Starbucks in New York is still just as good
Great tasting coffee , helpful staff, $$$
Expect to wait 20 minutes if you ordering a hot sandwich, and that if they dont forget your order altogether.
Excellent branch
The hot chocolate is lovely :)
Nice staff, good drinks
Broken toilet. Cannot use the bathroom
The staff is not friendly.The bathroom is not clean.A small branch.
Had people but not a long wait
The staff was too busy talking about their social lives to refill the milk station.
The worst Starbucks Ive ever seen. Only one person who makes coffee. I had to wait 20 minutes.
Always a favorite java spot.
Coffee sucked and disgusting process food
One of the best! Very fast
I love the mobile app!!!
Sure nice cafe 😄
The customer restroom was DISGUSTING!!! So how clean is the rest of the shop? Never again!!!
Good service, bad bathrooms
Where would we be without Starbucks?
The place was dirty back to back day told one of the day time managers she nothing to fix it let me know what you guy to do about this
Music is too loud; the bathroom smells like the NYC subway.
Only there for the pink drink
Efficient.
Service was poor. Everything else was like any other starbucks.
Friendly coffee shop, recommend.
My favorite Starbucks.
Alway a pleasure
