Starbucks - Coffee shop in Carlsbad - 965 Palomar Airport Rd, USA

CONTRIBUTING to Starbucks profit... This one is closed to COSTCO and like Starbucks everywhere, it ain't cheap. Going to Starbucks is a lifestyle statement and an expensive habit if one were to visit daily. That's just my honest opinion. Came for a muffin and 2 tiny bite sized veggie egg white whatever and that's over $7, still hungry.

I spent a month and a half in Carlsbad, California. The Starbucks was just around the corner in a crazy Costco parking lot. About a week in, as i waited behind two cute grandmother types at the register who were not quite sure what to order or which tumbler to buy. I was enjoying the bit of confusion between oat or cow milk (oat was triumphant) when, to my surprise, over the glass comes my Chai ti latte with a huge smile, she says Kevin I have Gina's Frappuccino in the blender I'll have it ready for you in a jiff. She knew my name, my wife's name. She only came in with me once. I was shocked to have such a wonderful personal service (most Starbucks have great service), but in a week, knowing my wife's and my name are drinks and with such a smile. When I got to the register, Xavier said good morning, and Kevin would like anything else. They all knew my name, my drinks, and how to make my day. Over the rest of the time I spent in Carlsbad, the burista's became the best part of my day. You must stop by if you're in the neighborhood and tell Xavier Kevin says hi 👋

The customer service was good and my vanilla latte was perfect. But the store was dirty. There was trash and crumbs on the floor and it looked like the tables had not been wiped down all day. I went to get a napkin at the sugar and cream station and the trash bins were filled to the top and it was a mess.

Be prepared to wait. Saturday is very busy. Staff was working diligently to get the orders out as fast as possible. Recommend you order ahead of time. That way you can just walk in and your on your way

Daniel very friendly server attentive. And works fast. The chocolate croussant is delicious

Amazing staff, everyone is kind and quick. I want to specifically say that Xavier goes above and beyond. Thank you Starbucks!

They only have one power outlet. Not very convenient for anyone that may find themselves needing some power.

This Starbucks is bottom of the barrel. The store is visibly dirty (it was not busy). Our drinks were so-so. If Starbucks plans to continue charging outrageous prices then Starbucks needs to do better; consistent drinks, service & atmosphere. We have been to Starbucks all over the country, and easily this location is the most disappointing.
