I like supporting Starbucks that offer a café experience (rather than just a drive through or walk up) and this location is a wonderful example of why I frequent Starbucks as opposed to any other place to get coffee (coffee can be gotten anywhere). This location has lots of light, a fair amount of tables, chairs and space as well as welcoming baristas! I believe they have a drive thru but I spent most of my time indoors chill'en having my coffee ! read more

Solid Starbucks. Good location, close to hotels, nice open design, friendly people, good coffee. I find that when I smile and ask people how they're doing, they're often nice back to me. read more

Quick service in the drive through. Consistent with other Starbucks . Happy with my drink and the kids loved their cake pops

The atmosphere here stinks! Every time I've come to this location it smells like marijuana and people smoking fentanyl. The people who work behind the counter, incompetent and rather disrespectful. For example, frequently My coworkers and I have come here to get coffee in the afternoon and the attendance wanna know more about your personal life rather than understanding how to charge for the cost of the coffee.The best way to describe it is passive aggressive, work environment, and frequently the people who are working here are careless and they come across as snarky. It's not a place that I care to bring my daughter to anymore because every time we walk in there, she also talks about how bad it smells and how the people look unclean in this establishment. I must fist at a public find another location to get coffee and stay away from this location. It's also directly across from a camp city of homeless and drug users and frankly, you will see the drug user dealing in front of the camp. read more

Ima keep it real this photo is of my wife's but it look damn good I feel like I'm drinking it as I'm staring at it! Aye Aye COME THRU! Drink coffee #thathandsomereview read more

Starbucks - Green Tea Crme Frappuccino Blended Crme - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

I had the worst experience at this Starbucks this morning, and I cannot stop thinking about it. I went through the drive through at 6am (still dark), and was the only one there. As I turned around the drive thru corner and approached the window. I noticed movement below the window and I realized there were two very large RATS eating fallen food. I told the guy at the window, and he said he has seen them around the dumpster before. I thought OMG this is a Starbucks, and they just "deal" with the rats?!?! Then I thought OMG we have rats this huge in our area?!?! I stopped nearly every morning. I have no desire to return after this experience! read more

Such a helpful and friendly bunch that took care of my 12 drink order in short order correctly with a smile! Way to go ladies!

When the drive through gets busy the in store service is generally abysmal. Today my wife's personal travel cup got lost in their assembly line somehow and then re appeared. Our sandwiches took forever to come out. Our unhappy looking barista seemed particularly unhappy when i mentioned she forgot the personal cup discount and therefore the rewards that come with it. "ill have to do the whole thing over" was her comment. She then incorrectly told me the rewards would post anyway. It didnt. Im not sure if she just lied or is ignorant of their system. Clearly not a happy barista. The combination of poor service and unpleasant attitude made for a less than ideal visit. The coffee is good-you sure dont go there for their service. read more

Starbucks is Starbucks, but this is a particularly large, comfortable store on the north end of Bellingham. There's also a fabulous view of Mount Baker from here on a clear day. I don't get up here that often, but when I have, I've found the baristas to be friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. While that is a standard every Starbucks hopes to maintain, I've never been disappointed here! read more

Best staff ever! I work at the airport and anytime I go to this Starbucks they are friendly, drinks are delicious and they make me feel really welcome. Just the other day I had a very pleasant encounter with an employee. I wish I got his name. I'll find it out and post. Best service ever. During Covid right now it's important for all of us to be supportive even if it's a hello or a stay safe comment or a compliment. Anything and this employee did just that. Thank you. read more

I received a gift card so I went in to use it. The lady at the counter was very short with me, it seemed me taking a few minutes to look at the pastries was irritating to her. When asked if I was going to order a drink I said no (i don't like their coffee) I think this is what cut her tolerance for me down. I didn't even feel comfortable enough to ask questions. This visit just solidified one of the reasons I do not patron Starbucks. read more

Starbucks - Store front - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bellingham, Washington

Went to the drive thru today (1/4/2023) around 630am and the drive thru was closed. Tried to go inside and the doors were locked and there was at least 2 employees inside working but all they did was stared at me. If you are going to be closed down you could of at least put a sign at the drive thru and on the front door. read more

I was waiting in line in the store. The employee came up and said sorry you need to leave. We are under staffed and want to close. Instead of making me the last customer I had to leave. Terrible service. Yes the drive through was open. But if you are closing you manage the door and take care of existing customers read more

This Starbucks was a favorite daily destination when bicycling. Pre pandemic the staff were almost like family. All of the regular baristas that were there are now gone and it is mostly younger people who are not as jovial as the past employees. They are friendly but somewhat artificial and I have been unable to make a worthwhile connection with them. Hence, I rarely stop there now. read more

I'm a night shift nurse who needs a hit of caffeine in order to stay alive and keep people safe. Unfortunately, this Starbucks, which is closest to me, has the slowwwwwwest service I've ever encountered. On multiple occasions around 6:30pm, I have waited 20 minutes in their drive-thru behind 4 cars when I could not get out because a car had pulled in behind me. When I've abandoned the drive-thru and gone inside, it's the same mind-numbing snail pace. People have told me about having similar issues here, noting that they have stopped going there entirely and are instead going to the smaller (dare I say better...?) coffee shops nearby. Guess I'll be doing the same.... read more

I'm releasing this information about this SB location because I'm confident no one will read this. It's Saturday night and this place has just the right amount of buzz, seating and energy to keep a student arduously going! The layout of this location is very spacious, with sever tables (round and square), not fixed, as well as several couches and leather seats. I really like this location because the parking is abundant and the seating is plentiful. Thanks again SB for being there when I need a place to study without the conundrum of a bustling house. read more

This is a nice Starbucks location. Plenty of seating inside. The service is always very quick. Most if the time I just go through the drive thru because I'm in a hurry. The longest I have ever waited for my coffee was two minutes! The reason it only got 4 stars was the location. The parking lot is normally full and getting in and out of the lot can be difficult when there is a lot of traffic. But other than that fast service and friendly people! read more

Huge lobby with plenty of seating. A great place to read, study or chit-chat. Also has a drive thru, so nice when it's raining or I am in a hurry. read more

Clean location, quick service and friendly staff. Drinks are made to Starbucks quality standards and the location has a large seating area and a welcoming vibe. read more

It seems silly to me to write a review of Starbucks, because... it's Starbucks! Except, this Starbucks is awesome. It's super spacious, so you don't have to worry about finding a table to sit and get some work done. Aside from that, this starbucks location has some of the friendliest staff I've ever encountered. They always have a smile, they take the time to chit chat with you, despite being super busy.. and they genuinely are nice people. I order a Berry Hibiscus refresher to go along with my coffee (rather, to drink after) which takes a little longer to make, and they always make it just right, instead of rushing through it. I'm not a daily coffee drinker, but I find myself heading here when I do want a cup, over some of my previously favorite local spots. So, that says something! read more

I love this company and will go out of my way to spend my money here over any other coffee shop because of our similar values and the good things I hear about how they treat their employees. That being said, I very rarely see Starbucks employees who look miserable or who act over the top nice to mask their loathing for their job -- I'm sure they exist, but I digress. Specifically this location has the NICEST most welcoming and accommodating baristas I have ever encountered. I dont know if they can sense my sometimes-depressed vibes or what, but whenever I'm feeling bummed or just not very confident or happy, I'm always showered with compliments and super nice conversations with the baristas and it genuinely makes my day so much better. Also they make my order perfect every single time, even when I switch things up. They were actually closed for some reason randomly, a couple months ago and I literally PANICKED because I thought they had closed permanently. False alarm. All is well. This is my favorite Starbucks on the planet. Go there. Itll be your favorite too. read more

I frequent this Starbucks to drop my roommate off at work or pick her up. Now let me say having a barista roommate is amazing because they have the ability to make the best artistic crazy drinks you could think of. So I strongly recommend asking the barista what they would recommend. Ask for marshmallow syrup in your drinks! It's awesome! read more

Good location. Great staff and decent (free) parking lot.

I have liked this location for a long time due to it's relatively massive size. You can pretty much always find a place to sit. The staff is always really nice. I thought the redesign was going to make this store better, particularly having a cozy fireplace. However, the grey walls and the torturous new wood chairs corporate decided to put in make me not want to come here. And I'm kinda crushed because, like I said, this was a great place to hang out. I'm still giving this store four stars because I'm sure this stupid cane chair fad will be phased out soon. read more

Huge place. Dead at 2pm. Average friendliness of staff. Orange smoothie rocked though! Lots of campers taking up all the good spots poaching the wifi. Wait that is what I wanted to do! Lol read more

Great Starbucks to lounge around. Good service and large parking lot. I'm a huge Starbucks fan, they may not have the best coffee (in my opinion) but they score HUGE with their consistency in food and beverage, wifi and the Starbucks App. I sometimes don't carry my wallet, but I always carry my iPhone so when I need a bite or a pick up I head over to the 'Bucks' for a pick me up, warm welcome and my free wifi! read more

This Starbucks and all the others we visit in Bellingham, Wa. are exceptional. The people working the store are friendly, helpful and courteous. In fact, all the Starbucks in our travels have been a great place to rest and enjoy the company and treats. Keep it up. We visit daily at a Starbucks near us. Tammy and Lee Roberts read more

One of the friendliest groups of people I've ever met, more than happy and sincere when greeting. Amazing customer service.

Favoriteplace to go and get coffee. They serve you super fast and the customer service is excellent. Always great on the go! I will always keep my business here with this store. read more

Have been there twice for drip coffee. Worst burnt coffee in the county. If you drink drip, dont go to overpriced, no refills starbucks. And horrible for parking. The coffee at Am/pm was better. I came here recently with my friends and brought my own coffee and food. I refuse to buy anything from this company again. And now they're raising their prices again if it wasn't overpriced already read more

I was at Starbucks for about an hour. There was a particular person who I thought just made the place light up. Her name was Brittany! I hope you see this because you are an amazing human being. read more

I recommend Starbucks anytime. They have not just coffee but so much more even pastries! Everything there is good and it's very affordable and taste so good! They have stuff for a hot day and a cold rainy day! read more

Shout out to the man who helped me clean up my coffee mess when i spilled my drink all over the place. I believe his name was Garret. Very nice and helpful even when it was busy. I was given a new drink within minutes without even asking. Thank you! read more

Pulled into this Starbucks on the way to British Columbia and ordered three coffee's for me and the family. Service was great, the barista's were awesome and the coffee was delicious as always. Perfect location if your on your to BC. read more

Awesome!!!! Love it. This is one of my fav starbucks the service is always fast and friendly. Very quite atmosphere. Good place to get some work done. I love everybody who works there read more

I came to this Starbucks today, which I do on most days because this location is closest to my house. I am going to have to skip this from now on due to the VERY rude manager named Mariah here. I came in with a simple question about the pricing of my regular drink, and when I got that out of the way I ordered my drink and a tall drip coffee with cream and one sugar (I always order this when my boyfriend is with me). Everything was fine and dandy until he realized his coffee didn't have cream or sugar. Simple mistake, but it had never happened before because like I said I come here daily they know my drinks and I always say cream and sugar. Anyways, we go back into the store (ordered drive thru) and he got his cream and sugar while I waited to talk to the manager about what had happened. Mariah proceeded to give us an attitude which I had never received for politely complaining about an order before. Mind you I've worked at Starbucks and know how simple it really is. Mariah was the rudest customer service representative I've ever encountered. She talked back to me, claimed I never asked for cream or sugar and that they always put it in when asked. Sorry but excuse me???? My boyfriend also commented about how he had to sip down the coffee to add the cream and sugar and it burned his lips, and Mariah was again very rude and said "well the coffee is hot" in the snarkiest tone. I am never going to come back to this HORRIBLE Starbucks, only because of MARIAH. They also leave ALL their milk jugs on the counter which I know they do for the rush but it's an OSHA violation. read more
