This Starbucks is just like any other ordinary Starbucks. The tables are nice and the employees are kind. My hot caramel macchiato with soy milk tastes about right and is extra hot which I like. There if free wifi available thanks to google. The only thing I don't like is the parking. Not sure if it's the construction but parking is about a minute's walk away. read more

Starbucks - Big area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buena Park, California

The WiFi doesn't connect. This explains why all the seats with plenty of outlets are always empty. If you plan on working here relying on internet, don't come here. It's a shame because the place looks new and recently renovated. read more

Idk why it's so hard to make a drink no whip when the label says no whip, and why it's so difficult to scrape off every bit of whip when removing the whip from the drink?? No whip means 0% whip I don't want your crusty layer of mistake?? Otherwise they're fine I guess there's a nice study table w outlets read more

I went to the Starbucks here after getting Porto's. Everything was going pretty normally, and the cashier was nice. I ordered four drinks, including a coffee. I went to the condiments area to add to my coffee. There was a white red-head with a bun up working the morning shift who was working behind the counter. The creamer was empty and I asked her to get a new one. She gave me a new one and I said thank you, but she didn't respond. Afterwards, I asked her for raw sugar. She pointed out "the raw sugar is right here." I responded, "Oh sorry I didn't see it." No response. Once she was behind the counter I told her once again, "Thank you very much." She did not respond at all and ignored me. She had this mad face the whole time I was around her. Everything was great, until she came around. I gave it 3 stars for: +3 on Drinks and Customer Service (other than the woman stated above) -2 for the White Red Head P.S. I attached an image showing the time stamp I purchased my drinks. (If you have the app and are wondering why mine looks odd, I blocked out the tip area) read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buena Park, California

Bad customer service and they were out of almost everything. I waited almost 15 min for my drinks inside .

I went to the Starbucks in Buena Park on Beach and the 91 Freeway for the first time. The customer service was truly outstanding. A big SHOUT out to Matthew, Annika and Jesse. My order was confusing but the service made it so easy and just how I wanted it made. Great Job! read more

worse service, everrr, nasty coffeee, and they take their sweet time! i would give them a 0 if i could

For those that are tired of Starbucks in Fullerton and need a change of scenery. - Huge parking. I get a little suspicious when we come on Friday nights because their isn't too much lighting. xD. A good walk to the starbucks - Next to MediEvil times and the Wax Museum. Just cool to pass by - We can usually find a spot to study. Closes not too late around 1030pm. - Only a few seats have the outlet. the 4 chair table. Fight for it! haha - Free newspapers at the end of the night. - Sometimes we see the asian gamer take up the outlet! GRR! - Afterwards, go to the Denny's next to 91 for an all-nighter. read more

My favorite Starbucks of all time. Came here everyday during Summer School studying 8 hours straight everyday. In fact, I'm writing this review at this Starbucks right now. Katella & Knotts Starbucks Wi-Fi was really slow when I only saw 2 people with laptops and 2 person with Smartphone. But here Internet is smooth and fast as it can get :) I was here since 4:30PM doing homework and watching a movie on Netflix. "Did you know?" Introvert people needs quiet place to concentrate, but Extrovert people may concentrate better being surrounded by people and some noises. I'm an Extrovert and I can concentrate on my work so much better at noisy Starbucks! :) read more

I ordered a drink and it wasn't made right so I came back through the drive- thru and Sam at the window was very nice and helpful about it she had my drink made and it was perfect! Vanilla latte iced with coconut milk is my jam! read more

Service:4stars Location:3 stars Havent been in this location since undergrad (4 yrs ago). I remember I used to go late starbucks run with friends and thought this location is pretty big compared to most starbucks and nice for studying IF NOT crowded. Three large rectangular tables and couple more smaller round and square desks. I went earlier (Saturday) which is probably one of the not-so good days to study here. Service was good. Very nice baristas that I encountered. They are friendly & kudos for dealing with all of the customers in the store! I honestly admire them b/c ive stayed at this starbucks today for some quite time to study and Ive encountered interesting customers in one day (that require extreme patience to deal with). The downside is the location: 1) Its VERY busy. A lot of influx of people (old, youths, no stink, and very stinky ones). Various group of people chatting, studying, watching... and maybe "living" there? There was a customer who literally brought their own foldable chair, own coffeegrounds and snacks. So if your planning to study, bring good earphones/plugs cos it can be distracting. 2) Bathroom lines CAN BE LONG! Expect medieval times and pirates customers from across forming a line for the restroom each show. Bathroom at times can be dirty, but the baristas try their best to clean which I know is hard to clean all times. 3) Parking is HUGE, but note that customers from Medieval Times (maybe pirates too) park there during show hours so if youre unlucky you will need to be walking ~1/4 of a mile. Haha Overall, i personally experienced good service for my drinks, but i would prepare for the consequences if your purpose is to study as this starbucks is very busy. read more

This is just one of the many many Starbucks stores that I visit in and around Orange County, and as I can't find a Yelp listing for the particular one by my place, I will write a review on this one (I come to this branch often, as well). Please be advised that this review may or may not be tainted by my experiences at other Starbucks locations. I'm just too lazy to individually review each one I've ever been to. First and foremost, I have to say that I'm not much of a coffee drinker. Back in high school, my dad gave me some lecture about Starbucks. DAD: Don't go to Starbucks! ME: Why not? DAD: Starbucks sells drugs! ME: What the hell are you talking about? DAD: Haven't you noticed? ME: Noticed what?! DAD: Once a person starts going to Starbucks, they will never drink other coffee! It's addicting! They must put something in their coffee! It's like pho! The cilantro makes people into pho addicts! =_____=;; Anyways, more out of rebellion than anything (I was quite a brat), I began to frequent Starbucks, brandishing their cheap cardboard cups at home whenever my dad was around. Addicting, indeed! My forays into the coffee world were brief and unsatisfactory. I don't think I have a coffee-loving gene in my body. However, I LOVE drinking tea. I think I drink tea instead of water most of the time. At Starbucks, my all-time favorite drink is the iced green tea with no water/sweetner. It's probably my signature drink. I rarely get coffees (probably only when it's really really cold outside... and even then, I prefer the apple cider). The drinks are great. Even though I don't enjoy drinking coffee in general, Starbucks serves a pretty mean cup of whatever concoction I choose to try. Granted, I'm not a coffee connoisseur, so perhaps my judgment counts for nothing. Who knows? The food, on the other hand, I can totally give an informed review on. THE FOOD IS GRODY. Their bakery items are almost always stale and dry (especially their scones.. blech!), and their breakfast food items are equally yucky. I'd prefer to go to McDonald's, thanks. However, their cold sandwiches are not that bad. I wouldn't pay for them (I have friends that work at every STBX across the county, so I get my sandwiches for free), but the taste is alright. My favorite is the turkey sandwich, the one with the stuffing in it. I mostly wanted to review Starbucks because I wanted to complain about the service. If any of you have ever been to a drive-thru STBX, you know exactly what I'm talking about. It's SO SLOW. I am wary of drive-thru STBXs in general because I've had so many bad experiences, but I'm flat-out too lazy to go inside and order if I can help it. So despite bad experience after bad experience, I keep going back, hoping for the best. Most of the time, my hopes are dashed. This particular STBX and the one on Brookhurst and Crescent are HORRIBLE. Once, I waited over 20 minutes (I was STUCK between two cars so I couldn't even pull out) to get my drink (how hard is it to dump some PREMADE tea into a cup, top it off with ice, and snap a lid on it?!), and there was only ONE CAR in front of me. I don't know... *shaking head in disgust* In-store, there's the same problem. The workers are often so busy messing around with each other that they just leave their customers unattended. I've had to throw many a death-glare at the various employees, telepathically trying to convey the message: "STOP MESSING AROUND and get started on my drink, you dumbass!" I am a patient person. I am a nice person. But many a times, I've had to count to ten to calm myself down. I don't like causing scenes, you see. So now, when I see a rowdy, dumb teenager somewhere, I always think to myself, "You should look for a career at STBX. A perfect fit." I've also come to tout the words, "What did I expect? It's freaking STBX," about ten times a day. Maybe my dad was right. Maybe STBX does add some secret ingredient to their drinks that makes them addictive. If it was any other chain store, I wouldn't even bother going back after the third consecutive horrible experience. I've had horrible experiences pretty regularly for the past few YEARS, yet I can't seem to give up my precious iced green tea with no water/sweetner. I should've listened to my dad. I shouldn't have started to begin with. Now I need rehab. read more

Fix your wifi Its been off since last year A staff said its getting fixed but nope Stop procrastinating and fix it as it is the sbux policy read more

Try this location and order a frappe. it came out runny with no ice. she offered to remake it which I really appreciated. However I take a sip after I left and it tasteless! Just ice and water! Wonder if she's upset that she has to remake the drink oh well got to stop at my usual location for my yummy frappe. Lesson learned-not this location anymore. read more

I am so damn sick of these Starbuck biristas telling me why my drink is this or that when I know damn well how it should be.

Standard Starbucks - I'm not sure why the reviews say their customer service is lacking since they were very friendly to me! The only downside to this location is that since it's so busy and definitely crowded- you may not be able to sit inside the cafe; you may have to sit outside even when it's humid (like these past days). Oh! And avoid the egg salad sandwich - totally not worth it even if the presentation is great read more

My favorite Starbucks. I go Tues/Thurs mornings (early class!) at about 9am. I love the big parking lot. I love the bikers in the front; they say good morning to me! The workers are always nice, and they're not teenagers (not that teens are bad... I'm still a teen for another 3 months). Sometimes it's fairly empty, but lately it's been pretty busy whenever I've gone in. I'm still in & out in less than 5 mins though, which is good since I'm consistently late for comparative politics. Sometimes I go to the Starbucks inside Target, since it's less out of my way than this one, but I like coming here even when I'm late :) I loveee the salted caramel frap (any of their frappaccinos are pretty good). The salted caramel latte isn't as good; the best part is licking the caramel + salt on the whipped cream, which the latte lacks. The green tea frap is also yummy. I want to try the pumpkin latte, but I'm a little scared. I wish they had samples... read more

Looks like they've added another barista to their shifts so that definitely helps move things along. Baristas here are probably the nicest ones! read more

i was greeted and helped my Tiffany the other day! she recommended me different drinks that she likes which i told her to surprise me with one and i loved! she was so helpful and nice! the rest of the staff was lovely. place was busy but my drink came out so fast. clean bathrooms and clean sitting areas! 100/10 would recommend this starbucks! :) read more

All roads eventually lead to Starbucks and this one brings out the best and brightest that Buena Park has to offer. What sets this Starbucks apart from the 5,000 other ones I've been dragged into is basically three things: (1) an eclectic mix of people.. your tourists taking in Buena Park, your students lugging laptops and wishing their coffee was beer instead, biker dudes showing off their biker gear and receding hairlines, and your average Joes like me saying WTF brought everyone here tonight? (2) decent outdoor seating almost like a runway to chew the fat, smoke it out, and/or stare at #1 above, and (3) a large parking lot that may or may not be shared with other businesses. Lots of cars just parked with people in them. I'm thinking drug deals, high school foreplay, or both. read more

I saw some people reviewing this location by saying it is a standard Starbucks... Well I have to disagree. This Starbucks is great!! I love all of the outdoor seating available, and it was pretty quiet and peaceful here. Inside there was a pretty big line, with lots of people waiting to order and also waiting for their drinks. But it is a well organized Starbucks. On the right side when you first walk in there is the line to order. The restrooms are on the far right hand side when you first enter. After you order there are tables and chairs to the left so you can sit or stand and wait for your order. Staff were all very friendly and service seemed pretty quick considering the amount of people there waiting and the orders that kept coming in. My chocolate chip frapp came out perfect! I sat outside at the tables with my dog and used the wifi to google stuff and do some research. I lived this Starbucks and will be back. read more

See all

Easy parking and service is super fast in the morning. However, I really wished it was on the other side of the street. Making the u-turn and waiting for the light takes forever. Might as well go through the drive-thru on LaPalma to save time in the morning. But if this starbucks was on the other side of the street, 5 stars. read more

I love when Starbucks location are their own and not attached to a bajillion little stores. This one is so unique, especially with it being across from medieval times and adjacent to the wax museum. (wish the museum was still running!) It's a hot spot for sure! I went there to meet up with a few girls to work on a project and getting tables can get tricky since the table with all the outlets is always bombarded with the laptop users and cell phone chargers. The baristas are so nice and they made my drink to perfection. Rare, since I'm one of those complicated drink types =p I don't come here often but when I do I'm glad I did. read more

By far my favorite Starbucks every morning for my coffee run. Lost staff is very nice and very talkative, the manager makes it all run smooth but when he is not there it's a little hectic ‍ afternoon staff is also very helpful read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buena Park, California

This starbucks rocks. I usually come to starbucks these days to study for LSAT, so my review will focus on the environment of starbucks, not the coffee or drink itself. Since I live very close to another starbucks located in Amerige town center, I always felt a little bit reluctant to visit this location. However, if you want to focus on studying for something or have essay due tomorrow, it's the place for you. Most starbucks are freezing. I mean, I don't know if starbucks intends to make the temperature low on purpose in order to make people leave quickly.. but if I happen to study in starbucks for 2-3 hours, I get cold very easily. After studying I get sick from starbucks. However, this starbucks offers mild temperature with not too strong A/C air. Also, there are not that many people coming in and out so I don't get bothered in the middle of my practice test. The music they play isn't bothersome at all. In some locations, the music is just way too loud that I can't even have a normal conversation with my friend. Their service is awesome as well. read more

As far as Starbucks goes, this one is my favorite. The cafe area is nice, the outdoor seating is great, the baristas are super friendly, and the coffee at this location actually tastes better than the coffee at just about every other Starbucks I've been to. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buena Park, California

One cashier and one barista + cold day = looong starbucks line, long starbucks wait. Waited for some friends outside of the titanic and bodies exhibit so decided to grab a "quick" drink. Line was 6-7 people deep, and with 1 barista, meant 20- minute wait for my iced pumpkin spice latte. I just saw the barista running everywhere and doing her best, but even then the orders just kept pilling on. Later she told me she was 8 months pregnant! She should not be going through that type of stressful job. read more

Starbucks - Strawberry Acai . . . - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buena Park, California

So slow - walk in to store , one register , a line of customers , i counted 8 employees but It took 10 minutes just to order my drink . :/

The service is great here. They greet you with a smile. For me there is nothing like a nicely toasted bagel with cream cheese & they deliver. The coffee is heavenly. A sip of hot creamy & a hint of sweetness from the unsweetened vanilla just makes you want to start you're day. read more

I'm not a coffee connoisseur and rarely make an appearance at coffee house now that I'm not in school studying. "Four-Bucks"....I mean Starbucks is one of the places I have gift cards for so I might as well use them. Why pay for my drink elsewhere when I need to use the never ending supply of $5 gift cards I receive each year? I have driven by this location forever! I always take Beach to get onto the 91 fwy and have always thought about stopping but never do. Finally when a friend wanted to meet for coffee, i suggested this location b/c it was between us and it was my way of finally checking it out. Came here Sunday evening around 6pm. I found that there was plenty of parking in the lot adjacent to it. Besides cars in the lot were bikers hanging out on and around their bikes. They didn't bother me, but it may be off putting for some people. As I walked up I saw there is a lot of outdoor seating. And apparently there are table designated as "smoking" tables. As I walked by one, there was a cup full of cigarette butts in water....very appetizing. If you're going to be a lung polluter at least don't add to the pollution by littering too. Gross. I went in and ordered before my friend got there. There was no line and my Iced Green Tea was ready right away. The problem I saw inside is the lack of seating. This place is deceiving from the outside. It's looks huge and spacious set in front of the Wax Museum. Not so big on the inside. There was a group of 3 people taking the only large table that could seat maybe 8. I can't remember exactly but there are only like 6 other tables in the place. And all were full. Awesome! So I went outside and cleaned up after the manner-less smokers and had a seat. Even with the weather being warm that day, it was getting cold outside and there are no heaters to be found. My friend and I became stalkers and were keeping a keen eye on the patrons inside that were leaving and b-lined it for an open table. We managed to warm up inside and the place stayed busy the whole time we were there. I don't care for the coffee, it's too bitter for me. I like the tea and the 8,000 calorie-2 bite pastries they have. But if I were paying for any of the items, I'd have to say Id probably go elsewhere. They are over priced...hence my "Four-Buck" comment. I could see coming here to study or when it's warm out and you can be comfortable sitting outside. I don't recommend coming in during bad weather....there will be no place to sit. It served it's purpose for the evening... read more

This is my favorite Starbucks, the workers there are super friendly and nice. You walk in and they greet you and smile no matter what time of that day which is really cool. If you like big Starbucks(s) and an open space for work meetings or work in general, school, studying, I would recommend this location!! read more

I am addicted to Starbucks. There is one at my school and they take all my money. Finals are coming up and I can see myself spending a ton of more money there. Anywho, I came to this Starbucks for a Lexus meet on February 16, 2009. I was up till 3 am the night before so I was in desperate need of some caffeine. It was nice hanging out with my fellow Lexus owners while soaking up the caffeine but this was unfortunately cut short when a very rude member of the staff of Medieval Times decided to come over and yell and scream at everyone to leave. She then proceeded to call Buena Park P.D. who then issued tickets to my friends who were patronizing Po Folks Restaurant. Do not go to Medieval Times as this is a reflection their attitude towards customer service. read more

THIS STARBUCKS IS NO GOOD! Bad service and bad chai latte :( it was just warm milk with no chai taste o.O. I asked the barista to give me more flavoring, but he gave me a stink eye. Really? I just wanted a good drink that has a nice chai aroma. If you're a barista, you should be able to make delish drinks. Thats your job isn't it? read more

Every time I've been there they do a great job until this afternoon. I had to stand there forever after letting them know my drink was in the wrong cup. I had to ask them a second time if they could just fix it because I had to go back to work read more

As my tip says, WORLD SLOWEST STARBUCKS EVER! They had 3 people working, 1 at the register, 1 making the orders, and the other packing something... or whatever she was doing to I guess "keep" busy. It looked like things that could have been held off until the line that was starting to go out the door was gone, but no, she continued. As we finally approached the register, we discovered why they are so slow. The cashier that takes your order also goes off to do other things between each order. My fiance ordered a hot green tea and instead of one of the other two ladies going to pour it into a cup, she went and did so while telling us to just go ahead and stay at the register. From the looks of it, this Starbucks gets pretty busy because of its location to major attractions but also because they're directly in front of the Bodies and Titanic Exhibits so you'd think they would properly staff themselves. To top things off, they have the hottest drinks known to man kind! I've never gone to a Starbucks where the hot tea is STILL too hot to hold between having 2 cups and a cup sleeve covering it. read more

Never been to a Starbucks in my life...the wife ask me for Coffee and a donut.. But being Memorial Day our local Coffee shop was close , so headed to Starbucks .. Very pleasant experience , a bit confused on what to order no regular Coffee no donuts Came home with something have no idea what I ordered but it was good !! Carlos was very polite and friendly, and great looking and I'm not even gay read more

They're doing this wierd thing where they kick everyone out of the lobby and stop taking drink orders between 12pm and 3pm whenever they fall behind in drink orders. If you want anything you have to wait in the already-crazy drive-through line that makes you a road hazard on Beach and burn gas just waiting in line. They need to change their hours. read more

SAM was awesome! Drinks were some of the best Starbies and store was BEAUTIFUL. Awesome starbucks experience

I used to come here regularly since my friends loved coffee. I on the other hand get the jitters and caffine gags if have anything larger than their small. Either way, I've always liked this location for its big parking spot and huge out door seating in beautiful socal weather. The inside is almost always super packed with people studying with their tablets or laptops hooked up to an outlet which seems to be plenty of. I also noticed that they were doing construction on the Movie Land Wax Museum on my last visit here. I wonder what will be coming in???? I believe It's been closed for a good 12+ years at least! read more
