    This store has the worst service. They closed the store for a meeting at 6pm - Prime Time! I just had major surgery and didn't want to wait in the long drive-thru line. I had to park far and walk, only to learn I had to walk all the way back to my car and get into the drive-thru line. Who has a team meeting at 6pm when people are coming home from work and want to get their orders?

    Honestly if I could leave 0 stars I would. This location is notorious for getting drinks wrong. Yesterday I drove to this loction because its the only nearby drive thru starbucks. I picked up an iced caramel macchiato, a hot caramel macchiato, and a black tea. I ordered these drinks with specific alternations; replace the 6 pumps of vanilla with sugar free syrup (mind you that means the same amount of pumps in a venti) and no water in the black tea. When I recieved my drinks, my black tea was watered down, the hot macchiato had 5 pumps of sugar free vanilla, and the iced macchiato had 4 pumps of sugar free vanilla. I have no idea where these two numbers came from when all I had asked for was to replace the syrup with sugar free. After reviewing my labels and discovering the mistakes, I called the location to ask for a refund. When I was on the phone the lady sounded kind and remorseful and offered to "get those drinks started for me" on the way back AND to get a refund. This is where the miscommunication started from either the shift leader or manager? I didn't ask who she was. Once I arrived to the starbucks I went inside the store rather than going through the drive thru again. When I came in, she asked me about the drinks I had ordered and put them into the computer to return the funds. Then because I was told they would "get those drinks started for me" while I was on the way there, I stood by the counter to wait for the drinks. Almost 20 minutes went by when I realized I wasn't going to get any drinks. I went back to the register and asked the lady if I was going to receive the drinks they had messed up and she told me my options were actually to get the drinks remade OR get a refund. See this startbucks looks nice inside and has a drive thru, but the service here is always terrible as they frequently get your drinks wrong and they are less accommodating than any of the other locations in Chula Vista. Even other locations in the area are not allowed to fix this locations mistakes. I hope they get better service and actually listen to their customers next time as I can see in the reviews not much of that is happeneing.

    I was deeply dissatisfied with the customer service. This specific employee named Nick was unkind. He made it very apparent he did not want to be working, take our order, or even look at us. He was taping his fingers and with an attitude said "OKAY" when I would ask him I'm loading my Starbucks app. When I asked for more ice in my drink he sighed and said OKAY with attitude again. Is disappointing to feel judged while just purchasing a drink. I will say the service was fast. There was plenty of standing room to wait for your drink.

I took a look at the menu and decided on getting the Matcha Meets Fresca and chilaquiles. The Matcha was actually pretty good. And the Chilaquiles were decent however I can tell the green salsa is not a fresh salsa. I also did not care for the chicken. It tasted like pre-cooked chicken that had been warmed up. The chips were very crispy however. I think it's a great option for folks in the area, however I would not return given it's not located in my community and can find not your preferred closer to me. There were folks in their meeting and working and although it may be a little noisy, it is a great option to work from. They also have tables outside which I found were nice and provide a more quieter space

The donuts, muffins and pastries are brought in from Mary's Donuts, which are some of the best in town. Bacon-topped maple bars too? Check.

    A weird experience but the effort is appreciated…read more Came in one weekend out of convenience, we were driving around the area and my gf highly recommended it. We parked and noticed nearly all the lights were off. The pastry cabinet was empty, the tables were taped off. But people were inside and customers were in line. Emotions and energy were low, it was quiet and dim vibes all around. We walk in and see just one man working the cashier and making the drinks. He looked puzzled, a bit lost. We get in line behind someone ordering 4+ drinks and see that this guy didn't really know how to make the drinks. He was misplacing the ingredients and wasn't fully confident operating the payment system. The back counter was cluttered with miscellaneous gadgets, appliances, and syrups. It took nearly 20 minutes for the customer in front of us to get from ordering to receiving their drinks and we just watched in slight awe. The guy was apologetic and upfront, he was trying his best in a bad situation. They made some small talk and hinted that they were closing due to supply chain disruptions in Hawaii. I feel for them and wish them well. The coffee itself was ok. Flavor was decent but somewhat unremarkable. They offer different caffeine levels, up to I think 400mg in a drink. I just got the 200mg coffee. Don't know if I just built a tolerance but I fell asleep right after. We did want a pastry but with the baked goods cabinet empty, we weren't sure what they had left to offer. There was a long sign listing everything sold out between the pastries and coffee flavors. Overall the experience was odd and left a slightly bitter emotional taste in my mouth. They've acknowledged that they weren't in the best condition at that point and I do feel unfair to judge them at their worst. If they turn it around, I'm opening to revisiting. But for now, I don't feel compelled to go out of my way for it.

The group tried the Ube Taro Brown Sugar Boba Milk, Ube Brown Sugar Boba Creme Brulee Milk, Mango Green Tea, and Strawberry Yogurt Smoothie. Individual reviews of the Ube Brown Sugar were positive with notes that the boba was overcooked and there was a little too much boba for the liquid ratio. My friend enjoyed her Mango Green Tea and I did like the Strawberry Yogurt Smoothie. It was sweet and creamy, and more on the refreshing side. I got it without boba because I had a bit of an upset stomach while I still wanted something sweet. Didn't think adding boba would help with that! So I think it was good without. The staff was also helpful and tried to make sure we were clear on some of the quirks of potential drink flavors. Would return when I'm with my friends in the area again.
