A few years ago, this Starbucks relocated from LaVista to it's current location. Having gone to it when it was on LaVista, I can say the new location is a huge upgrade. The newer location has more space which is nicely laid out to accommodate people who want to work without being in the direct line of other customers entering and exiting. In addition to the usual table/chair combos, there also some barstools near the front which are useful for enjoying your drink of choice while people watching. If you are like me and prefer just a hot cup of plain coffee, this is the location for you. They have the newer brewing stations which brew a cup of coffee on demand versus the old setup where coffee was brewed into the large pots and once empty it required time for the next pot to brew. The new setup allows me to have a cup of blonde roast regardless the time of day. The baristas are always warm and welcoming. Add to that the new brewing stations and it's conveniently located and this has become my go-to Starbucks. read more

The Lakewood Starbucks that was on La Vista moved down the street, and reopened in this sweet new spot. There is way more parking, and the space inside is awesome with lots of seating. There is not a drive thru so pull up a chair and enjoy all your Starbucks' favorites in a cozy setting. PS - I saw several of Dallas' finest policeman visit this location, and that is always a good feeling in case a Karen situation breaks out while you're enjoying your coffee. read more

Starbucks - A sweet note when I needed it! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Starbucks - Strawberry Acai and dragonfruit refresher, strawberry milk shake. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Fast, friendly, accurate service. Inside seating is still blocked off due to COVID. There are 2 restrooms but 1 is blocked off also due to COVID. As a result of the blocked seating, there's lots of space to social distance while waiting to order. The location is on the corner of a busy intersection so getting into and out of the parking lot can be tricky but it's in a great downtown area where you can park nearby and walk to Starbucks. Overall, this location is well worth the visit! read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Excellent service! Barista came over to the line and asked us what could she get started for us while we wait in line. I gave her the order and she remembered everything and all the extra stuff like almond milk, half and half, vanilla, Carmel and 2% etc. she rocked our order and we were in and out of line in no time. I enjoyed checking out their holiday mugs and gift ideas while I was waiting for my drinks. They are so cute and love the selection. Thank you for the great service. read more

Was on the way to assist with the Baylor-Tom Landry Triathlon and needed a quick bite and drink. As I started to go to a nearby fast food joint, I saw this Starbucks that I'd never been to so made a high G- Force turn into the parking space as this location did not have a drive through. The place was nearly empty and the easy going, slow moving staff was rearranging the displays and pastries. Looking around, it was a rather spacious interior with plenty of interesting /eclectic photos and knick knacks hanging on the walls. Eventually, they took our order. Our order was simple, a decaf-latte, hot chocolate and 2 cheddar & egg sandwiches to go. I had asked if they could add bacon to a bagel with cream cheese and they informed us there wasn't a way to ring that up so they couldn't. After about 5 minutes, our drinks were ready. We began drinking on the drinks while within the store as I remembered I'd never reviewed or taken pictures. A couple of minutes more and the sandwiches were ready. Once we got the sandwiches, we were on the road. Upon arrival in the staging area we spread out our feast and realized they had added a bagel with cream cheese; not ordered but we paid for. I guess I had confused them. The sandwiches were of typical Starbucks taste and high quality. The drinks were the same. The drive through next door would have been faster, cheaper but also no bagel with cream cheese and bacon. read more

That time when everyone got pepper sprayed at Starbucks Went to Starbucks on my birthday, April 17, and immediately when I walked in I had an itch in my throat. I was surprised that the barista laughed every time I coughed. I realized that everyone in the store was coughing. It dawned on me that someone must have accidentally deployed pepper spray in the building. The manager did not make an announcement to customers explaining that there was an irritant in the air. I also thought it was inappropriate that the barista was laughing about it when taking my order. read more

Jerry, at the Starbucks at Abrams and Royal is always so pleasant and friendly. He makes the best drinks too!

Staff aren't as attentive or friendly and the orders take forever to get, even during a slow time. If it's busy forget getting your drink within 30min. I got a tall coffee and I probably stood there for a good 5 minutes. There was no one there before me...the barista apologized for the wait but I'm not sure what she was doing to make me wait. I rarely come here even if I work right across the street. read more

Never are open during regular business hours. Always are closed early with no explanation. Last Sunday they closed 8 hours early

Service sucks. Was waiting for a pastry after already receiving my drink. Other people were ordering and receiving their drinks as I still waited right at the bar. At one point, they were caught up with drinks with nothing to do and still saw me standing at the bar but didn't say anything. Wasn't until I went spoke up that they said, "oh yeah we are out of cheese danishes. What else do you want?" I was trying to be patient with them but just felt like they were ignoring anyone waiting at the bar. Like why else would I be waiting at the bar and just staring at y'all work? read more

Went here 2 or 3 times while I was in town. Went through the drive thru every time. Was fast and efficient. My drinks were always right and the Baristas were friendly. Great location. read more

Starbucks - Matcha! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Usually great if not during high traffic times. Hard working employees. Management needs to staff up rush time so employees can manage production. Management needs to turn OFF mobile orders at a certain threshold of volume. I waited 40 minutes today, had to abandon my order to get to work. At 7am they CAN handle a mobile order, at 8am NO NO no. The scheduling manager needs to work 7.30 to 9.30. Terrible to do this to customers and employees. Scheduling manager is setting up to FAIL. read more

I honestly can't say I have too much experience with this Starbucks because I was only here to grab a red velvet cake (I had Star points that were about to expire!). However, a big downside is that there is very limited parking, which is located directly off the street. So it was a little stressful parking when there was traffic behind me. But the service was quick and friendly! read more

I ordered a grande white chocolate mocha and I forgot to mention no whip cream. I asked Taylor that I forgot to say that. Saying nothing, she grabbed my cup and scooped 3 thirds of it full of whip cream. And handed me back the cup stating, "here you go". Something about that rubbed me wrong. The guy who took my order, David, was pretty chill, though. read more

Every time I come to this store they are out of coffee ! Fascinating to me how a coffee shop runs out of coffee and have you wait 15+ min for black coffee in the best case scenario ... today I waited about 20 min , seems they lost my order or forgot about it so I decided to leave .I actually don't blame them.. I did blame myself for coming to this place. read more

be prepared to overpay for the wrong orders. i've come here 5 times, and all 5 times the orders have been wrong, then when u try to have it corrected, you're met with attitude. do yourself a favor and go elsewhere read more

This is the best Starbucks in Dallas in my experience. I work on the go, so I frequent many. The staff is friendly, remember my name, and make me feel welcome. I ENJOY coming here. Ted, the manager, and his crew are AWESOME. read more

Apparently this place is getting worse. Just sent my husband in to pick something up for me and they proceeded to make fun of his west Texas accent and made him repeat the order three time just to hear him say it again. Here's news Lakewood Starbucks: You make coffee. My husband flies jets. He's not a fucking idiot just because he can't pronounce the names of your pretentious coffee. I know it's a hop, but go to the other side of the lake to the Casa Linda location. They are nice there and they won't behave like a bunch of dicks. read more

Patio is cool too hang out w-friends. I like this place because they are pet-friendly. They even have water bowls set outside for the four-legged customer. read more

Starbucks - cozy outdoor patio - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Starbucks is a Starbucks is a Starbucks. Yes, they're all the same. But, this one has a lil' bit of a twist to it. I suppose it's the fact that Lakewood is such a fun area. The baristas are really friendly, really. But, it's been my experience that you have to go a few times before they really start being nice, you know, offering that legendary service. It doesn't have much outdoor seating, but it's pretty chill. The inside is rad, I really like the high ceiling. One negative: it's not always the cleanest store. read more

This has got to be the most efficient staff at a Starbucks that I've ever seen. If the line is out the door don't be discouraged these people that work here actually move their ass! Great location and awesome patio. read more

It makes me sad to write this as this use to be my favorite Starbucks to regularly visit. Something has slowly happened over the last two months and it's not good. The baraistas are slow, grumpy, messy and sloppy. The attention given to app orders greatly outweighs the in store patrons. My same order, every time, is a simple dopio shot (the easiest thing to make). It use to be I'd walk-in, order and boom the best barista in the world would have it ready before I actually left the register. Today: it took 16 minutes to get my double shot!!!! Seriously?!?! And my cup is covered in spilled milk and crap. So sad....this place is on a terrible down hill slide. read more

The staff is too nice for me to care how often my order is incorrect. Everyone here is friendly. Get rid of the hobo occupying the comfortable seating for hours on the daily. read more

I would not recommend this Starbucks! I drove and drove for this specific Starbucks because I knew it was a hidden gem and hopefully it would not be too busy so that I can get some work done. And much to my surprise it was closed early at 3PM on a Saturday, per the mangled sign on the door. I drove up around 7:30 PM when the hours are clearly stated to be closed at 10 PM on their website and on yelp and Google. 1 star is being kind. read more

This is a pretty standard Starbucks both in the product and the atmosphere. I come during off hours since I'm a student, and the the staff are always kind and welcoming, which I appreciate. I have seen a bit of variation in this attitude during busier times though. The biggest issue here is the size in relation to the popularity of this place. Indoor seating is often full, which can make it difficult to sit inside and relax or work during peak hours. This is better in cooler months when outside is more of an option. Parking is also a bit precarious, so be aware that backing out can be a bit tricky. Overall, this is your standard Starbucks. read more

I called the store once I made it to my office. I wanted to speak with a manager to explain why I was canceling my order for Thursday. I worked in customer service for 8 years, so I always want to provide feedback to managers whether it be good or bad. When I called the store a manager was not available. However, I did speak with one of the ladies that was at the counter when I went to pick up my order. I explained to her that the "apology" I received, when I had informed them that my order had been late two of the three days, was not sincere at all. Second, there was no sense of urgency in getting my incredibly tardy order ready. From the time I walked in to pick it up, to the time I walked out the door 20 minutes had passed. Recovery of a mistake that was made is key. A proper recovery can save a lot of grief. Having come from the customer service industry I realize people make mistakes, and that's why I always give people a chance to correct it. The woman on the phone began apologizing, sincerely this time, and comped my coffee for the next morning after I told her I was canceling the order. I did not care about the free coffee as my company was paying for it. All I cared about was whether it would be on time. I asked her three times, " You are sure this will be ready on time?" I went in on Thursday to pick up my final order. It was ready. The gentleman at the counter asked me to pay and I informed him it was complimentary. He then informed me that his store just down the street had just opened and I should visit them. He was incredibly friendly and had a very personable attitude. When I made it out to my car I noticed I didn't have my creamer. I went back in, and the gentleman explained to me he had put it in the bag with tape on top so it didn't spill out which just thrilled me to the core! It is so much easier to carry travellers with the cream in a separate bag rather than those little "saddlebags" they use. Overall, I would give this location another try... only if it was on a less important meeting with less prominent people from my company. I don't want to get my butt handed to me again :) read more

This is one of the more unique Starbucks which makes sense for a neighborhood like Lakewood

Among the Starbucks chain, I'd give this one 5 stars. But when there are places like Method, Davis Street, Weekend, Ascension, etc., I can't really give it more than 3 stars. Still, this is the ideal Starbucks for me for various reasons... First, they remodeled this location within the last year or two, and I can tell. The old layout was uglier and more cramped. Now it feels spacious and has bar seating by the windows and a communal table in the middle. It's been a perfect setup for me to work on homework during an intense summer class. The music selection seems better than other Starbucks as well, with a nice mix of Elliott Smith, Neko Case, Jeff Buckley, etc. A so-so $2 iced coffee has been my go-to drink. Oh, and there seem to be some eccentric regulars...East Dallas is a trip. read more

My neighborhood joint. I have been going here for over ten years. It was recently renovated, and the new look is nice. The layout is more spacious. It seems more industrial and less cozy, but because progress. Saturday and Sunday afternoon patio is full of locals and dogs. A great hang. read more

Having lived walking distance from this Starbucks since we moved to Dallas, my husband, dog and I have been regulars here for more than four years. The baristas are super nice and very efficient, and they really get to know their regulars; at one point we were ordering the same drinks so frequently that they knew what we wanted as soon as one of us walked in. I honestly avoid all other Starbucks locations, simply because they just seem way more corporate than this one. This location really feels like a neighborhood coffee shop. We've met a lot of neighborhood folks just sitting outside with our dog on weekends. This Starbucks is VERY dog-friendly and there are often water bowls left out for the pups; otherwise they are happy to fill up a cup with water for your doggie upon request. read more

This is a funny location. It's difficult to find parking and if you do, it's trouble getting back out. The roads nearby are just so busy! There's a teeny tiny patio area at this location. It maybe had one table and a few chairs. There is an old mural around the patio area that is discolored and could stand to be repainted. Inside looks pretty standard. The couple in front of me was having difficulty deciding what they wanted and one of the other employees was happy to take my order. read more

Since this Starbucks is walking distance to my house, we go every weekend. The staff is hit or miss. Some workers are so nice and genuine, while others do not seem like they know what they are doing. They need to learnt the product: aka cold brew coffee is more expensive than iced coffee...which I was overcharged when this was miscommunicated to me last weekend. It is the little things, like knowing my name after being a customer for nearly two years on a bi-weekly basis...which has STILL not happened. Finally, the usual register guy said to me "what's your name again? We were told we need to leant our customers names". That did not make me feel very special, especially after I waited for this long for someone to know my order & name without asking. Only in the movies, I guess. read more

I have been coming to this location for years, and now I live within walking distance of it. I love their patio when the weather is nice, and still sit out there early morning in the summer too. My dogs feel right at home, as I would have to say the most dog friendly Starbucks I know of in DFW. My drinks are always right, they remember your name, it's a diverse area with diverse regulars, an easy location to make friends, have even stumbled into some business enjoying my morning coffee. They make it easy to work with their strong signal free WiFi, and actual power outlets OUTSIDE which is hard to find at many of the newer Starbucks. read more

Folks, this is Starbucks. The products and methods for making said products have been streamlined to a near exact science. Get whatever beverage suites your fancy and enjoy! You come to this particular Starbucks to eavesdrop. That's right. No shame from me. Conversations and opinions overheard at this location are golden. I recommend taking a notebook if journaling is your thang. Best unexpected entertainment for a slow/procrastinating day. To keep things lively, please try to provide as many interesting conversations possible to keep the eaves worth dropping. What goes around comes around ehh? read more

I have never actually ordered from this Starbucks so my review isn't based upon their drinks or food. I meet at this Starbucks for my JLD Small Group meetings. It is a fairly small Starbucks but they do have a huge table (seats about 10) in the middle that you can reserve. So if you're looking for a place to hold a study group session, this would be a great place! read more

This is a great location. It's very chill and organized. Friendly staff. Not like the one in Irving in MacArthur.

I'm with Sarah Y. on this one. Average establishment in an incredibly awkward location. Parking in front is at your own risk as getting out against traffic can be a bit of a bear. The interior isn't quite big enough to accommodate the line that forms in the morning, and there's not really anywhere to stand to wait on your order. The food and drink are on par with any other Starbucks, and the staff is super friendly, but the awkwardness of parking and standing around waiting is enough to make this just A-OK for me. read more

I love this location! Down the street from where I live, everyone is super friendly and they know me by name! It's my morning delight. My stop every morning to help me start my day! I go in the early morning so I never get traffic. It's Lakewood! come with plenty of time! read more
