I've been to this Starbucks many times - my most recent visit was a pleasant experience. Service was quick and friendly. While this is a smaller sized Starbucks with minimum seating, there is Target entrance attached. The drinks and food reflect the Starbucks brand - it's consistent which matters. read more

Everything is ok until the girl forgot to put my butter inside the bag and utensil. How can you eat your bagel without butter? I was disappointed. read more

Was waiting for an officer at the nearby 112th Precinct to free up so i could enter my sister apartment so my meanderings and need to re-caffinate took me here. Not quite in the adjacent Target but right next to it and with a direct entrance, this is a smaller Starbucks. Pretty crowded and noisy, however the crew worked fast and efficient so my coffee was out in a reasonable amount of time. The coffee (simple black) was no more or less the same as it is at any other Starbucks read more

It's a serviceable Starbucks. When it gets busy, it's slow like many Starbucks. The staff is friendly especially to the regulars. The food is generic food and expensive drinks. I wanted to try the iced lavender cream oat milk matcha. It's interesting but there's not as much lavender flavor as I would like but it is creamy. The matcha flavor wasn't very strong either. Added together I'm not sure it added anything to the drink. It's also $7 for a medium so I won't be trying it again. read more

Starbucks - Iced lavender cream oat milk matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

Connected to the Target store next to it this smaller location is conveniently located in case you want an iced coffee to have in hand while shopping. There is a direct entrance into the store. They have a wheelchair lift which is nice. Not much seating though. More for grab and go. Nice decor and clean here. read more

The food is tasty for any average Starbucks. The service is fast and kind. The place is sometimes a little noisy just because it's connected to Target, but when they close the door to Target it's peaceful. Sometimes they sell out of a specific food, but most of the time they don't. read more

This is really one of the worst Starbucks. I'm leaving this review after literally my 10th bad visit. The customer service is non existent, the food in the case is always moldy, and they never get the order correct. Why can't they get it together. read more

I really like coming to this Starbucks, the customer service is great. I only order teas so this review is only based on the Ice Teas which are amazing. They make they tea with love and to perfection. No matter who is working that day I continue to receive the same courtesy and not to mention my tea always taste the same or better. I have not had one bad experience here at all. They are always on point when it comes to mobile orders. Perfect once again read more

I am not a regular Starbucks customer but when I am in the mood for one of their pricy concoctions I will visit this location or one near my job. The staff has always been cool and I've never had any negative experiences here. I remember on time I wanted to try their chai tea and didn't know which one I wanted the spicy chai or Oprah chai. The barista recommended the spicy chai that I really liked and gave it to me complimentary which I loved. This will continue to be my go to spot when I am in the mood for Starbucks. read more

In dire need to seek relief from the oppressive, purgatory summer's heat, I came to this Starbucks #7217 for a cool down as the 71st Continental Avenue Starbucks only had two microscopic benches. Seating is adequate when arriving early at non-peak hours and staff is readily available to serve patrons, amid at snail speed but I was properly attended. The air conditioning is fully operational without complaint. This Starbucks #7217 is adjacent to Barnes & Noble where one can enjoy browsing books on Austin Street, Forest Hill's commercial hub to be concluded with a cold drink. It is easily accessible by MTA Subway and LIRR Forest Hills station. My fruit salad deluxe at $3.45 was my lunch for the heat drained my energy to function. Disappointingly a shortage of Chai Ice Tea, but the Ice Green Tea is suffice which enable my cool down from the oppressive, purgatory summer's heat. read more

Typical Starbucks. The bonus of this one is that it's attached to a small Target. I have yet to sit here and have a drink, I always order ahead and just come in to pick it up. I never have any issues with my drink or the wait. read more

Starbucks - The Blond Vanilla Latte... - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

Friendly little Starbucks, no complaints. Rating is in relations to other Starbucks and chain coffee places. The midnight mint mocha Frappuccino was made quickly, topped up, and as tasty as ordered. Minor thing I noticed is that they only had the long straws and not the standard ones, but it's no big deal. read more

Again, it's Starbucks. No real room for deviation of the corporate formula here. It used to be attached to the last Barnes & Noble left in Queens. Now it's attached to the Target Express that took over the lease. The employees are still the same. Still fast and cordial. The food menu is the same as any other location. There is good seating and two ways to leave the store. I have no complaints. read more

Been to this location so many times already. But haven't really paided attention to service or anything. Yelp really does change your perspective. Anyway, came in for regular ice coffee and place to enjoy my magazine. Service was really quick. I got lucky no lines but almost all the tables were taken. Got my decaffeinated carmel flavored ice coffee in no time. I got to sit in front on these high chairs since everyone else was on laptops or something. I always love that about Starbucks. So relaxed and can always do some paper or watever business you have going on. I got a front seat of the house. I got to observe everybody and say that service is pretty good. Line moves quick and pple get their drinks easily. Will be back agian read more

Starbucks - Enjoying my Carmel ice coffee with a delicious bagel from near by - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

Very nice staff. My negative observations concerns people who occupy the three small tables as home offices. I came in for breakfast but can not have a spot to eat. There should be a time limit to people sipping their coffee or water. It is I believe selfish on their part. read more

Starbucks - People spending time occupying the limited seating - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

They have lovely staff, but I've had to stop ordering from them. On two separate occasions, they got the order incredibly wrong, which is hard to rectify when doing so via Uber Eats. The first time they put soy milk in the coffee instead of 2% milk, I am deeply allergic, so my throat closed up. The second time, I ordered hot coffee and was served iced coffee. Starbucks is too expensive for mistakes, so I instead will have to request my order from another one in the area. read more

This Starbucks is adjacent to the former Barnes & Noble store (Target being opened there soon), where one can people watch on Austin Street. Plenty enough seating if you come at an off hour. Going to miss grabbing Starbucks and roaming around Barnes & Noble " You'll be missed Barnes & Noble". Other than that it's Starbucks; you know what you're gonna get. They're all the same anyway for the most part. read more

Best happy service by Blaze. He made me smile and laugh and treated me with respect. He needs a raise and people need training by him. I love this place for convenience and service. read more

Since I have a hard time concentrating at home because the amount of distractions I have around my house, I like to come to this place to do my school work. This place is relatively popular, and you always find the same loyal customers coming back. The staff is pretty friendly, especially dealing with some difficult customers. I saw one woman giving one of the baristas a hard time, because she changed her mind about her drink after she paid. The bad part about this place is the bathrooms. The toilets never seem to flush, or it's dirty, or it's out-of-order. I cannot necessarily blame the staff, because they usually only have 3 people working per time where all of them are helping with the constant lines here. They never have time to go back to clean them. I suggest management find some more employees to clean around the bathrooms and tables. Also, there's barely any seating. I suggest Starbucks buy the former Barnes & Noble space next door, and create a bigger area for themselves. There's a constant battle for seats here. One woman got upset with a blind woman for not telling her a seat was already taken by a gentleman who just ran to use the bathroom. read more

Starbucks - Need some refreshments while I work - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

Pretty regular customer, this location is pretty great. Usually really upbeat and helpful even when they're swamped with all the customers. Service is usually very quick. read more

The employees are really nice here, good customer service. Got my drinks pretty quickly.

The old location I used to go to closed unfortunately, so I need to walk a little out of my way to go here now but that's okay! They moved all the other employees from that location to this one, and ALL are always really lovely. Like really lovely all the time. Seriously, like give them raises or something hahaha. My only suggestion is making the to go items counter accessible, The workers get swamped and it can take a bit to get your drink! read more

I love the spot this starbucks is in I can sip my coffee while reading a book the staff is nice as well however my coffee isn't always right when I come here they constantly ask me my order again and make me repeat my name so it's not the best starbucks ever but it's not bad read more

I just paid six dollars for a watery cup of coffee that is basically all ice. I can go to a gas station and get a cup of ice water for free. They are supposed to be a coffee place but I couldn't taste any in my big cup of ice water. read more

Always love getting my afternoon fix at this Starbucks. It's generally quiet. There's always seats and it's usually quiet. The lines are never long and this Starbs is connected to Target which is scary but great. Staff is friendly and always willing to suggest new drinks and give honest opinions. read more

I have never been so disgusted and upset in my life there are three girls working and only two customers me and another lady they ignore me and continue to look at there phones so I said excuse me can someone help me and the girl said she will help you and continued to be on her phone her name is Sam read more

Slow AF, and the bartender (not going to shout out his government name) talks too much and is not that focused. It looks bad when your extra chatty and people are waiting in line. Other than that, regular-degular. read more

So usually Starbucks is pretty busy and employees don't have time to talk( they don't have to ) mostly they don't give a damn. I particularly found this one interesting as the employee actually had a moment to explain it to me how nitro is made and why they only give out smaller cups for nitro. It's nice when the person helping you knows what they are doing and care to explain it to you. read more

I have to say... if you run out of green tea by 9am in the morning... there's something wrong here! Step it up Starbucks! read more

When it comes to Starbucks in the NYC (and Queens, etc.) areas, I usually have pretty low expectations. Unfortunately this location, attached to B&N on Austin Street, but more-or-less functioning as a standalone store, does not give me reason to change that expectation. This particular location struggles with some of the issues many other locations do: -Poor seating plan/limited table space (maybe eight tables and three or four stools at a counter top is more than some other locations have, but the tables and working spaces are so small, that it's hard to set up your own stuff, much less share with someone else). -WiFi is painfully slow, even for a Starbucks. I never go into a Starbucks looking to stream video or do anything even moderately close, but when it takes minutes (yes, plural) to load a simple blog, then it's basically unusable. -Baristas were more interested in talking to their friends/other employees than helping their customers. After waiting several minutes with no one in front of me for a small iced coffee, I noticed the barista had put it in a hard-to-see location on the counter and made no attempt to alert me. When I asked for a straw, which she was standing right next to, she half-heartedly directed me to another table rather than handing me one. Next time I'm waiting for a friend in the area, I'll find a new spot to try and get some work done. read more

Claustrophobic. So small. A hot mess. (DIRTY) I had a bad experience with the baristas, but maybe it was an isolated incident? read more

super inconsistent baristas at this location and some are extremely cranky in the AM (???)

Called correct an issue with delivery order; the woman who answered (Samantha) was extremely rude and not helpful in resolving the issue. I told her that her attitude was unacceptable and asked for the manager, and she gave me some BS excuse that the manager wasn't there. read more

Slowest Starbucks ever. Waited over 15 minutes and my order was wrong. Don't make this a stop if you're in a rush.

I come here every once in a blue moon when me and the lady are strolling for a new place to try for lunch. The last time I was here was like 2 weeks ago but the story never changes much. Not enough space so little to no seating area always seemingly taken up by the same people watching a feature length movie on there laptop or enjoying there new book from barnes cover to cover. They really should start putting in a half hour per drink protocol to move people along. The line is never a long wait but that is not because they dont get busy there staff is just very profficient and have never been on line more than 10 minutes. I don't drink coffee but the strawberry smoothie is very good and my girlfriend has never complained about the iced coffee. If you go in the winter, Starbucks has a pretty good hot chocolate. read more

I don't think they make their drinks right. I have purchased an Iced Green Tea Lemonade here a few times. First time buying it, I said to myself, "Maybe the barista was new, maybe next time I'll have it better". I come back here to buy another Iced Green Tea Lemonade made by a different barista, and it still tasted bad. They added too much lemonade in it to the point where it's just too sour to drink. Another time I decided to order the Iced Chai Tea Latte, specifically asking for light ice in it. Well, the Barista almost filled the entire cup with ice. My mother was with me at the time, and told her to add less ice. The Barista took the drink back, but when she gave it back to me, it tasted so watered down. I wouldn't be surprised if she just removed the ice and added water in it. She was probably too lazy to add more Chai tea in it.. And lastly, half the time I order something here the baristas forget my order. Don't get me wrong, I'm a patient person. But anyone would lose patience if after paying for the drink at the register, they wait at that little counter for 20-25 minutes and never get their drink. The baristas who have forgotten my order never apologized. On the bright side, it's next to B&N Great if you purchase a book at B&N then read it at Starbucks with a drink on the side. read more

The staff is friendly always remembers my name and my drinks are always on point! Love it! It gets busy in the morning hours with is expected because there are a lot of businesses in the area.

Starbucks - Iced Peach Green Tea. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

So I came here totally not knowing what I wanted, but I liked how the shaken tea looked and I had no idea what the flavors were. A girl was working the register, her name was Sam, and she must have named every single tea (like over 20) even though I was being one of those annoying customers who needs to hear every single tea flavor and the calorie count. She did not seem annoyed at my request and she really knew everything on that menu. Super impressed with her service and the tea she made me was great!! read more
