Closest coffee option next to Kaiser hospital made this an easy stop for us. Service was nice, even when lines are long they move along well and our order was correct and made well each time. While not my favorite coffee place and I prefer local and independently owned shops, this hit the spot and delivered just what we needed at the time read more

I have to say by far this is one of the best Starbucks I have been to. They might be shortstaffed time to time. But they still get your order done in time. I love the outdoor seating area very nice!! If you're ever out in Irvine by Quail Hill Plaza. Check out the Starbucks you won't be disappointed. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

This is my favorite Starbucks location in Irvine! (I swear the Alton one hates me for some reason and always gives me a hard time, and the Crossroads one is busy because of the high school kids). Lines are pretty long in the morning during the morning rush/work hours, and the line doesn't move as fast as I want to, but any other time I come, their customer service is great. The reason why I like this location is because they make my drink perfectly without giving me any hassle :P I've never had a bad drink here! They're also super friendly, and chat with you if they're not too busy. Individual tables are a little small and large/community tables are in the middle of the Starbucks! Lots of outdoor seating outside :) read more

Starbucks - Does this not look amazing?! Caramel brûlée lattE! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

Very cool little Starbucks located right off of the 405 at exit 3. I do quite a bit of business in the area and frequent this establishment often. I even manage to hit this location up when on the road from Los Angeles to San Diego. What I dig about this location it is literally right off of the freeway and located in a large shopping center which includes several banks, restaurants, yoga studio's, gas station, CVS & a Supermarket. This location is always clean and always smells clean but it is a little too small for my overall liking. If you are going to hit up this location on the weekend you better come early to secure a seat. Just like any Starbucks this one is no different people flock, secure their seat and hold onto it. There is outdoor seating available which is nice when the weather is manageable. As for the service here I have gone in when there was only 1-2 people ahead of me and the line moved quickly. Other times I have visited and had the same amount of people in front of me and had to wait an extended period of time for my drink. I have shown up to this location later in the day and walked n to find a line of 10+ people and simply walked out. I dig this location when it is empty but when there is a line I try and avoid it. I will continue to visit this location when I am in the area for business. I frequent this location to get me some Starbucks and enjoy a meal and do a little shopping all within walking distance of each other. I support this locations dedication to supporting local activities and community events by allowing patrons to post flyers onto their bulletin board. The parking lot for the Quail Hill Shopping Center in which this Starbucks is located in is the size of several football fields. No matter the time of day or year you visit you will always be able to secure parking. Just be on the lookout for the bicyclists and their silly clothing zooming through the parking lot=) read more

This Starbucks is the slowest Starbucks I've ever been to! Literally there is no sense of people need to get to their day. A simple food order which one isn't even heated up takes over 10 minutes, nearly 15!! read more

Who doesn't love Starbucks? This one has plenty of room and a friendly set of staff! read more

This is another one of those busy Starbucks all week long. Maybe because of its central location or close proximity to other restaurants, whatever it is, it as good location to work or study here. Like all other Starbucks they updated the tables. Not my preference where I share the table with others but when you're left with no choice you take it for what it is and make the BEST of it, right? read more

Standard Starbucks affair, decent selection of my kids favorites (cake cake pops and artisan sandwiches which are often in low supply), decent cold sandwiches by lunchtime, baristas are usually efficient. The wait times can be quite long on weekends and mornings (more than other bux I frequent). Plan an extra 10 minutes on those days. Milk is often out at the front on weekends too. Decent tables inside (particularly the long table), not much in the way of comfortable seating. Outside options which are nice including couches and tables. Wifi seems slower than at other bux. I personally can't use this Starbucks for work. read more

Starbucks - peppermint white mocha and peppermint cake pop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

They will take your money! corporate sent a welcome back message, so I loaded 25 dollars on my app ready to support the reopening. .. inside it is take out only, ok.. but the restroom is not open to patrons!! No service to customers so I told them "no restroom, no customer" If a business accepts a regular price for an item, they owe the customer at least a minimum low bar level of service... you will not find that at Starbucks. read more

Amazing coffee! Amazing service! Try the pink drink. Hunter is the best! It told me to keep writing the review so again amazing Starbucks amazing service. read more

This place is ALWAYS hopping and busy, but the baristas here always work fast and get our orders right. There was one time when I my name was labeled as "Zhang" instead of "John" (is that racist? lol) but other than that, nothing really to report! Definitely don't come here expecting to easily find a seat to sit down if it's finals season though, there's usually a lot of students here studying. read more

I frequent this Starbucks quite a bit... I suppose I should remember to check in. But at 6am, I need the caffeine to remind me to function. I typically like this location and the baristas are always nice, but they are super inconsistent. I hate the fact that I can be the only one in line, but I have to wait behind the many app orders. I'm talking a 15 minute wait with not a single other customer waiting, but TONS of app orders being processed. There has to be a better way. I'm not the app order kind of customer. I have too many special requests or else I'd just skip the line and do the same. It aslo sucks when my drink isn't right after I've waited 15 minutes just to get it. Let's face it.. I'm gonna keep coming to this location, because it's close to work. But in all honesty if I had another option close enough and with a drive thru I'd probably go there. Nice girl at the front remembers me which is cool. But other than that, This is just a regular plain ol local bux. Don't hate it. Don't love it. read more

I just came here to shop for a souvenir for someone. There was no one in line and very few people sitting around, so the transaction went quickly. Not surprisingly, this location is a PokéStop, and there are plenty of them in this plaza. read more

I live really close to this location. It has been disappointing in their service, the last 2 times I have gone there. The first disappointing experience was when, I had my app loaded, ready to pay. I had about $68.00 on my Starbucks card. Before I scanned I could see my $68.00 . When I went I scanned it , I was told I had no money on my card! I told the cashier what had happened. Thinking she may offer a suggestion. No, she passed right over me to the next person. I did find it again. But, that is not customary service for any Starbucks I have been to. Next time, I was driving to LA and decided to do a mobile order for 1 drink. When I placed the order, it said 1-4 minutes. Perfect! I waited 16 minutes ! There were people coming in and ordering at the counter while I waited who got their order before me!! I'm done! read more

5 STARS Came in to this Starbucks with a large order of food and drinks. There were three guys working and they work well together. One took my order, the second one made the drinks and the third took care of my food/bakery goods. I was in and out in 10 mins! Thanks Anthony, Timothy and Charlie! You guys were awesome this morning! My manager said they've really improved on their service since they got a new manager. And I agree! Definitely recommend this Starbucks for their fast and friendly service. And no complaints from my team. All drinks and food were on point! read more

Recently moved back to Irvine and this is my local coffee shop. The staff are friendly and always willing to accommodate special requests. They can get busy at times so highly recommend you use the app to place your order. read more

If I could I'd give 3 1/2 stars... Pretty standard Starbucks. Walking distance from home and close to work makes this my usual place. Lots of seating inside and out. Baristas are always cordial and willing to fix orders if they aren't up to taste (which tends to be often, due to inconsistency). -1 star This might sound petty, but it's always FREEZING in here. -1/2 star Like unnaturally cold, I rarely have to bring sweaters to places, but I always do here. It makes it difficult to sit and focus on work. I often buy multiple items throughout my stay, so I'm not just sucking up WiFi use without being a good patron, so if the thermostat could just be raised to a comfortable degree, I would be forever grateful! read more

Customer service at this place is horrible. Walked in to place an order and the person at the register was rude, and so was the server. Go to another Starbucks nearby, not worth coming here. read more

I did not appreciate the manager, Anthony's condescending tone when attempting to have a transaction voided sine the amount did not display on my Starbucks app account. He told my friend he was unable to void the transaction and should just deal with the issue by calling the Starbucks 1800 number. It was not until I asked him to try to void the transaction by actually trying to do it. His demeanor changed and was a but condescending in his behavior and tone. He said it's voided. But then refused to provide the receipt which was weird. I asked why we can't take the copy of the receipt and he was like okay you can take it I will just print another one. It is etiquette to provide receipt for voided transaction. This manager needs to be trained to the business process for Starbucks to ensure he can offer proper customer service with Starbucks standards. He should also be given training and/or mentorship on customer service. read more

Slowest Starbucks ever. I have been here multiple times as my father in law lives up the hill. It has always taken ~10mins to get drinks when ordering in the store, but today was a new low. We mobile ordered and it took 26mins from the time I placed the order to get my drink, which was a just a blonde roast drip. They were doing is as a pour over which they had forgotten to even start when I placed the order and then they forgot about the drink over behind the register. By the time I got my drink it was lukewarm. Very annoyed. read more

I personally love Starbucks and I'm hooked on their ice coffee! It's so good I believe it should be illegal but that's a whole different story. My go to drink is an iced coffee with cinnamon dolce and easy ice. For some reason a lot of the staff not this one but other locations mixed up cinnamon dolce with coconut milk. So I can tell this is a good Starbucks since they know how to read their markings. Always clean, super fast ,and super friendly! This Starbucks gets five stars from me! read more

After years of this being my neighborhood Starbucks, I've officially thrown in the towel. The line and wait times at this location has grown out of hand over the years. The thought of dedicating 15-25 minutes to get a cup of coffee is ridiculous. If another coffee shop opened up in QH, the sheer overflow would make them very profitable. read more

I mean, it's a Starbucks. Say what you want about the franchise but I almost never have an aberrantly bad service experience at any Starbucks. Everything I expect out of a Starbucks happens consistently at this place. The Baristas are friendly. Cold Brew is better than sliced bread. The End. read more

So this particular location isn't my go to simply because there's one directly across the street from my office. This morning was different because I had to stop at albertsons which is in the same shopping center. I know from working in Irvine for about 3 years now this location can get extremely busy in the morning so I decided to order using my mobile app to avoid the line. I ordered a trenta mango black tea lemonade with extra ice, but when I get there I was informed there was no more mango syrup. Ugh! The thing about the mobile app is there's no way of knowing so the barista immediately apologized and offered my next drink on Starbucks! I didn't ask for anything nor was I expecting anything so kudos to you guys! Great customer service! read more

I stop by here on my way to work at around 7:45am and the workers have all been very quick with cashiering and the baristas have been efficient with getting the drinks. I know NIna below mentioned that the service is slow, but if you go before the 8:30am morning coffee traffic, you should be fine! The line usually goes by very quickly and the drink quality is good. As with every Sbux, the customer service is great and I'm glad this location is here for my early morning wake up call! Only con, not enough chairs to lounge about on =/ read more

Great service, friendly staff and drinks are always ready fast. Highly recommended to all.

I was really disappointed in Jake's lack of customer service. After realizing I was missing part of my order this morning, I walked over to him at the cash register to mention my missing item to him. He made it very apparent that I interrupted his conversation with his co-worker. When I told him I received the rest of my order close to 10 minutes ago, he said he'll write down my name on a cup AGAIN. As if I was the one who did something wrong. He then proceeded to suggest I talk to the baristas next time. I only went to him instead of the baristas because there was no one in line and he was just chatting away. Maybe he needs to be reminded that his job is to assist customers when they need help not just socialize with co-workers. read more

Positives: redesign makes you feel like your in your living room drinking a cup of coffee They're very friendly and customer oriented Drinks are always top notch Negatives: take very long to make orders so if you're in a rush you might need to go else where Tend to get the orders wrong at least for me, I think I've asked for iced coffee with milk and sweetener 3 or 4 times and they always make it wrong read more

I come here all the time and today was horrible. I paid cash and the kid behind the counter Gabe me no change. When I asked him for it he looked at me like I was bugging him. I went to put milk and sugar at the condiments counter and they were missing a few things. I went back to the counter, still had not received my change and asked for one if the missing items which they could not locate. Bottom like is I left without my change and a half made drink. Very disappointing and will not be back. No one will care or respond to this but wanted to vent. read more

Every saturaday & sunday morning before lessons and a day of golf, my brother has to come here for his mocha (somethingsomething) fix. And 1 out of every 3 visits, something gets screwed up. He gets REALLY pissed off when they fuck up something. ESPECIALLY, when it take a longlonglonglong time to get. Once he was SO mad because it took damn near 20 minutes to recieve his drinks and they made it all wrong. He just returned the drinks and got a refund. After that we went to Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. Haha! For some reasons, he keeps returning here. I guess one can keep hoping. I just get the SMALL coffee. No, not the "tall". Tall means that there is something small to compare it to, right? They can't screw that up, right? ? I just get the regular coffee. They can't screw that up, right? read more

Yes, sometimes in the morning the line can be long, but it's a coffee shop. What makes this place so great is its staff. No matter how busy, early, late it is everyone is always smiling and nice. This morning when I was there my phone had died and when I asked for one of the Chargers they told me all of them were currently in use, but they had some for sale. I told them I was ok, and they apologized for the inconvenience. Less than two minutes later the manager came over, opened one of the Chargers for sale and let me use it to. Barge my dead phone. This kindness and putting their customers first is why I always choose this Starbucks over others. read more
