Very friendly staff in both the drive thru and walk-in. The staff almost always greets you (sometimes not so much when swamped - but that's ok). My orders are always accurate and served up I A timely manner read more

I had a fabulous experience drinking my white hot chocolate and eating my gouda/bacon/egg sandwich although I had left with a tear in my eye. I was told they have been directed NOT to make this delicious drink anymore. Help me out; order it so that it will get back on the menu! read more

Starbucks - My sadly discontinued, white hot chocolate. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lake in the Hills, Illinois

Very, very slow especially inside. For some unknown reason orders are not prepared together.

Just went to this location to order some snacks and drinks! The service was phenomenal and everyone was so nice. They made our drinks and food perfectly and in a timely manner!! 5/5 all the way read more

Starbucks - Cold brew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lake in the Hills, Illinois

I needed caffeine and Starbucks did not disappoint! The staff here were so friendly and my drink was quickly prepared.

Starbucks reviews... copy & paste... Not this time. I'm glad this one is good, because it's the closest to my house. The consistency and quality of the drinks here is high. But no worries, if it wasn't, they would make you a new one anyway. There's a nice selection of pastries and sandwiches at this location, so you're sure to find something to your taste. The service can be inconsistent, both inside and at the drive-thru. I've found better luck with the late night crew than the morning/afternoon shifts. That's another thing... love that this location is open until 11pm. Only other drawback is that seating is limited inside the building, though there's outdoor seating when it's warm enough. Bottom line, I love this Starbucks. Though not perfect, it's an above average location that you need to make your regular spot. read more

Starbucks - Drive-thru and everything! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lake in the Hills, Illinois

Horrible service. Can't even ask a question without getting a horrible attitude! If they don't like working with customers then they shouldn't be there! I definitely don't recommend this location! read more

What is up with the poor customer service at 7:00 am weekdays? The staff at 10:00 am weekdays has been wonderful in the recent past. However, for work reasons, my husband and I have been making our Starbucks run earlier this week. Yesterday we each placed our mobile order and went inside to pick up since the drive thru was busy. Employee looked annoyed that we came inside instead of going through the drive thru. So I mentioned to her that the drive thru was busy so we decided to come inside. Today we picked up our mobile orders via drive thru and a different employee looked annoyed because we had two separate orders in one vehicle. Ugh, we can't win! Why are their employees annoyed that we are using the mobile order? Isn't the purpose for the mobile order to decrease long lines and wait time? Maybe this Starbucks is under new management? If so, we may be looking for another location. Please hire back your happy employees! We miss them! read more

Not only do they always get my order right. The staff is so friendly and kind! I came here with my friends today near closing time...we each got our drinks and enjoyed the atmosphere. I wanted to take another order for my husband before I left. Unfortunately, their card machine wasn't working and I had just got done giving the second order. I didn't have cash on me, just my card. Instead of turning me away, Sonia gave me a free drink! She kept saying, "don't worry about" and "I don't want to see you walk out of here empty handed" SO SWEET OF HER! THEN!....as I was walking out, I dropped MY drink!! I tried my best to clean up my mess. And before I could even turn around to grab my husbands drink....Becky, who was working the coffee machines hands me a brand new iced vanilla cold brew. She remembered my order and also said, "don't worry about, I made you a new one!" I felt so grateful! And they did it all with the sweetest smile on their faces! Sonia and Becky truly are great assets to Starbucks! They are the perfect example of a true barista! Though there are a few Starbucks on Randall, I will always come to this one! THANK YOU BECKY AND SONIA (hope I spelled their names right) read more

hit or miss drinks? Not at this starbucks! i come to this starbucks alittle more than i would like to admit but its just so close to my home and well EVERYTHING! this location always gets my drinks correct and the staff is great. every morning you walk in you are greeted with a "GOOD MORNING!!!" (note this isnt just me getting a good morning greeting because i spend my life savings here they treat everyone the exact same) Cons: the seating area is a bit out dated there are not enough options for charging devices unless you are sitting at the counter top. they do however offer a community table that allows you to use powermat charging however idk what that is nor do i have it. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or suggestions! read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lake in the Hills, Illinois

Updated review: I always wondered why the bad reviews, then I met the manager Steve. Steve is possibly the most arrogant and rude person I have met in a service role. The issue with bad reviews is not product but service and this location has a mixture of people. IMO, they can drop Steve and improve service. Original review: Why the bad reviews? The people are nice, if a mistake is made then they fix it fast. I find that the location is great for getting in and out. If you look at the stars you would think this place is deserted but they are often packed, the drive-thru is busy, and there isn't anyone avoiding this location. Other than what I have said, it is a Starbucks. read more

I asked for a custom drink and they made it so perfect it looked better than the internet image of it and overall I really love the staff and I come here all the time on my bike with my friends read more

I've gone here for years but am moving on to the local competition, Daily Projects (great friendly service, better food, and an internet that works!). I was in this Starbucks today and tried repeatedly to get the internet, no luck. Finally, I went up to the counter to ask about and oh gee, they replied, sorry it's not working. How about a little communication up front, posted notice, etc. By the way, you work the drinks in the drive up continuously and let the dine in group wait. I was the only one in the store and waited quite long for my drink. I've noticed it repeatedly as your practice! Service staff mediocre friendliness at best. See ya! read more

When I dog walked closer to this side of Algonquin/Lake in the Hills, I'd always stop here whenever I needed a quick pick me up between my walks. Now, I only stop by when I'm in the area, or am having a one-on-one meeting with my managers ((when we can safely sit outside, that is)). I was even hired by my new managers at this location as well! I've always had a wonderful experience with the staff and I believe that's what kept me coming back, besides the wonderful iced teas and refreshers, that is! read more

i think that they answer u very quickly and understandable when u are indecisive or have a stutter and it is very peaceful and quiet over all great place of your trying to get coffee and relax for a bit read more

Lol at that sassy 40ish year old drive through worker who works the window most mornings... My order is always off (which usually isn't a big deal) but when I ask about it or ask try to confirm my order it's straight attitude & her being defensive... Like I just want the correct amount of espresso.. I don't even care about the extra stuff... & I certainly don't care that you "put it in correctly" Same lady I've heard laughing as I've pulled up to the window saying "omg... Who's drink did I just give him?!" As another customer was pulling away... Gotta love having an adult employee who has the same teenage mentality of knowing it all that seems to be circulating the service industry with the gen X kiddos getting their first jobs.. Kind of embarrassing considering some customers pay up to $7 for one customized drink to be made with some kind of pride. read more

Someone needs to teach the young staff customer service skills. Every time I have come here they sound upset and rude.

So this Starbucks is Hit and Miss with honoring Military Vets On some days, they offer a Military Discount and other days they do not Very confusing - the cashier was even a bit arrogant when I asked I told her I recieved one from this store earlier this week - she said that was impossible Not very Patriotic Starbucks - makes me want to boycott their products Anyone else have the same experience? ? read more

Recently the Dragon Drink has been light on the dragon fruit...7 littles is all I've received? These used to have so much more that I could refill w/water all day and have a bright pink drink continuously (I can't get a Starbucks easily during day). Ok, so yeah...bit picky here. Just sayin' they've changed! read more

Out of HWC but this location is way better then the one by Piggly Wiggly/Butera Location. Friendly staff. :)

During my 2 year "vacation" this was easily my favorite Starbucks to visit. The lobby closes at 11:00pm but the drive through is 24 hours. This meant coffee any time I wanted. The staff was also very nice. They'd gladly provide a free drink or a free drink coupon when things weren't going right. That would range from their computers being down to running out of soy milk. So... if you're ever craving a good latte at 2:00am and Dunkin Donuts doesn't cut it for you then head up to this Starbucks. read more

I have been to this Starbucks location several times, and unfortunately I am always disappointed. The amount of ice in each drink I purchase is absurd. I want to ask for "easy ice" but I feel as if that shouldn't even have to be an issue. It is very frustrating when I take 4 sips of my Trenta refresher, and it's all gone leaving me a ton of unnecessary ice in my cup. I've given this location many benefits of the doubt hoping to have a better experience since it is 2 minutes away from my house, but I will have to drive a little further to get a quality drink. read more

Great Starbucks location. Super friendly staff. Favorite workers: Kristen, Matt, and the bearded guy. All drinks are made right. read more

Thank you for making excellent caramel macchiatos and understanding the ice-to-espresso shot ratio in iced drinks. However, there are too many ice chunks in your frappuccinos. Your employees rock, though! =) read more

This is the best Starbucks in the entire world! I've been to millions of locations but this one is like a little slice of heaven! The baristas are so amazing and kind! They also make the best Kiwi Starfruit refresher in the world! Best thing on the menu! And especially the best store nationwide! read more

Great staff and fast service! Never disappointed when I go to this location!!! They have really kept up with the amazing atmosphere of Starbucks and truly welcomes everyone! I come here on a daily basis and would recommend this place to anyone! read more

So I have went to very Starbucks in a 20 mile radius not one of them had the zombie frappe. I'm confused it's not even Halloween. Seriously why advertise some thing they don't have product to even sell. Lame. read more

Always preferred Caribou, better coffee and overall experience. Starbucks is too arrogant and political to earn my dollars, unfortunately they are the only game in town, and they know it! read more

Standard Starbucks as their all cookie cutter facilities from corporate. Three stars on this one because I made the mistake of asking for a sleeve for my iced coffee. Holy s%£@t I was informed that sleeves are not offered with cool drinks. Excuse me, I know I'm not at Burger King so I can't have it my way but seriously I want a .05 cent sleeve as my coffee does sweat as science would have it. My so called barista was about to have an Alamo standoff over a paper sleeve! Be careful if you ask for a sleeve for a cool to iced beverage from this location. Or flip them an extra nickel for it! read more

I have become more and more disappointed with Starbucks and their baristas. They are extremely rude at this location. I wonder if they have new managers? Not sure but I frequent Starbucks daily in the morning and occasional evenings and whatever time of day, the baristas at this location are so rude & disrespectful! Very disappointed. I now make an effort to avoid this location & drive a little further down Randall road. This location is not ideal to work on homework either. There is one large table and only five small bar tables, their outlets never work & phone charges are all broken, try the Starbucks on Randall in front of target, much better location to study! read more

Today I went to Starbucks to get a double chocolate chip frap and I took a slip and I said it taste like java coffee frap and the lady that made it said I was Wrong that I was lied about it I never going back this Starbucks again the lady has a bad attitude too If you make a wrong coffee the customer should get a new one read more

People are nice. Drive through is quick!! Cappucinos and frappucinos are great. My daughter likes the cake pops too..

This starbucks is amazing! The workers are so sweet and the vibe is always welcoming. They offered me a free pastry on multiple occasions and they are delicious. 10/10 recommend this location. read more

Drinks are never right, slow service. I noticed one of the employees always yelling at her co-workers and has a terrible attitude.

Not happy with this location. Not clean. Tables are sticky floor is dirty. Crumbs everywhere. The one highchair they do have has no safety belt. Their only saving grace is the quick service. read more

I have been searching for a great starbucks for years. The coffee is the same anywhere, but the service seems to be the key factor of a great coffee spot where you continue to go to. The coffee plus the great service makes this Starbucks, in my opinion, the best one around here. Not only is the drive-thur open 24 hours, the location is great. In the middle of town you can not help but stop there after a trip to Costco or a visit to Funky Monkey. This Starbucks has a great area for outdoor seating along with a very cozy lounge inside. Going with the great decor, the service is awesome. I have never once visited this Starbucks and had a negative server. They are not like other Starbucks employees that are too hyper and very annoying, laid back and very chill these Starbucks employees tend to act. Not only are they cool and relaxed to talk to, the coffee at this Starbucks always tastes better in my opinion. Maybe it's because the servers make my day a little better, or they take the time to make the coffee correctly, whatever it is I'm glad it happens. read more

Love this location! I forgot my wallet at home and had gone through the drive thru and they ended up giving me my coffee for free! I've never gotten that before. Totally nice and made my morning so much better! read more

Employees crank up the music volume way too loud to their suiting at this location (while weaning order head-sets) blasting personal in your face and explicit music collections (Pantera, Russian Circles, Never Dead came up on my phone). What's happening to the Starbucks's brand these days where one could relax to a comforting atmosphere and not feel like their attending a heavy metal concert. Try the two locations further south on Randall Road, better managed for sure. read more

So my daughter gets an e-mail from Starbucks about their free travel cup with a purchase of a grande holiday flavor coffee. You have to be there after 2:00, order certain flavors, has to be a grande and it's only at participating Starbucks. So she clicks on the "See Complete Details" and it says "oops, sorry we're down for maintenance. Be back later." So we go over there and order three grande holiday flavored coffees. $16.00. I put $5.00 in the tip jar and move down the counter to wait for the coffee. While we're waiting I see other people with the "free" to-go cups. So I figure you get the coffee in the paper cups and they give you the "free" to-go cups empty. I get our coffee and she says hey ladies your all set have a good weekend. So I ask her about the cups and she says "oh, we decided it was gonna be just to crazy busy so we're not gonna do it. But if you want, we're selling the cups for $2.50 each if you wanna buy one." Ok, now I really don't want to come off as a jerk, but really? Come on Starbucks, you can do better than this. read more

This is the second drink in a row that was wrong at this location. Worst part about this trip is we drove from Huntley to get a caramel apple cider. Just got home took a sip and it's definitely a coffee of some sort. Seriously disappointed. Glad we wasted over $8 for two incorrect drinks. read more
