This is my absolute favorite Starbucks! The staff is friendly , remembers my orders and treats my young son like a celebrity. Even if im on the other side of town I will go out of my way to go to this specific Starbucks. They are great at timing both in person and online orders (I have done both) and I have never spent more than 10 mins MAX in that drive through. When I was freshly postpartum I would go to get out of the house and have a little treat and they would always offer a bag to make it easier to carry my baby and my coffee. Can't say enough good things about this location. read more

Food was good service ambiance was nice my grandma loved it could use more options on drinks

Some of the reviews for this location are low and I feel for them if they had a bad experience, but was in town and needed my morning joe. Used the app to order my coffee In advance, drove up and walked in and it was ready. The staff seemed friendly, I asked for a cup of ice and an ice water. The employee was happy to get it for me, thanked me and sent me on my was, everyone said goodbye and have a great day. Great experience, no issues for me. This location has indoor seating and patio seating. Inside looks like your typical Starbucks, outside though looked more like an old western town building, I liked the vibe. Drinks are consistent with any other Starbucks, that is great to know you will always get the same taste and quality at any location. Enjoy! read more

See all

I am a regular customer, and I never have any issues. The ladies there are always nice, and yes, it is a busy location, so if it's a crazy day, then there will be a wait. You have to pay attention to the pick up time if you do a mobile order. On red cup day, it was a twenty minute wait, but that's because I didn't look at the pickup time after placing my mobile order. One time I forgot to go get my order, and when I called to tell them to give it to someone else, they gave me my order the next day no charge. Again, they're nice, but busy! read more

We were in town visiting family and needed our morning coffee... nice new location (it looks new to me anyway) with your choice of drive through or walk in. Spacious and clean inside and it looks like a good place to hang out or work for a bit. Service was good with the usual frustration of drive through orders being prioritized over walk in but that's at every Starbucks with a drive through. People were nice so no complaints about that at all. Right next to a pizza joint... so if it's lunch time get an iced whatever and go next door for a pizza. read more

They should be prioritizing their drive through lines if they are going to be open on holidays rather than prioritizing mobile orders and such, or rather, even allowing that. Why would a huge corporation grid lock their customers in a drive through line for over an hour? VERY UNSAFE read more

Friendly staff, consistent quality that you can count on, menu has all the favorites. Easy to pre-order. You can count on them being consistent. read more

Rude... unhappy staff. Worst experience...pretending like they don't see you standing by the counter after my drink was placed. Don't dare to ask for the restroom , I get you don't want to give out the code but Geesh you could have been nicer & say "yes I can open it " instead of having such a nasty attitude by the counter. maybe have more caffeine before you start work. *** triple star to the only great staff there .. yay for Brenda for having such a great vibe & customer service even before she started her shift. *** read more

Ordered both a venti and grande pumpkin spice and both were half empty. Super disappointed. read more

Starbucks - Venti Pumpkin Spice Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

Worst Starbucks. Ordered two drinks in the drive thru and two cars in front of us. One nonfat latte and an Americano as basic as it gets. Been sitting here for fifteen minutes. They took out money. Sent one drink out. Ten minutes later sent the other drink out. One person making coffee. I feel bad for the pile up of 8 cars that came after us. read more

I would not recommend coming to the Starbucks. I usually don't come to the Starbucks, but I was on this side of town and it was more convenient so I placed a mobile order for pick up and once I got there I waited for my items patiently after 10 minutes past the time, my mobile order should be ready. after being told my drink had been taken by somebody else they told me they would remake it and I said OK and they told me that they would give me a refund for the drink which was great if they actually gave me the amount that I paid for the drink, which they did not they didn't even remake my drink to what I had ordered. I understand my drink had to be remake because somebody took it on accident, but why did she refund me the incorrect amount for the original drink and then why did she not even give me the correct drink in the first place once you remade it. She gave me a smaller size than what I had originally ordered even after I continue to wait patiently after everybody else had left with their order and the store was nearly empty. read more

Came here on Friday ( 5/10/24) and I wish u was lying, but spent an HOUR in the drive through line...you heard that right, and hour. Once we made it into the window, they were just making the drinks...this occurred like at 5:20pm, so not necessary a morning rush hour per se. I will now, go across the street and go to the superior service/ drinks Dutch Bros! Bye read more

Starbucks on N Broadway: I've never had a negative experience at a Starbucks. Ever. In any town. Except in this one. Absolute worse customer service ever. And they're always out of everything. They'll charge you for it though. Then tell you they don't have it. I don't understand why this location can't get it together. They need a revamp, new management, something. So terrible. Ps. All your drinks taste like water. read more

Worst Starbucks in town . I've received wrong orders on multiple occasions at this location but today was the tip of the iceberg due to the terrible customer service I received at the window from the "manager" ,Taylor and another female who refused to give me her name . Taylor does not know a thing about customer service and only knows how to serve snotty attitude . Now I don't mind waiting , but when you make me wait only to get my drink wrong , we have an issue ...No caramel in a caramel frappe and didn't make my drink with requested Oatmilk So disappointing. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

Never going here again! Ordered 3 drinks before some people and I was being treated like a ghost, waiting. a couple people behind me got their drinks before me. WAY too focused on the drive thru! As well got treated like I was some little girl as I got many stares from multiple white girls, rolling their eyes. My drinks eventually came out after waiting 30 minutes and yet they still tasted like complete trash. read more

I want to like the location more but I noticed it is not consistent at all. It's a hit or miss and that is what I dislike as I expect things to be roughly the same when it comes to places like this. Now if I order some weird random thing that is different. The amount of syrup used is always off, the pumps of add ins seems sweeter one day over the next, and the drive thru is spotty. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

they made me feel pretty unwelcome when I walked in - I understand that you need to purchase something to use the bathroom, however 5 minutes in they started knocking on the door and persistently asking if everything was alright like I should hurry up. it made me feel really uncomfortable so I rate this place a 1 star. read more

Worst costumer service I bought 25 dollars worst of food and this cashier said she can't get a change . Tf ....

I usually stop here before I get in the road to go back home after visiting family. They are great here great location for me, service is great and always polite. They always keep it clean and order is always correct for me. read more

Absolutely ridiculous wait today in the drive through lane for only two coffees, both of which came out wrong and flavorless. Not my first substandard experience at this location, but probably my last. Not going back and paying a lot for so little. If you see a few cars waiting, steer clear. Way too long for what was only a moderate line. read more

Gave up waiting after 30 minutes. Drive-thru gets priority in this store, ordering on mobile is a waste of time. After a customer asked for something they didn't have and walked out, I heard a worker say "Sorry not sorry" in a snarky way. Never going back here. read more

Waiting an entire hour in the drive thru for an order is absurd and probably one of the most frustrating things ever. Avoid this Starbucks, they're literally slower than watching paint dry. read more

I'm not one to leave reviews, but this experience was the worst. After thirty minutes of waiting for my mobile order I was ready to leave. I asked three people and they kept telling me the haven't got to it yet. All the customers that ordered in person after I had placed my order, all got their items. There's no clear system on how to balance the drive thru, cashier and mobiles. To add insult, my order was done a long time ago. They just were too busy to check for me so now I got a cold breakfast item. read more

I think this Starbucks is still fairly new in the area. I'm in town every couple of months and this was probably just open at the end of the year. It's a good location of town since there wasn't much going on here and now that this Starbucks and Blaze Pizza are open, this makes it easier for me to get some good food and drinks and not have to drive a few miles south. There are still some growing pains here but all in all it's still decent. The girl that worked the register didn't seem super fluid with the system but that's not a problem, everybody is new at the beginning. She was brave enough to ask somebody more senior to troubleshoot the problem she was having. As previously mentioned, there's a drive-thru here so that makes it convenient. Also, there's some spots in the lot but it could get crowded, with the layout of the lot itself there's a lot of planters and undeveloped parts where it's blocked off. Overall, it wasn't terrible and it wasn't exceptional. I'll definitely be coming back in the future. read more

If I could give a 0 I would. I ordered a bacon Gouda egg sandwich and there was no bacon. I let the barista know and they were extremely rude. Made me open up the sandwich that very visibly did not have bacon in it. They made me give it back to them in order to get a new one. I had never heard of this rule, usually when mistakes are made they are let you keep whatever was incorrectly made. The service was terrible. Later once my sandwich was remade they had an extra sandwich that they let my team have. Overall I am not satisfied and would recommend going down the street if you want coffee and food. Go somewhere else. This place sucks. read more

Literally the worst Starbucks in Santa Maria. Drive to any other location and you'll be happy you did. They have zero idea how to distinguish between drive thru, in store, and mobile, and then rudely ask what you're waiting for. read more

30+ minutes for drive thru. Not right. What are you doing in the store to take that long? Is everyone in training?‍ read more

Starbucks - A whole lotta bad service - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

They are extremely slow here. It is not just the line of cars as other drive-thru's have long lines but move much faster. They do not offer any outdoor pick up for mobile orders so you have to wait in this long line for what is supposed to be a convenient pick up. Next time I will be driving across town to avoid wasting so much time here. Edit: it took me 45 minutes to get my drinks. Ridiculous read more

Please note that when other customers complain about the hour plus wait time, they are not exaggerating! On 5/12/24, I also went to this Starbucks for two drinks and was forced to wait for over a jour and a half! This is ridiculous! What is worse, they still have the audacity to ask for a tip!just ridiculous! Last time I ever visit this Starbucks! read more

I usually love this Starbucks. But the last few times they've been making mistakes. Once they gave me the wrong drink, another time they gave me the wrong drink but thankfully I caught it before I drove away. This time I ordered a iced caramel macchiato Coco cloud. Thought I'd give it a try. If this is what it is no thank you. Tastes horrible. Couldn't even drink it and had to throw it away. No offer to make it right or make a better one just handed it like that and turned their back cuz they new they were giving crap. I mean it's a venti and 1/3 is missing from the cup? Come on! read more

Starbucks - My iced Carmel coco cloud drink. It was a venti with 1/3 missing. Tasted horrible. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

This is one of the best Starbucks in Santa Maria, I loved coming here because it's less crowded, however they have decided to help spread the Corona Virus. The dinning room is closed but you can still go in and buy food. However, restrooms are closed, no way for anyone to wash their hands. Another example of fear helping to spread the virus. read more

Starbucks - Drive Thru - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

I had to write this today, as the line is always long here. And the wait is long because the line is so long. Then I see mostly one star reviews. Why don't the one star reviews stay home or go to another Starbucks. Then the line would go faster, drinks will be made better because everyone working hard will be happy. Negativity is always a cog to everything that is good. Great job, Starbucks North Broadway, Santa Maria read more

Why would any Starbucks not make a Medicine ball??? Widely requested they have all the ingredients but refused to make it! After several requests I've went on line and got the ingredients and will make it myself! I pulled into drive through asked what teas they had and after listing the ones needed I then requested a venti medicine ball the reply was we don't have the right teas!!!! Yes you do you just told me what teas you have!! Next reply was we are not making them anymore!!!! Just weird when businesses are struggling that they won't make a popular drink read more

I came today few minutes ago with my bf literally waited 40 min gave me the wrong drink which is fine we just ordered a Java Chip they took 10 min to make it and this is what I got so sad and disappointed not a Java chip frappe tasted water down read more

Starbucks - Java chip frappe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

Went by the drive thru today and it was surprisingly empty. At first I thought they closed but turns out I just beat a rush. The person who took my order was so sweet and gentle. And the crew that saw me waved and wished me a great day. Such a great experience. And it's pumpkin season. So this iced pumpkin latte with soy milk is delicious read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Maria, California

Unreal...i waited one hour. I asked some girl with blue hair to help me and she went to the back and never came back, then she came back after one hour laughing about some guy crush. Didnt help at all and was making all her coworkers do the work????? Not very nice environment for workers or customers read more

THEY WERE OUT OF EVERYTHING BY 10:50am. You're a coffee place.. how are you out of cold brew? How are you out of sweet cream, they were out of ALOT of breakfast items. Ridiculous. Stock up Starbucks! It's still morning and you're NOT ready to serve customers half of the items on the menu. Such a mood killer to end my Memorial Day weekend out here. read more

Came here 9/26/24 given luke warm coffee I discovered when I got to work. Came back 9/27 same thing but caught it at counter. Asked for hot coffee and lady said "you wanna wait we brewed that 30 minutes ago so cold now". Said you mean can't be hot if not freshly brewed "I don't control that sir -You want a pike it's hot ". Yes then she put the pike down and quickly started walking away. I asked for cream and sugar and she went and hid in kitchen while I over heard her complaining about me. Told another employee I want to talk to manager. She pointed at the manager who looked at me then went back to doing what she was doing and ignored me. I waited a few and she never came over nor did anyone ask me if they could help like get me cream and sugar. All while I am waiting at the counter/register. So I left. Not sure who is doing the hiring or training at this location but this is by far the worst Starbucks I have ever been to. Will take my business to Dutch coffee across the street as this store obviously has too many customers to take care of. The worst experience ever at a Starbucks by far. Horrible service and they all have bad attitudes. read more

I was going to church for 7pm. I got to Starbucks at 645 and left at 712. The line wasn't even long and I couldn't leave the drive thru. So upset. I didn't even order because I'd be leaving even later. read more

I have given this location so many chances! Sad to see it's the closest Starbucks to my home. They almost always mess up my drink :( I also hate that I notice right after I drive off. They can't even make the most simplest drinks right. Once they forgot my Carmel in the CARMEL macchiato :( I will just drive twice the distance to get my drink made properly. read more
