I always go to this location. Its my favorite. Workers are very nice and have great customer service.

This place is a mess! There was trash all over the floor, the drink counter was covered in spilled liquids, the bathroom was out of order (which sucks for a pregnant lady), drinks were coming over the counter incorrectly (I saw at least three people send their drinks back), and the wait was atrocious! The guy who rung me up was sweet and efficient. The guy making the drinks was kind of rude. Rude to the customers, rude to his fellow employees. He was on the case of the guy who took my order for not asking me if I wanted the iced coffee sweetened... But he DID ask me, and marked it on the cup. There were no napkins anywhere either. This place is good for people watching, but that is about it! read more

Starbucks - What a craphole!!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Studio City, California

I really like this location. When I lived closer, it was either the Burbank location next to the Bob's Big Boy (big old parking lot, plenty of seating) or here, same situation with great parking and space. Service was always friendly, and I would see some odds and ends here (from Forest Whitaker relaxing in a chair to Jason Mewes quickly making a drink run). Since my favorite Ralph's is right here, this was the choice when I needed to pull double duty, and when I found myself back here today, I can see why it's still a favorite. Even with a line, everything ran smoothly and I wanted to stay to relax but had to head out to work. This is one of those rare locations where one almost wants to grab a seat and relax all day. read more

This is my local Starbucks! I am happy that the staff members are nice and it's also walking distance for me. Be warned that this place can get really busy during peak hours. There's also plenty of tables and seats but they're almost always full. They also have patio seating too. I love using the mobile app to order my drinks so I can just pick them when they're ready once I get there. Thanks to Darrin for always having my order ready! :) It's always nice when a staff member recognizes you and knows your usual order. :) Parking can be a bit crazy since people drive fast and don't look when they back up. read more

Poor design and poor quality. The cleanliness was the one redeeming quality. As indicated by my attached photo the menu is on the right side. The queue flows left to right with a giant island in the middle of the store restricting flow. Having the menu on the far side of the line makes it difficult to figure out what I want. So I got to the front of the line my wife asked for a, "Grande' coconut milk vanilla latte blended." The cashier immediately offers a cream based Frap. I asked for "A grande' hot Americano." Cashier then proceeds to ask if I want it iced. My wife's latte' arrived with no vanilla. She returned and reminded the prep person she asked for vanilla. The prep person handed the latte' off to a team members who squirted two shots and handed it back and then asked if she wanted it reblended. From start to finish the visit was harder than it needed to be. I'm not someone who goes to Starbucks often, and won't be wanting to go to another anytime soon. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Studio City, California

So I'm going to start out with a quick disclaimer - I'm not a coffee person. There, I said it, it's out in the open. ANYWAYS, now that you've judged me and decided whether or not to read a non-coffee person's coffee shop review I will continue. So now, let me add a disclaimer to my disclaimer: I may not be the biggest fan of coffee, but I sure love slightly coffee flavored sugar milk! While I don't drink Starbucks a lot (as in every day, or even every week) this location is right across from my work and just like everyone else I do occasionally need some caffeine to pick me up. So this location is really great, although it does have a couple of minor problems. First of all, there's always a long line. Which you would think would be a problem, however, the staff at this Starbucks are really good at their jobs so the line is always moving. Which is a huge bonus. They're fast, thorough, and very, very, friendly. Which can be a huge plus. But in all seriousness this location is always packed, but the staff never seems overwhelmed, they've never messed up my drink order, and they're always very friendly. So the one downside to this location, and the only thing keeping it from a 5 star rating, is that there is very limited seating space. And the seating space there is is usually always full. So if someone wanted to sit down with a warm cup of sugar milk this is probably not the best location to do that. Most of their seating is outside and even that's usually full. Also, it's not really so much a "seating area" as it is a "walkway" so there's a lot of foot traffic and other stuff going on. So, this is a great location if you're looking for a quick in and out cup of coffee, but probably not the best if you want to relax with your morning cup of joe. Pros: Parking lot (shared with Ralph's) Very fast and efficient staff Friendly staff Cons: Very limited seating read more

I have never been to a Starbucks that was so horrible. I literally have 1 star because it is Starbucks! 1st -apparently you can not use your free drink at this location... found this to be very unstarbucks 2nd-we ordered 2 drinks with specific instructions, add 2 pumps of sweetener to one of the drinks and when we got them, we always taste our drunks before we leave, the one we added sweetener to was not sweetened. We asked the girl if she sweetened it and her answer was," no, that drink does not come with sweetener" OK I know that and that's why I ordered it with sweetener! My other drink, white chocolate mocha, tasted very strong, now I know because I drink 2 of these a day, how it is suppose to taste. I also know when it taste strong they did not pump the full pumps of sweetener. I had then make it again . 3rd- the girl and guy were both talking crap because they made my drinks wrong, I had my son with me so I ignored it, got my drinks and left. Unprofessional, not Starbucks service at all. read more

Went on a Monday morning around 930a. Place was fairly busy. Cashier was pleasant and fast with my order. Place is clean. My drink came pretty fast, about 5 mins from when I ordered it. Good place to work, also a little touristy, as it's close to Universal Studios. read more

Usually my go-to Starbucks, however, I was utterly disgusted that a few days in a row I am witnessing them giving their bathroom passcode to homeless who are MASKLESS using their bathrooms for looong times coughing up the storm and god knows what else. Why do you have a code for the bathroom if you are allowing PUBLIC use??? I will not be coming back. read more

It is Starbuck's and I only go to Starbuck's because they have what I get when I am home - it is a comfort thing. It was located nearby and I needed to be in the area for errands and I wanted to relax for a few while I regrouped and decided my next move. It is the same distance away as another lovely local "mom and pop" I like in the other direction, so if I am going for a cup of joe that is where I will venture to but SBux is always there for convenience. read more

Don't expect to use the bathroom or get coffee in under 15 minutes... even with great accessible parking lot. Standard Starbucks that gets overly crowded with a backed up line more often than not. I come here on the weekends and never have been able to get coffee to go in under 15 minutes. That being said, the orders have never been off or messed up. Quality control seems to be up to par. Service is friendly, but nothing to rave about. I would give it another star, but the bathroom is out of order a majority of the time. Big pros: plenty of parking, wi fi is fast read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Studio City, California

Been there two days in a row. Maggie the checker remembered that my client and I were shopping for a home. When we walked up today she smiled " did you find something"? Customer service is rarer and rarer. Thanks, Maggie! read more

I would never turn to Yelp for something as trivial as this but at some point, at least at this location, they've decided not to put any milk out. After several inquiries it's been confirmed that this is deliberate. So now I have to fight the 5-ingredient-latte crowd for a splash of milk in my grande drip? Ridiculous. So here it is, my first and only Yelp review for a giant chain store. I'm slightly embarrassed but it has to be done. read more

I love this starbs location, the staff is extremely friendly and always have good recommendations. Thanks to Joshua he's always so nice and creates a great conversation with customers read more

Great coffees and teas, friendly and courteous barristers, good selection of pastries, sandwiches, and other food items, the free wi-fi an added plus, a nice place to enjoy a cup of coffee. read more

Coffee is life!! This is my favorite Starbucks, the staff is always nice fast, and consistent. I don't want to sounds like a starbucks fanatic, but I stop bye everyday. I usually stick to chain latte. They open very early, and are very convent. read more

Starbucks - My favorite tea. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Studio City, California

My friend and I went inside and waited for over 30 minutes for two drinks and a panini. The store was almost empty and the employees were just leaning on the counters talking for some of the time they were making our drink. They also got one of our drinks wrong and it took them another 15 minutes to make that one drink right in the empty store. Not going there again for a while. read more

I frequent this Starbucks over the location I live by because of the consistent baristas! My co-workers and I visit this Starbucks daily and know that our drink will be made to perfection by Ashley. Her attention to detail and consistency makes her a true gem at what she does!! Thank you for always treating your customers like friends and always having such a fantastic attitude Ashley! read more

Quick service in the evenings. The customer service is beyond expectations. The music is a little loud but if you like jazz then this is your place! I got the chai latte with almond milk. yum. read more

I visit this Starbucks often because it is a 2 minute drive from work. I can place my order, run over, grab my drink and be back at work before anyone even knows I'm gone. Haha. I have also come here with multiple orders from others on my team and they are able to handle large orders efficiently which is probably due in part to their proximity to NBC Uni so lots of shows send their PAs to grab massive orders. They are practiced in such a thing. Handy if you ever need to do a large order. That being said, it can get VERY busy here and it can end up taking a little longer than expected for orders, including mobile orders. I work on weekends and for some strange reason even earlier in the morning on weekends, this place will be busy. It's weird. Does everyone nearby wake up early on weekends and their first thought is "I'm going to Starbucks!"? That's definitely not my first thought on my days off. Or maybe everyone around here works on weekends too. Who knows. I just know I try to avoid the weekend morning rush if possible. This store is one of the bigger stores in the area and that could be because of the bigger crowds it gets so even when it is busy it doesn't feel too cramped, just hectic. read more

I always order through mobile and since covid you have to ask the barista for it. Usually one stands by the pick up and when they see that they ask if you are pick up. It's a hit and miss with whatever baristas are there. Today they just completely ignored me and proceeded to just make walk in drinks. I had to make line to tell the guy I needed my mobile order. This is very poor service! I know they all realized that I was a bit bothered but without any regard just proceeded to act like whatever. I should stick to the morning crew who is way busier and far more attentive it was like 2pm on 12/4/20. read more

Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Studio City, California

I have been to this Starbucks many times and had the worst customer service today. A lady tried to cut me in line, but the cashier staff saw I was in line first. But this staff gave me an attitude like I was the one cut in line and hesitated to take my order before her. Very rude. read more

Every and Natalia are the best!!!(: every Starbucks needs one of these ladies!!! They're awesome and a dope team! Love the vibes! They deserve a raise! They really made my day! read more

This review is going to make me sound like a Starbucks fanatic, and I guess I have to say "guilty as charged", but I tend to go to a Starbucks once a day (even if it's just for a basic iced tea). I've been coming to this location for four years now, and it is my favorite location in the area. Their mistos and bagels fueled many a marathon essay-writing session at their back table as I worked my way through community college, and now they're my go-to spot for iced coffee and summer literature reviews when I'm home on break from college in the Bay area. Almost every barista knows my name, and I have to say that I consider many of them my friends. Special shout-out to Ene, who is always amazing, as is the entire night crew (you all know who you are)! There are Starbucks everywhere, but only one like this... read more

This is a pretty ideal location for working or meeting. It's large with lots of seating options, including outdoor tables. It feels roomy and comfortable, not compact. There is a parking lot. And it's near the highway. Winner all the way around. Also good for dashing in for a hit of coffee - parking lot is easy in, easy out. Friendly staff and well stocked condiments and food case. Excellent version of the chain. read more

This Starbucks is very busy, at least in the morning, so if you are in a big rush might want to order ahead. That being said, their customer service is on point. Specifically Angie, she handles the orders with ease and a smile. I was very impressed by how well she seemed to manage the bar. I was sure she was the manager, but I apparently not! Just really good at her job and a happy. Everyone on staff was very kind and did their jobs well! Honestly best experience at a Starbucks yet. read more

I was out taking care of my health and wellness this morning... Doing a 3 1/2 mile walk... Stopped into the Starbucks for a glass of ice water, and it was complementary. Great start to the day! read more

Welcome to my office. I live right around the corner from this friendly joint, and often do a lot of writing/procrastinating/people-meeting-and-watching here. The staff is really friendly but not aggressively so, and service is top-notch. Last week I accidentally elbowed my salted caramel hot chocolate (a Starbucks highlight) onto the floor and, within five minutes, staff had cleaned up the mess and had brought me a new drink, free of charge. (Not that I suggest you try to game the system by knocking over drinks and getting free ones. These people are good, hard-working people.) My only qualm with this Starbucks, and it is a small and infrequent one, is that it is sometimes visited by homeless and/or disturbed people who occasionally camp out in the restroom with the door locked for half an hour. Homeless Yelpers: I will gladly buy you a coffee or muffin if you would please just let me get into the restroom. read more

Where do I begin. This is a very crowded Starbucks and could very well take up to 10+ minutes to get your beverage. You have food at one end of the counter and drinks at the other heaven forbid they call you at the same time then you're stuck doing this awkward priority dance trying to figure out what to pick up first. The staff is extremely extremely rude. I had my order taken a few times without someone even making eye contact. The last straw was when my boyfriend was ordering and he was greeted with "well what do you want?" We stood at the counter confused and placed our order. Also the pricing is different depending on who takes your order or who is ordering (me vs boyfriend) bringing it up we got "that's what it cost today" I didn't ask why because I didn't want to Be the women at Starbucks that held up the line for 5p cents. I would say give yourself 20 extra minutes to get in and out of here read more

Parking. Lots and lots of parking. Not only is there an abundance of parking at store level, but this particular Starbucks, at the corner of Ventura & Vineland, has UNDERGROUND parking! Underground parking: 1. Cool on hot days 2. Dry on rainy days 3. Almost always empty 4. The escalator conveniently goes directly to Starbucks The store itself is almost always busy, with a reasonably long line, but moves fairly quick. read more

Starbucks - #BestBaristas - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Studio City, California

Love the parking situation. Private lot shared with the rest of the shopping complex---Ralph's, Jamba Juice, Togo's, etc. Decent outdoor seating area. Other than that, like any other typical Starbucks experience :) I'm always going to appreciate the free wi-fi. read more

It's practically impossible not to immediately know a half dozen Starbucks locations off the top of your head. They're like a hydra -- one closes and two more open. That being said, you keep going for the familiarity, and maybe a frappuccino. Overall I'd say service from one Starbuck's to another tends to hold steady at prompt. They know you're either rushing to leave, or rushing to grab a seat from the next asshole who's going to write a screenplay for 3 hours after buying a tall drip. I wouldn't even write a review for Starbucks if this one didn't stick out for being particularly slow. I wouldn't know staffing requirements, but it seems as though this location is consistently understaffed with baristas who seem overwhelmed. And slow. They need to hire or retrain someone fast because I am tired of using half & half when they run out of every other dairy option regularly. read more

A very busy Starbucks. Outdoor seating where people can hang out to smoke. Lots of seating inside too. People come here to hang out, write their screenplay on their laptop - its a great place for people watching. Good stop to grab some coffee before you run into Ralphs or Rite-Aid. One recent morning while running in between appointments I basically did my food shopping for the day - Coffee, blueberry muffin and fruit cup for breakfast. Than a Tarragon chicken sandwich (really high in sodium) and fruit juice to have for lunch. When I arrived the line was out the door - but it moved very quickly with a few Starbucks employees grabbing the food items to keep it moving. If you want to hang out on the weekend, grab a cofee and people watch - this is a good Starbucks for doing that. read more

3 stars and through no fault of Starbucks, its just the vibe of this location- its kind of bustling with a weirdo crew a la Ralph's shopping center clientele. Strange people hitting you up for money outside, strange people just staring at you both in and out of the place, and inside, its not the best feng shui. Plus parking is a BEATCH. I saw an accident as I pulled in. Good thing I was just running in and outta that wacky shack for a free latte on my Starbucks gift card. read more
