The service was the absolute best. I visited this location while killing time for my next appointment and the staff was super! Another customer came in and it was visibly her birthday. They were so welcoming! This is how service should be. I usually get my coffee to go, but the server paid attention that I had time to kill and suggested a mug instead. The presentation was beautiful. I hate I didn't get pictures, but definitely 5 star! read more

To start with it cost more than $9 to park here. This is obviously not a Starbucks but rather a franchise because all of their equipment is old and they were out of everything. read more

Came in for a drink and saw the offering of the Grinch drink, which was a Matcha. So of course I had to try it. I mean, I love the Grinch and I love Matcha so it was a perfect pair and meant to be. Service was quick staff was beyond friendly. Plenty of seating indoors and drink was out quickly. Drink tasted great a bit sweet for my liking, but it was delicious. read more

Starbucks - Cran-merry orange lemonade refresher - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Starbucks located in the lobby of the Hampton Inn / Home2Suites hotel in the Channelside neighborhood. While I was visiting I noticed this Starbucks stayed busy with hotel visitors and locals to the neighborhood alike. On the day I was departing the hotel I stopped by for a coffee and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The coffee was on par with other Starbucks locations. read more

This Starbucks location saved the day. After having a pretty whatever coffee, I was seeking out something decent. Luckily for me, this Starbucks was open in the hotel I was staying at. Moreover, if you're staying at the hotel, you get 10% off, plus the added bonus of being treated as if you're in a regular Starbucks, so you can get points and the like. Anyway, ordered a hot white chocolate mocha to go and it was sheer perfection. The only thing that'd have made it more perfect would've been if they hadn't been out of chocolate croissants, but oh well - that's life for you! read more

This Starbucks is a convenient location in Channelside, across from the crunch gym. It's a easy spot to grab and go for a walk. There's also a great selection of seating and it's not always super busy so you can find a chair to work Staff members were nice. Coffee was good as always no complaints there. read more

Starbucks - Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tampa, Florida

The staff of 4 were more concerned with a 10 minute conversation with one customer (discussing who was petite on the staff) rather than focusing on getting the orders out. Not that busy to have a waits read more

This Starbucks is amazing! I'm visiting from Seattle and I have never seen so many dogs coming in to get a pup cup! It's like therapy in here with all these cute dogs. The staff is knowledgeable and super kind. The owners of the animals that come in to get their pup cups have had the most well behaved dogs! I would totally recommend this place if you're a dog lover or not. 5 star recommendation!!!!! read more

Super friendly staff, decently sized area for sitting as well as an outside area from the connected hotel. Coffee is always perfect!

Starbucks - Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I have to say, I don't write reviews often, but I have been to a lot of Starbucks on this globe, and this location in Tampa, on E. Kennedy's is the BEST, by far. They are so welcoming and work together like a well oiled machine and really get through those long lines without much wait at all! The store is always clean and looks beautiful. Their top-employee would be Michael, as he is the most pleasant, helpful, and cheerful person ever who always goes above and beyond for everyone! I hope Starbucks recognizes and shows their appreciation for his attributes to their business!! He makes us want to go back every day! And if you ever have any issues, Laura is right there to make things right! I cant say enough nice things. Thank you for being so great! read more

This is by far the worst experience I've had at Starbucks. I ordered an Iced matcha with oat milk, 2 pumps brown sugar, 2 pumps vanilla. They were out of oat milk due to supply chain issues which was fine. I switched it out for almond. After the first two sips, I was immediately turned off by the taste. I love matcha, I literally drink it daily. This however was watered down and slightly bitter. I asked the cashier to switch the drink and he said no because I already drank from it. I'm sorry, how else would I know I don't like a drink unless I try it?? He said I can pay for another drink but that's ridiculous considering I barely drank the first one. I ended up getting a Frappuccino which to my surprise was also just as bad. I'm honestly shocked by the short and rudeness of the cashier. read more

Second time coming into this Starbucks. I try to stop in this one over the others downtown. The staff is so kind and my drinks are made quick! I'm writing this review because I tried the Tampa Sunset and it didn't disappoint! It's a great summer tea option! read more

Small, quiet, attached to Hampton Inns. All the handicapped sports were taken by enormous pickup truck with no stickers or disabled plates, super frustrating. Coffee was hot and strong just like my husband likes. I like the free water to drink in the car. Good coffee. Impossible parking. read more

Starbucks - Starbucks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tampa, Florida

First, the staff was welcoming and efficient. My Americano (no extras) was perfectly made. They do charge over $4 for a Venti. My issue is that they use the Hilton Wi-Fi which is less than stellar. The signon page would not open on our Android phones. It works on WIndows but even at that, the signal was only two bars and slow. read more

Horrible, incompetent service. Will not be back. The main barista was very rude. My matcha latte was not blended correctly and the overall taste was disappointing. I took 3 sips of my drink and asked the barista for a refund. He said he couldn't give me a refund because I tried my drink. That is absurd--how can I not get a refund even when my drink order is messed up? I had to pay for another drink; I ordered a caramel ribbon crunch and the consistency and taste wasn't great. This was such a disappointing experience. read more

The WORST starbucks i have ever gone to. We ordered 3 espresso drinks and they all tasted like water. We went back in to ask for some more sweetener and all but one person was friendly. The coffee was lukewarm and none of the employees were wearing masks. Starbucks usually has great customer service but this place was terrible. Whoever the manager is needs to do better. read more

I don't usually write reviews but my experience here has just been really nice. They have always made me top notch drinks and been super friendly. I had some work in the area a couple of weeks ago and had come back to the area for work again. One of the baristas, a super nice girl with green hair, actually remembered me by name which I really appreciated and it made my day. read more

I wandered into this Starbucks because my car was in an auto shop nearby. The service was excellent, particularly the barista Patrick, who was friendly, helpful and made me feel great even when I couldn't quite decide what I wanted and then realized I had left my wallet in the car. Barista's like him make me feel really comfortable in a cafe. I plan to take advantage of the lovely service and relaxed atmosphere again later in the week. read more

They are always out of food items. Don't follow your orders. Rude when you ask a question. Super excited about having this new Starbucks but hate the service:/ read more

I've been eagerly watching the construction and anticipating the opening of this new Starbucks Coffee Shop and the Hampton Inn High Rise Hotel which houses this Starbucks in the north side of Channelside in Downtown Tampa off Kennedy and Meridian next to Kennedy Grand Central, Slade, the Fitzgerald, Crunch, Maloneys, and the Hideaway Sushi bar. While Starbucks Coffee shop is a chain and there is a hipster coffee shop by the name of Ginger Beard Coffee next door inside the Pour House bar, it's always nice to have more options in the immediate area. Nothing says North Channelside has made it like the addition of a Starbucks and a Publix Supermarket that has been talked about for years. After all, who doesn't want to splurge with the new iced cocoa cloud machiato and a double smoked sausage, gouda, and egg sandwich topped with sriracha while listening to classy jazz music with a great view of Downtown? I enjoyed both here! There is ample comfy plush seating indoors to lounge out and study or surf the web or relax with free wifi. On my visit there were 6 patrons in the shop and no line. I was able to order without a wait and got my drink and sandwich in under 5 minutes which was quite ideal! My server was friendly and quick! I wanted to be the first to welcome this Starbucks to the North Channelside neighborhood! I look forward to many more splurges in the days to come! read more

I'd like to express my discontent I felt harassed in this starbucks unwelcome and treated like a second class citizen. First I walked in and asked for a tall coffee the person behind the counter then said do course you would in a very condescending tone. Next I asked for a sleeve because the coffee was hot the told me to bad we don't have any.Then I went to pay and I didn't tip them they told me thanks fat ass. Will never be back. read more

Great location and friendly staff! Stop here often on walks and never fail to impress.

Here are the times for those who are looking. This is a great Starbucks to come get your coffee. They can't accept rewards right now (unfortunately) but they can still use your card and give you points. It's located right near great food places to eat and drink and has lots to offer. Should check it out and the employees are always helpful read more

Starbucks - New times for the store for those who are looking. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Bought 2 protein boxes with the hard boiled eggs. Eggs were rotten which was really gross. Had to drive back and wait on line to be offered a refund. I feel like if you bite into rotten food and then have to drive back to the location and wait on line...you should probably be offered a little more than a refund. Oh well, that's Starbucks for ya. read more

Staff was unfriendly, the drinks were terrible. I spent 5$ on something I couldn't even drink because it was so bad.

I've been here twice, and each time my drink has been wrong, when it's marked correctly on the cup. Each time I seem to have someone at the register who also can't find buttons or has a hard time just ringing the order in for one drink. If you are looking for efficiency and accuracy, god forbid you are in a rush, I definitely wouldn't come here. The staff are super nice, they just need to actually do the job correctly and this place would be great. Might need to improve training. read more

We stopped by the Channelside District Starbucks today on Kennedy, places our simple order (just ice teas) and they served 8 customers who care after us their orders (more complicated drinks). We asked to be refunded, no one apologize or cared & we left. Very disappointed! Willing to spend not easily earned money & completely disregarded! Wish I could give no stars! read more

This is not the first time this has happened, online it states this stores closes at 8pm. I walked in tonight with my boyfriend at 5:59 to get tea and the employees say "we are actually closing" I understand business may be slow but this is the second time this has happened. What's the point of having a convenient Starbucks downstairs from my apartment if they are closing by the time I'm getting off work. It didn't help that I was getting tea because I wasn't feeling well and didn't want to have to go to the store. This store has a lot of work to do because not only are they closing early, I wanted to try these bantam bagels everyone is raving about. Not knowing how many come in an order I asked for two orders and a coffee, I get charged about $12 and I only get two single bagels. My friend later tells me that I got ripped off because I should have gotten 4 total. Not impressed Starbucks, not impressed at all. read more

The egg white bites are an absolute must have. My friend Lauren, who has a 10/10 body, was the one who suggested them. Anytime I have a suggested food item from someone who is in good shape I have to try it. The combination of egg whites, peppers, and seasoning cooked to perfection created a party in my mouth. I washed it down with a caramel macchiato and break danced home. read more

Not only got my order wrong once and had to pay for their mistake, but got home and realized they got my order wrong again. Bad management and bad service. Better off going to the drive through Starbucks on Kennedy. read more
