    Pink Drink and Pug

    I have to hand it to the Laurel - Riverside Starbucks in Valley Village. Friendly baristas, great service, always a space in the parking lot, pup cups, clean restroom, and great air-conditioning! What more can you ask for?

    So, Starbucks still has a crappy reputation as a company however out of convenience I came into this location a while back. I met Alex and Kenie, who have turned around my entire experience for this store and brand. I'm now a regular at this location because of the two of them. They contribute amazing friendly energy to my day. I've seen that other customers feel the same way. You can get drinks everywhere but it's the connection with the people that can elevate an experience and brighten your day. I really really hope the owner understands the importance and value they bring to this business. Thanks guys!

    I stopped by this Starbucks today to get a drink. I parked across the street because there was more parking there. This Starbucks is in a lot with limited parking spots but if you come early, you should get a spot. When I came, they were not busy so I was able to put in my grande Mango Dragonfruit with light ice. When my drink was ready, one of the older barista just put it on the pick up counter but didn't say the name. So if you weren't paying attention then your drink will just sit there until you check. My drink was good and beside one of worker not calling out the name when my drink was ready, I had a good experience.

    Honestly, no Starbucks location deserves a higher rating than this one. I often come here with my little son, and I always receive excellent treatment from everyone. But the main reason I really wanted to leave the most positive review is because of Alex!!! -- the guy who works here. I don't know who needs to see this, but he truly deserves an award for being one of the best Starbucks employees and get the best promotion. He consistently goes above and beyond to treat customers with respect and kindness.

    What a Starbucks! My go-to spot. My neighborhood Starbucks. Everyone is nice here. The staff is friendly and I enjoy seeing all the dogs that come in and out of this patio. The food is satisfactory... I don't love eating at Starbucks but I do enjoy a cheese stick every now and then. It's a close walk from my house, I like coming here it's usually not very crowded. Like I said, good dog sight seeing :) You can't go wrong with Starbucks!

    Most of the time this store is busy. Line goes to the door and it is slow. No drive thru. Bathroom isn't kept well. Parking is limited and it gets chaotic at times. If you don't mind the walk, park at Gelson's. Small one. Located at the corner of Laurel Canyon and Riverside. In a strip mall together with Subway, Nail Salon, Tmobile and etc.

    Stopped in here to use the restroom. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. I bought a water and a pastry. Good experience, not crowded on the weekend and I think there's parking behind the shop? We parked on the street to be speedy. Thanks for being there for us Starbucks!

    This particular location is a busy one, no doubt, but the staff usually works well together pumping out food and drinks in quick fashion. This Starbucks appears to maintain the same staff which is always helpful instead of always having high turnover. For as busy as this location is, the staff manages to maintain the cleanliness. I appreciate when they have an expeditor at the front door assisting customers as they come in with their mobile drink orders. It ensures customers aren't picking up food and drinks that aren't theirs and either walking off with them or placing them back down after they have touched them. This Starbucks is located in a strip shopping center that has shared parking with Subway, UPS Store, State Farm, nail salon, etc. Sometimes finding parking is difficult. There is some street parking available if the parking lot is full.

    Nice small Starbucks at the corner of Laurel Canyon Blvd. and Riverside with friendly atmosphere with professional staff serving decent coffee and other beverages. They have lots of pastries and other stuff that I like. We ordered Americano with Oatley milk. They have a piping hot coffee but not enough of Oatley milk. I went to see if they had self service at the counter! Unfortunately they had no self service counter. Therefore only four stars.

    Love this!

It was 7:58 a.m., and I stopped in to grab my usual coffee before my appointment next door. I accidentally left my wallet at home, my Apple Pay wasn't working, and the only cash I had was a $100 bill. My total was only $8.50. I even offered a simple solution--I asked if another employee could pay for my coffee and I would immediately Zelle them the money. All three employees told me that was "beyond their job duties" and refused to help. Instead, they pointed to the sign stating they don't accept $100 bills and had me leave without making any effort to accommodate a regular customer. The disappointing part isn't that they couldn't break a $100 bill--it's that no one showed even the slightest willingness to help find a solution. I come here almost every Friday because I have appointments at the salon next door, and after this experience, I'll be taking my business elsewhere. A little kindness and customer service go a long way. Unfortunately, I found neither here.

My husband and I came on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't busy at all, although almost all the pastries were already sold out, so I'm guessing the real rush is in the mornings. Overall, I personally wasn't a fan, mainly because the drinks and most of the food felt pretty underwhelming and lacked flavor. I ordered the strawberry matcha and it was honestly the most bland matcha I've had, which is surprising considering there was strawberry puree in it. It didn't taste low quality, just very muted and not something I'd order again, especially since I get matcha (and strawberry matcha) pretty often elsewhere. My husband got the pistachio latte and liked it, but mentioned it leaned a bit too sweet for his taste. For food, we tried the breakfast bagel and I genuinely can't believe how bland it was. It had all the components you'd expect, everything bagel, eggs, cheese, aioli, bacon, and more, but somehow it just fell flat. I kept wanting to add salt or some kind of sauce to bring it to life. I actually stopped eating it because it didn't feel worth it to keep going for something so flavorless. The one highlight was the spinach quiche. I really enjoyed it and would come back for that specifically, although it did feel a little pricey for what it was. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back, but if someone else wanted to go, I wouldn't object.

Actually, all of their employees. Place was packed. Wanted to see and know the sizes of the cups for me to decide which one to go with and the price difference. I went with a medium size hot decaf (one shot) Vanilla Latte with Macadamia Milk. Also got a Blueberry Muffin and a plain butter Croissant. I thought that they would also have some breakfast items like egg, bacon, sausage, cheese etc..they didn't. They only had plain bagel and Cream Cheese. My Latte tasted very good, on the flip side the Croissant wasn't as warm and fresh as I wanted for it to be. I asked the ladies behind the counter to warm it up again. The muffin was very fresh and delicious. Lauren handed me the Latte and my goodies. I don't want to dock a star for the Croissant, but it could have been a lot more fresh. Place was clean, with one gender neutral restroom, inside and outside seating, and the price was right for the 3 items that I got. $14.00 in total plus my tip of $2.00. Street parking only, woman owned, beautiful art work on their walls by famous artists, merchandise for sale, and nice music from the 80's playing overhead.

My go-to drinks are the Caramel Royale and the Vanilla Rose Latte over ice. Both are flavorful, well-balanced, and never overly sweet. I also appreciate that they offer a variety of milk options, including 2%, which isn't always easy to find at other coffee shops.. Overall, this place delivers on quality, affordability, and customer service. If you're looking for great coffee without the premium price tag, I highly recommend stopping by. I'll definitely keep coming back! Thank you guys!
