    Lavender matcha
    Terri M.

    We were waiting in the drivethough for 20 minutes and literlly only moved 1 car length. So we went in to order, thinking maybe it would be faster. There was 2 or 3 people making drinks.... no "move with a purpose" with the employees. We ordered 2 drinks and was about a half hour wait. So if you want a quick drink, .... like others have mentioned.... don't come here unless you wanna wait an hour for a basic drink.

    There was a woman employee that was on drive through the other day, she has curly/wavy dark hair, she was very rude and passive aggressive, no thank you at the end just gave me my drink and closed the window on me right away. Also look at these cups they're giving out now, super low quality and you can't even drink from them with a flat lid like that, makes your coffee drinking experience unpleasant and not enjoyable. The employee told me these would be their new cups from now on, a bit rude I should say as well. Starbucks

    Starbucks Riverside & Hwy1 Watsonville CA Sat 2/5/22 © I'm stopping by here to tell you that all Starbucks's are not created equal. Some locations are great and others not so much. Let me give you a reason for why this one is your five-star place! Are you looking for your usuals to be prepared right? Are you willing to take a gamble on your cup a Joe? Or you'd rather know what to expect? Sure, it depends on a shift & your barista a lot. Came here for my Espresso Macchiato. And let me tell you. I've had it done in million messy ways before - this here is a legit one! There're no surprises, your coffee comes with a "long shot" just the way you ordered it. Venti cup, extra milk foam. I can tell by the weight of the cup, if it's made right. No caramels or syrups making it overly sweet. Here I am, one happy guy, on Saturday afternoon in February, sipping my coffee and thinking that the world is a good place, after all! Yeah I want it to work in a simple way: I place my mobile order, I get what I expect. Espresso Macchiato + Kale & Mushroom Sous Vide Egg Bites! They are fluffy and savory satisfying and they hit the spot. Inside the store is spacious, bright, and clean. Face masks are worn, it feels safe. There's an outside patio as well, it's nice to have that option. This is also a drive-through location, therefore there could be a bit of a wait, as employees are busy making drive-through orders as well as fulfilling yours. I respect their hard work. I finished my coffee, ate my egg bites, and got a refill. Happy, no complaints! There's Hampton Inn right next door and AmPm Convenience and fuel station by ARCO. The entire complex is relatively new, thus it gives you a good brand new vibe! Super close to the shores of Monterey Bay, Sunset State Beach and Pajaro Dunes. Enjoy! *Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh If you got the notion I second that emotion Review #686 posted with 5 pictures on February 6, 2022 Espresso Macchiato Single shot 10 Calories Whole Milk Extra Milk Foam Blonde Espresso Long Shot Venti Cup Delicious chopped kale & portabella mushrooms delicately folded into cage-free eggs with Monterey Jack cheese and cooked using the French "Sous vide" technique to create a velvety texture bursting with flavor. 230 calories, 1g sugar, 14g fat.

    new grande cup
    Kirsten C.

    i like going to this starbucks because it is closest to my house and they tend to get my drinks correct... HOWEVER. the new cups are ridiculous. especially if i have to wait an entire hour in the drive thru. and the store is horrendously understaffed. i placed an order at 8:23 and didn't receive it until 9:42 pm. usually if drive thru is that bad i will get out of my car and go inside but there's no where to go once trapped and you're stuck in the line. i had TWO cars in front of me yet waited over an hour just to get to the ordering screen not even the window. by the time i got my drinks in the new cups, the cups are already falling apart and soggy. and the lids are weird. if you order a refresher you can't drink it cause of the inclusions. i think the staff is really sweet and i appreciate their effort but the cups and wait times bc starbucks won't hire adequate staff is a bit ridiculous. please bring back the plastic cups if not going to hire more people. there should be more than 2 people working the night rush and i should be able to drink my overly priced drink :(

    Extremely slow and disorganized. They shouldn't have opened a new Starbucks here without the staff and ability to manage it.

    Employees taking the order and at window always have a bad attitude. They need to train these people with better customer service.

    The staff is friendly and helpful with suggestions i love the matcha and the cookie very delicious…read moreeveryone must try!! the place is also very clean and well maintained

    I was across the street at the library and ready for coffee so my sister said let's go across the…read morestreet. I walked in and the first thing that caught my eye was the multiple menus. It was so much to read and the cashier was ready to take our order. She was patient and didn't rush us but it gave me zero time to really look at the menu. It was early so I wanted a breakfast sandwich or burrito. I opted for a sausage burrito after receiving the recommendation from the cashier. She also showed me the seasonal coffee offerings that she didn't show to my sister who ordered ahead of me and she was bummed because she would of preferred to get one of those drinks instead of the latte she got. I opted for the toasted coconut coffee. I paid and quickly browsed the baked goods that I could see someone starting to put up on display. The rice crispy looked delicious so we got one to share. We took a seat in the seating area. There were plenty of tables and plenty of people coming and going. Seems to be the spot for all the workers within walking distance. Our coffee orders came out a while later. The latte was your standard coffee and oat milk. The toasted coconut was a sweet blend of coffee and coconut foam. The top had toasted coconut shavings and once that mix with the coffee it's gives it's a different texture while drinking it. It was too sweet for my liking. The burritos came out after and they were piping hot. Took a while for the burrito to cool down so I ended up cutting it in half. I like that they had the grill marks on the tortilla because it gave it a nice crunch. The burrito was paired with a salsa that was not spicy and gave the entire burrito some flavor. The burrito itself is very mild in flavor. The potato's didn't taste like they had any seasoning. The sausage didn't either. The salsa helped but it wasn't very flavorful. It was a good portion because I only ate half and was full. The rice krispy treat was good and not very sweet so we took 2 more to go. The cashier was helpful and patient during my interaction with her. The space has plenty of places to sit with a group. Plenty of baked goods options. I took a photo of the menu for future visits so I can know ahead of time what I want because it was very overwhelming being next in line and pick whatever. I saw a pesto sandwich that I would have preferred getting after I sat down and read the menu. Would have been helpful to have the seasonal coffee menu in a more visible area. Water is self serve in an area where you can get straws and napkins. Ensuring it's stocked with knives and forks etc would be helpful. The coffee and food did take a while to come out so plan accordingly if you are not sitting down. Curious to return to try something else now that I read the menu.
